Dance Competitions Are Hard to Practice For (Groan!)

Helloooo! I am so excited for April and May. Can you guess why? Here, I'll give you a hint: competitive dancing! Yep, you guessed it - my competitions are in April and May.

This year my dance studio is doing 4 competitions! I do not know the names of the competitions, but I am just as excited. Absolute Dance usually competes in 3 competitions but, this year they had a vote and the majority of the kids said they wanted to do 4. I voted to do 4, my friends did too, but... my friends and I kind of forgot that we are not in the Novice (easy) competition any more!😟😧😟

Just in case you don't know the levels of dance competitions, they are -

LEVELS AND NAMES

Novice= Easy
Junior= Normal
Intermediate= Hard
Advanced= Really hard!!
The thing is, the level names keep changing for each competition! These were the levels from the last competition, but I have a feeling they will change.🚫🙅 

I think that it is about time I tell you about all my dances.
I have 6 dances to perform, including a solo! 2 tap, 1 hip hop, 1 ballet, 1 jazz and 1 musical theatre. I know most of the names of my dances but the ones that I do not I will just say what they are about.

Tap Solo= Think
Tap= Happy Feet themed 
Hip Hop= Paw Patrol themed
Ballet= Synchronized Swimming themed
Jazz= Who Let The Frogs Out
Musical Theatre= Kung Fu Panda themed

I am so excited for my competitions and my team and I are doing the daily grind of practicing the choreography  . I can't wait to see how it goes, I'll tell you all about it in the spring and see you next week!
