A letter to our Dance Mums/Dads/Guardians…
When you send your little people to dance class; you’re investing in their future! ✨
You’re trusting in the school and the people behind it.
Those people invest their time and energy and skills into ensuring your little people get the best possible experience.
It’s about so much more than dance itself.
No we don’t just show up to dance class with our music ready to go, and no, we aren’t “money grabbers”.
We’re passionate beyond belief and we have to be to stick it out because it isn’t always easy!
We put ourselves under pressure to be the best for you and there are times when that pressure feels too much.
We have high standards and we want nothing but the best for you and your littles.
Why?
Because we know that dance plays a HUGE part in childhood.
Your kids will be making memories that will last a lifetime.
They will find friendships that will remain strong into adulthood.
They’re learning to be resilient.
Dance improves their confidence.
They are learning the importance of commitment and showing up - because if we don’t show up, we let others down but we let ourselves down too.
Quite often, your dance teachers are the hidden heroes of society.
Bold claim I know, but hear me out…
My dance teacher was a massive role model to me growing up.
She was a source of inspiration.
I looked up to her.
Attending dance class made me believe that I could do anything I put my mind to.
It made me realise that I wanted to make a positive impact on others.
It helped me escape reality for a little while and as a teenager especially, I often needed that space.
It made me see what I was capable of and it brought me out of my shy little shell.
I’m forever thankful to my parents for all they probably had to sacrifice to afford to send my sisters and I to dance classes.
God we know it isn’t a cheap hobby, but it’s our livelihoods and we value how valuable we are. We value ourselves and we want your kids to value themselves too.
Our venues can’t pay for themselves, nor can the team we employ or the regular training we provide and the endless insurances and licenses we have to pay.
We would love to be able to pay our bills with fresh air but we can’t.
Please know that you’re giving your kids an amazing head start by instilling so many more life skills into them than you can probably imagine.
For us to give our best, we have to be our best.
So by investing in your local dance school, you aren’t actually investing in the school itself; you’re investing in your child’s future and that looks pretty bright!! 🌈✨
Thank you sincerely,
