Christmas Break
I am still working on details for the Christmas party and my goal is to have it on either Dec. 18 or Dec. 19.  

In the meantime, mark your calendars for Christmas break.  No classes at any of our  Ohio and Troy studios will be held Dec. 20 - Jan. 18.  Our Indiana studio WILL have class at the TAF on the 18th.
 

        

 

 

 


You are invited to our Christmas Party!

Dancers from ALL of our studios and our Jump'n Jig families AND MID prodigals and their familes are invited to join us at our Christmas party on Sunday December 19 at Bowl 10 in Fairborn..

There will be bowling from 1 - 3, pizza, snacks and sodas.

Adults I will have an open tab at the bar for a short amount of time for us.

They did say we could bring in desserts, if you feel like whipping up some sweet treats, I am sure they would be appreciated

Please RSVP so we have enough bowling lanes and food etc.
