LESSONS & PERFORMING
Studio 38 averages 4-5 meetings per month throughout the school year. Not all of our work with our recreational dancers is in the classroom studios as we believe dancers need to practice and perform what they are learning. On occasion we have 4 lessons along with one public show and the next month 3 classes with 2 shows. Each month varies, but at Studio 38 we consider a show a
s a lesson for your child. Public shows during the holidays, sports activity games, festivals, and college half time shows will give your child the opportunity to develop self-esteem and poise by performing before a live audience as well as enjoying the applause, which rewards their hard work. COSTUMES
At Studio 38 we pride ourselves on the thousands of costumes we maintain for dancers. Yearly our dancers wear anywhere from $1,000 to $1,500 worth of costumes for a low rental fee. Each year, the costume fees are used to purchasing new sets of costumes, props, accessories, etc. In many public shows we do per school year (usually 5-7 shows) dancers wear gorgeous costumes giving parents and family the opportunity to photograph and video the many looks of their dancers. COMPETITION
Over the past years we have entered our competitive team into Regional competitions in Billings and the surrounding areas. We have taken dancers to Las Vegas and Lake Tahoe, Nevada to the Dance Nationals and Silverwood to perform at the main entrance followed by a weekend of fun! The experience your child has is in the memory for a lifetime and we feel exposure of this nature can only add to your child's dance background. ANNUAL SPRING RECITAL
Our many performances lead up to our large and colorful recital end of April. This recital is an accumulation of all the dance work your child has learned during the year. Our recital is open to the public. A gate fee is charged for admission. At our recital, your child is presented with a large rosette dance ribbon or trophy for their year or years in dance with Studio 38. OWNER & DIRECTOR
