Lo-Ru West Dance Studio


2011 Heroes...... You are all mine!

June 22, 2011
WOW!  with tears in the eyes.  This has been the main phrase and reaction I have received from members of the audience who attended the 2011 Hero Program.  I too, concur with the audience.  I am very proud of what the Lo-Ru West Studio dancers have achieved in a 3 years.  We are coming right along.

We will continue to strive to become better and better.  As I have always said, Great things come out of small packages!

With Summer???( the weather could be a little nicer) upon us, I hesitate to take ANY time off.  Just as I get you all in condition, ready to push into harder combinations and technique, its summer vacation time and everyone scatters for a while.  I trust as you enjoy your time off, you put in a little bit of stretching and strength building into your daily routine of sleeping in!

It is funny... only two short weeks have gone by and the spies are out already trying to find out what music I have been listening too for the 2012 February performance.  I welcome all and any guesses!  It looks like this is turning into a spy game of sorts   how fun is that!  I can say, with God as my guide, it will be nothing short of SPECTACULAR!

I just have to say something about our trip to Sioux Falls and the dancers who participated with me.  Great Job!  I wished a few more of you could have traveled east.  NEXT YEAR!  Start planning now.  It is good time for you to jump out of your comfort zone and see what another studio does and the dancers who attend there.  Sounds like an army recruitment statement... See the world and meet new people!

Day one was funny to watch our 5 dancers be a little nervous not knowing what was going to happen or if they would be able to do any of the combinations that were asked of them. MMMMM  Miss Robin is not the only "Crazy Teacher" in this world!  Thanks Miss Jackie!   The look on the 5 faces and to watch the confidence grow really quick when they understood exactly what the teacher was talking about.  Priceless!

Well, time to start listening to more music and finishing up paperwork on statements, planning 4thof July, summer intensive schedule and fall registration forms.  They will be listed on the website soon!

Again, Outstanding Job on the recital.  I'm very happy with our results!  Any time you can evoke strong happy emotions out of the audience, you did your job!

See you soon----- July 1 10:00am for those who want to dance at the fair!

All my love-
Miss Robin

My Goodness Where did the time go??

April 16, 2011
This is just too crazy!  My last post was Jan 24th!  What have I been doing? mmmmmmmm  I wonder........

Now that it is nearly the end of April we only have a few weeks left in our season.  That is just insane to me!  Swashbuckled was a HUGE success and I am so happy for all my dancers.  You were outstanding!  I cannot wait for the upcoming end of the year review to show off ALL the classes.

Things have been moving right along.  I have been sewing up a storm to help keep costume costs way down t...

ONLY 4 Weeks to go!

January 24, 2011
Well this is just too crazy to think about.  I looked at the calendar and we only have 4 weeks left until the SwashBuckled Production!

After coming back from a long Christmas break we are starting to get our conditioning back!  This I am very happy about!  Soloists are coming right along and the groups: Good Pirates, Bad Pirates, Skeletons, and little Mermaids are looking terrific!

After the passing of my father a couple of weeks ago, my brain simply turned to mush and I apologize for that!  I ...

Preparing for the 2010-2011 Season

July 10, 2010
Where does the time go?  The July 4th performance and the 2010 Summer Camp are now history.

Summer Camp was great and all my dedicated dancers found out the hard way how out of shape you can get in a short period of time!

As we head into mid-summer it is up to you to keep moving and strengthening yourselves until I get you back in August.  You all know what you have to do.  My guys----100 push-ups is the goal!  My girls......ankles ankles ankles, lower backs and arms....you know what you have t...

2010 World Tour Success!

June 21, 2010
Well, we made it through another season!  I am very excited for all the improvements that have been made this season.  We had done a lot.  2 Major, well danced performances in one season is a great accomplishment!  I am very proud of all my students.  I have had a lot of feedback of how much you all have improved since last year!  That should make you feel good and want to push onward.

It's funny, I have been asked "What are you planning for the next performances?"  I have to laugh is my only ...

Where did this season go???

June 5, 2010
Can you believe it?  We only have a week and a half to go before showtime!  I am so excited for all of you.  Tremendous goals have been achieved this season and I look forward to a great future with you!  I cannot express enough what great potential you dancers have in front of you.  We still need to work hard and push ourselves but nothing is just given to you.  You have to work for it.  Use your God given talent and see what happens.  Dance doesn't just happen in the studio or on a stage.  ...

Only 4 weeks left to go and it's showtime!

May 18, 2010
The pace is beginning to pick up and classes are running along nicely.  A few bumps here and there but that is to be expected.

We only have a few more weeks to go.  Remember, I am giving the holiday weekend off.  Both Friday, May 28 and May 31 off.  We will have the long make up time in the theatre on June 14th!  Everyone enjoy!

Time to start gathering tights, shoes, costumes, headpieces, etc.  Clean them up and put a shine on!  It's almost here.  You are looking good but I know things could us...
