Drawings for dance tuition...:)

Do you know that we give away gift certificates on our new facebook fan page on a regular basis?  They include gift certificates for dance tuition, ballet slippers, ballerina bears and all kinds of fun.

We do this to reward our parents that keep up on Facebook, because you are usually among our most imformed parents!

Just go to facebook and search "inland Northwest Ballet of Spokane" (you must find the page with the "of Spokane" or you will reach our old friend page, which is no longer being used).  "Like" our page and watch for drawings!  We have one going on now for $50 in summer dance tuition, and you can win for you or someone else, don't you know a little dancer that wants to dance?  :)

Pictures passed out during class this week!

Remember that dance photos will be passed out during class this week, we can't wait to see them all!  Another note on performances - All of our performances went amazingly smoothly this year, thanks to all who helped out backstage, you are truly gems!  Backstage parents make it possible for all of the dancers to sit in the wings during the entire show and watch the dancing up close, something they simply love to do!  Thanks a million!  :)

Registration for both fall and summer classes, including summer dance camp for 3-9 year olds, and ballet intensives with Sarah Glesk and Peggy Goodner continue this week!  Call 467-0765 or stop by for more info...:)

June Performances open next weekend!

Our June performances open next Saturday, June 8, at 7:00 pm, at Mt. Spokane High School Theatre.  We promise a delightful program for the entire family to watch.  Our new ballet "The Chrysalis in the Garden" will involve dancers ages 3 and up, and tell the story of the metamorphosis.  The story begins with three mischievous boys wandering through the garden, discovering sunbeams, flowers, raindrops, and even a caterpillar.  Later, finding a chrysalis in the garden, and knowing they probably shouldn't, try to peel away the layers of the chrysalis to reveal what is inside.  The Fairy of Moonlight scolds them, and then tells them how it is the struggle of the butterfly that makes her strong.  That without the struggle to get out of the chrysalis (which is what pushes meconium into the wings and creates strength), the butterfly's wings would remain weak, and she would die.
The boys then leave the chrysalis, and watch in wonder as the butterfly struggles, breaks free of her shell, and dances the beautiful allegro of spring!  Please join us for this delightful story.  Admission is free, but seating is limited, and usually fills to capacity, so arrive early to secure your seating.
If you have questions regarding any of our performances, please call the studio at 467-0765 or e-mail inlandnwballet@aol.com.  If you would like to arrange for your child to meet the butterfly backstage after the performance, please contact Studio Director Janine Fraser at inlandnwballet@aol.com early this week.
