Dance class is going very well . . . we are hard at work finishing up/polishing our routines for the upcoming recital. Two more classes, one dress rehearsal, and then we perform on the 25th! I'm having a good time tap-tap-tapping in "Singin' in the Rain," our jazz piece. So far, no one's gotten an eye poked out by one of the numerous umbrellas used in that piece, heh. Learning how to moonwalk for our hip-hop routine (to David Bowie's "Golden Years") was way cool. (I moonwalk in the kitchen all the time now . . . once you learn, it's really easy and addicting because it's such fun.)

song and dance
I don't think I've mentioned this here, but in January I started taking voice lessons. I'm taking them from Tina (musical director for Fiddler on the Roof, "Mama" in I Remember Mama), who rocks. I've only been taking them every other week, so I haven't had a ton of lessons yet. We've been working on the song "How Could I Know?" from The Secret Garden, which is lovely. She also helped me out with my song for the High School Musical audition. Already I can feel how much my voice has grown.

Hah hah. Yes, props can be dangerous. "Golden Years" is good song...always makes me think of A Knight's Tale.
