Savannah took a summer ballet and tap class. She cried in the first one since the slippery shoes (tap shoes) caused her to fall down, I was there and then banned from coming. We were allowed back to the final class. She did not want to participate again and was more interested in the snacks in my purse. I finally told her to go out and dance or I was leaving to go back to work....she went out and danced but was more interested in posing for other parents cameras and watching to make sure we were watching her!
Hands on your hips and a smile on your lips! Miss Leslie must have said this about 25 times but then again they are 2 1/2 to 4 1/2 years old!!!
Some Ballet moves by Savannah. She actually learned quite a bit and knows the first 5 positions and their names.
Dancing with streamers was one of all the girls favorites!
More ballet dancing will be in her future if the parks and rec. gods honor our request to continue in class in the fall! I will just once again be banned and Grandma will have to take her and wait for class to be over.
Kyle has been performing with his Taiko group. Here they are in Morgan Hill. This was to welcome the sister city's students that had come to visit from Japan. The BBQ was for the host families and the students. He is the one in the back row with the smaller drum-near the fan.
This is at the opening of the Pearl Ave. library opening. There was hardly any people when they started playing but by the time they were done the place was packed.
My very serious taiko drummer boy. He really needs to practice more but he loves it. His RSP teacher in the front is from Cedar Grove and he is going to miss her next year. She had him from the time he was in first grade and introduced him to Taiko drumming.
Watch out if there are sticks around----Kyle could defend himself and kick some butt!!!
Back to serious face-trying not to mess up......He will be performing again soon and needs to get lots of practice time in before then.This is a nice outside of school activity that Kyle will be able to enjoy for a long time.
