Madi's New Cymbals

Madi's dance teacher had a special surprise for Madi at her last class.... a new set of cymbals!  Madi has hand clickers we bought her so she can "click" when the other kiddos "tap" during class, but her teacher thought it would be fun to try cymbals, so she can also "slide", and bought her a pair.  Madi had a blast with them!!  Here is a little clip of her cymbals in action.  She made sure to tell me she "danced her heart out" :)

 

 

 

First Dance Class!

Ever since we saw my niece dance at a recital, Madi has been asking to sign up for dance class.  I went in to our local community center (Conner does karate there) and talked to the instructor about modifying the class for her.  She was totally on board so we signed Madi up.  Today was her first day and she was all smiles!  She was totally on cloud 9!  Here's a photo and a video from her first day...

 

 

 

 

So fun!!  It is ballet and tap, so we are going to bring her little clickers to use with her hands during the tap part :).
