A great start to the year!


One thing I am very proud of is to be in the community I am in.  I am quite enthralled with each and every family who is a part of Artists’ Play Dance Theatre.

This past week was our first week to dance classes at the studio and I am very happy to see so many familiar faces along with new ones.  My how everyone has grown!

All the dancers are excited to be getting stronger and faster as am I to see them as they leap into the 09/10 season with confidence.

Thank you to all of you who are a part of this growing dance community!
