Safari of Fun Summer Dance Adventure
Come monkey around with us for 4 days as we tour the fun world of jazz dancing! Boys and girls ages 5-9
are invited to join the adventure from
Monday, June 23-Thursday, June 26, 9:30-noon each day.

Activities
include jazz-based dance classes, jungle-theme crafts that form a "costume" for the final
performance for the parents, healthy snacks, and creative movement games, among other fun things. Miss
Tracy introduces children to jazz dance while challenging their thinking, building their young bodies, and
encouraging their imagination and self-expression. All of this, plus lions and tigers and bears, oh my!

Cost: $95 per child paid in advance, no registration fee

Wear: Comfy clothes the kids can move freely in, with socks or bare feet

Notes: A minimum of 6 students must be enrolled in order to go on the Safari of Fun. Should we be forced
to cancel, registrants will receive a
full refund, plus a $5 discount on their summer or fall registration fee, if
they wish to dance with us in either summer or fall classes. A
maximum of 16 kids will be accepted. Should
enrollment exceed 10, an
assistant or 2 will help Miss Tracy with extra hands and extra love! Each registrant
will also receive a $5 coupon toward a new pair of dance shoes, available at Footsteps' Fall Open Houses in
August.
Summer Dance Sampler
Get a taste of 4 different kinds of dance with 2 classes each in jazz, ballet, tap, and hip hop. Classes are 60
minutes each, twice a week
. This is a wonderful option for those who wish to try dancing but don't know
which kind would best suit them. Try a nibble of each, then choose one or two to really chew on in fall classes!

The Summer Dance Sampler is for
boys and girls ages 7+.

Classes meet on
Tuesdays and Wednesdays 4:00-5:00. If you cannot attend all 4 weeks, don't panic! You
may sign up for
2, 3, or 4 weeks; just please indicate which weeks you will attend on your registration form.

Weeks:
   Jazz--June 24 & 25
   Ballet--July 1 & 2
   Tap--July 15 & 16
   Hip Hop--July 22 & 23

Cost:
   4 weeks--$120 + $10 registration fee
   3 weeks--$90 + $10 registration fee
   2 weeks--$60 + $10 registration fee

Wear:
   Comfy shorts or pants kids can move freely in, your
free color-your-own Footsteps Summer Dance
Sampler T-shirt
, socks or shoes as the instructor suggests. We have a borrow box of shoes that you're
welcome to use; and if none of those fit, socks are great! For tap, any hard-soled shoes that won't fly off while
dancing will suffice, if none of our borrowable tap shoes fit.

Notes:
    A
minimum of 6 dancers must be enrolled in order to keep the Summer Dance Sampler on the menu, so
bring a buddy! Should we be forced to cancel, registrants will receive a
full refund, plus a $5 discount on
their summer or fall registration fee, if they wish to dance with us in the fall. The
registration fee is
non-refundable
and will apply to fall if you enroll in fall classes before October 1, 2008. Each Dance Sampler

free color-your-own Footsteps Summer Dance Sampler T-shirt and 3 colorful fabric
markers
with which to decorate it, along with a $5 coupon toward a new pair of dance shoes, available at
Footsteps' Fall Open Houses in August!
Kids Ballet, Jazz, & Tap
In summer we offer a mixed-age pre-ballet class as part of our Genesis Ballet Program. For details about all
the ways we learn and have fun in
Genesis classes, please refer to our "Classes" page. The older kids act as
role models and helpers for the younger ones as they all learn basic ballet together--it truly is darling to watch!

When:
  
5:45-6:30 on the following dates: Thursday, June 26; Thursday, July 3; Thursday, July 17; and Friday, July 18.
Strange schedule, but we are working around taking our older dancers out of town for special dance
competitions!

Wear:
  
Girls: Any solid color leotard & ballet skirt, or dance dress (leotard with attached skirt), white socks, pink
leather ballet shoes; if you plan to enroll in Footsteps
fall Genesis classes, please check our "About Us" page
for the
proper dress code color outfit, so you don't waste money on the wrong color! Hair out off face in
pigtails or ponytail. We have a borrow box of shoes that you're welcome to use for the summer.
 
 Boys: White T-shirt, black shorts or sweat pants, white socks, black leather ballet shoes

Cost: $11/class; for further info, see Tuition & Registration below.

Notes: A
minimum of 6 dancers must be enrolled in order to keep the summer Genesis Ballet class open, so
bring a buddy! Should we be forced to cancel, registrants will receive a
full refund, plus a $5 discount on their
summer or fall registration fee, if they wish to dance with us in the fall. The
registration fee is non-refundable
and will
apply to fall if you enroll in fall classes before October 1, 2008. All dancers will receive a $5 coupon
toward a new pair of dance shoes
, available at Footsteps' Fall Open Houses in August!
Ages 3-6
Ages 7+
Summer is a terrific time to try something new, and many students opt to begin a new style of dance during our
short summer session. Dancers who have
never studied tap, jazz, or ballet can get a crash course in the
basics
in our Intro Seminars. Intro Seminars are required for dancers with no prior experience to join our
Beginner levels in the fall; Summer Intro dancers can slip right into Beginner classes after just
4 Intro classes.
On the other hand, those who opt to take their Intro in the fall may have to take up to 8 Intro classes! Summer is
the perfect time to learn your Intro material in longer, less-populated classes. Choose from 3 dance forms.

