This summer at camp, I learned quite a few dances. I took five dance classes Hip Hop Heaven, B.A.M ( ballet and modern), Dance Fever, Zumba, and Jazz Funk. I had a lot of fun learning all the dances. At the end of the second week of camp we had a preforming night called the Evening Noontime Show. The Evening Noontime Show is a night in which parents come and see a little sneak peak of what their kids have learned and created, because kids get to take other classes besides dance! Sadly, I could not make it to the Evening Noontime Show so they had to do the performances without me. Luckily on the last day of camp we have something called the Creative Arts Festival! The Creative Arts Festival is a day in which kids can show their parents even more things that they created or learned. I had so much fun!
Most of the dances I learned were choreographed by the dance teacher, but in some classes we got to make up our own dances ! Each person would have eight to sixteen counts in the dance. Once you knew what steps you wanted to use you would teach it to the class. When I was teaching my steps I was so happy! I normally make up my own dances but I don’t show it to people, So when I was told to make my own steps I worked hard on what my steps were going to be. Because the way I saw it was this is your chance to show people what kind of dancer you are and, to put yourself out there and that’s exactly what I did! Here are some of the dances I learned!
Zariel, it was so fun to watch the video of your routine. I’m very impressed with the variety of dance classes you were able to take this summer. What a wonderful opportunity!
