Hello Creative Movement and Pre-Ballet families,
Saturday and Sunday are the big days for our BELLEVUE students! We are so excited to welcome you to our space and enjoy the hard work your young dancers have put into their dances. Please read through the Know Before You Go to plan for this weekend!
Following each show there will be a short reception organized by our amazing Parent/Guardian Association featuring complementary snacks and soft drinks. The PGA will have beautiful bouquets of flowers to purchase for your dancer, as well as raffle tickets for a Ballet Birthday Party hosted at PNB, valid to be redeemed anytime in the next year. Raffle tickets are only $5!
Know Before You Go: Petite Finale BELLEVUE
The shows will take place at the Francia Russell Center, 1611 135TH Pl NE, Bellevue. Free parking is available, please use PNB Reserved or unlabeled parking spots only.
Students must come ready in their PNB School uniform and their hair must be in a neat bun with no accessories for girls, and neatly combed/out of their face for boys.
Students must be checked in by their scheduled arrival time.
Families must leave the Francia Russell Center after their student has been dropped off to avoid overcrowding the space, and line up outside.
Ticket check-in will open 10-15 minutes before showtime, if possible please have your whole party arrive together. Tickets are required and must be purchased in advance.
BELLEVUE Saturday Creative Movement and Pre-ballet classes are cancelled. SEATTLE classes are still on!

Hello Advanced C students and families,
Due to teacher illness we need to cancel Advanced C classes this evening. All Adv C students will have the choice to take either Level VI or Level VIII technique class instead! We apologize for the late notice.
Technique options for Thursday, 5/14:
Level VIII 4:30-6:00 with Thompson
Or
Level VI 6:00-7:30 with Crowley
Adv C Strength is cancelled tonight
Dear Pre-Intermediate Families,
We have made the decision to cancel the Monday Pre-Intermediate Strength class for the remainder of the year, your dancers will now finish at 7:30 on Mondays. We believe that reducing the number of hours will greatly enhance the students’ ability to focus, leading to a more successful and enjoyable experience in our final weeks.
James Moore will take over the technique class on Mondays and complete their dance for the school show. Mr. Griffin will continue to be their teacher on Fridays and Saturdays.
Thank you for your understanding.
Marisa Albee
Principal
Pacific Northwest Ballet School
