Tumbling Exhibition 2024- Full Details

FRIDAY & SATURDAY, MAY 31 & JUNE 1

We are working hard in classes getting ready for this year’s tumbling exhibition! Our students are so excited to shine in front of their family and friends as they show off the results of a year’s hard work, dedication, and progress.  Please see below for your child’s arrival and demonstration time.

The Exhibition will give each class 15-20 minutes of demonstration time. They will arrive 20 minutes before their exhibition to stretch and warm up skills. Each group will have set of skills that they will demonstrate together as a class, and each student will get to showcase a few of their favorite “harder” tricks with their instructor’s supervision. At the conclusion of their class demonstration, tumblers will receive an award and can take pictures with their teachers and supporters. 

  • Where: Expressions Dance- 128 W Parrish Lane, Centerville

  • What to wear:  The uniform for Tumbling Exhibition is the recital shirt and any black athletic shorts, bikers, or leggings. Shirts can be picked up in May. All tumblers will be in bare feet.  The hairstyle for the exhibition is a slicked back ponytail. Makeup is not required.

  • When to arrive: No more than five minutes before your arrival time (for parking)

  • Student Drop off: The performance will be held at our Centerville studio (128 W. Parrish Lane). You’ll drive around Dicks Grocery and drop your dancer off at the back door of our newest studio, which is the very last door on the northwest corner of the building (behind AutoZone). The audience will drive back to the front parking lot and head through the front doors of our main studio (by La Puenta) to wait. After the class has rehearsed and warmed up (about 10 minutes), we’ll escort you into our new studio space for show time!

  • Guests: Each tumbler is allowed two VIP guests to attend the exhibition. Guests should arrive in the same vehicle with their tumbler. There is no fee for spectators.

  • Audience Etiquette:

    • Please lower voice volume in all waiting areas and studios. 

    • Please refrain from distractions that will disrupt the demonstration. 

    • Please silence all electronic devices before entering the exhibition.

    • There will be an opportunity to take photos at the end.

Dad Dance 2024- Full Details

We are so excited to have so many dads participating in the recital dad dance this year! Thank you for being a part of these wonderful memories.  We want this to be a wonderful experience for everyone.  So, if you have any questions please don’t hesitate to call or email.

Dad dance rehearsals are scheduled by your dancer’s last name. We provide dads with two ways to learn:

  1. In-Person: You need to attend a minimum of 2 in-person rehearsals. 

  2. Recorded: We will have practice videos recorded and loaded to this Dropbox folder after our first rehearsal.  Please practice at home!

Rehearsals are split up by age groups.  If you have more than one dancer, please look for your name on the list twice. The first rehearsal is for dads only! We will be teaching a lot of the dance to you before bringing the kids. Dads whose kids are performing in multiple shows have been assigned one show to perform in. Dads who have multiple kids are encouraged to perform with a different daughter at each show. If both kids are in the same show, you are welcome to perform with both kids at the same time.

Tickets for recital go on sale May 1 at 8am. Dads in the dad dance will need to purchase a ticket to the show so they can sit with their family in the audience. https://www.dancetoexpress.com/tickets

We are excited to announce our Parent Peek Week is coming up on April 8-12 & April 15-19 and we would love for you to join us.  During this special week, we invite 1 parent/guardian to come to the last 15 minutes of class.  This is a great opportunity for you to see firsthand what your child has been learning and connect with other parents in our studio community.

We have split up our Parent Participation Peek Week over two weeks to help with traffic and parking.  Please check this list for your date and parent arrival times. 

*Diaper Dancer classes do not participate in Parent Peek week.

Please review these important guidelines before attending:

  • To help avoid congestion in the parking lot and the lobby, drop your student off for their class, and return promptly 2 minutes before your time noted below.

  • Additional parking can be found along Highway 89 or at the LDS church northeast of our location (3317 S 800 W, Bountiful). Do not park directly in front of our building on 89 or cars can’t see to pull out safely.

  • Each student is allowed to have only 1 adult attend the class.

  • Please lower the voice volume in all waiting areas and studios.

  • Please refrain from distractions that will disrupt learning.

  • Please silence all electronic devices before entering our studios. Be present!

  • Please do not bring infants or other children into class.

We are so excited for our ANNUAL FAMILY APPRECIATION POOL PARTY again this year! All studio families are invited to attend! Monday, June 10th, from 7-9pm at the Farmington City Pool! We can't wait to see you there!

UNDERWEAR TO CLASS

It's that time of year we would like to remind our female dance and ballet/jazz classes about our underwear rule: female dancers don't wear underwear, they wear tights.  A swimmer doesn’t wear underwear under their swimsuits and a dancer doesn’t wear underwear underneath her leotard. We need your help NOW before recital gets here.  Let's start working on it so we don't have panty problems at the performance.  THANKS!

 

WHY WE OFFER PERFORMANCE TEAMS: First, it’s important to remember that we believe dance is invaluable to ALL of our students, no matter how many classes they take!  Our company team’s purpose is grounded in our mission to provide an increasingly comprehensive education for those who want a deeper dance experience.  And while there are many reasons why we’ve chosen to offer a company team here at Expressions Dance, we can sum them all up with three overarching objectives. Read about them HERE.

COMPANY AUDITIONS JUNE 3-5: If you're looking for exceptional training and an outlet for dance then mark your calendars with the 2024-2025 Expressions Dance Company summer dates! Our company program is for dancers who want to be challenged to reach their full potential.  Find more info on the website HERE.

We are now accepting registration for Fall 2024-25 preschool at both locations!  The benefit to our preschool is that it INCLUDES our dance and tumbling classes!  Get it all done in one!  There is no reason to sign up for separate dance, tumbling, and preschool programs!  We offer it all and have the BEST TEACHERS around!  Leap'n Learners ignites a child's mind and awakens a passion for learning and movement that will last a lifetime. Space is limited! www.goleapnlearn.com

COMMUNTY CONNECTION
This past month we were able to support the Woods Cross, Farmington, Bountiful, Viewmont, Northridge, Alta, and Layton Drill Teams by having our company dancers perform at their year-end showcases.  These performances have all been positive experiences filled with love, support, fun, high energy, and excitement! The dancers just love being in front of an audience and you could see it on their faces. We are so grateful for the opportunity to shine on stage out in the community. 

FOR PARENTS OF PRESCHOOL DANCERS- APRIL THEME
