Competition!

It's competition time!!! This weekend will be my studios first competition of the season!! I am very excited, and so are my classmates and teachers. These past couple of weeks have been very intense classes, consisting of running our dances over and over and over again! We have not been doing much stretching or practicing technique or stuff. But that's ok, cause the extra practice is good and needed for some of my classes. I am so excited!!!!

Do you or any of your family members compete? Do they enjoy it?

Sick Dance Teachers

One of my dance teachers has been sick for the past couple of weeks, which makes class hard for both her and the students. We are trying to work on our ballet dance that we will be competing with in a couple of weekends. It is hard to correct the dance when the teacher is not feeling their best. You should also be nicer and more open to the teacher and their advice when they are ill; to make them not as sad and feeling yucky. Maybe get or make them a get well soon card for the whole class to sign! That would be an extremely nice thing to do to brighten their day.

Has your dance teacher ever been sick? If so, how has it affected your class?
