Dad’s Dance

/in , /by

A VERY SPECIAL time of the year, Dad’s Dance.

Fridays, two timeslots:  5:30-7 pm or  7 pm-8:30 pm.  Location: Wildflower Gym. Exact Dates TBA, likely Feb 27th or March 6th start date til Showcase, five or six rehearsals.

Dads registered for the 5:30 timeslot will perform in the Friday 24th 7 pm show and the Saturday 26th 2 pm Matinee.

Dads registered for the 7 pm slot will perform Saturday, 25th 7 pm show and Sunday 26th 2pm Matinee.  Space pending dads can do both timeslots, for the keeners.

If you are new to the studio, a quick explanation: This has become an annual highlight of our April Showcase. The dads learn a dance with their children to close the show, it is very very misty, sweet, fun and EPIC! The kids have been over age 9 in the past as it requires a good deal of focus in a crowded room, and mainly the choreography is suited to older kids and teens.
This class is a chance to bond, laugh, and have fun and learn some groovy moves. Open to dads ( stepdads, or dad like figures) and their kids. The crowd loves it (still have folks talking about it), the kids are so proud of their dads (stepdads or dad like figures), and new friendships are formed through this rite of passage. Excellent chance to bond in a new way! PS. you do NOT need dance experience!

 Registration for this will be done at the end of January. Dads need to register with their OWN account, not their dancers 🙂

Costume: TBA

Fun: To be had.

From last year’s participants:

“I coach a lot of her sports but dad dance was the best connection I had with Lilly last year. My daughter was stoked to be able to show me her dance world and it was cool to be able to switch roles with me as the student and her as the coach. Thanks for giving us that.”  – Simon Liddell ( LVR High school teacher)

“Dad’s Dance was one of the coolest, scariest, endearing things I’ve ever done. It was an experience both me and my two stepdaughters will never forget. It brought us closer, made us laugh, and created a story we’ll recall and share for many years to come.” – Mitchell Scott (editor-in-chief of Kootenay Mountain Culture Magazine)
