Danceworks, where Ry takes dance lessons, has a Performance Team and something they call 'Company.' These are groups that take dancing to the next level! There are more commitments...a Holiday Show, recital, community performances, and a competition in Louisville. Class length is longer and there are rehersals for events. This is a lot more of a commitment than going for 50 minutes once a week and performing in one recital...BUT Rylee got a personal invitation from her teacher, Miss Heather!
Everyone 4 and up can audition for the Performance Team (older ones for Company), but those at Ry's age that got special invitations are part of the team! I actually asked about this today before we left dance and before I posted the blog about it. I didn't think they would have kids that young come audition for a team and then actually cut them, but I wanted to be sure. I wanted to know how to talk to Rylee about it if she wasn't to make the team...but we don't have to worry about that until she's older! She said at this age, they just want to make sure they are good listeners and know basic dance steps! So, next Thursday begins the journey into a stronger dance commitment! Her auditions are from 5:30-7 and she is so excited! We are so proud of her and think she is going to be an awesome dancer!!!
