Neu Wixom Dance Academy is now Kelley’s Dance Craze! To My Dear Neu Wixom Family, It is with bittersweet emotion that I share the news of my retirement as owner and director of Neu Wixom Dance Academy. This has been one of the most difficult and emotional decisions that I have ever had to make. It is, however, the best decision for me so that I may focus on my family and my health. Accompanying this news, I could not be more pleased to announce that Kelley Paronish will be buying the studio and taking over as owner and director. Kelley is one of my former Neu Wixom teachers, and a dear friend. Some of you will even remember having Miss Kelley as one of your teachers! I have exceptional faith that Kelley will be an amazing studio owner and director. Having been one of the original Neu Wixom teachers, where she taught for 7 years before moving away, Kelley shares in the same core values and teaching philosophies as me and the Neu Wixom staff. Kelley also served as one of our competitive Company Directors for several years. Aside from being extremely organized and having a lot of energy, Kelley is one of the best dancer teachers that I have had the pleasure to know. Her passion for dance and teaching is unparalleled. Ask anyone who knows her, and you will hear that her students and their parents absolutely adore her. Miss Kelley and I understand that this news may come as a shock, however, we want to assure everyone that although there may be some changes, such as the name of the studio, she will work hard to keep running the studio in the same ways as Neu Wixom as possible. As teaching dance and working with children is one of my greatest passions, I have also very gladly agreed to stay on as a teacher (2-3 days/week), and as a resource for Kelley as we smoothly transition into this new ownership. It is my understanding that most of the current teachers will also continue to stay on and teach (some of the teachers are leaving because they are moving, or have school commitments that won’t allow them to teach next season). From the bottom of my heart, I want you all to know that it has been an absolute pleasure to have served you and your children as owner and director of Neu Wixom Dance Academy – my first baby! It’s hard to believe that it has been almost 13 years since Neu Wixom was “born”. I have so many fond memories that will last a lifetime! I want to end by saying that although I am closing this chapter in my life, I am excited to see what the next chapter brings. I am not going anywhere; you will still see me around the studio and I will continue to teach many of your children for years to come! Very Sincerely, |
Something for everyone!
