So when we got to the studio, we found out that Gwen and Cece were the only 2 little ladies signed up for the class. That was a little disappointing, because it would've been adorable to see a bunch of little ballerinas running around. But I was pleasantly surprised by the content - the instructor (Miss Krystn) really seems to know what she's doing. I honestly didn't know what to expect, but she had a good structure to the class, and kept things moving along. I kind of didn't want it to end!
First, she had the girls play with some toys to get them comfortable with the unfamiliar space (I think it helped that they know each other so well, too). Then we did some songs and movements in a circle, followed by some fun stretches - Gwen really enjoyed mimicking Miss K. After that we did some plie's and another ballet move (that I can't remember the name of) against the ballet bar. Then came some spacial awareness, climbing up and over a little obstacle. Miss K had Jade and me step away after that, while she played with some toys with the girls, so we could work on their separation anxiety (which they ended up having none of because they were together). She ended the class with a cute song and bubbles. I posted a video at the end of the post, of Gwen and Cece dancing around to the song. I have to say that Gwen really enjoyed herself! she kept asking "more? more?" after each activity was over. We're looking forward to next week! The pics that I have aren't great because we were doing the class with them most of the time, but here's what I was able to get:
