On Saturday, January 24, AMA’s Annual Student Appreciation Party was attended by over 150 students and their families! When our students checked in, they received a royal crown with their name on it. This extremely busy afternoon was filled with wintery crafts and a fun dance routine taught by Miss Jen to “I Can’t Wait to Be King!” A tumbling demo with some of our students was led by our very own instructor (and former Jessie White tumbler!), Mr. Chester.

We snacked, we laughed and we can’t forget all the raffle prizes! No one left empty-handed. Everyone is a winner at AMA! All students left the party with a gift.

And if that wasn’t enough, each AMA teacher was dressed as an awesome Disney character! All students had the opportunity to take pictures with their favorite characters against our “Castle” background. It was so much fun!

A great time was had by all! We loved seeing so many parents attend and join in on the fun! Thank you to all our AMA families. You. Are. Appreciated!
