A Perfect Ending

With the girls beginning at Parker comes the ending of one dancing. Emma has decided to not dance this year, and while I am sad that we won't see her on stage (competitively or recreationally) anymore I am excited to see what awaits her, too. I am just so grateful that they were able to compete this gorgeous duo together last year. Though we did not know it at the time it was the perfect ending to her dance career. xo 

And That's A Wrap!

 

And just like that comp season has come to an end! These two left it all on that stage today! They danced all their dances so beautifully, but especially their duo! It was such a treat that they were allowed to dance without masks today (for everything other than production) and I truly believe it made all the difference! We are so proud of these two (and so incredibly sad that we won't get to see them dance this dance again)! xo

One Last Duo Practice

So This Happened...

 

When I picked the girls up from duo practice this morning they arrived at the car and said: "Check out what Ms. Lauri gave us!" I figured it was pins from their duo so was super surprised when they showed me these plaques! We didn't think they had placed at all and were super surprised to see that they had placed third in the 13-15 lyrical age group in their division! In non-Covid times awards are given out during the comp but with the pandemic still here changes had to be made. It's one studio in at a time and generally awards are given to the studio director to be handed out at a later time. Such a lovely and unexpected surprise this morning! We are so proud! xo
