Rebecca performs in first dance recital
Rebecca has been studying ballet, tap and jazz dance styles for about three years now. Although she has taken exams judged by the Royal Academy of Dance, she has never performed in a recital – until last night. While Lisa and Mimi attended the recital and spaghetti dinner, Pepaw and I caught Justus’ end-of-year gymnastics banquet.
At the recital, there were about 20 dances in all, ranging from little ones to very gifted teenagers, including titleholders with Dance Masters of America as Ms. Dance, Ms. Teen, Mr. Teen, Ms. Junior and Ms. Petite of Texas (I know – I didn’t know such a thing existed either). Rebecca performed in two dances: a jazz class dance and a small group ballet. Thanks to Lisa for being the videographer for the evening.

Becca,
Very nice! You have worked so hard and it shows. We hope we can see a recital in person at some other date. I remember that you said they don’t give many recitals, but I think it is really important to do a few, so you can gain confidence in front of an audience. We are so proud of you!! Congatulations!
Love you, Grandma and Grandpa
Thank you!! It was very fun. I’m glad my studio finally did something. I think they are going to try to do some kind of performance every spring from now on. Thank goodness! 😀
