The staff has started to prepare for the June recital. Our theme this year is “Dancing thru the Decades.” Please put the date on your calendar; Saturday June 15th. Students are attending the Associated Dance Teachers of NJ workshop November 5th. We are excited to attend and learn new skills from Master Teachers.
