Tutu's at Baskets of Distinction


It is that time of year again to start thinking about holiday gifts. Baskets of Distinction on Washington Street at 11th has some beautiful Tutu's for your special ballarina! http://www.thebasketsofdistinction.com/product_details.php?ProductID=1024&CategoryID=26&start=80



Tri Color Tutus
After a thorough search we found the most whimsical tutu ever for your fairy princess! This tutu for little girls is made of 3 layers of different colored tulle. The bottom 2 layers are single and the top layer is filled with a handful of loose rose petals and complete with fun flower applique.

Little waists are kept cozy with a satin covered elastic waist. Hours of dance, dress up, and make believe play await her royal highness.

Great gift item!

PLEASE NOTE:
Hoboken Dance Academy students can choose the Pick-Up option during checkout. And Michele will have your order available at the studio.

Free Trial Classes For Adults

Free Trial Classes on Wednesday November 19th. Please contact the studio to reserve a spot.



Ashatanga Yoga at 7:00-8:00PM

Ashtanga Yoga is a system of yoga transmitted to the modern world by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois. This method of yoga involves synchronizing the breath with progressive series of postures—a process producing intense internal heat and a profuse, purifying sweat that detoxifies muscles and organs. The result is improved circulation, a light and strong body, and a calm mind.

Modern Dance at 8:00-9:00PM
Modern dance is the break off of classical ballet. Emphasis is placed on improving anatomical awareness and alignment, increasing strength and flexibility and developing rhythmic sense.


Ms. Mandy Stallings will be instructing both of these new additions to Hoboken Dance Academy. Mandy Stallings is currently performing as a permanent company member of Pascal Rekoert’s Flexicurve Dance as well as the Cleo Mack Dance Project. She has worked professionally with Larry Keigwin, Nicole Wolcott, Neta Pulvermacher, Gerri Houlihan, Scott Rink, Brenda Daniels, and Sean Sullivan. Mandy has choreographed more than fifteen original dances and her work has been shown in venues such as Dance Forum, Peridance Center, HATCH, Cunningham Studio, SWEAT outdoors, Studio A.I.R and Galapagos Art Space. She teaches dance to children throughout the NYC Public school system and is also a registered yoga instructor, recognized nationally with the Yoga Alliance at the highest level. She is a graduate of the North Carolina School of the Arts and is very excited to be teaching at Hoboken Dance Academy!
