Dance - A Different Direction

When she was a wee little girl, Maddie took

some ballet and tap lessons! 

 She loved them, 

but later decided to try gymnastics and tumbling.

She also loved that and then decided to try cheer

and set a goal of being a cheerleader in high school!

That was so much fun and 

she also loved it -- but the schedule

last year -- oy vey -- too much!

So, it's back to her first love -- dance! 

 She has been doing tap for the

last couple of years along with cheerleading.

Every time she comes out of her tap class,

she has the biggest smile on her face!

She's taken ballet this summer and starting

in September, she'll be back in tap

and trying jazz in addition to ballet.

She asked me what I thought jazz was like . . . 

of course, I did crazy jazz hands! 

I don't have a clue --

remember, I can't keep a beat, so dance

has never been my strong suit.
