So... who of you all watch Dance Moms?? This show is hilarious!!! Although the moms may be a little too much sometimes, the girls are pretty good dancers.

Hey everyone! I am on vacation right now with dancing dog. The beach is so much fun!! It is perfect for leaping across! The next time you are at the beach, smile, soak up the sun, and leap!!!! :)

Yay summer is finally here!!!! I hope everyone enjoys it and keeps dancing!!!

 UPDATE:
Hey everybody! I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend!

Considering that Dancing Dog, Dancing Monkey and I not only dance in our studio's recitals, but we choreograph our own performances for fun, we decided to update you on how our own performances are going.

As I said before, right now we are making our own little performance with the hunger games music! This coming weekend the three of us are getting together to start putting it all together! There will be pics and fun videos! I hope you stay tuned to see the upcoming updates for our hunger games performance {PART 1}. ☺

Here is a cool website with some really awesome ballet and dance covers for an iPhone!

HI EVERYBODY!!!

BLOOPERS:

BEHIND THE SCENES:

The making of the hot pink tutu and pointe shoe picture.

IDEAS AND THOUGHTS:

If you ever get bored there is a great ballet book called BUNHEADS. Dancing Monkey and I both read the book!
I HOPE YOU ENJOY!

Good news!!! Dancing Dog, Dancing Monkey and I are creating our own Hunger Games performance!!!
I know it sounds crazy but I think it will come together!

I am just now choreographing the second dance. Further into our progress we will post new pics of our progress!

Here is a poem a wrote in class today. I hope it gives you some good ideas and I hope you like it!!!!

ODE TO DANCE:

Dressed up in a frilly tutu,
is when all of my dreams come true.

Stepping out onto the stage,
I have been set free from my cage.

Going over the top of my tippy toes,
earrings, tiara and sparkly bows.

When the dream comes true that is mine,
I feel like my whole world is about to shine.

With a big smile upon my face,
I want this to last forever because it's not a race.

I finally begin to prance,
because it is now my turn to dance.

IDEAS AND THOUGHTS:

Moms are very important, because they are the ones that help take care of our stage make-up and sparkly costumes. Since mother's day is around the corner here is a link for some craft ideas to make tell your mom thanks for all of her hard work!http://www.enchantedlearning.com/crafts/mothersday/

YAAAAAAAWN


This dancing horse needs to get to its stables.

IDEAS AND THOUGHTS:

It's very important to stop and think and make sure you have everything you need in your dance bag. An important item that I always keep in my bag is a mini stitch kit for my pointe shoes. You can get your very own pointe shoe stitch kit at most dance stores.

Had sooo much fun in today's very successful dance rehearsal with dancing dog and dancing monkey!

IDEAS AND THOUGHTS:

Here's an idea! If you ever get bored check out the new dance show called Bunheads (not based on the book). Bunheads, the TV series premieres June 11th on Mondays at 9/8c.

ENJOY!!!!!

 IDEAS AND THOUGHTS:

So who here needs to watch a new show? Well, we have a great one for you! On Teen Nick, there is a show called "Dance Academy." We've seen a few episodes, and we like it. It is about a fifteen-year-old girl who gets accepted to a big dance academy. It's really good! If you want to learn more about it, you can go to this website:

HEY EVERYBODY! Sorry we haven't posted that much since we started the blog but we are trying!

I just wanted to thank everybody for checking out our blog it means soooo much to us thank you so so so much! ♥

DANCE TIP:
Hey guys, here's a quick tip. Make sure when you do pirouettes, that you always spot something to keep you from getting dizzy! (we have all had those times when the room is spinning!) GOOD LUCK AND STAY STRONG!

Went pointe shoe shopping this week! I love the look of new pointe shoes. They're just so pretty before you destroy them! Tip: Make sure your teacher checks your pointe shoes before you sew your ribbons and elastic on! You just want to make sure they're right!

IDEAS AND THOUGHTS:
For extra ballet fun here are 2 magazine brands you should get:

- POINTE MAGAZINE
-DANCE SPIRIT

DANCE TIP:

Eat healthy and drink a lot of water to keep yourself hydrated.

The work always pays off =)

Just having some fun!!!! =)

IDEAS AND THOUGHTS: 

Here's an idea, after your pointe shoes have died or have gotten too small, you can dye, sparkle and design them for a whole new look!

Here's our first tip: Always Stretch Out! We love to stretch... or we just do it because we have to! Anyway, we try to stretch whenever we can to help keep us nice and flexible! So, we want to suggest to you to stretch when your mind is doing something, but your body isn't. If that just really confused you, what I mean is you should stretch while you are doing things like watching TV, texting, or studying. Instead of sitting on the couch, use your time wiser by sitting in the splits and watching TV at the same time. It's a much better use of your time, and your dance teachers and you will soon notice a big difference in your extensions.

Inspirational Quotes

“Dance like there's nobody watching,

Love like you'll never be hurt.

Sing like there's nobody listening,

And live like it's heaven on earth.”

- William W. Purkey

“Great dancers are not great because of their technique,

they are great because of their passion.”

- Martha Graham

We're fools whether we dance or not, so we might as well dance.
