The entire dance team gathered last night for a dress rehearsal. With the first comp of their season just one week away it was time to get on stage and work out any final kinks. It also gave us mini team moms a chance to practice helping the girls change from one costume and hairstyle to the other.
Once the mini team was done with their dances they changed back into their warm-up suits and sat stage level watching all the other teams, solos, duos, and trios take the stage. I wish I had thought to take a picture of them all gathered right there. It was super sweet to see the first year dance team girls watching the girls who have been part of the team before. It was as if they were getting a glimpse of things to come! The support and encouragement that all of the dance team members have for each other is so very special! Being a part of the dance team, whether it's as s dancer, a mama, a papa or a sibling, really is like being part of a family. Not only has it been really neat to watch the girls bond deepen over the course of the year, but I think the same has been true for us moms (and dads) too!
Much as I expected, Grace and I didn't leave until after the last number had been danced. All of the dances look amazing!! I am so glad that we had a chance to see all of the Center Stage numbers before competition weekend. Looking forward to seeing them next weekend and to seeing how many awards the team brings home this year! xo
