First of all, let me just say that Miss Laurie (Addie’s ballet teacher) has MORE patience than ANYONE I have ever met! Ha. This was the first week no parents were allowed into the class. The way CDF is set up is that (for the little kids) there is a “parent’s lounge” that is set up on the other side of 2 way glass looking into their class. I’m pretty sure as soon as it was time for all 7 girls to go into class, every single one of them was crying. However, within 2 minutes, Miss Laurie had all most of them happy and dancing. She is seriously gifted! Addie did SO well this week! (I like to go into situations like these with VERY low expectations. That way I’m pleasantly surprised when she actually participates and does well!)
(also…as you just read…these are taken from behind 2 way glass…so the picture quality isn’t great!)
Ring around the Rosey
Dancing around Miss Laurie
It’s a “Movement to Music” class (I love that each class has a piano player in it!), so they have scarves/drum sticks/shakers to keep their attention through the 45 minute class.
Oh, the cuteness.
Tapping to the rhythm.
They were ALL very attentive and intent on doing what they were told.
Tapping on their tiptoes
Teaching them to point their toes
Jumping over the beams
More Dancing to the music
She was concentrating so hard on what she was supposed to be doing, it was so funny!
Then she decided, at the end of her class, it was time to make up her own choreography. Ha.
She has next week off for the 4th of July holiday, so she’ll go back in 2 weeks. Hopefully it goes just as smoothly then!
