Dear Beloved Dance Family,
As I type this email, I want to let you know that all of us at the dance studio feel for what everyone in the country and beyond is going through right now. There are so many sad situations with the cancellations and closings of places and events that we took for granted in our world as we knew it. Our children are at home, unable to take their Spring Break vacations and some may be worried about what is next. We are sending our love and thoughts to each of you.
We have been continuously monitoring the updates regarding the COVID-19 Virus. In light of the recommendations set forth by the CDC and other government agencies as well as local school district closures, we feel it is our responsibility to temporarily postpone classes at All American Dance Factory and All American Classical Ballet School. We will be closed next week March 23-28. We will have make-up classes the week of June 15. (This year we had an extra week in June before recital so that works out well for us.) During that time, our teachers will be working hard to roll out an exciting opportunity for our dancers to remain connected and to stay dancing with their teachers from their home, much like our schools are doing.
WHAT WE ARE PLANNING: AADF VIRTUAL DANCE CLASSES
Dancing our way through COVID-19
As director of All American Dance Factory and All American Classical Ballet School, I have been reading, researching, consulting other studio owners, watching online webinars with other dance professionals and losing sleep to come up with a positive approach for the frightening but temporary situation we are facing together. The scope of COVID-19 is simply an unknown. As an educator, I feel that I must find ways to successfully offer quality dance education to our students while making their health and well being our priority. At the end of next week, I will be sending more information on this exciting opportunity to bring our dancers back together to keep them active and dancing through the next few weeks while the COVID-19 virus group restrictions are in place. We will be launching out Virtual Dance Classes beginning Monday, March 30. The All American teachers are very excited to offer this to our students and are working on creative ideas to offer extras beyond the dance classes they take now. Our goal is to keep everyone dancing!
We know that this will take some adjusting to, but we are all in this together and before we know it, we will be back to dancing in the studio again.
Your All American staff thanks you for your patience and understanding as we make "lemonade out of lemons" in this situation. We are doing all we can to make this time of self-quarantine more bearable and fun for our dancers. We will be sending much more information out next week.
Please make sure to "like" us on Facebook and Instagram for the latest updates and even some extra videos and events.
