Linda Lavender
Performing Company
will participate in the
LA Dance Magic Competition in Baton Rouge, LA on
March 7th & 8th.
We would like for all dancers to have the Linda
Lavender School of Dance T-shirt or jacket and
pants. This makes our competition groups easily
identified as Linda Lavender Dancers and shows
our pride in our school.
Here are some highlights from the 2008-09 Guide
for Students and Parents.
Classes, Rehearsals
All dancers
are expected to attend their regularly
scheduled classes in addition to all
rehearsals and performances. Any dancer
missing more than 3 rehearsals or classes,
unexcused, will be dismissed from the
competition group. Classes missed due to
sickness, required church or school
activities will be excused as long as we are
notified before class.
Dancers who need to be excused due to
illness or an emergency are required to
notify the studio prior to the scheduled
class or rehearsal. Any dancer excused from
a rehearsal is responsible for learning any
missed choreography prior to arriving for
the next rehearsal.
Rehearsals are an important part of the
commitment to the performing company. All
dancers are expected to work hard and arrive
early enough to give themselves time to warm
up. We will do most of our rehearsals during
competition class each week.
All performing company dancers must attend
rehearsals in proper dance attire and
appropriate shoes. It is expected that all
dancers will be on their best behavior
during rehearsals and work as team players
at all times.
Tuition and Expense Policy
Part of the commitment to the performing
company is being up-to-date with all
accounts related to participation. A
choreography fee will be added to your
December bill. We take the amount that we
are charged by the choreographer and divide
evenly among the dancers in each group.
Remember you can pay ahead for competition,
choreography and costume fees so you won't
have the entire amount due at one time.
