Stars in the Spotlight
This month's star in the spotlight is five year old Kiera.
Kiera has been working very hard on her ballet exercises and posture at home.
She is a beautiful ballerina when she dances. She is practising to take her first exam, Preparatory Ballet in 2 weeks time.
Kiera takes classes for two hours a week on a Saturday. She has just started learning acrobatics, modern jazz, lyrical and tap.
She says her favourite exercise is kicks. To do this she lies on her back with her hands by her side and tries really hard to keep her leg straight and point her toes and lift her leg as high as she can, all at the same time.
Well done Kiera
Brooke
Congratulations this month go to 4 year old Brooke who is in her second term of classes with the school.
Brooke, who will soon turn 5, takes classes in Modern Jazz, Lyrical, Tap and Acrobatics. She is the youngest dancer in her class but that does not faze her. She always brings her smile with her and works hard all through the class, even when its really hard.
She is our star this month because she was the only dancer in her class who remembered all the steps for the groups new modern jazz dance. The dance requires fast movement of arms and legs in a coordinated sequence and Brooke performed it with lots of energy and enthusiasm.
Her teacher Michelle gave her a huge Hi 5 at the end.
Brooke says the dance "Raining Sunshine" is her favourite. Watch out for it in our performance in July.
Well done Brooke, keep up the good work.
