Important Notice

Watching Days – Please Read

Watching Days are a chance to quietly observe a regular class—not a performance. We kindly ask that you bring just one guest per child to help maintain a calm environment.

Please avoid bringing children under 4 (including babies), and ensure older siblings can sit quietly throughout.

Some students may feel shy dancing in front of others—thank you for helping us keep the space supportive and focused.

You’re welcome to film or take photos to share privately with family, but please don’t post on social media.

Dates may change—please check emails and the Parent Portal for updates. For camps and workshops, early booking is recommended as spaces fill fast.

Any questions? We’re here to help.
