Ava's Dance Recital

Ava had her second mini-dance recital on Saturday. These past two recitals are preparation for their big end of the year recital that is put on at a local high school. They try to prepare the younger girls to preform on a big stage by putting them on the smaller stage in the studio.

This time, Ava would be doing her jazz dance piece. They did a dance to Chubby Checker's "Let's Twist Again". The costume was, of course, a pink poodle skirt over her regular black leotard. They also added pink scarves for their neck and hair. They were all so precious.

The dance went very well. The girls preformed wonderfully. And this is not a "proud mama" statement, but her class was the best group that morning. I think it may have a lot to do with the fact that they were doing a jazz dance and not a tap dance. Let's just say that a bunch of 3yo's tapping is not the most perfected thing. It was hard to tell anything they were doing.

At any rate, we are so proud of Ava. She did wonderfully. More importantly, Ava really, really enjoys dancing. She loves being on stage preforming, as well. For me, it is just great to see your child loving the same things you are passionate about, too.
