November Newletter

Hello Everyone,
I hope this finds you and your families well and looking forward to Thanksgiving. With the holiday season is upon us, I just want to say thanks to all of you for the blessings that you bring to my life. I enjoy teaching your children and I am so thankful each of them! Please take the time to read this newsletter carefully as it contains important information for the coming weeks. If you did not receive this newsletter via email, please let me know asap so I can update your contact info. Also, as previously posted, I will no longer be printing out my newsletters. You will receive it via email and I will post it here so you can refer back to it anytime.

Food Drive: I am so happy about the response I have gotten regarding the Dancing for Christmas Dinner Food Drive! I am thrilled to announce that there will be 15 dance studios/gyms helping me collect canned goods to donate. I will be posting a finalized list of all the locations that you can bring your donations to. Thanks for the support!

Advertisements: With the holidays just around the corner, I would like to extend an invitation to anyone who would like to advertise in the Dec newsletter. (Dec newsletters will be emailed by 12/05/08) Whether it be items to purchase, dining & shopping suggestions, or a regular business advertisement - anything that will help to make the holidays go a little more smoothly or help you get your business name out around the valley! Please email me your advertisement along with contact info NO LATER THAN 12/01/08. I have over 200 students across the valley, so this is a great way to let people know about your business so please take advantage of this great opportunity to reach future costumers!!!

Christmas Recitals: If your dancer is one of my classes at USA Youth Fitness or AZ Desert Dance your Christmas recital will be held on Sat. Dec 20th at the Queen Creek Performing Art Center. Tickets are now on sale. If your dancer is in one of my classes at Jeanne’s School of Dance in Chandler, Mesa, or Queen Creek or Higher Ground Dance studio then you will not have a Christmas recital. Instead you will have an in class performance. (See below)

Holiday In-Class Performances: Your dancer is now learning a Christmas dance to perform for you in class at our Holiday Party! Visitors including parents, siblings, extended family and friends are invited to attend your dancer’s class the last week of classes before the holiday break. Please be on the look-out for emails and notes about what your dancer will be wearing and other important details. Treats to share at the end of class are welcome. Please remember that everything needs to be individually wrapped and I will provide bags for each dancer. If your dancer has any food allergies, let me know asap so I notify the other parents of your class. Look for the exact date and time for your dancer in the Dec Newsletter.

Tap Ties: I have just finished stocking up my Tap Ties shop!!! These elastic ties are hand crafted and come in 2 Collections: Pretty, Pretty Princess and Sunshine -N- Summertime. Each collection has several styles that are sure to please any dancer! Photos as well as selection descriptions are available on my dance blog at http://www.misswhitneysdancers.blogspot.com/ Tap Ties are a perfect Christmas gift for all dancers who want to show off their style in class and for mom's who don't want to deal with the hassle of untied shoes. To purchase, see Miss Whitney before or after class or place your order by emailing me at wmajeman@live.com. (Tap Ties $2 per pair)

Practice Cds: Will be available for purchase through the rest of the semester and will now also include your dancer’s Christmas Song!!! Place your order via email and get your cd at your next class, so see me before or after class to pre order. Practice Cds $4


Dance Blog: I will posting all of important things that you need to know for your dancer here, so please sign up as a “Follower” of my blog to get email updates whenever something new is posted!! Check it out regularly for pictures, newsletters, and other important info in the weeks to come.

Christmas Skirts: If your dancer is in my Mon Ballet or Wed/ Thurs Combo classes at Higher Ground we are ordering a red skirt for your dancer. You will need to pay $5 cash to either me or Jheri ASAP. Your dancer will wear this for our in class performance and then get to keep it. Thanks!

Thanks so much for all that you all do to help make my job easy! Please send me anything that you would like to add to this and I can put it on my dance community circle email list asap. If there’s anything else I can do for you, let me know!

Happy Dancing!
