My post for Tuesday 9-23-08

Paige's tap class shared their dance of the month with us last night. It was a pretty fast song, but they stepped up to the challenge. Miss. Rachel has been teaching this group of kids for the past couple of years and she does not cut them any slack, and because of that they push themselves and feel pleased with the results.

Megan had her first beginning Jazz class with Miss. Erin tonight. She had been on the waiting list since the class was full. One of the girls switched to an earlier time so Megan got in. She had been watching the class from the doorway for the past few weeks. When she danced with them tonight is was like she had been there the entire time. It is a 1st - 2nd grade begining Jazz class so Megan is one of the older girls in the class. She has also been dancing since she was 3 so this was a piece of cake for her. As Miss. Erin said "like a duck to water". Megan was thrilled to get a class with Miss. Erin, she had been Megan's teacher when she was 3, 4 and 5, and she is really sweet. Now that Megan is in two dance classes she qualifies to be in the holiday show ("The Nutty Nutcracker") so both the girls are signed up for that. More details will follow.
