Do you have dance shoes that you can recycle?

Donate them to the studio! Please drop them off with the office staff.

Holly Springs School of Dance recommends Relevé for all of your dancewear needs!

Welcome! We are so excited that you have chosen to dance with us! We are going to do everything we can to make this one of the best parts of your child’s life. By reading our monthly newsletter, you will stay in touch with all of the great things happening at HSSOD!

I hope that you and your family had a fabulous summer! We loved our camps and classes at the studio, but I also took some time to experience professional growth opportunities. I had the great pleasure of studying at the American Dance Festival with other professionals from around the country. I also attended the Dance Teacher Summit in NYC. I know that when I am feeling energized by refilling my cup, I can give my very best to our studio. Bring on season 21!!!

The NEW studio looks amazing! Special thanks to our friend and Dance Dad extraordinaire, Peter Musser, for helping to create some really special touches in that beautiful space. We have been dreaming of having this done for so long. With this new space, we are able to serve our dance community in wonderful ways. Stop in to studio 140 to check it out! Did you catch Springs Dance Company performing “Tribe” by NY choreographer, Clay Thomson? If you missed it at Open House, check it out at Sparkcon on Sept. 15th! Read on in this month’s newsletter!

Special thanks to Richard Dobbs for painting a beautiful angel wing mural on the back wall of studio 128! Why angel wings? Because I know that HSSOD is a space where children are watched over, loved, encouraged, and lifted through dance. Check it out!!
