Thank you for your LOVE of DANCE!
NEWSFLASH:
June 1, 2021
When we were forced to postpone our 2020 I LOVE DANCE Season, we never imagined we would find ourselves in nearly those same shoes once again during our 2021 Season.
We have pushed back several cities, as even a few more weeks can make a difference for our events.
We are certainly so very sorry for any postponements - obviously beyond our control - and any inconvenience. We are positive that “We will ALL Rise and Dance again.”
Not all of our dates were forced to change, and the majority have not.
However, we have now revised our entire 2021 Season Schedule brochure (bottom left) to be current for this entire Season with only a few cities now noted to be further postponed again to 2022 - Buffalo, Des Moines, Los Angeles and Seattle.
We are so proud of the determined Dance Schools who already joined us in: St Augustine, Wichita, Billings, Pittsburgh, Fort Lauderdale and Dallas.
We are happy to be able to produce shows in SIX cities this June and July: Houston, Memphis, Bay City, Jersey City, Boston and Chicago.
Please keep in mind, we will always strive to make our events a reflection of the love you feel for Dance and for your Dancers.
The I LOVE DANCE Family - and YOU and your families will get through these unprecedented times that reshape and continue to change every aspect of our lives.
Kim McKimmie is so appreciative of your support and she is dedicated to being at your service producing our future events with respect and integrity.
Throughout this pandemic, you may be confident that our common sense approach for 2021 has your safety as our priority. We assure you that ALL of our precious Dance Studio Owners and Directors, Dance Teachers, ILD Staff and Judges and ALL of our Participants and their families are at the forefront of our thoughts and in our hearts and prayers.
