Recitals are a great experience for students to learn to perform and share skills they have learned over the year.  While performing is a necessary part of dance education, recitals are not the focus and can often detract from technique skills learned in the classroom.  Because of the distraction recital preparations can become, formal recitals will only be held every other year.  On off-years, a simpler worship performance will be held.

However, what's more important than showing off our skills in technique is revealing the glory of God to those outside of families and friends.  Many people believe that dance is only a sensual and provocative art meant solely for the purpose of  showing off our bodies.  Instead, dance can and should be used as a way to interpret and shine God's word to others.  As such, "morning star" students are encouraged to prepare for various liturgical performances during the year, and display them together at Church performances, holiday celebrations, evening services and more as occasions arise.
