10. 💌 A NOTE FROM MS. BRITTANY
Last night I listened to a podcast by Jay Shetty on “3 Science-Backed Habits that Will Make You Feel Better Every Day”. The three things were: move your body, focus your attention, and prioritize relationships. As I was listening to this, it made me think that all three of those things we work on every day inside our dance studio walls. We have built such an incredible dance community that is so caring and supportive. Thank you all for being here to experience this magic with me <3

🎉 Dance Starts Next Week! Important 2026–2027 Season Information
Hi Dance Families!
We are SO excited to officially kick off our 2026–2027 dance season next week! 💃🕺
Classes begin the week of September 14th, and we can't wait to see everyone back in the studio!
📅 Check Your Class Schedule
You will receive an email this Friday with your class confirmations, but you don't have to wait! You can log into your Dance Studio Pro account anytime to view your current class schedule.
💰 Save 10% When You Pay Tuition in Full
Want to save on tuition? You can receive 10% off your tuition when you pay for the full season by Friday, September 18th.
To calculate your pay-in-full amount:
Your monthly tuition × 5.4 = Pay-in-full amount
For example, if your monthly tuition is $100:
$100 × 5.4 = $540 pay in full
That's a savings of $60 compared to paying $600 over the six-month billing period!
🎭 NEW: Family Performance Fee
We have made a few changes to our recital costs this season to make things simpler for families.
A $79 Family Performance Fee will be due March 1st.
This fee includes:
🎟️ 2 recital tickets for our May recital
📸 Access to ALL Photo Day pictures
🎥 Access to the recital recording
No need to purchase these items separately!
✨ NEW Dancer Benefits This Season
We are also excited to offer some new benefits designed to support our dancers both inside and outside of the classroom:
🩰 Bi-Weekly Studio Open Hours
Every other Friday from 4:00–6:00 PM, dancers can use the studio to practice, work on skills, stretch, or simply spend time dancing.
💪 Monthly Dancer Wellness Sessions
Each month we'll focus on different aspects of dancer wellness, including strength, flexibility, injury prevention, nutrition, mindset, and more.
🏃♀️ Physical Therapy Evaluations
All dancers will have access to physical therapy evaluations to help identify potential concerns, improve movement, and support healthy dancing.
We are so excited about everything we have planned for this season. Our goal is to make NSD more than just a place to take dance classes — we want it to be a place where dancers feel connected, supported, confident, and part of a community. ❤️
Thank you for trusting us with your dancers. We can't wait to get started!
See you in the studio next week!

As we get ready for our Summer Recital, here are a few important reminders:
• Recital Information & Tickets
Visit https://www.nsd.dance/summer-season-2026 for recital details, schedules, and to purchase your recital tickets.
• Flower Orders Due Next Monday
Celebrate your dancer's big day with a beautiful recital bouquet! Flower orders are due next Monday and can be purchased through the ticket link on our website.
• Recital t-shirts will be available for pick up next week. They will be in the lobby. Besides the t-shirt, dancers need black bottoms for their "costume". Leggings, shorts, pants, skirt, etc.
• Fall Registration is Open
We'd love to keep the dancing going! Our Fall Season begins the week of September 14th, and we can't wait to welcome everyone back for another amazing year.
As
a special thank you for being part of our Summer Season, use code SUMMER when you register for fall and receive $50 off your registration fee.
• Share the Love of Dance
Do you have a friend, neighbor, or family member who has been thinking about trying dance? We'd love to meet them! When you refer a new student who enrolls, you'll receive a $25 gift card as our way of saying thank you.
Thank you for choosing Neighborhood School of Dance and allowing us to be part of your family's journey. Your dancers inspire us every day, and we're so grateful to watch them grow in confidence, friendships, and a love for dance.
Let's make these last two weeks of summer unforgettable—we can't wait to celebrate with you at the recital!
If you have any questions at all, please reach out by text (716-373-3330) or email. We're always happy to help and can't wait to hear from you!
See you at the studio!
With gratitude,
Ms. Brittany
