We are pleased to invite your daughter to participate in a free dance program called Princesses Ballet! Princesses Ballet is a Greater Cincinnati dance program that is part of City Gospel Mission, a faith-based organization that partners with area churches and connects trained volunteers with girls who desire ballet training. Princesses Ballet is focused on helping girls build character, self-esteem, discipline and a love of dance through committed, stable and encouraging relationships with supportive volunteers. Each dancer will be evaluated periodically throughout the program to assess growth in these areas.
Ballet practice will take place at SOZO Loveland Church 9781 Fields Ertel Road Loveland, OH 45140 beginning Wednesday September 18, 2019 and meeting until May 2020. We will be offering the following classes to the following age groups: 6 yrs. -13 yrs. old, 6:30 PM-8:00 PM.
The dance instructors are trained community volunteers from SOZO Loveland Church. All Princesses Ballet volunteers ages 16+ complete a thorough and comprehensive background security check using a locally and nationally accredited screening program, Sterling Volunteers, to ensure the safety and security of the children participating in the program. Additionally, all dance instruction will take place in a group environment.
If you choose to register your child for Princesses Ballet, the commitment to the program is an entire season (see program dates listed above). There are many students interested in this opportunity and it is important to your child's success that she attend regularly and you are committed to her being present each week. We also ask that you do not pick up your child earlier than 8:00 PM, if avoidable. We ask that parents do not attend dance classes and that each dancer must be able to be independent of their parent/guardian for the duration of the class time. However, parent/guardian demonstrations will be held we will invite you come and see what your student has been accomplishing.
Finally, required practice dance wear (specified leotard, tights and ballet shoes) is available from Diana's Dance Wear at a 30% discounted cost of $30 and the cost is the responsibility of the parent/guardian. Fittings days/times will be communicated.
If you have any questions about the program or the application, please contact me at the number listed below. We look forward to working with your child!