When:
   Intro to Jazz--Mondays 4:45-5:45
   Intro to Ballet--Mondays 4:00-5:00
   Intro to Tap--Thursdays 3:45-4:45 (The studio will be closed Thursday, July 24 for our older dancers' trip to
Cincinnati for a national dance competition. That day's classes will be held on Friday, July 18 instead, 3:45-4:45.)

Experienced dancers who are new to Footsteps should call us at 614-883-5599 for a placement evaluation.
Feel free to check our "Schedules" page for the complete Summer Schedule, including all Beginner-Advanced
ballet, tap, and jazz classes.

Cost: $12/class; for further info, see Tuition & Registration below.

Wear: Please refer to our "About Us" page for our dress code. Ballet Intro dancers should follow the Ruby
(Beginner) level for leotard color. We have a borrow box of shoes you're welcome to borrow for the summer.

Notes: A minimum of 6 dancers must be enrolled in order to keep the Summer Intro Seminars open, so bring a
buddy! Should we be forced to cancel, registrants will receive a
full refund, plus a $5 discount on their summer
or fall registration fee, if they wish to dance with us in the fall. The
registration fee is non-refundable and will
apply to fall if you enroll in fall classes before October 1, 2008. All dancers will receive a $5 coupon toward a
new pair of dance shoes
, available at Footsteps' Fall Open Houses in August!
One should never be too old to jump for joy! Our adult classes offer not only great exercise and personal
challenge, but great camaraderie as well. Some of our grown-up dancers danced when they were children;
others wished they had but stepped out of their comfort zones to join us later in life. Whatever your situation, our
adult tap, jazz, and ballet classes are worth stepping into just for fun!

When:
  Adult Jazz--Mondays 6:45-7:45
  Adult Tap--Tuesdays 8:00-9:00
  Adult Ballet--Thursdays 7:00-8:00 (The studio will be closed Thursday, July 24 for our older dancers' trip to
Cincinnati for a national dance competition. That day's classes will be held on Friday, July 18 instead, 7:00-8:00.)

Cost: $12/class; for further info, see Tuition & Registration below.

Wear: Please refer to our "About Us" page for our dress code. Adults are more about comfort than conformity!
We have a borrow box of shoes you're welcome to borrow for the summer.

Notes: A minimum of 4 dancers must be enrolled in order to keep the Summer Adult Classes open, so bring a
buddy! Should we be forced to cancel, registrants will receive a
full refund, plus a $5 discount on their summer
or fall registration fee, if they wish to dance with us in the fall. The
registration fee is non-refundable and will
apply to fall if you enroll in fall classes before October 1, 2008. All dancers will receive a $5 coupon toward a
new pair of dance shoes
, available at Footsteps' Fall Open Houses in August!
Adults Ballet, Jazz, & Tap
Tuition & Registration
Summer tuition must be paid in full, plus the registration fee if one applies, upon registration for summer
classes. Summer registration fees are
non-refundable, even if we have to cancel the class for low enrollment.
All
summer registration fees apply to fall if you register for fall classes before October 1, 2008.

Payment methods that Footsteps accepts are cash, checks, Visa, Mastercard, & Discover. Checks should be
made payable to "Footsteps."

Should
multiple family members wish to enjoy summer classes at Footsteps, or should one dancer wish to
take
multiple classes, we offer the following discounts:

    5% discount for 2nd class per family
    10% discount for 3rd+ classes per family

There are
no discounts on Safari of Fun Summer Dance Adventure or Summer Dance Sampler costs.

Because so many families take vacations during our summer session, we offer all classes for
payment by the
week
--you only pay for the weeks of classes you are taking. Please note that this policy only applies to summer
classes! There is no prorating for Safari of Fun days, however--the fee is $95 whether you attend all 4 days, or
fewer.

To register for any of Footsteps' summer programs, please visit our "Downloads" page, print and completely fill
out the appropriate forms, and
mail them plus payment in full to.....

                                                    Footsteps Family Dance Center
                                                              8714 Cotter St
                                                      Lewis Center, OH 43035

Of course, you're always welcome to
stop in during business hours, Monday-Thursday 4-9 pm, or Tuesday
mornings 9:30-11:30, to tour the facility, ask questions, watch classes, and fill out your paperwork. All forms
must be completed for a student to be registered for summer classes. We do not do online registration at this
time.

For those who wish to remain a part of the Footsteps family for our 2008-09 season, you may take advantage of
Early-Bird Fall Registration, which runs May 1-July 23. Early-Birds receive $5 off their registration fee, plus
first-pick of days and times for fall classes! Again, your summer registration fees apply to fall, too.

All summer dancers receive a
$5 coupon toward a new pair of dance shoes, available at Footsteps during
our Fall Open Houses in August. Many dancers borrow shoes for the summer session before they decide to
invest in their own for fall; if you are one of these dancers, it'll be convenient to upgrade when Footsteps offers
ballet, tap, and jazz shoes, as well as all other Beginner Level dress code items, for advance order during Open
Houses. Just stop on in and we'll have you try on our sizers, then order your items and redeem your coupon.
Your brand new dance attire will be waiting for you on your first day of classes in our 2008-09 season! These
items will only be available during Open Houses--once classes start, they'll be gone.
