thanks to a discount offer on Groupon we have entered the world of dance. Kate was thrilled about the idea of Ballet. We go the shoes and the leotard and tights.... then we found out that it would be a ballet + tap class. Just a six week little course. So my mom found a pair of resale tap shoes and we were ready.
Kate LOVED the ballet. LOVED it. She was attentive and deliberate in her motions. She mimicked the instructor from her front and center position - which she claimed immediately. Then they jazzed up the music and changed shoes. The room was filled with clickity clacking. Kate went wild for a few minutes inventing her own steps and the plopped down in the middle of the floor and said - I am tired.. I dont like tap.
Well, hopefully she will just build her stamina and enjoy it by the end of the term ... but knowing my daughter, the statement has been made and she will most likely cling to her declaration.
Ballet is Awesome = Tap is Awful.
No matter what she looks adorable and I love that I have a small ballerina in the house, even if it 's only six weeks.
