Giving Tuesday
It’s the biggest giving day of the year and we are hoping to purchase 3 new portable ballet barres for the school. Our students eight years old and up use ballet barres during class and the ones we have now are no longer sturdy. The cost to replace three portable barres is approximately $1,200. Please remember CDS and our dancers on December 3, 2019.

On Friday, 11/22 CT Dance School students showcased dances from our Nutcracker at Fairfield University Bookstore. Brooke Dougherty and Audrey Compare, our 2019 Claras, read the book “The Nutcracker,” while several dancers performed for a packed audience of small children and their parents. Many thanks to CDS instructor, Patrice Logan who staged and supervised another wonderful collaboration of Story Time with Fairfield University Bookstore.

“CDS blends the hard work with inspiration, support and love— so that every child is included in the exploration of movement, and true joy is gifted to them through their study of dance."
