2024 Member Conference


Hello Leap ‘N Learn Members!

A big thank you to everyone who attended this year’s conference event in the US. It was so great to be back in Leap ‘N Learn’s original hometown, Lafayette Louisiana, with Beverly and Millie as well as so many wonderful LNL studios and their teachers.

Also a massive thank you to our wonderful host, Brie Castro and The Ballet Studio, Lafayette.

Below you can find recordings of the sessions and download any supplementary materials. We’ve done our best to record as much of the day as possible for you but please note, the event was tailored to in-person attendance and some things were not able to be filmed.

We are so excited for this next year ahead and to share with you all the new things we are working on at Leap ‘N Learn!

We thank you all for your presence and participation at the conference, and for your continued support and belief in Leap ‘N Learn.

Regards,

The Leap ‘N Learn Team
