Dear Parents and Students,

We hope this email finds you well. We so dearly miss seeing all of your bright, happy, smiling faces. These past couple days have been a whirl wind of ever changing information. The Dansations Staff understands how difficult this will be for our children as we move on through the next few weeks. Our goal is to provide as much fun and dance as we can! We look forward to sending you videos and to seeing pictures and videos of your children dancing at home and outside! Please follow us at: Instagram.com/DansationsWny for daily photo and video challenges!

Since it is unclear on exactly when we will return to the studio, I have worked out a plan for several different scenarios. The most likely case is that we return sometime between April 20th and May 10th (based on current Erie county and CDC recommendations).

PLAN FOR ESTIMATED RETURN DATE APRIL 20th-May 10

– April tuition and classes will be moved to June. We ask that, if possible, people pay all, or part of June tuition, in April. This will help Dansations continue to operate during this difficult period.

-There will be NO late fees applied in April

-If you are on Auto-pay, you will not be charged again until May tuition. Your final auto pay for the season will be June 1st for June tuition, if you wish to pay June now, you will need to log into the portal to make the payment.

-6 week spring session will begin the week we return to classes. It will run for the full 6 weeks.

– We are VERY EXCITED for our online videos coming soon!

-Teachers will provide half hour video lessons for each class that we teach, Videos will be provided once every 2 weeks.

– We are still working towards a June 4th Competition Showcase date and a June 6th Recital Date.

-Classes will extend through the end of June, June tuition will be charged on June 1st (unless you opt to make that payment in April)

-The last day of classes will depend on our return date.

– In addition to the videos, students will be able to register for private face time lessons, as well as private face time (or Skype) group lessons. Details on this will be coming next week!

Thank you everyone for your continued support during this difficult time. We send you all of our love and well wishes.

Yours in Dance,

Liza Schnitzer
