Thank you for your LOVE of DANCE!
NEWSFLASH:
May 1, 2022
Happy month of May to all of you precious people who LOVE Dance!
The last two months of ILD Competitions have been a blast and our motto remains strong for the next two months of more exciting Competitions — “We will ALL Rise and Dance again.”
We are loving every minute of producing our 44th Anniversary Season.
We are so grateful to the determined Dance Schools who have already joined us and to those who will be participating this month and next. Our Judges and Staff are all eager to welcome y’all.
We do feel that our events are a real reflection of the love you feel for Dance and for your Dancers. The I LOVE DANCE Family - and YOU and your families will continue to get through these uncertain 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.
You may be confident that our common sense approach has always been in place with your safety as our priority. We assure you that ALL of our 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 for their ongoing good health and success.
Our 2022 Season is well underway now and we are having the time of our lives! We’ve thoroughly enjoyed the attendees who were dancing with joy in Jersey City, Pittsburgh, Los Angeles, Houston, Wichita, and Chicago.
In May, we kick off with our SOLD OUT Bay City, Michigan ILD (we are back with another ILD Comp - and all new Staff and Judges to return for an encore in Bay City this season on June 26th.)
This beautiful month of May continues with ILD in Des Moines, Boston, Seattle and Billings.
Next month, we shuffle off to Buffalo on June 5th and return for our finalé show in Bay City on June 26th.
Please call or email us if we may assist you in your participation in any city.
We are proud to be staying ON OUR FEET this year - and proud of ALL of YOU for keeping the LOVE of DANCE a priority in your lives.
Watch for our 2023 Season Schedule to be announced over the Summer when we will ready to Rise and Dance again next year too!
