Dress Rehearsal and Recital

Recital Photos

Recital Photos will be taken during classes in February or March. Every student will receive a complimentary photo for each class he or she is a participant! Another Generations Extra! In addition to the photo session being a memorable event, it is another opportunity for us to make sure everything is just perfect in preparation for the recital.

Dress Rehearsals

Our Dress Rehearsals are hassle-free! Each class is given a specific time to be ready to go at Westerville Central. You won't need to be there more than an hour if your child is in one dance!! This is also a special time when you can move right up to the front and videotape and photograph your child on stage. The Dress Rehearsal is scheduled for Friday May 3rd 2024!

Recitals

The location of Generation's recitals is at Westerville Central High School. The address is 7118 Mt. Royal Avenue; Westerville, OH 43082. Generation's recitals are kept "short and sweet." We will have 8 recitals over the weekend. Each class will participate in one performance. We typically place families with more than one student, or more than one dance in the same show when possible! The Generations recital times are scheduled for the convenience of our families. If you know you will have a conflict with any of the recital times, please let us know as soon as possible. We will make every effort to be accommodating. Our times will be 5:00 and 7:00 on Friday and 10:15, 12:30, 2:45, 4:45, and 6:30 on Saturday. The recitals for 2024 are May 17th and 18th.

Recital Tickets

Every family will be able to request tickets for the recital at no charge. This is to ensure there is enough seating for your entire family! There is a recital fee of $120 to cover the following: Tickets for the recital, A recital T-shirt and recording of the recital for one student. Each additional student is $40. If you do not have a dancer and would like to request tickets, contact us at [email protected] .

Dance and Faith

Thank you so much for everything. I can't even begin to tell you how happy I am that Maggie dances at your studio. Your staff is so kind and you teach not only a solid dance curriculum, but a valuable lesson in faith (which is hard to come by in today's society). I look forward to Maggie dancing with you for a very long time.

Sincerely,

Rose

Dear Angie and Cindy,

I just wanted to take a minute to thank you both for running such a wonderful dance studio. After attending the dance competition at Louisville last year, and the one in Mason today, I continue to be thankful that Generations is a performing arts center that focuses on keeping the integrity and innocence of our girls (and boys) at the heart of costuming, music, and routine selections. I continue to be amazed at the talent of the young people at Generations, and am so happy and thankful that Madelyn has an opportunity to grow as a dancer and as a person at Gen-Pac.

Sincerely,

Tami Hinz

Mentors...

I love that you use the older girls as big sis/mentors for the younger girls.  The older girls set a positive example and are responsible girls who handle themselves very well.

Favorite thing as a parent...

My favorite thing as a parent about Generations is that you value and teach each girl as an important person, not just a number or one of many dancers in your studio. I truly appreciate how you hold the girls to task, hold them accountable, and make them work hard but you do it in a loving and kind way. Your values as Christians really show through and we love that! I can't think of a better way for my daughter to spend her time. She is learning dance, but also learning valuable life lessons. I had been meaning to send you a note after the Mason competition about this. It was our first experience in a competition and I cannot tell you how impressed I was with our dancers and your choice of costumes, appropriate choreography, and rules of conduct. I was completely shocked to see how some of the other dance studios had their girls dressed, the dance moves they used, and their attire when walking around the hallway. It was quite a contrast to Generations dancers. It made me so happy as a parent. I truly want you to know how much I appreciate you! I will support Rachel dancing with you as much and as long as she desires! You are helping to raise great kids.

We are relatively new to dance and we LOVE Generations! You do a wonderful job with the girls. We chose Generations because 2 of Rachel's friends were students there. She was interested for a while, but we actually signed up for summer classes after Elizabeth brought Rachel to 'bring a friend to dance' day one May. Summer classes were a nice way to get started with a short commitment to see if she liked it. (She did!)

Absolutely fantastic place to send your children to learn dance! Very well organized programs for all ages. Our oldest daughter has been going here for a few years and every instructor has been very caring and talented. Can't wait to see our next daughter join in!
