NRG Dance Convention – Final Schedule Updated

Final schedule is now available for NRG Dance Convention in Atlanta this weekend (January 24-25).  

To Do’s for NRG:

  1. CHAPERONE. WE ARE STILL IN NEED OF VOLUNTEER CHAPERONES FOR THE TEEN ROOM ON SUNDAY! There are 40 dancers in this room and currently no chaperones signed up. If you are available to chaperone the event, please Click here to access the SignUp Genius to sign up to chaperone.  You can also access the Signup Genius in the NRG document linked on the web page above.
  2. CARPOOL. Your Group Mom will be coordinating the transportation plan for your group to and from the Hotel (groups generally car pool).  We find that having the group mom coordinate this for each team works out best for the team.  She will be in touch soon with planning.

Private Lesson Signup Genius

Please everyone take a minute to review the rules for signing your dancer up for a private lesson. We are working to ensure everyone has an equal opportunity. It takes a lot of time and effort to continue to make sure everyone is following the same procedures.

Cheryl has updated the Private Lesson Signup Genius. Click here to access the Signup Genius. Everyone must wait until they receive the email before signing up.

Make sure that you note on the Signup Genius whether you are signing up for your dancer’s solo, duo, or trio rehearsal.   Please make sure that only 1 mom or dancer signs up for a given slot for a duo or trio.

You may only sign up for one slot each time new dates are posted. After 3 days, if there are still spots open, dancers who do not have a solo/duo/trio and would just like a private lesson for technique are eligible to book. These dancers should be prepared to come to their private lesson with an agenda of what they want to work on. 

Dancers, please remember the following:

  • Please bring your music to the private lesson.
  • Please bring payment (Note: fee increase to $45 for a 30 minute session for both Madison & Cheryl) at the start of each rehearsal.  There is no option to have this charge added to your FootNotes account.  All dancers must pay the instructor directly by either check, Venmo, or cash.
  • If your dancer is unable to attend your booked rehearsal session, you must notify FootNotes at footnotesdance@comcast.net, at least 24 hours ahead of your scheduled time.   If you ‘miss’/forget a rehearsal that you have signed up for, you are still responsible for the payment to the instructor.
  • As always, dancers are always free to book an empty room to practice on their own.

Studio Booking Process

We will be using Calendly to book rooms for practices and/or to log your required rehearsals for solo, duo or trios. Click here to access the FootNotes booking page on Calendly.

  • Solos, duos or trios must log 1 hour each month in the studio on your own. 
  • These bookings are for rehearsing/practicing, not playtime. 
  • These bookings are dancers only. No parents are allowed in the studios unless the dancer is under the age of 11. 
  • Dancers are not allowed to share the room with any other dancer while logging your required rehearsal time (except in a duo or trio). It is on your own. 
  • Dancers 5th grade or younger are not allowed to share the room with other dancers at any time. You may have a parent present if needed. 
  • Bookings are done in 15 minute time slots. You may book for up to 2 slots a day. We will see how this goes before placing any other restrictions. 
  • You will get a confirmation email once the booking is confirmed.
  • You will be charged at the end of each month with a fee of $5.00 per 15 minute slot.  
  • Your booking is subject to cancellation due to changes in room availability. At which time you will receive a cancellation notice via email.

In Studio Dress Rehearsals

In Studio Dress Rehearsals have been updated on the Master Calendar. Please make sure you keep your dancer’s schedule updated, and remember ALL rehearsals are mandatory from here on out.  

In Studio Dress Rehearsals

Dancers and Moms are required for In Studio Dress Rehearsals for each group.  See dates by group below. Here is what to bring/expect:   

  • This is a FULL COSTUME/dress rehearsal at the Studio for both the dancer and mom to learn what will be required with all costumes. It is very important that moms attend at their group’s designated time, especially for the older groups (Prodigy, Premier, Elite), in case there are other alterations needed or undergarments that need to be purchased.   NOTE: If you are unable to attend, please ask another mom in your group to work with your dancer during Dress Rehearsal to relay information to you about any costume adjustments, etc. that are needed for your daughter.  
  • This ‘dress rehearsal’ is when costumes will be tried on, checked for alterations and changes needed, etc. The dancers will run through their dances in the costume to confirm that it is “stage ready.”   Competition Hair and Make-up are not required for this Dress Rehearsal.
  • Please bring ALL costumes (that you have in hand), AND, please make sure that ALL pieces of the costume are labeled with your dancer’s name.  Bring competition shoes. Tights will be determined at dress rehearsal.    
  • Please be on time!   
  • If your dancer’s Dress Rehearsal is scheduled at the studio during their class time, they will still have class before or after their group’s scheduled Dress Rehearsal time.
    • Bravo –  Wednesday, January 28th 4:00pm-5:00pm 
    • Ovation –  Friday, February 6th  5:00-7:00pm
    • Nova – Friday, February 6th 5:00-7:00pm
    • Prodigy – Monday, February 2nd  7:00-8:30pm
    • Premier – Tuesday, February 3rd  7:30-9:00pm
    • Elite – Sunday, February 8th  1:00-3:00pm

Showcase Ticket Sales Information

Tickets are $25 online sales, via our ticketing website, and $30 per ticket on the day of the show (to be sold at the venue).

