Costume note

I will be ordering costumes for the recital, as such each girl will be measured in class over the next couple of weeks. If you are planning on participating in the recital but won’t be in class please let me know so I can get your measurements another time. Fees for costumes will be due by September 17^th, I will need to get the order’s in no later than the 19th in order for them to arrive before the Christmas recital. The costumes will be used for the Christmas and Spring recital so this is a one time fee. Academy A and B will be ordering Lyrical costumes in the spring but their price will only be about $20.00. If you have questions or need to set up a payment plan please let me know…after this there shouldn’t be any other fees until the recital fee!

Thanks: Brittani

Academy of Dance Disney 2010

Well as a dance teacher you spend so much time working towards your recital, there are countless hours spent in the studio, and behind the scenes working to make sure that your girls are ready and that everything goes smooth. As a dance teacher it was definitely pay-day! I want to let all the girls and parents know how proud I am of each and every one of the girls. They looked beautiful and they danced incredible, I couldn't have been more excited for them to have the opportunity to show off all of their hard work. I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with each and every girl, and feel so lucky to have such supportive and involved parents, it truly means more then you will every know!

Picture Day Info

Picture Day is scheduled for Friday April 30^th; please see the schedule below for picture times. We tried to work the schedule out to accommodate multiple dancer families the best we could, but we do realize that some families will have some time between pictures; we apologize and appreciate your understanding.

-Due to inclement weather we will relocate the pictures back to “Academy of Dance” studio. Please check the blog www.academyofdance01.blogspot.com around 2:30 if the weather is bad to see if the location has changed, or call me on my cell. 801-842-9900

-We will be having pictures at “The Cove” at Herriman Springs. The Cove at Herriman Springs is located at: 7200 W. 14200 S. – Herriman From Bangerter Hwy drive 5.5 mi west until you reach 13400 S.

-Please arrive 15 minutes prior to your daughter’s picture time. This will allow “Pink Daffodil” to get each girl registered, and will ensure that we keep to the schedule! We will have registrations forms available at the pictures but if you would like to pay early please drop your registration off to Academy of Dance but be sure that all checks are made out directly to “Pink Daffodil”

-Hair and make-up: Please have the girls in some make-up to brighten up faces but not quite as bold as stage make-up. For hair please do their hair the way that suits them best, we want them to look their very best and feel confident for their pictures!
