Dear Tiller Staff Member,
We invite you to join us for our 3rd annual “Tiller Dancing with the Staff” Showcase!
This unique experience puts dance students in the teaching roles as they put together a routine customized just for you! You don’t need any prior dance experience to participate, we’ll teach you all you need to know. This is your moment to be the star of the show and compete to win the TILLER BALL TROPHY!
Stage fright? There are other fun ways to be involved! Come to our Boot Camp for a mini workout and/or attend our Showcase to cheer on your fellow staff members on Friday, February 27th.
