Introducing
Stars Showcase
SESSION 1: JANUARY 4TH - MARCH 13THSession 2: March 15th - May 23rd
One of the best parts about being a dancer is sharing our love of dance with family and friends. Dance 101’s brand new Stars Showcase will give students the opportunity to perform throughout our 2021 Session.
Make-ups and switching classes will not be allowed throughout the 9-week session from August 3rd – October 5th. We are limiting numbers in the studio in order to be able to maintain distance.

Class Details
Our Stars Showcase classes will be divided by ages and level. Tiny Stars (ages 3-5), Mini Stars (ages 6-8), Junior Stars (ages 9-11) and Teen Stars (ages 12+).

Dancers will need to arrive at Dance 101 5 mins prior to your class’s scheduled photo time in costume with hair and makeup ready to have their photo taken. We will have a staging area/distanced seating area for parents and dancers in Studio 1. (Parents are also welcome to wait outdoors if they prefer, please help us by limiting to one adult per student). Dancers will have their photo taken in Studio 2 and then proceed to Studio 3 to rehearse their dance in costume 1-3 times. Afterwards, students will exit the studio with their parent.
