Dance classes started back on August 20th, and Abby was excited to try a new style this year - Jazz! (I also convinced her to take 2 days/week of ballet to improve her technique.) Her schedule is as follows:
Monday: Jazz 3:30-4:15 and Ballet 4:15-5:00 pm
Wednesday: Ballet 4:15-5:00 pm
Here she is, ready for her first day of classes!!
She has a new teacher for jazz, named Ms. Nicole. She is a college student at UA and part of the Bama dance team! Abby loved her immediately. There are 7 girls in her class and on the first day, they all caught on very quickly and did a cute routine! I think Jazz is the perfect class for Abby.....it's a mix of hip-hop and lyrical, with just the right amount of sass :)
For ballet, she has the same teacher as last year, Ms. Jenn. Now that she's in the 2 day/week class, they are a bit more serious and push her more. That's my hope at least! Abby doesn't *love* ballet, but she has a lot of potential if she decides to work hard. There are 14 girls in her class - more than I would have hoped for - but there are 3 barres for them to use so there is plenty of space. Look at my pretty little ballerina! :)
September is "Bring a Buddy" month, so Abby asked her friend Ella to join her for a jazz class. Ella had THE best time! These two girls are so silly together.
I'm excited to see what this year holds for our little dancing queen!
