Summer 2012 Cover Letter

Spotlight Dance Works 586-949-5630

Dear Dancer,

Thank you for your interest in Spotlight Dance Works.  This is the studio where your children will train under experienced and knowledgeable teachers.  Our motto at Spotlight is that we teach our students more than just a dance routine….we teach them to dance.  Although we do conclude each fall/winter season with an exciting recital, we focus on teaching dancers the technical and artistic aspect of dance.  We go above and beyond just the steps of a routine.

You have truly made the right choice in dance education.  Our competing dancers are the best in the area and among the best in the state.  Whether you want to take a recreational class or join our competing team, we will teach your dancer the best technique possible. 

Click here for our schedule of classes for the summer of 2012.  Summer classes will run for four weeks beginning the week of July 10th and end August 2nd. The classes will meet twice a week on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Registration fee is $10.00 for one dancer and $15.00 per family.  Your registration fee is good for the entire fall as well.  Advanced classes are available in ballet, tap, jazz and lyrical.  Please call for that schedule and fees. If you have a question about the placement or style of dance you would like your dancer to enroll in, please feel free to call.

We have recently moved to our new studio which is located at 45385 Marketplace Blvd in Chesterfield, across from the Wal-Mart off Hall Road and I-94.

Thank you for your interest,
Liz Schmidt
Artistic Director
