December Newsletter

Merry Christmas!!!

Dancer of the month:

Hattie Erekson

Hattie!!! Congrats on being dancer of the month! We love our Hattie so much. She’s only 14 and goes to Pineview Middle School. She’s an aggressive tennis player and plays with her family. She also enjoys choir and is an amazing piano player. Hattie loves anything to do with fashion. She loves pinterest and loves doing up-do hair styles and doing fingernails of all colors and patterns! She wants to serve a mission, be a mom of twelve kids, and be an elementary school teacher. She loves kids and she simply loves to teach. Hattie’s favorite thing to do is dance of course! Hip hop is what she enjoys most and has only been taking dance for a year and a half and is already a wonderful member of the Kaos dance team. She learned to first dance from watching tv and copying the professionals! Hattie is just naturally so talented! The fact that The Vault dances for a cause is what it’s all about for her. It makes dancing and everything come full circle and worth it. We love you Hattie and are grateful for your support and sweet spirit!

Dear Parents,

Thank you so much for all of your support this entire year on our journey with Meg and helping us reach our goal of $10,000. With all of your help, we even reached our goal plus some! We truly need all the help from parents and dancers to make The Vault and all it does happen. I know sometimes it can be a sacrifice, but I appreciate your willingness to be a part of something bigger. I believe that we can not only just dance, but ALWAYS use it for something greater than ourselves, and can be the helping hand someone may need. We are not a competing-centered studio because I know that this studio can do greater things for those going through real life “calamities”. I understand that some parents were upset about paying to see the show for both nights, but please know that other studios make you pay as well without going to a good cause. This is the way it will always be at The Vault and if it isn’t what you are looking for, then we understand if you must attend elsewhere. You will always be welcome to take dance here and be a part of what we stand for and do. Again, I can’t express my gratitude enough for the blessing you all have been to me and this studio this year. We made it together and I can’t wait for what next year has in store. I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and will see you and your kids next year in 2013!! I love you and your dancers so much.

-Tia Stokes

We are looking for a new 2013 cause and we will be taking letters, stories, and phone calls so please contact Tia. Without a cause to dance for, our studio doesn’t hold its purpose. We thank you for all submissions and can’t wait to see everyone next year! Be safe! We love you all!!!
