Where We've Been and What's to Come

Hello everyone! We had such a wonderful fall semester filled with love and laughter! We started the year by bringing some of our friends to dance class and sharing our Halloween costumes with our dance friends. In November, we enjoyed our first Thanksgiving feast with the families of Dance Fusion. We wrapped up the year with our Christmas party and ornament exchange! Of course the year was filled with lots of dancing and new friendships! This semester, we look forward to the celebration of our 15th recital! We are so thankful for our families and can’t wait to see what’s in store for Spring 2023!
