Welcome to the Winter-Spring Dance Season at SLPR!
Welcome to our 21st Winter-Spring Season of Dance at SLPR!
We are excited to see dancers leaping, twirling, and dancing to the beat this season. Our dancers will be dancing in person this season at our dance studio, located at 404 Ellen Street, inside the World of Wonder building.
We are very excited for this season – and for our Annual Spring Dance Recital. The SLPR Spring Dance Recital is scheduled for Saturday, May 10. The dress rehearsal is scheduled for Friday, May 9. For dancers to participate in the spring recital, we do ask for them to be to enrolled in both sessions. If a student registers for only session 2, recital participation is not guaranteed and depends on costume availability and the class.
Costume and Recital fees are due by: February 11, 2025.
The Ellen Street Building doors are locked until all childcare is released at 6pm. For classes that begin before 6pm, we will pick up dancers at the gymnasium door entrance and bring them back to parents at the end of class. For classes that begin after 6pm, please bring your dancer inside to the dance studio door and pick them up inside at the dance studio door.
We are looking forward to a wonderful winter-spring dance season: making memories, having fun, dancing and learning new skills!
