We are so happy to say that after working through some logistics, we are PROUD and THRILLED to bring back the Dad's Dance and of course, the Mom's Dance too!
Historically, our dad's and mom's dance have been a hit of the show, however after Covid we struggled with the right way to reintroduce this to our recital weekend system, and of course to our busy parent's schedules. We feel this launch will be a smooth way to get our parents and parental figures back on the stage!
These dances perform in each show we have all weekend long, but you only need to perform in the show your child is participating in.
In our "Dad's Dance", we do have our dancers participate with their dad or father figure for a portion of the dance. This gives our students an opportunity to show dad their own moves and work together on a fun project!
Our "Mom's Dance" usually just has participation from the mother figure only, as of course we all know where they get their moves from! ;)
PLEASE NOTE: JCDA welcomes Mother & Father figures to participate in our dances!
We know families come in all shapes and sizes, and opportunities like this are meant to foster opportunity for our dance community!

STEP FOUR:
Attend at least ONE rehearsal!
While we would love for all of our parents to attend all rehearsals for their dance, we know that isn't always possible.
However, in order to participate, please plan to attend at least one rehearsal so Miss Jackie can answer your questions, help you in making adjustments, and be sure you are prepared for the stage!
These rehearsals will help clean up the movement and review small segments, but wont be used to teach the full dance thoroughly. Please be sure you watch and use those videos and come prepared!
Parents may come to as many rehearsals as they wish!
