π©° Teacher Recital Throwback π©° This photo is from Ms. Abbey's second dance recital when she was 10 years old! It was a jazz dance to "Baby, I Need Your Lovin'." She doesn't remember much about the dance itself, but she does remember not loving the costume quite as much as she loves the ones she picks for our dancers today! π Experiences like these helped shape the teacher she is now. Ms. Abbey puts so much thought into every detail to make recital memories special for each dancerβfrom the costumes to the choreography and everything in between. π

π©° Teacher Recital Throwbacks!π©° This dance was Ms. Haleigh's first tap dance in a recital. It was either in 1999 or 2000 to "She Bop" by Cyndi Lauper. Ms. Haleigh still remembers some of the choreography π€£ . Her favorite memory from this dance was being so excited to be in a class with some of the more experienced, older dancers and looking up to them. She loves seeing her students be those kind, bigger kids who the littles look up to now. It all comes full circle! π
