Pre-Register for our 2013-14 School Year!

April 29th, 2013

Dear Parents,

Each year we offer our current students the opportunity to pre-register for dance classes for the
following school year. We feel it is important to give you the first opportunity to register for your
current class* before we begin accepting dancers from other studios.

It’s easy… Just fill out the form below, and pay your $15 Registration Fee per student before May
31st, and we will save your dancer’s place in the current class for the 2013-14 school year. Your
dancer’s place in class will not be held without the Registration Fee. Beginning June 1st, we will
accept registration from new students. As of now, you can assume that your current class will remain
on the same day and generally the same time (within an hour). If, for some reason, we need to change
your class day, we will contact you to be sure that the change will be possible in your schedule.

*Each class progresses from one year to the next. By registering for your current class you are not
holding back your dancer to repeat a year, you are assuring that she / he will continue to progress with
her / his classmates. We cannot guarantee that the entire class will consist of the same dancers, as not
everyone will remember to pre-register and some children may need to switch days / times due to
scheduling conflicts.

Please return the form below, along with your Registration Fee of $15 per student, to Premier
Dance Academy, by May 31st.

Why Should I Practice My Dances At Home?

January 28th, 2013

Good question! We’ve all heard the expression “practice makes perfect”, but that’s not really a reasonable expectation. So, why SHOULD you practice? Here’s a few good reasons:

1) You will learn more of your dance each week if you have practiced between classes. Your dance teacher will not need to spend as much time reviewing with the class if you have practiced at home. If your teacher has to re-teach everything from the week before because dancers didn’t practice, it takes longer, and you miss out on time that could be spent learning more!

2) You will enjoy your dance even more if you feel confident and know what you are doing. It can be nerve-wracking to not know the order of your dance steps and to be feeling like you need to rely on another dancer to get you through the dance. Confident dancers make happy dancers! We all want to see happy dancers on stage in the recital. Practicing your dance at home will build the self-confidence you need to be happy and proud, making for a great performance.

3) Practicing at home allows you to find out which parts of the dance you might need help. Sometimes in class, we watch other dancers and don’t even realize that we haven’t really learned it for ourselves. When you practice at home, you might get stuck on a particular step – make note of that step (mentally or on a piece of paper) and ask your teacher or a classmate for help with it the next time you come to the studio.

4) Your mom and dad spent the money on class and took the time to drive you to and from class. If they are willing to do that, I’m sure they would love to see you look the best you can on stage! That takes practice – in and out of class.

It only takes a few minutes each day to practice. My mom used to play my dance music after dinner each night so I could review. That’s about 3 minutes per dance a day (so 15 minutes tops, for our oldest dancers). Not bad. Bring in a blank CD with your name on it, or bring $2.00 and we’ll give you a blank CD – we’ll put your music on your CD (exactly the way your teacher plays it – same version, same length, same speed…) and you can practice at home until your heart is content!

So, Dance Away!

Premier’s Winter Weather Policy

December 17th, 2012

Premier Dance Academy will always close if Madison Schools close DUE TO THE WEATHER.

However, there are times when the weather will be getting worse throughout the evening, in which case we may choose to cancel classes (even though schools may remain open).

We will do our best to contact you, but will also leave a recorded message at the studio, as well as posting a message on our website (click on “Blog”) and on our facebook page.

As always, it is your choice as to whether or not you want to drive to the studio in bad weather. We understand if you choose to stay home even if we remain open.
