Did you grow up the child of a dance teacher?
I'm gathering input for a seminar "Growing Up A Dance Teachers Kid" for the conference this summer. Thoughts from those who have "lived the life" would be cool to include in the notes. Doesn't have to be long; the best and/or hardest parts or a funny story is cool, too. Post here or emaill rhee@rheegold.com. Thanks in advance--Rhee

Dance Studio Life Magazine Oops--let's rephrase that. DO your Memorial Day weekend plans involve dance-related events?


Brienne at 7:32pm May 23
Sort of: normal classes today, the rest, unfortunately, will be paperwork - recital program layout, press releases....made time to take in a movie today with hubby & kids and the local Strawberry Festival w/ them tomorrow though!!!
Sue at 5:08am May 24
Yes, we have rehearsals for all students taking part in our yearly recital. Some famiies will then be traveling to a competition event. Six girls (my lovely bunch), will be competing for the first time on Monday - They've worked so hard and I'm so proud of them! I can't wait to see them perform on stage - Way to go team SSS!


Dance Studio Life Magazine Does your Memorial Day plans involve dance-related events?
Suzanne at 8:48pm May 22

Dance Studio Life Magazine Have you heard of “study drugs”? They’re neuroenhancers like those prescribed for people with attention deficit disorder, and they’re in common use among high school and college students. These drugs (a common one is Adderall) give users mental acuity and wakefulness, but they’re dangerous. If you’ve encountered students who use these drugs, we’d like to hear from you. Email arisa@rheegold.com.

My ADDHD/Autistic Spectrum child has been on Adderall for 5 days. 5mg, he says he cant tell a differance, teacher will evaluate monday to keep/change or up the dosage.
Suzanne at 8:46pm May 22
My son has ADHD and is taking Adderall. He took it before and has been on the non-stimulant Strattera, too, along with counseling for behavior therapy. He and I had a discussion about the medicine when he went to college. It's a hot commodity in college and according to what I've been told kids sell their ADHD meds in college and can get a lot ... Read Moreof money for it. Kiids use it to cram for studying. My son had a special place he kept his meds yet wouldn't forget to take them and it worked out. I also knew when it was time for his medicine to be refilled.
I'm not sure it's the dance teacher's place to comment about medications kids are on, in fact, how many kids are taking meds and we never know? I do know I've been asked to give ADHD kids their meds at the studio and I have said no because of liability and responsibility. I do think if we suspect there's drug/alcohol use then we report what we see to the parents.

Dance Studio Life Magazine Musical Theater for Wannabes:Plenty of adults and teens long to get onstage and belt out a song or dance their hearts out in a scene from their favorite musical. And plenty of them have never danced a step, or lack any—ahem—discernible talent. We’re looking for programs that let triple-threat wannabes perform in a non-threatening environment, without having to audition. If you’ve got one, email arisa@rheegold.com.
