Hannah just [three weeks ago] completed her third year of dance! This year she took a tap/ballet combo class and then a hip hop/jazz/tumbling class. She and her friend Avery took these classes back to back and did a wonderful job. I was concerned at first that it might be a little much, but she never complained even once about being tired or not wanting to go. She loves dancing!! I kept asking which class she liked better, but I don't think she ever landed on a clear winner.
I think dance has helped her be comfortable and confident in her own skin, which is so important. I have always been slightly concerned that her long body would be sort-of awkward to get used to as she grows. The girl is TALL. But, I think that dance has really helped her be aware of how she moves. I look forward to continuing to see her learn and improve.
As you would expect with two classes, she was in two dances in the recital. The first was a hip-hop dance to the Chipmonk's version of 'Shake Your Groove Thing'. Oh my! This was a SHOW STOPPER!!! The girls did great and had so much fun!
Her second show was a tap dance to 'The Charleston'. It was a higher-level class, which was definitely more complicated than in years past. Again, they did a great job and the dance was beautiful!
