Student Performance of the Nutcracker 2008

Hello Ballet Gloria Dancers and Families,

I'm writing to remind you that the student performance of the Nutcracker is coming up this Wednesday at the Lila Cockrell Theatre (200 E. Market Street). If you have already purchased tickets to this performance, please remember to arrive at 9:00AM, as seating is done on a first-come, first-serve basis, and only when the entire group has arrived. Please meet in the lobby of the Lila Cockrell and notify the ushers that you are with the Seeds home school group.

If you have not purchased tickets to this performance, but are still interested in seeing The Nutcracker, you can purchase matinee or evening performance tickets at the Alamodome downtown (this will allow you to avoid the $8 Ticketmaster fee). Unfortunately, we are out of space for the student performance for this year.

Also, please mark your calenders for the Ballet Gloria Christmas Party on December 30 from 2PM-5PM--we will look forward to seeing you all there!

Thanks so much
Blessing on you all in this Christmas season
Josie

New Class Times

Hello Ballet Gloria Dancers and Parents,

We've been praying and thinking through the new class-time situation, and we've decided to hold two separate class hours (1:15-2:15, 2:15-3:15) for ages 3-8. At the 1:15pm hour, Miss Olivia and will teach a class for 5-8y/os and Miss Josie will teach a class for 3-5y/os. At the 2:15pm hour, Miss Josie and Miss Kendra will team teach a class for 5-8y/os and Miss Olivia and Miss Sophie will team-teach a class for 3-5y/os. All of our teachers are classically trained in ballet, currently keep up their own ballet instruction, and teac children in this age group in dance and other capacities. Additionally, our teachers have all completed Bibleland teacher training and comply with the OHC guidlines for the safety of your children. It is your decision as to what time works best for you and your family.

Thank you so much
Blessings
Josie

New Ballet Gloria Class Times

Hello Ballet Gloria Dancers and Parents,

I am writing to announce that we will be opening up classes on Thursdays from 1:15pm-2:15pm for children 3-8 years old. We are grateful to God for a tremendous amount of growth this year, and are working to find ways to best serve these delightful new dancers. Would any of you be interested in attending an earlier class time with smaller numbers? If so, please email me at jsdeahl@swbell.net with your preference in class time as well as the age group you are interested in. We will also need room moms and class assistants for these new classes--please let us know if you would be at all interested in volunteering for these positions.

Thanks
God bless
