It was so much fun seeing dancers running up to each other asking, “Have you ever taken class with Ms. Reyana?” or checking if a friend was “Wearing a RFTB leotard.” Not only did they make new friends and find things like a Splits Club Patch or a RFTB Dance Company member, but they also learned that our studio is a place where every dancer is welcome and excited to meet them!
A Tradition is Born!
The response was absolutely incredible! We had dozens of dancers turning in cards with one, two, or even three BINGOs! Because of the fantastic engagement, we’ve decided that Back To Dance Bingo is officially a new tradition at the studio. Get ready for an even bigger and better Bingo next season!
And the Winner Is…
As a special thank you for jumping into our new tradition with such enthusiasm, every completed Bingo line earned a dancer an entry into our Welcome Back Raffle!
We drew a name from the bucket full of entries and are thrilled to announce our first-ever Back To Dance Bingo Grand Prize Winner:
🎉 Congratulations, LUNA KING! 🎉
[Winner’s Name] will be receiving a fantastic studio prize pack! Please stop by the front desk to claim your goodies!
A huge thank you to everyone who participated! Your excitement made this a truly special start to Season 11. Keep dancing, keep making friends, and stay tuned for more fun ways to Elevate & Celebrate this year!
Back To Dance Bingo!
What a blast it’s been getting back into the swing of things! We kicked off Season 11 with tons of energy, incredible dancing, and a brand-new way to connect our amazing studio family: Back To Dance Bingo!
The Buzz About Bingo!
For the first time ever, we turned those first two weeks of classes into a giant, studio-wide scavenger hunt and friend-maker! Our goal was simple: help our dancers, especially those in grade school, break the ice, meet new faces, and discover some of the fun elements around the studio.
If you haven’t seen it yet, here’s a peek at the Bingo card that kept our dancers busy (and giggling!) in the lobby:
A Special Note to the RFTB Community from Reyana
Dear Dance Families,
The energy in our studio is always rooted in kindness, community, and the belief that every dancer deserves to be seen, celebrated, and supported. Today, I want to share a deeply personal reason why that value of community means so much to me.
This month is an important time for Blood Cancer Awareness, a cause profoundly close to my heart. My own mother, a light in my life, lost her battle with a rare blood cancer a year ago in June. Her memory inspires me every day to fight—a fight to give others the hope, support, and opportunities she didn’t have.
This is why Reach For The Barres is partnering with Chrysalis Fitness to host a powerful, two-part fundraising event on Sunday, October 5th.
Move, Connect, and Save Lives with RFTB
This is more than just a class; it’s a chance to turn movement into a movement!
My hope is that through our collective action, we can raise vital money, awareness, and opportunities so that other families don’t have to face this battle alone.
Let’s standing together for a beautiful cause.

💖 What’s Inside?
Introducing Our Season 11 Slogan
The energy in the studio for Season 11 is absolutely electric! We’ve felt it in every plié, heard it in every tap, and seen it in every smile. We love our annual tradition of choosing a catchy phrase to define the year, and this season is no exception!
We’re thrilled to officially announce our Season 11 Slogan:
ELEVATE & CELEBRATE!
This powerful phrase is more than just a saying; it embodies everything we stand for here at Reach for the Barres:
Together, we will work hard to ELEVATE our dancing, and we promise to always CELEBRATE the unique spirit and progress of every dancer who steps through our doors.
Get ready for a season of reaching new heights! – XO, Reyana
