ALOHA DANCE STUDIO & TUMBLING WELCOMES YOU

BIG UPDATE!!

Dear Valued Parents and Students,

We hope this letter finds you well. We are writing to share some important updates regarding Aloha Dance Studio. Due to a legal issue with our current building space that we cannot disclose at this time, it is with a heavy heart that we will be discontinuing our tumbling program and focusing solely on our dance classes.

As a result of these legal issues, we must vacate our current space at the end of June and will begin operating at our former Main Studio location behind Home Depot at Gary’s Service in July for our summer program.

During this transition, our summer dance program will be held at our old Main Studio location at 4469 Kolopa St. Lihue. We are thrilled to announce that we will be rebranding as Thrive With Movement which is our nonprofit organization to do more for our community. As part of this exciting new chapter, we are offering our summer dance program for FREE! Yes, you read that right—FREE dance classes for children and teens ages 3 to 18.

We want to express our deepest gratitude for the support you have shown us over the past year amidst all the changes and transitions. We believe that God has been guiding our steps to bring us back to the core of why we do what we do for our community. Thrive With Movement will operate as a nonprofit to ensure that all keiki have access to dance, regardless of financial challenges. We are dedicated to shaping the lives of our future generation through the arts, knowing that physical education through dance enhances mental and emotional health at any age.

Operating under Thrive With Movement will allow us to drastically lower our prices. With our dedicated instructors, we strive to create a fun and safe environment for your child. We understand that changes like this can be challenging, but we are committed to ensuring a smooth transition and continuing to provide high-quality dance education for your children. We appreciate your understanding and support during this period of change.

We are setting up our new online registration system for Thrive With Movement and will open up summer registration very soon!

Please feel free to reach out to us with any questions or concerns. We are here to assist you in any way we can.

Thank you for being a part of our dance family. We look forward to seeing you back at our Main Studio location and are excited about the future of Thrive With Movement.

Sincerely,

Pono & Tiffany and staff

Aloha Dance Studio Mission

Aloha Dance Studio was founded in 2002 to serve the needs of students all over the island of Kauai. Since we opened our doors, our Dance School has helped an impressive number of students, including 2nd generation helping children build self-esteem, self confidence, and team building skills through the art of dance. Our innovative and fun teaching methods help students really latch onto the material, and take charge of their own learning. We continue to strive to bring a fun and professional learning experience to ages 3 years old and up.

Mission Statement:

Aloha Dance Studio is a place where kids of all ages’ shapes and sizes learn to dance, and perform. This is a safe place where creativity, individuality and self-expression are encouraged and have a community of teachers, students and families who are passionate about performing arts. Our goal is to create a positive and happy experience for all our students. We strive to nurture and develop talent, celebrate the achievements of all students, and inspire a love and appreciation of all styles of dance, the performing arts. We are committed to providing a safe and positive environment in which all students can feel empowered, comfortable, and free to express themselves.

It is important to us at Aloha Dance Studio that all members of our team share our vision, our purpose and the philosophy that encompasses everything we do both in and outside of our classes. This is a vision that is shared and demonstrated by the directors, teachers and staff members and it is the driving force behind every interaction with our students and their families.

We are excited to partner with Thrive With Movement to provide scholarships for dance and tumbling. With your support and partnership, we can make a lasting impact on the lives of young individuals who may otherwise be limited in their access to these valuable opportunities. By funding our child and youth scholarships, you directly contribute to fostering their physical, emotional, and social development. Through movement, we nurture confidence, creativity, teamwork, and resilience, empowering them to reach their full potential.
