The Dance Journal is something we wish more dance studios did. We’ve yet to find another studio in Singapore that gives kids a real printed journal as part of class enrolment.
What’s in the journal
Each Dance Journal is around 40 pages, A5 size, printed on quality paper. Inside:
- Your daughter’s name on the front cover — printed, not stickered
- Weekly reflection pages — for each class, a short page to write or draw what she learned, what she felt, what she’s working on
- Term goal pages — set 3 goals per term with her coach, check progress mid-term and end of term
- Dance fact pages — short readable facts about dance history, technique, famous dancers
- Choreography sketch pages — blank pages with body silhouettes for her to sketch combinations she’s learning
- Milestone trackers — first time doing X, first time performing, first time leading a count, etc.
- End-of-year reflection — one final summary page
Why the journal matters
For kids: – It’s hers. Not the studio’s, not the school’s. A personal artefact of her year. – It builds the habit of reflecting on what she learns — a skill that transfers well beyond dance – It gives shy kids who don’t want to talk a way to express their experience – It documents her journey in a way phone photos can’t
For parents: – A clear window into what your daughter is actually working on each week – Easy way to ask “tell me about this page” instead of “did you have fun?” – Something to keep on the shelf — many parents have a row of Dance Journals on their bookshelf, one per year
How we make them
Designed in-house. Printed in Singapore. Distributed to every student on the first class of every new term. The cost is built into the term fee — you don’t pay extra.
Frequently asked
Can my child choose her journal cover design? The cover design rotates by term and theme — every child in a given term gets the same design (with their personal name). We don’t do custom covers (it would slow turnaround dramatically).
What if the journal gets damaged? We can usually print a replacement at cost (~S$10). Talk to us.
Can I see one before enrolling? Yes. Drop by our Waterloo Centre studio any opening hours and we’ll show you a sample.
