2 Housekeeping If dancers need to be dropped off early prior to their class starting, please ensure that there are teachers on duty available to supervise them as our first priority is the safety of our dancers at all times. It is important that all students arrive on time for their lesson, if they miss any of the limbering and stretches, this increases their risk of injury. It also disrupts other classes running at the same time. If you are going to be late collecting dancers, please ensure they know and they remain inside the studio until you arrive. Again, our first priority is the safety of our dancers. Full TFD uniforms are encouraged to be worn at all times to all classes, rehearsals and on arrival to all performances. This consists of the TFD Uniform Top with plain black dance pants (shorts are acceptable in summer), black socks and black jazz shoes. TFD Jackets are allowed to be worn at the beginning of classes as the temperature drops. We ask that parents remain in the waiting area to avoid congestion in the studios, although all family members are welcome to use the toilet facilities. It is imperative to send your child with a drink bottle. We are trying to teach our students the importance of drinking water whilst exercising. Remember, there is no eating in the studios ONLY in the waiting area please. Also, please do not wear dance shoes in the car park or outside shoes in the studios as a lot of stones are being brought in from outside that causes damage to our flooring. Contacting Nicole If anyone has any queries or concerns, please do not hesitate to discuss them with me at your earliest conveniences soon so that we together, can resolve these, I am always available on Also my address is; nicole@timefordance.com.au TFD s Mission Statement Time for Dance is a dancing school committed to providing affordable dance classes whilst giving the students positive reinforcement, influencing them with high standards, Christian morals and helping dancers find, enrich and build on their God given talents. Time for Dance was established in 1997.

3 New Classes for 2018 Hip Hop Excitingly, after many requests, we have introduced an Intermediate Hip Hop Class. This is held on Tuesdays, from 7.30 to 8.30 pm and is open to dancers from Grade 6 and up. Reikki Newman will be taking this class and as you all know, she is a very strong hip hop dancer. It is going to add a fabulous contrast to our Concert this year! Cheer Dance Split After the success of Cheer Dance for 2017, we have decided to split this class into two groups. Cheer Dance 1 and Cheer Dance 2. Age, ability and strength will be assessed to see which class fits your child best. This will be sorted in the first week of classes. Week 1 - all cheer students will start at 4.00 pm for assessment purposes and this will be a two hour class.
