TJ Dance is looking for a High School IT (Cedarcrest) person looking for a part time position as an IT Consultant. We are working our way through the many bugs and hiccips as we learn how to stream classes successfully. We're getting there, but need the extra know how. If you're interested, please contact us at tjdance.com or message us. We would love to talk with you! We need a "go to" person. 😉
Yesterday, Jayne's granddaughter was able to take class from Teacher Stephanie all the way from Hawaii! It was so special. ❤ Once we get better at this technology, we hope to teach many that have moved away or are still unable to get here💕
Thank You for your patience dancers and parents. We are working hard to streamline this whole process of checking people in, streaming and teaching in studio and having it all work together. We appreciate you all!
A HUGE Thank You to our teachers too! You are the BEST! ❤❤❤
Let's dance💃🕺❤

We started dancing Tuesday Sept 8. We are so happy to be dancing again. We were too busy to even take pictures. Thanks for your patience as we work through the bugs and hiccups with our new normal "for now". We're still working on the better internet... WELCOME BACK! 🕺❤💃

TJ Dance Costume Pick Up days:
Mon, Aug 17 10-12
Wed. Aug 19 1-4
Thurs, Aug 20 4-6
Registration for 2020/21 is now open at tjdance.com Classes begin Sept. 8th.
Class size will be limited because of CDC guidelines.
See you all SOON! LET'S DANCE!❤🥰💃🕺❤
Costume Pick Ups Today Aug 5, 2020 from 5-7 at studio. This will be the last pick up day before classes begin again so please come by this evening and pick your costumes up. We'd love to see you!❤
The 20/21 schedule will be posted on the website this week at tjdance.com. We are so excited to get dancing again! So far, there are only 4 in studio spots available for each studio for each class. We can take more students but plan to rotate them in studio with streaming students so everyone will be able to experience dancing in studio on a rotating basis. If you'd rather. You can also just register for streaming until things get better and we move to phase 3. We can not make recital plans until we get to phase 4, so for now, we'll just get back to the fun and learning and just DANCE! 🥰 All students (under 3 and/or students unable to wear a mask for medical reasons) and teachers will be required to wear a mask and we have added time between classes for disinfecting the studio. We will also take dancer's temperatures (no contact thermometer) and ask a few questions each week to keep a record as required. Parents will need to remain outside until we are able to open the studio up more in Phase 4. We will meet parents outside to bring dancer's in and repeat that procedure with exciting students.
Classes begin Tuesday September 8th! We can hardly wait!!!💕❤🥰

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!❤💕🥰

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!

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
