Danceworks Registration Tonight
August 20, 2009
Student registration will be held tonight for the return of Heather Leonard’s Danceworks.
Before announcing her retirement, Leonard taught dance for 14 years to hundreds of girls from North Escambia and surrounding areas. The business is reopening and classes will begin September 9, under the Heather Leonard’s Danceworks name. Leonard will serve as the administrator and adviser, while Chelsea Sims will teach the dance classes.
“I always wanted to teach dance,” Sims said. “I felt like this was where God was leading me. I’m very excited.”
“I’m so glad it worked out this way,” Leonard said. “There were so many girls that had put so much into dance; I wanted them to have a chance to continue.”
Sims (pictured left) is a 2009 graudate of Northview High School, where she was a majorette for two years and a varsity cheerleader for two years. She was named Miss NHS 2008, was a homecoming maid as a freshman and sophomore and was homecoming queen her senior year. She was one of Leonard’s dance students for 14 years.
Tonight’s registration and the dance classes will be held at the Byrneville Community Center. Registration is from 6:00 to 7:30 tonight. For more information on Heather Leonard’s Danceworks, call (850) 256-0948.
