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

We hope everyone had a happy and healthy holiday season! The staff and I want to thank everyone for the nice cards and gifts. We really appreciate your kind gestures, but teaching all of you is our favorite gift of all!

Congratulations to everyone who participated in lots of fun events in December. Holiday Cabaret helped us raise over $25,000.00 for the Meg’s Smile Foundation! Wow! At Cabaret, we were very proud to have awarded Carlie Fuller with the HSSOD Summer Study Scholarship in the form of a full tuition waiver. Congratulations to Mia Crider for receiving a $1,000 scholarship to attend the American Dance Festival. Thanks to all of the classes who participated in this year’s “Act Two” event!!

The Christmas Parade dancers were terrific! Thanks to everyone who performed, choreographed, volunteered, or supported a dancer this holiday season, I am very proud and thankful for all you do. Bravo!

Congratulations to all of the dancers cast in Dance Theatre! We are so proud of you! Check out the complete cast on the HSSOD Dance Theatre Page!

We are so excited to welcome 2019! We had an awesome New Years Dance Jam on Dec. 29th to get the new year off to a terrific start. By offering so many classes, dancers were able to move their bodies in joyful ways all day! Here are some other things we have to look forward to in 2019!

• Costa Rica Dance Mission Trip
• Dance Theatre Performance
• "Dance As If No One Is Watching" Performance
• Disney World Performance
• Recitals
• Guest Artists
• Summer Classes / Camps

Looking forward to an amazing 2019!

I am so excited to announce our cast for Dance Theatre 2019, The Little Prince! I’m adding a few characters from the book that we didn’t include when we did this story in 2013, and I have some different ideas for how to tell the story this year. I cannot wait to get started. This show is going to be lots of fun to work on and perform!

We will be looking for families to help with costuming and set/prop creation. There will also be opportunities to volunteer. Look for these requests over the next few weeks.

I am going to set up a Dance Theatre Facebook group for quick and easy communication. To join, search Facebook for “The Little Prince - Dance Theatre 2019” or go to this link: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2232309946788234/

I will send a schedule with specific rehearsal times ASAP, but plan on the first Sunday afternoon rehearsal for January 6.
