Feeling extra thankful this Thanksgiving 🧡

I want to extend a special thanks to my friends and family who have been helping get the new studio space ready. This new building has been a huge undertaking and I'm so grateful for everyone's support, encouragement, and time spent helping.

I also want to say thank you to our teachers, studio members and our whole Bend community. Thank you for your support and for being with us this season as we celebrate five years and make the move to our new space.

I had been looking for a new home for Bend for quite a while before I found our new space. It was worth the wait and it'll be worth the work for how much our Bend community will enjoy and benefit from the new space for many years to come. Exciting times ahead!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

- Ms. Mel

The first week of the 2026-2027 season got off to a great start! 🩷 It feels awesome to be back to classes!

This past week we welcomed lots of new Bend friends and got to start some students, like this cutie pictured, in their first dance classes ever! We also always love reconnecting with our returning students, catching up, and looking forward to what's coming this season!
