First Day of Dance Class!

Analese did so well in her dance class today! She is in the 3-4 year class and they are called the "Jazzy Bugs." She caught right on and did not have any trouble. They started out doing 15 minutes of tap. They did creative movement tapping and hitting the sticks together. Then they did 15 minutes of ballet. They did creative movement sitting on the floor and pretending that they were driving race cars and that their legs were a straight road in front of them. Then they would do stretches. Then they did 30 minutes of gym time. The first several minutes in the gym they appeared to be running laps. Analese loved this and she had a big grin on her face and would wave at me every time she came back around to the window where I was sitting on the other side. She did have a collision with another girl and this caused a momentary upset. I went in and hugged her and she was soon back with the rest of the class. I was so incredibly proud of how well Analese listened and followed the directions of her teachers (I wish she would listen to me and follow MY directions that well). She just really seemed to be in her element in this class. She looked like a budding ballerina to me! Here are a few pics that I took with the iphone (through the window):
