It's Here! Winter Season Begins All Around Minnesota

Today is the day all across Minnesota!  Dancers are bringing their winter practice gear with them to school today and many teams will be starting their winter season tryouts or digging into new dances all afternoon.  MN HS Dance Team Online has been busy getting ready for the season to start and we have a helpful article to share from Dance Teacher Magazine about a hot topic this time of year - dealing with disgruntled parents who are unhappy with their dancer's placement on a team/line.  For teams that have winter season tryouts this week it can be a stressful time for dancers hoping to get that top spot and for coaches who have to break some bad news to the few that don't get it.  Dance Teacher has some tactful and professional recommendations for dealing with the tough issues. 

Check out the article here: Dance Teacher Magazine
