LE Dance Company Parents and Students,
THANK YOU SO MUCH for thinking of me (and the staff) this holiday season ! The Christmas envelope was much appreciated ! I am grateful every year for the wonderful students that attend LE Dance ! I am also, beyond proud.
Prior to the Christmas break, I was part of an interview for one of our students' classes. As I reflected on "why" I opened LE Dance, I just remember thinking 14 years ago, wanting a dance studio that truly trained young people in the various genres of dance but ALSO creating well rounded good people ! It wasn't so much I wanted a bunch of superstars, but I wanted to cultivate dancers who loved to move, felt at home in the studio, and truly knew they were cared about regardless if they were a one hour a week dancer or a fifteen hour a week dancer. Later in the interview I was asked if I liked my job. Like ? I LOVE my job. I was asked, why? I said I get to spend my time with kids. I love kids. I love them little and I love them big ! Sure, they can be challenging, and go thru "phases", but thats what I love. Hearing myself say " I Love my job", made me happy this whole Christmas season. Sometimes we just have to be reminded by a homework assignment, the joy of life !
Thanks for all being so supportive and awesome! Liz

Dancers and parents,
I can't begin to thank you enough for the booster Christmas gift I received. I always and have always felt so loved and supported through the families at LeDance. It's little (yet BIG) gifts like this that remind me that I have found a home in the dance community, and I truly believe the BEST dance home. Thank you all for thinking of me this Christmas season. I'm looking forward to the upcoming dance season, seeing our routines on stage, having a great Nationals, and finishing the year watching the growth of dancers who continue to amaze me. I hope you know how much myself and the other teachers truly do love you and enjoy our time with each other doing something we are all so passionate about. Thank you all very much! Have a happy and safe happy new year!
Love,
Miss Katie
