Our end-of-year recital is a chance for our students to show off their dance skills. Each class performs a recital dance related to their focus. The recital is held in June, and we have a dress rehearsal in our studio before the performance at a local venue.. The recital is optional, but we encourage every dancer to try it! It's an incredible opportunity to showcase your talent and hard work to family and friends, and we promise it will be an unforgettable experience.

DESPA'S Annual Nutcracker Tea
Our Nutcracker Tea is a beloved tradition in Clemmons, and we are proud to be the original Nutcracker Tea of the Winston-Salem Area. In December 2023, we celebrated our 10th annual Nutcracker Tea and were thrilled to welcome guests from all over the Triad.
​​
At the Nutcracker Tea, guests attend a tea party where they can watch dancers perform excerpts from the Nutcracker, create crafts and indulge in tasty snacks. It's a great opportunity to experience the magic of the holidays and enjoy some quality time with family and friends.
​
Dancers interested in performing in the Nutcracker audition in August and learn choreography on the weekends. They perform at the Tea for guests. Participating in the Nutcracker is completely free.
