September News

Welcome to Gotta Dance Company. We are so glad you chose us as your dance studio. 

​We have had a fabulous August, it has been a pleasure meeting all of our new dancers and families, and we always love catching up with our returners. We are looking forward to a great month of September. Please see below for important information and upcoming events for this next month.

As always, we are here for YOU! If you ever have any questions, comments, or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact us via email, phone, or just stop by the studio during regular hours. 

Upcoming Studio Closure

The studio will be closed on Saturday, September 2nd - Monday, September 4th in observance of Labor Day. We hope that all of our dance families have a fun and safe holiday weekend.

Bring a Friend to Dance Week

Our Bring a Friend to Dance Week will be held from September 25th - 30th. All dancers are welcome to bring a friend to dance with them for free all week long. Unfortunately, all Jr/Sr Exclusive classes, Thursday's mini company classes, and all performance hours are not eligible for bring a friend week, but dancers in those classes may invite a friend to join in on any other class on the schedule during that week. 

​If your friend LOVES Gotta Dance as much as you do, and registers for classes during this special week, both of you will receive a $30 tuition credit in the month of October. Don't forget to download and print a Friend Form, so that you and your friend can receive credit when they register.

​We can't wait to meet all of our amazing dancer's friends!

Master Classes

Our first master class with Krista was a HUGE HIT! We hope that all of our participating dancers had an amazing class. Our next class with Krista will be on Thursday, September 21st.

For more information regarding these classes and to learn more about Krista, click her photo below to go to our Master Class page.

Don't forget that pre-registration is required for all dancers participating in these classes. And all master classes are required for all company dancers (except mini company).

2018 Recital

Gotta Dance has an annual recital the end of June.  This year recital will be held on Friday, June 29th and Saturday, June 30th. All dance classes will perform a dance at recital. Gotta Dance charges a $25 non-refundable costume deposit on November 1st. You will see these charges listed on your November statement as a “Costume Deposit” for each class. If you have any questions regarding recital or costumes, please let us know. We do send out a packet with all things recital in late April/early May.

Competition Team SAVE THE DATE

Save the date for our largest fundraiser of the season, the Kiwanis Walk-a-thon.  All donations go to a meaningful cause sponsored by the North Phoenix Kiwanis to feed underprivileged children and families during the Thanksgiving holiday. All participants can feel good about helping others in need as well as doing a lucrative fundraiser for Gotta Dance, as Kiwanis donates a portion of the proceeds back to every non-profit organization that participates in the walk-a-thon.

​This year the walk-a-thon will be held on October 21st at the Metrocenter Mall.  Last year Gotta Dance raised an amazing $22,020.00 for this worthy cause!! Packets, envelopes, and more information will be available during the month of September.
