Our clinics for Competition Team will be on Aug. 10th, 11th and 12th. Auditions will be held on Aug. 13th. All of these will be in the evenings.
For those that have never tried out for my Teams before, I want you to know it is not like most Comp. Teams. The girls only come 1 day a week for 2 hours. I only do 2 to 3 Competitions a Year, so you dont need to plan on spending every Sat. for 3 months at Competitions. I perfer doing more fun, memoral performances. If you have any questions please call me.

RECITAL HANDBOOK
INTRODUCTION
This handbook is your key to a smooth recital experience. It should be able to answer your questions, and inform you of what is required from all students and families.
The recital will be a rewarding experience for all of our students. If this is your student’s first year at the Electric Youth Dance Company, we encourage the entire family to approach this milestone with support and enthusiasm. The benefits of performing in front of a live audience and participating in the artistic process of choreography, rehearsals, and teamwork are in numerous. Most important, each student is given the opportunity to be someone special – someone who has worked with diligence, determination, and heart to achieve her goals.
Performing on stage builds confidence and character; it gives one a sense of accomplishments and pride. These are qualities we want to see our children attain. The recital experience will help a child in other aspects of their personal lives at school, church, sports activities, and much more.
RECITAL FEE
Your $30.00 (per family) recital fee includes entrance fees for you, your family, and friends. This must be paid by June 17th. All dancers who have not paid by June 18th will be unable to participate in the dance recital. This fee goes towards the rental of the auditorium, tech fees and Janitor fees for our dress rehearsal and recital.
DRESS REHEARSAL (THURS, JUNE 18th)
The Dress Rehearsal is held at Roy High School. All classes will have stage time in which they will practice their routine with full costume, performance lights and music. Each class has only 10 minutes on the stage so please do not be late! The girls will be excused after they have practiced on the stage and gone through the finale. Everyone will need to be there at 4:00 SHARP! I will have a place for every class to sit and watch. Please do not be late.
My Little girls, (Belle, Cinderella and Tinkerbell) will be excused right after we go through the Finale witch should be at 5:10. If you are late you will miss your time on the stage.
When you get there come into the auditorium and sit with your class. I need everyone to stay in the auditorium!! I need all of the girls there! Parents are welcome to stay however please do not let other children run around and please keep quiet, sometimes the parents are louder than the girls.
VIDEOS
I have hired a professional video-ographer to video our recital. This is a professional quality keepsake that your family will enjoy for years. We will use two professional video cameras to film at dress rehearsal and at the recital. The cost for the DVD is $25.00 if ordered by June 22nd. I will have a order sheet at the Dress Rehearsal and also at the Recital.
RECITAL Mon. JUNE 22nd
The performance will start promptly at 6:30 p.m. All students must arrive and meet in the back hallway at 6:00 p.m. sharp!!
Students should use the restroom before their parents drop them off. I have Sunset Jr. Highs Cheerleaders there to help me with all of my little girls classes, So moms do not have to stay backstage.
We will warm up and then get lined up for our show to begin. After each class has performed the volunteer in charge of each class will take the girls back and start lining them up for the Finale. After the Finale, I will have all of the little one stay on the stage and parents can pick them up.
The doors will not open until 6:00 p.m. We then ask that you do NOT reserve more than six seats per dancer. All reserved seats should be let go five minutes before the recital.
UNPAID TUITION
All tuition, recital fees, and costume balances need to be paid on or before June 18th. If your account is not current your daughter will be unable to participate in our Dance Recital.
MAKE-UP
Make-up should be worn to performance and dress rehearsal. Eye shadow, eyeliner, mascara, blush, lip liner and lipstick should be natural tones. Cheeks and lips should be reds or dark pinks. Competition teams should wear your competition make-up. Make-up should look natural, not heavy. If your performer does not have enough make-up on she will look washed out on stage. We want their beautiful features to be seen from a distance.
HAIR
(Alice in Wonderland is 1/2/of the hair both sides pulled up from behind the ears into a pony on the crown of head, with the rest down. I prefer no bangs)
*Tinkerbell - No socks with pink ballet shoes. Hair in Alice Wonderland curled.
*Cinderella - No socks, pink ballet shoes. Directions for hair above
*Belle - No socks, pink ballet shoes. Directions for hair above.
*Cruella - Bangs pulled back into bobby pins (Chihuahua) with hair CURLY, and headband in to hold the rest of hair out of eyes. Be sure to bobby pin the headband. No socks and black dance shoes.

Beverly Hills Chihuahua - Hair pulled up into a high pony CURLY, with headband bobby pined in. If your hair is short just pull up half of hair.
* Competition girls - same as competition.
EXTREME BOUTIQUE
We will be selling Electric Youth T-shirts and shorts. I will have sample sizes there for you to try on. I will order them on the 23rd and if you do not order at the dress rehearsal or recital you will not be able to get them. I am only putting in ONE order. They will be at the studio the first of July. We will wear these in the South Weber parade in Aug. (If you do not order a T-shirt and shorts you can wear your costume in the parade.)
I hope this answers all of your questions. I want to thank you all for giving me the opportunity to teach your daughters! I truly love each and every one of them, and look forward to sharing my love for dance with them for many years.
Love, Michele
