Misty Copeland of the American Ballet Theater. Never give up!

Welcome, Lindsey Erling!

The Deep River Ballet Club is pleased to announce that we have a new teacher joining us this fall.  Don't worry, Ms. Steer is still here, she's just not alone. :)

Lindsey Erling will be teaching Beginner, Advanced Beginner and Pre-Primary ballet classes.  In addition, she will be teaching Jazz dance for the following age groups:  6-8, 8-10, pre-tee and teen.  Miss Lindsey's classes will be held on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. 

 

For those wishing to know more about Miss Lindsey, here is her background:

Lindsey Erling started studying Ballet at the age of 5 and continued into high school.  In high school Lindsey started studying both Jazz and Tap dance.  After high school, she completed the 3 year Musical Theatre program at Sheridan College in Oakville, ON.  While there, she studied Ballet, Jazz, Tap, and Dance Performance. Lindsey has worked with many theatre groups in Ontario including The Savoy Society of Ottawa, Orpheus Musical Theatre, GOYA, 9th Hour Theatre Company, Sudbury Theatre Centre, Theatre Sheridan, and The Deep River Musical Society. Lindsey is looking forward to working with the young children here in Deep River and introducing Jazz dance to the Ballet club.

In other news, there is a rumor going around that the class schedules are already set.  Not true!  Other than Ms. Steer being Monday/Wednesday starting at 4 pm and Miss Lindsey being Tuesday/Thursday starting at 5 pm, we don't know when each class will be held as of yet.   We will be working on that in the very near future, though, and we'll let know you ASAP so you can start planning your fall schedule.  Can you believe school starts in only 5 weeks?  Eep!

March 5 Rehearsal Time Change

Another group has the auditorium booked Monday evening, so we are making the following changes to the rehearsal schedule:

• Pre-Primary and Primary: 6:00 pm (same time as Beginners)
• Senior Girls: Same time but in the MCS Multi-purpose Room.

All other class times remain the same.
