Solo, Duo, Trio Signup Genius & Studio Booking Process

Cheryl has updated the Solo, Duo, Trio Signup Genius. Click here to access the Signup Genius. Everyone must wait until they receive the email before signing up each month.

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 ($45 for a 30 minute session) 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.

Holiday Party Details & RSVP!

Our annual Vibe Holiday Party & Gift Exchange “Reign in Rhythm: A Royal Masquerade” will be held on Sunday, December 14 at 12:30pm at The Falls at Autry Mill clubhouse (address is: 9825 Autry Falls Dr, Alpharetta, GA 30022).

To Do’s for the Holiday Party:

  1. Please RSVP for dancer and 1 parent (if a parent is attending) no later than Friday, December 5. Click here to access the RSVP form.
  2. Attire is Sparkles! We will have fun masquerade masks ready for the girls when they arrive at the venue.
  3. Please bring a $15 wrapped gift to the party for a Gift Exchange Game that will be played with all of the Vibe dancers together. Everyone will go home with a gift from another Vibe dancer.  You do NOT need to purchase a second gift for your Big or Little Sister.
  4. Each year at our Holiday Party, we ask our dancers to “pay it forward” to a local nonprofit charity…a little way of recognizing how fortunate we all are at this time of year. We’re thrilled to announce that this year’s philanthropy event will support Fleece & Thank You, a Michigan-based organization dedicated to providing comfort to children during hospital stays. Their mission is to donate fleece-tied blankets to kids facing inpatient care, with a goal of reaching 30,000 children this year.

As part of our effort, each VIBE Big Sis/Lil pair will create one blanket and record a heartfelt video message to send to a child in need. To cover the cost of materials, we ask that each dancer donate $18 which will be collected by Group Moms ahead of the party. During the event, we’ll come together to craft blankets, spread warmth, and knot hope and hugs to those who need it most.

We are looking forward to having the whole group together for a wonderful holiday celebration! A BIG thank you to our Holiday Party leads Liza Duncan, Christy Smith & Jenn Culbertson as well as the entire committee for planning our party!
