We hope you all managed to stay cool throughout this week of super summer here in Victoria!

Are you getting excited for next week? Classes go back on Monday, 5 February and we are counting down!

TUITION

Tuition payments are now available on the parent portal. Everyone who signed up to our convenient new Autopay system: the first portion of your term fee will be charged tonight.

29 January (TODAY)- 1 third of tuition payments
26 Feb - 2nd payment
26 March - 3rd payment.

(Example: if your tuition is $180 per term, your card will be charged $60 on 29 January, $60 on 26 Feb and $60 on 26 March)

Any questions re tuition/ payments/ enrolments, please feel free to email sarah_olsson@yahoo.com.au - we will get back to you asap.

Thank you to everyone who has already paid for the term in full.

ENROLMENTS

We know that a few of you are planning on coming along to term 1, but haven't had a chance to enrol yet. Please note, classes are filling up and we cannot magically make our studios bigger, so we have to cap numbers. To avoid disappointment, please hop over to the parent portal now and enrol.

"Every time I dance I turn into a better version of me."

iDance | TIME CHANGE

Calling all year 6 and 7 students: A little birdie told us...that the Thursday iDance times didn't suit a lot of you, so we have listened and changed time and date for you!

New iDance times:
Monday nights, 4-5pm with Sherree.

I can't wait to see your kicks, leaps, turns, jumps, head flicks and most importantly - biggest smiles!!! We work on technique, flexibility, skills and most importantly developing the joy of dance and performance in our gorgeous students. Come and join the fun!

ASSISTANT TEACHER TRAINING

Thank you for the great applications for our assistant teacher training that we have received so far. You are wonderful and we cannot wait to work with you!

Our training program is great for experience and training in teaching, working within a team, learning responsibility and leadership...and well, anyone planning on entering the workforce in the future. We are able to provide references to potential employers for all successful assistant teachers.

Applications for our Assistant Teacher Program close this Wednesday, 31 Jan, so if you haven't gotten your application form in yet, please do so asap. You can find the form on the parent portal.

I can't wait to see you!

ASSISTANT TEACHER TRAINING

Our assistant teacher training is designed to nurture a student’s desire to teach. We will help students to identify the different aspects involved in being a Dance Educator. Students who are interested in learning the art of teaching dance are encouraged to apply as well as students who are willing or interested in taking on more responsibility in a guided environment.

We have run this program for years and we are thrilled to expand on it this year and include a workbook and some more formal education as extra value in this free program for our students. We truly believe in the importance of investing in the future of our students and are passionate about passing on some of our most valued skills to the next generation of educators.

Term 1 Dates | Open Day | Assistant Teacher Program

View this email in your browser

Hello Dancers and Parents,

Firstly, a huge welcome back to all our returning students this year. We are so excited to see you all again and cannot wait to watch you grow leaps and bounds this year!

We are thrilled to welcome lots of new faces to our Dance Family this year as well: Welcome to Impetus, thank you for joining our wonderful crew! We are confident that you will find Impetus an inviting studio that will make you feel at home in no time.

As term one gets closer, we are going to start the year off with a bit of housekeeping to make sure you are all ready to go!

TERM 1 - START DATE
I know, I know - you are all as desperate as me to get back dancing and the good news is: not long now! Our first term starts in the week starting February 5, so your first day will be the respective day your class is on in that week.

WHAT TO WEAR
Dress Code: Look like a dancer- feel like a dancer.

We do not enforce a specific uniform is required, but please wear suitable dance clothing (eg. bike shorts/ leggings/singlet/t-shirt/leotard). No denim, school or sports uniforms, non-stretch clothing or long dresses. Tutus are absolutely welcome, but pointy wings are a bit...pointy. Leave your jewellery at home and save it flying off, breaking, getting caught in clothes or hair, bouncing up and chipping your teeth or getting lost. We will have amazing Impetus t-shirts, tanks and hoodies and our brand new sparkly bows for sale at class!

We generally dance in bare feet, jazz shoes or foot undeez at Impetus. We like to feel the floor and develop all those lovely foot muscles. Sneakers are appropriate for Hip Hop and GO!Dance.

ASSISTANT TEACHERS
We are very excited to be launching our new student teacher program in 2018. This will be an extension of our existing student teacher program ensuring that our wonderful assistants get the most out of their experience. If you or your dancer is currently in year 8 or older and would love to be considered for an assistant teacher position, please head over to our parent portal and fill in the form under share files. Please bring the form to Open Day and give to Jean or email it back to impetusdance@gmail.com by January 24th and we will have a chat about it with you.

OPEN DAY
We are holding a fun open day full of classes for our younger students on 24 January. We are inviting all of our existing students to come along for a dance class to get back into the groove.

Please feel free to invite along any friends who are interested in what Impetus has to offer. We would love to meet them (because your friends are our friends!) and they might love it so much - they want to join up and you would get to dance together. How good would that be!?!

WHAT?
We will be running super fun combo classes for above age groups at the times, so please come ready to dance!

We also invite you or your friends to come along if you just want to say 'hello', ask a question face to face, meet our team or your teacher (most teachers will be there during the day) or if you want any help enrolling. We will be there from 10am - 3pm and would love to see you pop in.

Please register here - we will send you a reminder a couple of days before and will send out the timetable for the day again as well.

WHERE?
IMPETUS STUDIOS
Cnr Aphrasia & Talbot Sts, Newtown
