SLDA is a proud sponsor of the Witches of Cottage Grove. We provide a rehearsal space so they can be ready for their upcoming fall performances.

Peep this little guy is gracing the top of a broom and sitting in our lobby as he waits for the rehearsal to begin.

A reminder - if you need to pick up your dancer from class early - please let the office person know and have them pull your dancer from class vs entering the studio. That helps keep the distractions down for the teacher and students. This has happened a few times this week and figured a reminder was helpful. Thank you!

We are a week into classes and things are starting to get ironed out. Dancers are moving classes, new students are joining classes, people are figuring out what attire and shoes they need, many are learning how to do their own bun for ballet class....it's been a great week.

Thank you all for being patient and helpful as I've been in and out this week (and will be for a bit longer). With my own kids being professional performers, sometimes it means driving last minute to see them or waiting at the airport to hear if they are going onstage and I want to see if I can!

Thank again!

For those who registered this weekend for dance classes… Don’t worry! I’ll be back in the office today and send out invoices. I needed some time away from the computer this weekend. All registrations are timestamped and I’ll get to them in order this afternoon when I’m ready to be back at a computer

Thanks for understanding my need to sometimes step away

Pro tip - A director will cast you in a show over another dancer / actor even if you aren't as skilled, simply because you are easier to work with.

Let's be both! Easy to work with AND skilled.

I'm ready for the dance year to begin so we can start working. Who else is?!?
