π± Studio Phone Number Update
Our studio phone number is now 509-514-7525. This number is monitored by our admin team, so you may receive a response from someone other than me (Jenna).π§ Dance Communication Reminder

admin@soulstudiospnw.comThis includes questions about:
Tuition
Recital
Enrollment or unenrollment
Scheduling or general dance program questions
This email address was shared in our original paperwork and emails, but I completely understand how busy life can get! Using this central inbox helps us keep records of communication clean, organized, and easily accessible for our team.
π² When to Text
Please feel free to text the studio number if you need a quick response about a class (same-day questions, attendance, etc.). For everything else, the admin email is the best place to reach us.β¨ Looking Ahead
