Dance Companies, Performance Opportunities, and Parent Activities
Performing Companies
Kinetics Dance Theatre’s Performing Companies reach out to the community through workshops and performances, both in house and in the community at senior centers, schools, dance concerts, civic-events and festivals. The Professional Company is comprised of Kinetics Dance Theatre instructors and staff as well as former Kinetics students and dancers from the surrounding area. Kinetics Dance Theatre’s Student and Senior Companies are comprised of dedicated and talented young dancers intermediate through advanced ability, ages 10 and up, in search of opportunities to perform in the communities.

Class Performance Opportunities
2011 Winter Showcase
Enjoy an informal showing of work by all of our classes during the last week of the fall session, right before the holiday break. The students will perform for their parents at the studio in lieu of their regular classes. Refreshments follow!
2012 Spring Showcase
Our end-of-the-year Spring Showcase, held at the Rouse Theatre, is a wonderful experience for all dancers to share their skills with parents, families and friends. All students from ages 3 to adult are encouraged to participate. A $20 performance fee for the first class, and $10 for each additional class, covers the costs for costume rental and maintainance (a significant savings over the expensive costume purchases required
by many studios). Fees are due December 1, 2011. Tickets for the performance are $10 general admission, $15 for both shows. Participating students are given a performer’s ticket.
Parent Observation and Bring a Friend Week
Parents are always invited to watch class through our observation windows. In November and April, we will open our doors to friends who may want to try a dance class as a part of Bring a Friend to Dance Week. During the weeks of November 14 and April 23, students are invited to bring a friend or two to the studio to try a free dance class.
Fundraising at Kinetics
As a non-profit organization, Kinetics Dance Theatre relies on parents’ and students’
support of our yearly fundraisers, such as the Annual Fund Fall Campaign, ticket sales to our five concerts per year, recital program shout-outs/ads, t-shirt and trophy sales, our holiday basket raffle, flowers at the recital and much more! Monies from these fundraisers help Kinetics pay for theatre rentals, exciting programs and workshops, new costumes, guest teachers and choreographers.
Parents’ Night Out
Stay tuned for a new dance event for your little ones, and a little time for yourself! We’ll provide sitters, pizza, dance and entertainment at the studio, while you enjoy a quiet dinner out! (Keep an eye out for some “Santa Time” around the holidays, too!)
Dance Workshops, Field Trips, and Projects
Watch for notices in our newsletter, on our website and posted around the studio. We’ve got some new ideas in the works, including group tickets to professional dance concerts, fun dance workshops for the whole family, and dance projects for our students.
Volunteers
Kinetics welcomes volunteers! If you would like to help us with specific events, provide
general assistance, or share a skill with us, we often need help through the year with performances, workshop events, chaperoning, fundraising, costumes, photography,
music, and more. Please let us know!
Birthday Parties
Don’t forget to ask us about our birthday parties!!! Celebrate your birthday and have a blast dancing with up to 20 of your friends! Each party includes 45 minutes of supervised dance instruction and games with one of our dance instructors and 45 minutes for presents and goodies. Fees: $180 for non-Kinetics families; $160 for Kinetics families. A $50 non-refundable deposit is required to reserve a date. Contact the studio for more information (410) 480-1686.
