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 🥺❤️

DRUMROLL PLEASE…. for the first time, Extensions Dance Center is having an official Halloween sprit week! Get ready to come to the studio in a Halloween costume, an old dance costume, or anything else you can come up with! The most important thing is to have fun, but please remember to wear the correct shoes for each of your classes!🎃👻

Spirit week will start Monday, October 25th, and go through Saturday, October 30. There will be no classes Sunday, October 31, as the studio will be closed in celebration of Halloween.

Stay tuned for more fun, we can’t wait to see our spooky dancers🕸🕷

“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!
