It's never too late to start :) The office will have you take a single class to have the teacher determine where you best fit in our syllabus. Remember, we want you to train safely, building strong alignment and technical skills as you go. Just contact the office at 530-756-3949 or email us at office@trokanski.com, and we can answer all your questions.

We will hold a ballet placement class on Friday, May 30, from 5:30 - 6:30 pm This is an excellent opportunity for dancers who are interested in moving up a level in their technique classes, as well as for those who would like to get placed for our summer Contemporary/Ballet Intensive. Contact the office to register.

It's May now, and summer is almost upon us... That means it's time to think about summer camps!

Safety protocol updates:

While we no longer require masks, we will have a zero-tolerance policy for colds, coughs, and sniffles for everyone on site.

If you have allergies you should continue to wear a mask as you can't be sure if it's just allergies or it's allergies and you're beginning to come down with something.

Importantly, if you or your child has a cold or other illness, it is important that you still stay home. Remember the old days, before the pandemic? We still asked people to stay home if they were sick. It might be just a "little cold" for your child but no one else wants it. What is the saying? Germs are the one thing we don't want to share.

Thank you for helping us keep ALL of our dancers healthy!

Please remember that it is important that you have saved space by confirming with the office if you are planning to take a class at the studio. If you are a registered tuition student, we are already saving a place for you so you don't need to call in every week. If you are using a dance card or want to do a paid single, then calling the office at 530-756-349 is the easiest way to make sure there's a space for you in class. It's

important to give the office at least 3 hours notice before coming to the studio.

We are also welcoming new Pilates teacher, Gayle Kyhos, dancer, physical therapist, and certified Pilates matwork instructor through the Australian Physiotherapy and Pilates Institute.

She will begin by adding a Pilates mat class on Tuesday mornings that follows the Cardio class taught by Pamela. That class began on Tuesday, April 22nd and can be done as a "drop-in" as long as you give the office advance notice. (Since it's a Tuesday morning class, please let us know by Monday evening. The office staff really appreciates this!)

Also, if you are interested in having a class on Wednesday mornings, please let the office know.

To find out more about Gayle, go to our faculty page.
