Welcome Back! Please read in full

Hi Encore Families,

IMPORTANT – Please read this email in full before attending your classes this week.

Welcome back to another exciting year at Encore Your Dance Family!

We have so much to look forward to — our annual Showcase, competitions, our End of Year Concert… and something very special…

✨ The launch of our 2027 Japan Tour Team! ✨More information will be coming soon, but we are so excited about what this opportunity will bring and cannot wait to share more with you.

As we begin the year, we want to start strong — with pride in our presentation and respect for our studio standards.

Encore is a Uniform Studio

Uniform is compulsory for every class.

At Encore, we have a vast range of uniform options available. Students may choose the styles they feel most comfortable and confident in from our Encore selections, but all items must be official Encore uniform pieces.

The only exception is Ballet, which requires:

• Leotard

• Tights

• Ballet shoes

• Hair in a bun

Uniform order forms are available on the reception desk and must be completed by the end of this week if you are not yet fully organised.

Teachers will be enforcing uniform standards this year.

Correct Shoes for Each Class

Please ensure you are arriving prepared with the correct footwear:

• Ballet – Ballet shoes

• Jazz / Jumps Kicks Turns – Jazz shoes

• Hip Hop – Runners

• Acrobatics / Lyrical / Contemporary – No shoes required

Hair Expectations

As our intermediate students, you are still leaders within our studio and younger dancers look up to you.

Hair must be securely tied back and off your face for every class. This shows respect for your teachers and ensures you are fully prepared to work and focus.

We are so proud of the standard our intermediate group sets at Encore. Let’s continue to lift that standard in 2026 — in presentation, discipline, and the way we represent our studio.

Uniform order forms will remain on the reception desk until the end of this week.

We cannot wait to see what this year brings for you all.

With excitement for the year ahead,Miss KateEncore Your Dance Family
