A huge shout out to our absolutley incredible staff (although we're missing Jenn and Tracy in this photo). We know today is as rough on you as it is on us... We're all missing our dancers and the amazing energy every unique class has. We're missing the challenges of teaching, working on choreography and the hours of fun and hard work! It's probably time to get planning for a new normal and a tricky new schedule... but we have no doubt we're all up for the task. Thank you! We love you!❤💕🥰

Today, Recital Day 2020 and we're at a loss for words. So much love to our dancers over the many years! So much love to our current dancers! We know you are all feeling a bit disappointed today... So are we... ❤ We miss you all so much.🥰 We would love for you to post pictures of you today! You can add them here or create your own posts and tag us #_tjdance on Instagram or TJ Dance on Facebook. We'll get through all of this and be dancing together just as soon as we can. Thank you again to the people that have continued to support us through all of this. We love you all!💕

This evening at 5pm, we will gather in the studio parking lot and get ready to cheer on our 2020 graduates! 🎉We can grab some pompoms and our TJ Dance banner with a couple grad balloons attached. We can stand out by the road and cheer for our graduating seniors as the drive by on 203 on their way to their drive up graduation ceremony in Carnation. Bring any fun accessories you'd like! Everyone is welcome! They deserve the recognition! Congratulation Class of 2020! We love you!❤

Dear Dancers and Families:
We miss seeing all of you! According to the Governor's recent "stay at home" order, and the CDC's recommendations of social distancing, we have to keep the studio temporarily closed. We also realize that since the April 6th announcement of schools remaining closed, it is unlikely that we will be back dancing at the studio in May or June. We do not want our dance year to end so abruptly. You will be hearing individually from your teachers. Some will be using Zoom for a virtual class, or just to communicate with students and share some dance time. We would like to continue through June with this. There are videos of recital dances, along with warm-ups and exercises that can be done at home. We have included links under each teacher's name in our previous email and at the bottom of this email. Please check back often. We will continue to update these folders!
Please go to tjdance.com to find our most updated news.
We're here... we miss you... we will dance together again! Stay safe and healthy. ❤ #_tjdance #tjdancerocks #tjdance

Dear Dancers,
How are you all? We miss each and everyone of you terribly! We so look forward to seeing you all soon and dancing with you again. Costumes are still arriving. And they are beautiful! Once we get back to dance, we’ll have to see if we’re able to stay with our original recital date. If not, we’ll look into when and where we can put on our shows. We will have a show though! We may just have to be a bit more flexible. Maybe this will turn itself around much sooner than we think and we can just jump back in and go on with the original plan. We just don’t know yet. ❤️ We hope these videos will help you get some practice in while we all stay at home. All of the teachers will be adding more videos as time goes on so you can all get in more dance! Just keep remembering, we’ll get back to dance just as soon as we can! We all have to do our part right now and social distance.
Here are the most recent teacher’s links. There will be more dance in the folders soon! Teachers will be adding videos as often as they can, so keep an eye on these links. Take good care of yourselves and stay healthy! We’re all in this together...❤️

Keep watching the links. I'm uploading 7 videos i recorded yesterday right now. The Wed Fosse warm ups and stretches are loading with those. Everybody can stretch to those! You can even share those with people needing to move. Today I'll get some floor work recorded. Hoping to see you all soon! #_tjdance ##tjdancerocks #tjdance

Hi Dancers! ❤ There is so much uncertainty concerning COVID-19. We are all hearing the often confusing news. This has many of our dance families concerned and understandably so. We've weathered many storms as a studio. We plan to get through this also! We want to assure all of our dancers and families we're doing everything we can to keep our dancers and their families safe. All dancers must wash their hands as they enter the studio. Between every class, teachers wipe all often touched surfaces down with disinfectant. We hope to keep the studio up and running and keep all plans for our recitals moving forward. 💕 #tjdancerocks! Indeed it does!❤ Let's keep dancin'!💃 #_tjdance and let's all do our part to keep us all healthy by following all the guidelines preventing the spread of this virus. #tjdance 🥰
