Clayton was enrolled in Pre-Dance at Dawn's Dance Connection in Spirit Lake. Pre-Dance is for ages 3-5 yr. olds and consists of 1/2 hour of tumbling and 1/2 hour of dance every week! Every Thursday, Clayton, Myles and I headed over to Spirit Lake for class. Clayton enjoyed it so much and the 9 months went by very quickly! While Clayton was in class, Myles and I had time to run errands together!Clayton met a lot of new friends and i did too! It was so nice to meet other moms in the area and make some connections! Myles enjoyed just tagging along:)
The big ending to the year was the dance recital of course! It was SO much fun! Clayton's class performed some tumbling and dance to an Aladdin Medley of songs. It was under 2 minutes! :) Each student had a costume in a different color! Clayton pulled off the pink well I think:) They all did so very well and we were so excited to watch him on a big stage! He knew his routine and enjoyed it a lot! There are many students in the recital and we watched lots of great talent. Clayton loved the "big" boys tap and hip hop. We are waiting patiently for the DVD of the recital to arrive in the mail and I anticipate watching it over and over again!
A fun bunch of great friends from Lake Park waiting patiently behind stage for their big debut!
The studio is holding a dance camp in June and Clayton will go two mornings and try out some different things: tap, jazz, hip hop, tumbling, and some others......
He is looking forward to some fun dance time and will maybe find a style he likes for next year.
Royce and I think this has been a very positive experience for him! It builds a lot of character!!
