All students have the opportunity to perform at the end of every term.
Why?
Confidence! Achieving a goal whilst overcoming your fears, showing off your talent and being a part of a positive electric group of people is something to be embraced. Confidence does not appear by performing just once a year - it's a result of doing something over and over 1. again. Therefore performing regularly is the key to receiving confidence and it is this confidence that overflows into every area of your life.
The fun factor! Performances aren't just about dancing on stage; it's about the whole experience: It's about practicing, visualising, being creative when dressing up, getting together with other dance members in the dressing room and sharing the excitement, soaking in the electric energy, being backstage filled with enthusiasm ready to burst out on the stage, expressing yourself in the moment on the stage, showcasing your unique style and talent, going back stage and screaming out YESSSSS I DID IT! The exhilaration, the satisfaction and the sheer joy is priceless. That's why we perform. It's a memory that will always stand out in your mind forever.
The performances are beneficial not only for students, but also for parents. The proud smile on your face as a parent, seeing your child on stage, pushing through the barriers of self-doubt and fear to coming alive with confidence, expression and acceptance is a remarkable experience. The feeling is something that reminds you of why you are a parent - to see your child grow - breaking free from a cocoon and emerging into a beautiful butterfly filled with confidence and beauty is something you want to treasure.

Where?
We aim to provide variety when it comes to venues. Why? Students do not improve confidence by performing in the same environment over and over again - it's a result of experiencing different stages, venues and audiences. Therefore we source a different venue every term, where possible. Some are community venues, like shopping centres, and others are private venues, where tickets will need to be purchased (kept at a minimum where possible). Plenty of notice will be given of when and where these performances will take place.
|
How?
Each term, newsletters are sent home with the students to inform parents of coming events. They will contain all the details you need to know.
|
When?
See the Noticeboard page on this website for more details
|
Is it compulsory?
Absolutely not. However because the performances are so beneficial to self-esteem and having fun - 99% of students are always eager to perform. Students need something to look forward to and aim for - performances give you motivation to attend dance classes with enthusiasm and confidence. Everyone needs a reason to do something - performances is one reason to practice dance.
