Every Spring we offer a performance in which our students may show their accomplishments.
THE GRANDE FINALE is an informal demonstration performed at a local auditorium. Jazz & Tap levels 4 & 5, Ballet 6, ASB Dance Company, and Advanced Pointe classes will perform in two shows {if two shows are held}. All other classes will be assigned to one show. Kinderdance classes will have an In-Studio performance on a Spring date to be announced. Rhythm & Movement, Adult/Teen Stretch & Strengthen, and Adult/Teen Ballet classes do not participate in a performance.
Please note, while it is not a requirement to perform in The Grande Finale, we MUST KNOW your intentions no later than December 1st for students in classes purchasing costumes or by Jan. 15th for all ballet students, so we can choreograph for each class accordingly. Regrets Only please, given in writing. Otherwise we will assume you are performing.
ALL KINDERDANCE, PRIMARY DANCE 1, 2, 3, AND BALLET STUDENTS (except for Advanced Pointe Class) wear their class uniform as a costume for performance, with a special Headpiece/ Belt. A Recital Headpiece / Belt charge will be added into the February tuition invoices.
STUDENTS IN JAZZ, TAP, LYRICAL, MODERN, CONTEMPORARY, ADV. POINTE, PARENT/CHILD RECITAL DANCE -
Costumes are purchased ready-made and a costume deposit of $80 per costume is due by November 10. After costumes have been ordered (December 12) there are NO REFUNDS or CANCELLATIONS. We try to stay within the budget, but prices may rise each year. Any costume balances (if costume goes over the deposit amount) must be paid by February 10.
