Dancing with Denise

Congrats to Miss Julie from Dance Core! Julie graduated from Brockport many years ago and taught at DWD! Today I had the privilege of watching her dance recital with another former graduate and DWD instructor, Miss Justine! Always makes me so proud and happy to see people succeed and do what they love!

Having a party? Did you know I can come to your venue? Tonight was a Country Line Dancing Lesson at a pig roast! And the winner of the Most improved is this cowboy! Great job and So Fun!

Another season is around the corner and Summer & Fall Registration for current, as well as new dancers, IS OPEN! Let’s get excited for all of the camps and classes being offered! Spaces are limited as there is only is one, Miss Denise, so reserved your spot today!

So true….

The Secret Is the Child-Centered Studio

Every child matters.

Not just the child with the highest jump, the cleanest turns, or the trophy on the shelf.

The brand-new baby walking into the studio for the first time matters.

The child who learns slowly matters.

The once-a-week dancer matters.

The advanced dancer matters.

The child with learning differences matters.

The child who is a hard time focusing matters.

The child who needs a little more patience, a little more time, a little more understanding, and maybe a little move love, matters.

And here is what I believe with all my heart.

The most successful dance studios are not built only around the children who become the strongest technical dancers. Those students are important. They inspire us. They challenge us. They help us grow as teachers.

But if we build the whole school around only them, we miss the real oppurtunity.

The real oppurtunity is learning how to teach every child who walks through our doors.

That is where the magic is.

That is where the business grows.

That is where the community is built.

That is where the trust happens.

A child-centered studio does not lower the standard. It raises the purpose.

It asks us to become better teachers, better communicators, better leaders, and better humans.

It asks us to look beyond the talent and see the child.

Because when families feel that their child is seen, valued, respected, and loved, they stay.

They tell other people.

They believe in the studio.

They become part of the family.

The secret to success is not just great choreography, beautiful technique, or full classes.

The secret is creating a place where every children feels like they belong.

That is the child-centered studio.

And I believe it is the future of dance education.

Look at all of these smiles at our “We did it!” End of the season icecream party! Yolickity did not disappoint! Thank you to all who came to enjoy a beautiful night! Can’t wait til we begin again!
