Études was such a special weekend for us. Our final performance sold out, the theater was full of energy, and hearing the audience cheer for our dancers meant so much. Thank you to everyone who came out to support our students, our studio, and the arts. We are so grateful to continue sharing the joy of dance and giving back to our community. 🤎 

We also want to give a huge congratulations and thank you to the wonderful Ms. Meghan as she heads off to PT school! We are so proud of you and excited to see all the amazing things ahead for you. You will always be part of the Balletiquette family ✨

And of course, welcome to Ms. Joyce! Ms. Joyce brings decades of teaching experience in contemporary, modern, and floorwork and has worked with dancers of all ages and levels throughout California. She has such a thoughtful approach to helping classically trained dancers explore new movement styles and artistry, and the feedback from students has already been amazing. We are so excited to have her as part of the Balletiquette family! Be sure to check Momence for more information about her contemporary classes.

Summer is right around the corner, and we are so excited to keep building on all the growth and momentum our dancers created this year. We have lots of exciting things planned and can’t wait to continue helping our students progress, gain confidence, and continue growing throughout the summer season 🌞

🚨 Sunday’s performance is now SOLD OUT!

We truly hate having to turn people away, but with theater costs skyrocketing, we made the decision to perform in a more intimate venue this season. The support has meant everything.

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who patroned Saturday’s shows—your energy and encouragement filled the space, and our dancers absolutely rose to the occasion. They performed beautifully, and we couldn’t be more proud of how they represented our community.

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, BDTC relies on the generosity of supporters like you to continue creating performance opportunities and keeping the arts accessible for dancers of all ages and levels. If you were hoping to attend and would still like to support, we would be so grateful for any donation toward future productions.

🎟️ Anyone who donates $20 or more will be entered into Sunday’s raffle! Please make sure your donation is not anonymous in order to be eligible. Donations must be made by 1:30 PM Sunday to qualify.

We can’t wait for one more incredible show tomorrow! 💜 Mrs. Ali
