A Dance Update

So this update is mainly for my dance teachers and those who care about my dancing... just to let you know!

So, I met with Tanya Bakala from Mission Dance Centre. The meeting went REALLY well, I was really impressed with her studio and the way she teaches. I tried a class two days later and I really liked it, it was taught by a dancer from Ballet Kelowna. Mom and Dad and I met with Tanya officially and we discussed more in depth. It was really great. I shall be dancing there! I will be dancing Monday-Thursday and helping teach on Fridays. (Mrs. H - thanks to you, she's really impressed with my teaching abilities and I'll most likely be getting my own classes starting September) Mondays, I'm taking a pointe class, a flamenco class and Tanya's teacher training class. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday are the Junior Company classes. That mostly involves ballet... we are learning the 4 cygnets variation from Swan Lake (We are learning it on pointe too!) for the May performance :D It's so much fun!!! We also do hip hop... uuugh, that's new... and Contemporary and Jazz too. Fridays I help teach a 3 and 4 year old's class. It's quite entertaining! There's just one thing that's a bit weird... Mr. Beales, Tanya uses the SAME CD that you used for a long time... it's the one with a Schubert song for the tendus in Centre...
But otherwise, it's wonderful. I'm really enjoying it there... She's in a beautiful building, the Rotary Centre of the Arts, it's a great location! Only a 10 minute walk from our home!

Well, that's all for now... I shall be blogging (hopefully) weekly, to give you all a glimpse into our new life here.
