COMPETITION TEAMS

2012-02-07T14:20:00.000-08:00

Hi, here is an update of all of our upcoming events. Our first Competition is at Clearfield High School on Sat. April 21st, Our second Competition is Sat. April 28th at Weber State Dee Event Center and our 3rd Competition is on Sat May 5th in Las Vegas. (I do not get times until about 2 weeks before) I have been checking on rooms in Las Vegas and I found a GREAT price at the South Point Hotel Casino and Spa. The price was 99.00 a night!! WOW!! They have a bowling alley, swimming pool, spa, 16 screen movie theater and a Casino. You are welcome to stay wherever you would like but if you want to stay where I will be :) jump online and book your reservations. The group rate was the same price so it is easier to just have everyone book their own rooms. If you are not going to Las Vegas please let me know ASAP. (I have heard from a couple of you but please respond again to this email)
I sent out an email in Dec about a Tuachann performance and I only heard back from 11 people interested in doing this so I guess we will maybe work on that for next year. I did have more people interested in going on to California after Vegas so I am working on that now. If you are thinking of going to Disneyland sometime this year you will want to come with us because we get GREAT prices into the park! For a 3 day hooper pass it is $149.00. Regular rate is 199.00. BIG SAVINGS! You do not need to do a 3 day pass, they have 1,2,3,4 or 5 day passes available all at a great savings. I will need to start working on this ASAP!! I am sure I can get us rooms for around $100.00 a night. We will set up a Disney Workshop for the girls which is so much fun!! If you are interested please let me know ASAP!!!!!! Even if you said yes to my earlier email please respond again. I am planning on leaving for California either right after our Competition on Sat. May 5th (depending what time that is) or early May 6th. I will do the Workshop either Monday or Tues. depending on availability. You are welcome to stay as long as you would like.
By now everyone should of paid all of the Competition fees, and your $50.00 costume deposit. A $20.00 Prop fee is due this and I will have a total for you on costumes next week, which the balance will be due in March. We have done some great Fundraiser to help cover these costs and I am working on some new ones for us to start soon.

I hope I have not missed anything. If you have any questions please let me know. Thanks for letting me teach your daughters, I love them all to pieces!

It should be around 5:30.

2011 RECITAL HANDBOOK

2011-06-06T14:42:00.000-07:00

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 innumerous. 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 $35.00(per family (which means sisters, brothers not cousins) recital fee includes entrance fees for you, your family, and friends. This must be paid by June 16th. All dancers who have not paid by June 16th 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. This way you can invite whoever you would like and they do not need to pay a fee to see you.

DRESS REHEARSAL (Thurs, JUNE 16th)
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. Please do not be late.
When you get there come into the auditorium and sit with your class. I need everyone to stay in the auditorium!! 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.

PHOTOGRAPHY AND 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 the recital. The cost for the DVD is $30.00. You will be able to order your copy at the rehearsal.

RECITAL MON. JUNE 20th
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 five 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 16th. 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 - (I will describe what Alice Wonderland hair at end)
*”Monkey”- Wear pink ballet shoes with no socks. Hair in Alice Wonderland very curly. Head band bobby pinned in good!
*”Bear Necessities” - no socks, pink ballet shoes. Hair in Alice Wonderland very curly. Head band bobby pinned in good!
*”Wild One”. - Black ballet shoes. Hair very crimped. (put hair in either french braids or several braids the night before and then take them out and fluff hair.) Head band bobby pinned in good! Please safety pin the zebra print top to the green leo on both sides. I will have suntan tights for them to wear under them.
*”Tarzan and Jane” - No socks and black dance shoes. Hair in Alice Wonderland very curly. Head band bobby pinned in good!
*”I Just Can’t Wait to be King” - No socks and black dance shoes. Hair in Alice Wonderland very curly. Head band bobby pinned in good!
*”Black Cat” - Black dance shoe. We will go over hair on Thurs.
*Boys hip hop - Wear tennis shoes with your shorts and t-shirts
*Tumblers – If you are in a dance class keep hair the same. If you are only doing tumbling pull hair out of face into a pony tail, curled. Wear shorts and T shirts with no shoes or socks.
*Competiton girls – Same as you did for competition. For rehearsal we will not have time to change costumes so please wear your main costume and bring the others.
EVERYONE- Be sure to bobby pin headbands etc. in hair!!!
Alice Wonderland hair - part hair right behind ears and pull up both sides into a pony at the crown of head. So the back of hair will be down but the front will be pulled out of eyes. Even if hair is short you should be able to pull up the sides. If not just curl hair. (pink spongy curlers work best to curl hair) I prefer no bangs.

EXTREME BOUTIQUE
We will be selling our summer practice outfits at the Rehearsal. I will have sample sizes there for you to try on. I will order them on the 21st 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. The cost of these is $25.00 and they are very cute! If you are doing tumbling at the Recital you will already have your summer outfit. 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 children! 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

All parents and family memebers will have to wait in the front because we need to respect their yard and not have so much traffic on the lawn. If you do not want to purchase pictures I would still like the girls to be in them. I hang these at the Studio after so I really like to have as many there as possible. I will send home an order form at dancing. Please fill it out and return it at the Dress Rehearsal. I will have a table set up to purchase summer practice outfits, Recital DVDs and pictures. The cost of pictures will be $12.00. It will be an 8x10 Team and individual picture all in one. If you would like to purchase more pictures you can do so on the order form. Thanks!

