As we wrap up the month of love let’s show some love to all we have accomplished:
We started the month out with Buddy Boogie – a free and fabulous party for our 2-7 year old students and friends! Due to space constraints half the students were invited to this one and the other half will receive an invitation to the one in June. Check out a few pictures of the great time we had!
Our Sparkling Stars had another exciting month with sweet treat themed music. We also incorporated bean bags as our small prop this month. Bean bags can help with body identification (e.g. put the bean bag on your head), hand eye coordination (toss and catch the bean bag) and working to cross the body’s mid line as we toss with one hand and catch with another.
We also brought back out the crooked balance beam and hula hoops for our large prop. It’s always exciting to see what shape we will put it out and practice our 2 footed jumping in multiple patterns.
Our large motor activity – Exercise game #1 saw us moving all over the studio jumping, marching and crawling to name a few.
And lastly for our littlest friends we started working on cartwheels with our 4 and 5 year old students. Some of them have gotten the coordination down nicely and are really kicking their legs up there!
All classes have been working diligently on their recital dances and I am happy to report most are 2/3 of the way done. Costumes have been tried on and are currently extras put together along with packaging so they are ready to go home March 9th as long as March tuition has been received.
Our dancers that are going to Disney have started rehearsing their two numbers for their performances there. With a group of 9 dancers that spreads over 4 classes they have come together and worked so well and we couldn’t be prouder of them. I cannot wait to see them shine down there.
Last but not least – a giant thank you to all who came and danced with us during Dance With Your Love week. I hope you enjoyed getting a different peek at what we do every week in class and I know the kids truly enjoyed having you there.
