Dancin in the Park is July 14 at Marion park years ago
"Dancin' in the Park," a mini dance camp sampler by Movement Connection Dance Studios will be held July 14 in Central Park, Marion.
Class schedule will be ages five to seven, 9 to 10:30 a.m. Ages eight to 11, 10:30 a.m. to noon. Middle school, 12:30 to 2 p.m. High school, 2 to 3:30 p.m.
Movement Connection Dance Studios, owned and operated by Erika Jo Larson, is a multi-town dance studio planning to come to Marion this fall. Fall enrollment in Marion will be Aug. 9 and 19.
She will offer classes in ballet, tap, jazz/hip-hop, lyrical, pom, and much more.
By offering local youth a one-day camp opportunity, Movement Connection hopes to determine the amount of interest in this area and spark additional interest by teaching a routine.
"Whether you have dance, gymnastics, or cheerleading experience, or not, Movement Connection's Dancin' in the Park is sure to be a blast," said Larson.
Those attending the camp should expect to learn a jazz/hip-hop mini routine. Participants should wear comfortable clothing and shoes.
Tuition is $10 per participant, which covers the cost of camp and refreshments, and can be paid that day. For more information contact Larson at 620-245-4742. In case of inclement weather the event will be postponed to July 18.