Each Vibe family is required to sell, purchase or donate at least 10 tickets or $250 to Showcase (between the 2 shows) per Vibe Member Contract. Remember to place your dancer’s name into the “Dancer’s Name” field during the Checkout process (at the time of purchase) since we are tracking # of tickets sold by dancer family. Tickets purchased for a dancer who has already met the 10 ticket requirement cannot be transferred to another dancer who has not yet met the 10 ticket obligation.  

We ask that you please refrain from buying unused or unwanted tickets to simply meet the 10 ticket requirement per the Vibe Member Contract to allow for more seating options for guests who can attend the show.  Ticket purchase process:

    • Please purchase the exact number of tickets for your guests who have committed to attending the show.
    • Please do NOT purchase tickets if you have not received commitment from guests to attend a show only to meet your 10 ticket commitment.
    • If your 10 ticket obligation or donation amount is not met after online ticket sales close to the public, you will be invoiced for the remaining balance payable through Square or by  check (payable to the Vibe Performance Company).  

Below are details about the timing of Ticket Sales:

  • Showcase Tickets will go on pre-sale via our online ticketing website to Parents of Seniors on Wednesday, January 21 at/around 9am.  Parents of Seniors will be allowed to purchase up to 20 tickets for both shows at this time.  Once ticketing goes on sale for other Vibe members the next day, you may purchase more tickets at that time.  Please be on the lookout for an email from the Vibe GMAIL account (not a web post) with Ticket Sales information on Tuesday.
  • Showcase Tickets will go on pre-sale via our online ticketing website to all other Vibe members only on Thursday, January 22 at/around 9am.  Please be on the lookout for an email from the Vibe GMAIL account (not a web post) with Ticket Sales information on Wednesday.    
  • On Monday, January 26, Showcase details will be posted to our website as a web page and web post for general public ticket purchases.

**NEW Vibe Donation Opportunity Information (a great way to meet your 10 ticket contract requirement):

Please share the ticket purchase link you receive with friends and family that are unable to attend the show, but wish to support their favorite dancer, that they have the option to make a small donation to Vibe Performance Company in lieu of a ticket purchase.  When using the link to purchase tickets, there is a donation tab at the top (see snapshot below).  Please have the donor fill in your dancers name in the “dancer’s name” field.

Here is example wording that one of our Elite members, Imani Reid, shared with her friends and family last year and generated over $900 in donations!

Hello Family, It’s that time of year again.  It’s my dance studio’s annual Showcase dance fundraiser.  While I know most of you reside out of town and won’t be able to attend, may you please consider making a donation.  Every little bit helps!  Please see the link below, and as always thanks for the continued love and support.  

Below are important notes about Day of Show (to explain to your guests when inviting them): 

  • There will be a short intermission in each show, where concessions will be sold.
  • We are offering 2 Dancer Gift options as well as flowers this year. They will be sold pre-sale and at the venue, while quantities last. There will be a separate web post next week explaining the dancer gift options and how to purchase.

If you have any questions please reach out to our Showcase Chairs, Amy Smith or Elisa Bobbitt.

2026 Big/Little Activity Checklist

Calling all Big/Lil Queens! Presenting the 2026 Vibe Big/Lil Majestic Moments & Regal Rewards monthly activity list!

This is your guide to Big/Lil Fun as we prepare to kick off our spring competition season!! The Big/Lil checklist includes monthly activities or small gift ideas guaranteed to bring a smile to your big or little. This year, it’s not a race to finish first or to check a box. It’s a celebration of you and everything each Big and Lil bring to the Vibe family. The goal is to provide each Big/Lil pair with opportunities to get to know each other, have fun, be silly together, share hugs or high-fives, cheer for each other, and share a few tokens of love and support along the way. Each big/lil pair will also be entered in a raffle for gift card prizes in February, March, April, and May. Each month we will post Big/Lil activity reminders so there will be no need to commit the checklist to memory or scroll through posts to find the information.

To kick-off our majestic moments, we’ll start with decorating a frame for dancer to exchange with his/her Big or Little at Showcase next month. Frames will be available for pickup at the studio beginning Thursday, Jan 22nd!
