Congratulations to our community of dance and performing arts educators on (almost) reaching the end of a long first term!

Studio owners and teachers - remember that amongst the holiday workshops and Term 2 planning, the school holidays are also your opportunity to rest and restore yourself for another term. Try to step away from the work screens and the books and recharge your batteries over these next few weeks, whether that’s a spa day, a cuppa and a good book, or spending some well-deserved time with your loved ones.
