Welcome to our Twenty-Eighth Annual Gala Performance!

DANCE STOP Dance Education Center Proudly presents:

“SWING” A performance by the best dancers in Central Jersey who have been carefully taught, nurtured & encouraged by Miss Gina and her staff.

SATURDAY, JUNE 1, 2013: 12:00 pm Afternoon performance 5:00 pm Evening performance

SUNDAY, JUNE 2, 2013: 12:00 pm Afternoon performance 5:00 pm Evening performance Thank you for joining us in this year's celebration: “SWING”

“So sit back, relax and enjoy the show!”

Dear Parents and Students, This has been an incredible year – one filled with achievements, fun, excitement and challenges! Getting to know the students, being able to help them set their goals, and working with them towards that end, those are the blessings I acknowledge and for which I am grateful.

Dance Stop has many students but each one is special. I treasure every opportunity I have to work with these wonderful children, and I am so proud of all they accomplish each year. Thank you again for the trust you place in us, and for all the ways in which your children enhance our lives!

I hope all who see today’s show enjoy the hard work the children put in all year, and may all the dancers be inspired to soar higher and shine brighter next year. May God continue to bless our students and their families, and while we spend this time together, may we “SWING” our cares away!

With love, Miss Gina

“Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He shall give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord, trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass.” – Psalm 37:4-5

We are happy to announce the establishment of

The M & I Dancewear Scholarship This year, two students will receive a $500 award to attend the Young Artists Dance Intensive (YADI) at Dance Stop This scholarship is made possible through the generosity of Irwin Liss and M & I Dancewear In a letter to us, Mr. Liss explained his motivation for creating the scholarship…..

Gina and Ernie: As you both know we are privileged to be able to work in our passion. We are blessed to be able to watch young boys and girls, young men and women, pursue their passion as well.

I have known both of you since you created Dance Stop and I am proud to be part of such an outstanding educational center…not just dance education, but life education: teamwork, time management, family commitment, accountability, and so much more.

Always striving to better yourselves and create better dancers, you provide the resources necessary to ensure an incredible opportunity to those who wish to take advantage of your services and passion.

I am pleased to be able to contribute to your outstanding programs through a financial scholarship.

I also feel very close to your students. Sometimes, I just come to watch class and competition and just feel part of such a great thing. Continued success to you and your students, and to their parents for providing the funding for their educations and trusting their precious princes and princesses with you.

My hope is to build my personal contributions to you in the future…

Best!

Irwin L. Liss CEO, M and I Dancewear
