Prima Ballerina

Although Jadyn is loving her tumbling class, she was still showing interest in taking an actual dance class. I was hesitant because we tried a dance camp over the summer and she was too shy to participate but then again this was before preschool and tumbling. Therefore, we decided to try again and this time, it went much, much better. Because of her age, the class is called creative movement but I would more accurately label it pre-ballet and I love, love, love the way instructor teaches them ballet in such creative ways such as having them put on butterfly wings and flutter around or giving them each a baby doll and having them cradle and rock them to sleep. Jadyn loves it, especially the part where she gets to dress up like a ballerina.

So the plan was to have her choose between tumbling and dance but she is pretty adamant that she wants to do both. Therefore, after careful consideration we decided to let her do both classes through the spring but once summer comes, she will need to make a choice which one she likes better. I know what my choice would be but I really want it to be up to her. For now we have one busy, happy active little girl.
