IMPORTANT -PLEASE READ

Thanks for coming to the dress rehearsal and helping us stay on time. I am a little worried about everyone being on the same page with tights, shoes, hair and accessories. This was to be a full dress rehearsal and we had many that did not have their snaps on their shorts to their skirts, no tights when needed, no shoes, hair falling every which way. The point of dress rehearsal is to make sure there are no costume malfunctions and also to make sure we all look the exact same and I am not sure that was accomplished. So below is a check list for each dance. Please make sure you check this list when packing for this competition. YOU WILL NOT GO ON STAGE IF YOU ARE MISSING PIECES OF YOUR COSTUME OR IF YOUR COSTUME IS NOT FINISHED

Please remember you are to arrive 2 hours early as ready as possible for your first dance. Please do not come in without makeup or hair done and spend the entire 2 hours getting ready. Space is limited at this venue for dressing and makeup and they could possibly be running 2 hours early. So it would be in everyone's be interest to come as ready as possible. We will try and rehearse each dance before going back stage....this practice time will only be for students and teachers. Parents, family and friends will be asked to finish any pictures and socializing before we break away for this practice, so the dancers can fully focus before heading backstage. Parents, please make sure you fully secure all hair pieces and hairstyles with tons and tons of pins and spray/gel. Judges will count off for hair falling out or any piece of the costume falling off. We need to make sure we safety pin any part of the costume that could possibly come unsnapped or fall off. Please bring tons of body tape...the good kind is from Performance Studios on Thompson Lane. Please make sure there are no holes or rips in your tights. Its always a good idea to bring a back up pair of each kind you wear. We WILL be wearing donuts with any kind of bun. This will need to be secured with a hair net also. I understand many of you are opposed to wearing the donut, but there is a good reason for it, or we wouldnt go through the trouble of wearing it. Eyelashes are MANDANTORY for all female dancers. NO exceptions for this.

Notes for Wednesday!

Wow! So very very proud of all the ThunderBoltz dances! They have worked very hard and I am so proud. Many are thinking about using their technique and I have noticed a huge difference! So proud of you all!

Note to Hot Notes: Mrs. Cathy is working hard on your costumes today and will have them there for you on Wednesday. Please try to arrive as close to 4:00 - 4:30 pm as possible. She will do some last minute adjustments and take them to her house and sew and bring them back to us on Wednesday. It will be fine. No worries. So thrilled that she was able to help us out. She is so talented.

Please help us on Wednesday by picking up trash and putting it in the trash can. We will have the big trash can set up, please use it. It's really sad on Saturdays when we have to spend 30 minutes after rehearsals throwing about trash left all over the building. Please help us try to keep the building nice.

Again, label all your costumes. It's going to be crowded but let's enjoy our time together! It's going to be a great weekend! Love you all!

BUSY WEEK!

It's finally here! So thrilled about our first competition! Please see the competition schedule in the post from last week below. Remember to arrive 2 hours before your time on the schedule or when the doors open if 2 hours puts you there before 7:00 am.

Thanks to everyone for their hard work. Parents thanks to you all for all your hard work on costuming and props!

Our dress rehearsal is this Wednesday. Please come as ready as possible. Please label all your costumes and make sure everything gets back into your bag. IT'S VERY IMPORTANT TO MAKE A CHECK LIST. We do not have any extra costumes, so if you loose it you will not be able to be in the dance.

Please make sure that you wear tights with NO holes if you are wearing tights. All head pieces should be secured in with zip ties. It is mandatory for ALL girls to wear eyelashes.

Please email if you have any questions. Thanks to you all!

Aye Caramba Info

There have been some questions on Aye Caramba hair. We will use the donut to make a side bun. You will need a hair net and plenty of bobby pins. Also, we will put the curly hair piece around the bun. Keisha is making the hairpiece for everyone. Please make sure you have replaced the hook and eye on the back of the top with large heavy duty smaps and have pulled the sequin strap to the opposite side shoulder to help hold up the big puff sleeve. We will be wearing nude foot undies with this costume. I have a shipment arriving next week. Please exchange your black foot undies for nude ones if you have already picked up your black foot undies. Please email if you have any questions.
