If you have not yet signed up on the commitment form, please do so now. If you are unsure what to enter your child into at least just get your names, DOB etc added in and I will follow up with you.
All of our dancers that know at least their Bun Grad Reel are welcome to compete at this event on the first day and if you know the Reel and Slip Jig you can participate in the whole thing.
COMMITMENT FORM
Last day to fill out this committment form is January 13
All payments will be due to MID on or before January 20
Winter Workshop
$60 per dancer - you come to the sessions that apply to you. ALL Nationals dancers are required to participate in the TEAMS practices.
We will be focusing on our CRN material primarily to prepare for CRN Nationals in February.
Dancers from any studio location are welcome to any of the classes. If you are in Ohio and want to travel with me, please let me know so I can make arrangements for car rental/hotel. Be prepared to share the travel expenses.
ALL Nationals dancers are required to participate in the entire workshop including the TEAMS practices.
Travel Schedule
Friday January 29 Leave Ohio
12 NOON Leave from studio - ETA to hotel approx 3:30/4:00
Workshop 5:30 - 8:30
(there will be some sort of dinner - either ordered in room (pizza etc) or we might go somewhere right after which is another reason I want us to look put together if we stop in somewhere)
Saturday January 28 Return
We would leave at approximately 3PM, it just depends if there are things I need to take care of for current Indiana members. It takes about 3 ish hours (not counting gas and potty stops to get to and from) - and it depends, we may leave on Sunday if we find an additional spot.
What to wear/pack for ALL CURRENT MEMBERS
-
Please bring your black white and pink MID gear for the workshops, NOT competition shirts, NOT St. Patrick's shirts
You will be participating as a dancer as well as an instructor and I want us to look like a team and professional, not a bunch of hobos : )
-
If you don't have "Official" MID gea then plain black white or pink clothing
-
I would prefer black leggings if you have them or black shorts.
-
Make sure shorts are an appropriate length.
I have been noticing some of the shorts at the Dayton studio are getting a little too short.
-
Both pairs of shoes
-
Gym shoes you can dance in, in case your feet get tired and sore
-
Air mattress/sleeping bag pillows/blanket
-
Spending money for dinner/lunch/snack and incidentals and your travel money if you are travelling with me
