As we draw the curtains on another year of dance, I am filled with immense pride and gratitude for each of you who have made this journey so incredibly rewarding. Our end-of-year recital is not just a showcase of talent; it's a testament to the hard work, dedication, and passion that our dancers bring to the studio every single day. Tonight is also very special because we finally get to share with you the location of our NEW STUDIO! Your love, support and well wishes have gotten us this far and we are so excited to finally reveal that our new location is bigger and better than ever. We are now going to be able to offer more class options, more programs, more workshops and more parking! :)
I started Adaa in my living room and to now see it expand into a two-room studio is truly humbling. I hope our efforts to create a more seamless experience for you and your family, to truly bring the magic of Bollywood in your lives and to create this beautiful dance family continues to grow and be the foundation of Adaa for many years to come.
To my students: From our youngest dancers taking their first steps on stage to our seasoned performers demonstrating grace and skill, every moment on stage is a celebration of the love we share for dance. You are the heart and soul of Adaa. Your commitment, creativity, and resilience inspire us all.
To the parents and supporters: Your unwavering support and encouragement are invaluable. Thank you for entrusting us with the privilege of nurturing your or your child's passion for dance.
To my instructors: What a dream team we have created this year. My heart is full of joy watching you all bring so much variety, talent, experience, and love into your classrooms this season and now on stage tonight.
To my staff: Thank you for always being ready to help our Adaa families with a smile and taking the Adaa experience to the next level. You bring my vision to life.
As we look ahead to the next chapter, let us carry the memories of this recital with us and continue to dance with joy, purpose, a sense of community and lots of Adaa Magic.
P.S. If I could, I would hug each and every one of you tonight for making my dream come true— you’ve made Adaa more than a dance studio, more like a family!!
Love and Luck,
Apra Bhandari Founder/Director Adaa Dance Academy
