Summer Camp Registration + Steppin' Out April News
Excitement is in the air at Steppin' Out as we prepare for our end of year performance! As various classes are trying on costumes, you might find more sequins than usual on our studio floors!
Our big performance date is June 3rd, and we invite everyone to mark your calendars, whether you're an enrolled family or just a newsletter subscriber. Everyone is invited to attend, and it can be a great way to learn more about our school before enrolling in classes next year.
For our enrolled families:
You'll get an email from us soon that includes a lot of performance information, including the performance fee, costume logistics, which classes are performing at what time of day, and a playlist of performance songs that you can use while practicing at home, so stay tuned!
PARENT OBSERVATION WEEK
Parents and caregivers are invited to watch classes during the week of April 25-29. Come see a sneak peek of the choreography our students have been working on for the end of year performance!
REGISTRATION FOR SUMMER CAMP IS OPEN!
This year, we will be offering a two week summer camp for kids ages 6-12! Join Angela & Pearl for a fun filled summer camp experience with some dance & Yoga, arts & crafts, popsicle making, and much more! Choose either or both weeks: June 19-23 + June 26-30. Camp will consist of a structured activity each day but we will also take daily trips to the park for fresh air and free time. Other than playing in the playground some of our other favorite things to do at the park are playing soccer, hula-hooping, and cartwheels in the grass.

DANCE IN THE NEWS
Teacher Erin is performing in AURUM by Kinetech Arts at 836M Gallery in North Beach on April 21 and 28. The performance is open to all ages, but will likely be most engaging for teenagers and adults. Learn more and get tickets—it's free!
MOVEMENT OF THE MONTH: SKIPPING
Skipping is second nature for many of our students at Steppin' Out. But for our youngest ones, it be difficult when you're first learning how. Try breaking it down like this: stand on one foot and hop, then stand on the other foot and hop. It can also be helpful to hold hands while both of you skip, so the young dancer can feel the rhythm in your body. For those who are already comfortable with the cadence of skipping, try adding a ballet flavor with pointed feet and high knees.
