Fun Ballet Attire (Monday & Tuesday)

This week is Fun Ballet Attire week! With Valentine's Day being on Tuesday, a lot of pink and red showed up. :) Everyone was very creative!

Wee 3 (missing two girls) with Miss LeAnn

Basic 1 with Miss Jubilee

Wee 2 with Miss Anna

Ballet I/B (missing one)

Ballet II (missing one)

Basic 2 (missing two) with Miss Natalie

Wee 1 with Miss Miriam and Miss Anna

They kept wanting to do their own pose instead of standing in neat rows, so I finally let them. :) This picture always shows why I don't let them dress up every week - they're much more distracted with looking at themselves!

Ballet IV - splashes of color!

Songs for "Unchanging"

While my KingsPrasieBallet.com website editor is down, I'm posting the list of songs included in "Unchanging."

It's recommended that you buy the song for your student's class, so that they can practice at home. It will really make a difference, since we only have class once/week, and practicing at home causes them to work hard to remember the dance.

Even better, videotape them doing the dance during Parent Observation Day (March 12-15), and that way you'll have the song according to how I cut it, along with the movements to practice with!

Click the links to download them for around $1 at Amazon.com, or look them up on your favorite music supplier.
