The Mesquite Leisure Services Department is proud to announce the launch of the new dance program called “On Beat Dance and Cheer” starting September 14, 2011. An Open House is scheduled for Wednesday, September 7 at 6:30 p.m. This is a great opportunity to meet Studio Director & Dance Instructor, McKel Lyman.
This program offers a combination of classes such as Jazz, Tap, Ballet, Lyrical, Tumbling, Technique, as well as Cheer. We are sure you and your dancer will get everything you have wanted in a studio. Classes are held every Wednesday for children ages 2 and up at the Recreation Center Dance room.
On the Beat Dance and Cheer focuses on the quality of instruction, not the quantity of dancers; your dancer will build self esteem, confidence, learn the importance of setting goals as well as the satisfaction of reaching them. Students also discipline, commitment, and what it takes to be part of a team. We are sure you and your dancer will get everything you have wanted in a studio.
McKel Lyman Studio Director said, “It has always been my passion and joy to share what I love the most “Dance”. Growing up in a family of dancers I started my training as soon as I could walk, I continued my dance training through high school as a member of the Snow Canyon Eshelles, and graduated from Tuacahn High School for the Performing Arts.
I started assisting my mother in classes at 12, took on my own competitive team at 15; and became the primary competition instructor for Dance Tracks at 17. I have trained with some of the biggest names in dance, and have won many personal as well as professional awards while owning Dance Tracks in Southern Utah for the last 8 years.
I make it my personal goal to assure each student feels welcome, excited, and passionate about their classes and each parent feels informed, as well as confidant about what On Beat Dance & Cheer offers. I am very excited to be part of the Mesquite Recreational program and even more so that you & your dancer are joining us. Summer is a great time to start your dance & cheer training. It allows lots of time for practice, and fun performances, Lyman added.
