Dance Camp

As I said, Sage was able to go to dance camp at the studio where she dances last week. I am SO glad that we did this for her because she absolutely loved it. It totally renews her passion for dancing, AND she learns a TON. It was Monday through Friday from 10-1:30 with a 30 minute lunch break, so it was THREE hours of dancing. And the class was really small, so she really got a lot of one on one attention. She came home SORE and with a broken blood vessel in her foot one day. Yeah! Getting our money's worth! I am so pleased with all that she learned and the fun that she had. Of course, it was difficult leaving each day because Jaggar was determined to stay. One morning, I was talking to Jessica (another teacher) and found Jaggar in Sage's class that had already started stretching right along with the girls. Another day, he was on their bench waiting to be called for attendance. Poor boy. I got to take him out kicking and screaming daily. Good times. On the last day, we got to come in a few minutes before the day ended and see some of the things that they learned. It wasn't as much routine as technique oriented, which was good.

Here is the tap.
Here is the jazz, which was her favorite. I think she will get to take that this year too.
Here is the hip hop. I know she's mine, but I think Sage is good at what she does.

This is their teacher, Tracey, with the girls. This was the only picture we got with the girls because someone else, who had been trying to be a part all week, had to join.
And who was anyone to stop him?
I love him.
All of the girls. And Jaggar.

I love her dance moves, and I love that Jaggar is all up in the middle of it. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks, Alisha. Yes, we can always count on Jaggar to be all up in the middle of everything.
