It’s our favorite time of year – festival time!
But first things first:
What is Festival?
Festival is a special time of year where we celebrate our students’ accomplishments and set goals for the future. It’s an exciting few weeks of fun parties, daily participation themes, and individual challenges.
There are so many opportunities to get involved in festival, and the best part is: everything you participate in benefits YOU (and your instructor!)
So what happens first?
Sponsorship
Sponsoring festival means that you partner with us to make this wonderful event happen! You can help your teacher be eligible for our regional festival contest where they can win top teacher awards. Everybody wins when you sponsor! Talk to your instructor about how to become a sponsor.
How else can you get involved and reap rewards?
POINTS
Basically, everything you do to participate in festival will earn you points. This festival, students will get points for all the normal activities (listed below), but there will be ways to earn EXTRA points. Students pick which theme to dress up in that day. A winner will be drawn, and everyone who chose that theme will receive extra points!
So how do you earn those points?
Lessons, Group Classes, Buddy Lessons – Every time you come in to take any type of lesson, you get points! So make sure to call today and get your lessons scheduled ASAP!
Parties – Our parties are themed and work like group classes. Pick which theme you want to do and a winning theme will be drawn. Parties will have games and/or prizes, snacks and, of course, dancing!
Guests* – Festival is a perfect time to bring in your friends to try out ballroom dancing! The whole month is full of fun, the studio is decorated, and bringing in guests benefits you and your teacher! Qualified guests* who sign up for the guest special = free lessons for you! See info on qualified guests at the bottom of this page. Guests earn you the highest points by far! (Think in the thousands). We also have a Top Guest Getter Prize this year that is HUGE. Ask you instructor how you can receive 6 or more free lessons with guests!
Dress-up/Daily participation – Now is the time to try out all our different group classes. Come in every chance you get to earn points. Also, check the festival calendar for that day’s theme. Dressing up and participating in that theme will earn you even more points!
