SPRING 2025
March Newsletter
Happy March DDS Family!
 
The sun has started to come out and give us some love, and spring is almost here! That means we have LOTS coming up at Dixon Dance Studio. We are having a blast prepping for recital and can’t wait to see the final groovy results on stage! If you haven’t signed up yet, recital registration closes Friday, so don’t miss your chance to be part of this unforgettable show.
 
With summer just around the corner, we’re gearing up for an amazing lineup of summer dance camps! Whether your dancer wants to cast spells, set sail on an island adventure, or play the day away in Big Blue Adventure Park, we’ve got something for everyone. These camps are packed with creativity, movement, and fun—plus a special performance at the end of the week!
 
We had an incredible time at LA Dance Magic in Santa Clara last month, where our dancers took classes with top industry professionals and shined on stage. We are beyond proud of how they represented DDS with heart, hard work, and a whole lot of fun!
 
Don’t forget—Spirit Days are next week! Get ready to dress up, have fun, and celebrate our dance family.
 
Thank you all for being part of our growing DDS community. We are so happy to have you here and can’t wait to keep dancing with you!
 
Warmly,
Morgan Hicks & the DDS Staff
 
🌟 Get Ready to Boogie at The DDS Disco! 🌟
 
We are beyond excited for this year’s Summer Recital: The DDS Disco! It’s going to be a funky, fabulous, and far-out celebration of all the hard work our dancers have put in this season. We hope you’ll join us under the spotlight for this groovy annual tradition at the Vacaville Performing Arts Theater—where the music is hot, the moves are fresh, and the memories last a lifetime!
 
Performing is one of the most rewarding parts of a dancer’s journey—it builds confidence, showcases growth, and is an essential part of dance training. Plus, there’s nothing quite like the thrill of hitting the stage, feeling the energy of the crowd, and sharing the joy of dance with family and friends. Every dancer leaves with unforgettable memories, new experiences, and a sense of accomplishment.
 
So get ready to bust a move, sparkle like a disco ball, and show off those funky fresh skills—this recital is going to be DY-NO-MITE! 🔥✨
 
Let’s dance, dazzle, and DISCO together! 🪩🎶

SPOTLIGHT DANCER
 
Paige Purcell
 
17 YEARS OLD
MARCH 2025
What school do you attend? 
Dixon High School
 
What grade are you in? 
12th Grade
 
What are your favorite things about school?
I love seeing all my friends and my teachers
 
How long have you been dancing at Dixon Dance Studio? 
16 years
 
What made you want to start dancing? 
My sister Tori had always danced and my mom put me in classes when I was old enough and I fell in love! I have grown up at the dance studio.
 
What is your favorite dance memory?
Definitely spending time with my friends and alumni! As well as the long competition rehearsals and bonding with my team.
Who are your dance friends and what do you like about them? 
My dance friends are Sophia H. Presleigh and so many more! I love them so much because they are always so supportive and always have a positive attitude in class no matter what.
 
What are your future dreams, goals, aspirations? 
My future dream and goals are to have a family of my own and work somewhere that I can talk to a lot of people!
 
What advice would you give to your fellow dancers about life/dance? 
I would really just say not only for dance but in your daily life too, don’t compare yourself to the people next to you. It is always good to push yourself to be the best version you can be, but comparing yourself will only bring you down.
 
Teacher's note: 
Your passion, caring nature, and beautiful smile light up every room. With your positive attitude and dedication, you’re a true role model to everyone around you. Keep shining and inspiring with your talent and heart! Congratulations Paige!
Miss. Lexi