LAGOON DANCE COMPETITION

2011-06-01T10:27:00.000-07:00

On Sat. June 11th we will be competing at the USA Dance Championship competition at Lagoon. I will have discount tickets next week for those that told me how many they would like. I had a few pay me for them so I will just return your check with the tickets because you purchase them there. I did order some extras so let me know how many you need. I will give every girl a discount parking ticket and you will then take the discount voucher to the window at Lagoon to purchase your tickets. The performers get in for free but will need to buy a ride pass if they are planning on riding rides. If you do not have a voucher you will have to pay full price. They said to allow 1 hour for parking and ticket purchase. Please plan accordingly because she said that they have girls miss thier performance because they did not allow enough time to enter the park. The time listed below is what time I need the girls to meet me at the Davis Pavilion Stage (East end of the Park, turn left at the Jet Star.) There are no dressing rooms so show up all ready to perform!!! Some of you have costume changes, you can either change in the restrooms or bring a tent and set it up on the grass and use it as a dressing room. We are not going to be able to compete our Transform You dance because the stage is not big enough :(

BUST A MOVE - meet at 10:15
CIRCUS - meet at 10:30
HOT LIKE WOW - meet at 10:45
I WANT CANDY - meet at 12:55
ROCK STAR - meet at 2:25

DANCE RECITAL AND REHEARSAL

2011-05-16T08:25:00.001-07:00

The Dress Rehearsal will be on Thurs. June 16th and the Recital will be on Monday June 20th. I will have posted by the end of next week a Recital Handbook. Please be sure you read through this. It will answer all of your questions about Recitals. Also because I do not sell tickets at the door (I hate it when you ask family and friends to come and watch your daughters but then they get there and they have to pay $6.00-$8.00 per person to get in) so instead of charging at the door I charge a $35.00 per family Recital fee that is due by June 16th. I will have a fundraiser available for anyone interested next week. Thanks!

For our performance at the Jazz game the girls will need to meet me at Door #1 on the North side of the building at 6:45. The girls do not need a ticket to perform but will need one if they are staying to watch the game. All parents that are going to enter the building will need a ticket. Even if you are not staying to watch the game. Please be all ready to perform with your sweats over the top of your costumes. It is a late start game so the girls will be performing at about 8:00. If you are just sending in the girls to perform please set a meeting place for around 8:25 to meet them. FYI For the Jazz game parents are welcome to come and sit down low to get pictures and videos of the girls. If 1 parent per girl will come down into the dressing room with us when we get there to help. Also I will keep the girls in the dressing room after they perform until someone from your family comes to get them. I do not want any costumes worn to the game after we are done performing.

"I Want Candy" Hairpiece Link

2011-03-15T16:29:00.000-07:00

If your dance is in the "I Want Candy" competition team, we need you to go to http://www.cheerleaderhairpieces.biz/style_flip and order your dancers hairpiece that we will be using for competition this year. It is mandatory for you to get these hairpieces so that everyone’s hair is the same. It will also be a lot easier for you to do their hair because you will only need to put hair in a bun and attach the hairpiece. It is the “Flip” style (pictured at right). We are not ordering them all together because you need to match your dancer’s hair color and shipping is more affordable when ordered in quantities of 2 or less. You may get together and order them with another dancer and pay only $5 for shipping. Please go to the WEBSITE and order your hairpiece before Thursday the 17th in order to receive them by our Jazz performance. The cost is $17.99 plus shipping, which is equal to or cheaper than what we have found in stores locally.

RECITAL HANDBOOK

2010-06-14T06:18:00.000-07:00

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 innumerous. 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 $35.00 (per family) recital fee includes entrance fees for you, your family, and friends. This must be paid by June 18th. 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 (FRI, 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, gone through the finale. Please do not be late.
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.

PHOTOGRAPHY AND 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 the recital. The cost for the DVD is $25.00. You will be able to order your copy at the rehearsal.

RECITAL MON. JUNE 21st
The performance will start promptly at 7:00 p.m. All students must arrive and meet in the back hallway at 6:30 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 6:30 p.m. We then ask that you do NOT reserve more than five 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 - (I will describe what Alice Wonderland hair at end)
*Stupid Cupid- Wear pink ballet shoes with no socks. Hair in Alice Wonderland curled.
*All Shook Up- no socks, pink ballet shoes. Hair in Alice Wonderland curled.
*L.O.V.E. - Hair in a high pony with it curled. Black dance shoes.
*Love Shack - Hair in Alice Wonderland curled. White dance shoes. I have ordered.
*Shake your Groove Thing - Hair in Alice Wonderland curled. Black ballet or dance shoes.
*Dance Like theres no Tomorrow - Black dance shoe. We will go over hair on Thurs.
*Boys hip hop - Wear tennis shoes with your shorts and t-shirts *Competiton girls – Same as you did for competition. I’m not sure we will not have time to do costume changes. Please wear your main costume and bring the others.
EVERYONE- Be sure to bobby pin headbands etc. in hair!!!
Alice Wonderland hair - part hair right behind ears and puul up both sides into a pony at the crown of head. So the back of hair will be down but the front will be pulled out of eyes. Even if hair is short you should be able to pull up the sides. If not just curl hair. (pink spongy curlers work best to curl hair)

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 20th 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
