Sometimes life works in the most mysterious and he

Sometimes life works in the most mysterious and heartbreaking ways. Our beautiful, talented and kind Olivia is now with the angels. She fought so hard, with grace, hope and strength but lost her battle with cancer this week. We are all heartbroken to say the least, and we are sending love, hope and strength to Cindy, Mark and Ava Sergot during this devastating time.

We have been waiting for the perfect opportunity to name our front studio at Extensions Dance center and this is most certainly it. It will forever be known as the Olivia Sergot memorial studio and we will place a plaque above its entry for each of us to see and remember her daily. Olivia, you have changed us for the better and we promise to remember and honor you forever.

We will see you later, Liv. With all the love and gratitude, your Extensions Family 💔. @sergotc @avasergot

What a gift that Olivia Sergot’s light and beautiful smile has graced our Extensions family. Olivia, you have inspired us in so many ways through your strength, integrity, courage, and kindness. We are so blessed to know you and love you. Your soulful heart and brave spirit will be with us forever. We are sending truckloads of hugs, kisses, and so much love to you and your family💜

As winter break approaches, we are very excited to announce our next spirit week! For the last week of classes before winter break (this week!!), every dancer is welcome to BRING A FRIEND to their dance classes at Extensions!

These friends do not need to have any previous dance experience, and if they don’t have the proper attire, no worries! They can simply wear comfortable clothing that they can easily move around in. For footwear, they can wear socks or go barefoot. Sneakers are a great option for tap classes if they don't have tap shoes. If they have the correct attire/shoes, they are more than welcome to wear them.

Extensions Dance Center’s spirit week will take place starting Monday, December 13th and will run through Sunday December 19th. Make sure you and your friend grab a holiday photo with photo props under our balloon banner and tag us on social media. There will be fun holiday treats for all and lots of festive energy floating around the dance center. We hope to see you there!

Directly following spirit week will be Extensions Dance Center's winter break from Monday, December 20th through Sunday, January 2. All classes will resume beginning Monday, January 3rd, 2022.

We can't wait to meet your friends and celebrate the joy of the season and the joy of dance with all of you! ❄️☃️❄️

We’re really throwing it back this Thursday! This contemporary piece was danced by Extensions Too! in the 2016-17 season, and the dancers you see are now in our Teen Company! They’ve grown immensely, and our hearts are melting from watching this. 9-10 years old then, and 14-16 years old now 🥺❤️

“Even if you weren’t born with a genetically perfect body, you can take something like a hand, where everyone has the same capabilities, and you can make it speak. You can make it speak in many different ways.”
-Sarah Lamb

What is a genetically perfect body anyway? At Extensions, we celebrate uniqueness everyday, and urge our students to celebrate every aspect of themselves. There is no such thing as a perfect ballet body, especially at Extensions. Happy world ballet day to all our friends and family, we’re sending love on this special day!

Learning 3 dances in 7 hours and being thrown on an unusually shaped stage (runway) in a costume you’ve never worn before with almost no rehearsal time = big growing opportunity. Performing at the @revolutiondancewear fashion show is ALWAYS a highlight of our season and though it is a fast and furious learning and choreographic process, we grow and learn so much, and we LOVE that! Enjoy these clips from 2 of our dances we shared tonight at “Energize!”!! Choreo by @skizziemack
