Lisa & Michelle's Ecole de Danse

We are counting down the days to support Mrs. Michelle at the Femme Natales Runabout on September 14th!!

We ask that all dancers, current and former throughout all 41 years, please consider buying a button to show the huge number of girls and women that have been impacted by Mrs. Michelle. This special button will be for DANCERS (current and alumni only). We would love to see the support of our studio at the runabout to show how impactful her guidance has been to multiple generations. Please help us get the word out to any former dancers that you know and share the information!

Email the studio to order your L&M button! [email protected]

All L&M button orders must be made by August 22nd!! A pickup date and location will be emailed once ordered. Pins are $5 and can be purchased with cash, check, or Venmo to -Stafford. Payments can be sent through Venmo ahead of time or with cash/check on the pickup date that will be given.

Special thank you to our L&M alumni Maddie Clause for making these special buttons to show our love and support! MCreations

Come dance with us tomorrow!! Email the studio to sign up or for more information!

We would like to humbly share that our very own Mrs. Michelle is the recipient of the 45th Annual Femmes Natales Runabout. Please join us in supporting her on September 14th to show her how much she is loved, admired, and supported throughout our community.

This event will be a day of celebrating through walking/running, food, drinks, music, DANCING, and more!
