What a lovely Concert Weekend

It is pure magic to watch our students on stage and see the growth happening right before our eyes. Our Winter Concert, Cookies and Cocoa gave just a sneak peek of what’s ahead — from our tiny twos discovering their confidence to our most advanced dancers stepping boldly into their artistry. These moments remind us why we do what we do.

As I sit with it all, I am overwhelmed with gratitude for our team. Who you work with matters. The people you surround yourself with matter. And we are incredibly lucky — every teacher who walks into our studios brings light, kindness, joy, and the signature Dancing House spirit. Their energy ripples straight into our students, our families, and our community.

We know we’re a little different — and proudly so. We keep classes small, we lead with heart, we teach the whole human, and we believe dance should always be the “Highlight of Your Week.” That’s the heart of TDH, and weekends like this remind us how special it truly is.

As always, we’re here every other week to share highlights, updates, and all the things you’ll want to know as we head into the new year. So grab a warm drink, take a peek below, and make sure you’re in the loop.

And if we don’t see you before Christmas, we’re wishing you the most joyful, peaceful, love-filled holiday season yet. Thank you for being part of The Dancing House family. For those already registered for 2026 — we can’t wait to welcome you back in the new year!

With so much appreciation,
💛 The Dancing House

Nursing Home Performances THIS WEEK!

It’s one of our favorite traditions of the year—for our staff, for our students, and for the beautiful people we dance for. Each winter, The Dancing House teams head into local senior homes to share joy, connection, and a little sparkle through the gift of performance. These moments are truly special. Not only do our dancers get another opportunity to shine, but they also make a meaningful impact in the lives of residents who may not get out as often or have many visitors this time of year.

We know December is busy for everyone (trust us—we feel it too!), but if you’re able to join us, please know how much your time and presence

I am so glad that we found The Dancing House! The flexibility of the 6 week sessions has been a great fit for our family. My daughter loves Miss Melissa and I love how she teaches! The recital program is put on very well and the kids have a great time. We also enjoy signing up for the mini camps that are offered throughout the year.
