NOVEMBER NEWS LETTER

Thanks to all that registered we so excited to start dance class!!! Thanks so much for putting your trust in us and helping us get this business up and running.

These first couple of months your dancer will be introduced to the basics of dance and learn proper dance technique to prepare them for more advanced skills. We will also be putting dance steps to music to help your dancer learn rhythm and musicality.

THERE WILL BE NO DANCE ON WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 23 FOR THANKSGIVING BREAK. Classes will resume as normal the following week.


Proper dance attire
I failed to go into detail on proper dance attire in the policy and rules. Dancers will need to come to class in something they can easily move in Jeans are not to be worn to dance. Leos, gym shorts, sweat pants, spandex shorts, jazz pants tank tops, baby doll shirts or t- shirts are all examples of proper dance attire for class. If your dancer has ballet, jazz, or tap shoes please have them bring those if not please bring some socks until we can get shoes ordered. Also please make sure that your dancer has their hair pulled up and out of their face. Below is a list of some websites where you can purchase dance supplies. We will be ordering shoes and supplies through the studio as soon as we can. Please have your dancer bring a water bottle to class each week.

A little bit about me
My name is Cori Taylor I grew up in Safford Az. I began dancing when I was 10 at Footloose Dance Studio and instantly feel in love with dancing. I began assistant teaching at the age of 12 and at 16 I was one of the head instructor at the studio and teaching 8 classes a week. I have taught and been trained in ballet, tap, pom, lyrical, contemporary, hip hop, and Jazz. I was also on the Safford High School dance team from my freshmen to senior year where I was co captain my Jr. year and captain my senior year. I also coached a pom line at a local high school for a year. I graduated from Eastern Az college with my 2 year degree in Business. While in college I continued to teach dance and I also worked as a kindergarten aide for Thatcher primary school. Also while in college I met the love of my life and we were married in March of 2006. In June of 2007 we were blessed with our sweet baby girl which is when I chose to take some time off from dance and work and focus on our family. We now have 3 beautiful childern 1 girl and 2 boys and life is crazy at times but I would not have it any other way we are truly blessed. We recently started this new adventure in our lives which has lead us here to Ajo and opening up a Studio with Rachel French. Dance to me has always been a way to express how I feel with out saying a word through the art of music and movement. I have always wanted to open up my own studio or start teaching again so I am so excited for this opportunity to instill the love, passion and joy I have for dance in your sweet dancers.

REMEMBER NO DANCE CLASS ON NOVEMBER 23. HOPE YOU AND YOUR FAMILY HAVE A VERY HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!
