From our last party at Elite..
Ladies and gentlemen, esteemed dance family, and all the life enthusiasts in the room,
As I stand before you today, it's with a heart full of emotions and a dance bag filled with memories that I address you on this bittersweet occasion. The day has come to close the studio doors, but fear not, for our dance journey doesn't end here; it simply takes a new beat.
Firstly, let me express my deepest gratitude to each one of you. You've transformed this studio into more than just a space for dance; you've turned it into a home for passion, laughter, and countless twirls. Over the past three years, we've danced through joyous highs and navigated the tricky footwork of life's lows together.
But beyond the laughter and the occasional missteps, what truly makes this dance family special is the support we've given one another. In this studio, we found more than dance partners; we found friends who understood the language of movement and expression. You've inspired me with your dedication, amazed me with your talent, and touched my heart with your commitment.
Now, as we close this chapter, let's not dwell on the goodbyes. Instead, let's celebrate the dance, the laughter, and the shared moments that have become the fabric of our little dance universe.
Remember, we're not just saying goodbye; we're turning up the volume on our individual dance journeys.
As you leave this studio today, take with you the rhythm we created together, the friendships that swayed with every step, and the memories that will keep your heart dancing. Thank you for being a part of this extraordinary dance family.
Tonight I also invited a very special friend of mine to dance with me the last dance for you .
David Howland and his partner Vivian dominated the international competition in theater arts between 1995 and 2002 wining the world championship 6 times and the British exhibition championship in Blackpool 5 times and they secured 5 united states titles. No other couple has ever accomplished that.. Thankfully since retiring from International competition in 2003, David has been spending his time as an author in Palm Coast area and has published several children's books that our Oksi enjoys reading . And tonight he kindly agreed ( at very last minute) to dance with me tonight .
So here Cheers to you, my incredible dance family!
Keep dancing, keep smiling, and keep the spirit alive!
Here is our final number for you... thank you .
