It's costume try-on week!
The majority of the costumes are finally here and we've been having a ball trying them on and practicing our dances :-)
Tidbit heard today:
E: "I can't jump in first position because my hair is curled"

imagination
A big part of our preschool dance classes is using our imaginations. We often make believe we are dancing through something or around something or picking something up on our way across the floor practicing steps. The students are always eager to know "what are we going to pretend today?"
Last night, in the pre ballet class, we first practiced glissades across the floor pretending we were in a field of clovers and flowers, collecting them for our bouquet. On the way back across the floor, we were eating all sorts of different kinds of candy and treats. So, when we switched to the next move, the students were asked about something that would make their tummy happy (to help offset the sugar rush). Some suggestions were: apples, carrots, milk, strawberries and Nutella. :-)
Hey, whatever makes your tummy happy, right?
