“A place to Dance and Dream”

Dear Dancers & Families,

A huge thank you to everyone for a fabulous 2013-2014 dance season and amazing spring dance recitals! We are busy gearing up for the next season and are very excited for another fabulous year of dance surrounded by all of our talented dancers and their families. I am always amazed by the hard work, dedication, and support we receive from our families and dancers. All of the staff here at Dance Etc… share a love for teaching and are passionate about our dancers. It is our mission to bring the best dance education in the area, so our students may have the tools to dance throughout their lives whether it is professionally, for recreational enjoyment, or perhaps to teach the art of dance one day. We are training these dancers to be athletes in life, as they are learning lessons about work ethic, their amazing abilities and talents that even surprise themselves.

I thank you again… for all of your support and for allowing us to teach your children. I look forward to an amazing year and many future years together.

Love, Miss Anna
