EXCITING OPPORTUNITY

Dear Level 4 Dancers, the following has been opened up to your class by special request!!! We have an exciting opportunity to present to our Junior Dancers!

For the first time ever at the Studio D End of Year Concert, we will be having an Act 1 Finale Dance featuring only junior dancers!

The Act 1 Finale will be a Jazz dance taught by Ally and will mean an extra concert item for dancers who choose to participate.The Act 1 Junior Finale is open to all dancers from Level 1 to Level 3 (2nd year) (aged 6-10 years old).

Dancers do not need to be currently participating in a Jazz class to join. For example Hip Hop dancers in this age group may take part in this class without needing to do an additional jazz class.

Class Details
This class will take place on Thursdays and will run for 1.5 hours from 5:00-6:30pm each week until the concert. Classes will commence on Thursday the 6th of June. The 1.5 hour class will allow for some time to be spent on Jazz technique as well as working on the routine for the concert. This class will be an excellent addition for any dancers wishing to enhance their jazz technique and who wish to do an additional dance at the concert this year!

What to Wear
– Class leotard (mulberry or jacaranda) or deep purple leotard (as worn in junior lyrical and junior acro)
– Black Jazz Shorts
– Energetiks “Skintone” Classic Convertible Tights
– Jazz Shoes – Bloch Elastaboot in tan

It is our pleasure to announce that we are returning to Monash University’s Alexander Theatre in 2018 for our end of year concert.

We have had a wonderful two years at The National Theatre in St Kilda, and are very grateful to The National for taking us on, when The Alexander went under construction last year. However, we are really looking forward to getting to see the new renovations at The Alexander Theatre and to get to use the new facilities!

New Venue of End of Year Concert

by studioD on May 11, 2016 , No comments

The Alexander Theatre will be closing for major renovations from 2016 onwards and therefore we have had to search for an alternate venue for our End of Year Concert.
We are very excited to announce that the Studio D All Stars Concert 2016 will be held at The National Theatre in St Kilda on Sunday 13th November. Dress Rehearsal will be on Sunday 6th November.

This is a bigger theatre with more seating so we will only require 2 concerts, Sunday Matinee and Sunday Evening.
We look forward to celebrating our 20th year at an exciting new venue!
