Wall Down Week at the Dance Spectrum, May 31st - June 6th.

​

During Wall Down Week, your dancer will attend class on their regular day and time.

No costumes this week. Dancers should wear regular dance clothes, the correct dance shoes, and have hair

pulled back.

​

What is Wall Down Week?

Beginning Saturday, May 31, the wall between Studios #2 and #3 will be removed, creating a large open space (44’ x 30’) that simulates the Shea’s stage.

This valuable rehearsal week gives students and teachers the opportunity to:

-Practice without mirrors, perform in front of other dancers and adjust to stage spacing and conditions

It’s a fun and exciting step in preparing for the big show!
