Lyrical Class!

Mackenzie spends a lot of time at the studio watching her big sister dance. Whenever possible I leave Kenzie at home to play while I take Megan to Hip-Hop and Lyrical on Friday nights. Last Friday however I was taking the girls to the opening night of HSM3, so I had to take Kenzie to the studio to watch Megan dance. After almost 2 hours of watching big sis in Hip-Hop class, Kenzie decided she was done watching, she was joining Lyrical class. So she snuck onto the door mat and started stretching with the class. The teacher immediately noticed and corrected her posture, but of course Mackenzie didn't stop there.

She started off stretching in the doorway!!


Megan working on those leg muscles!


Kenzie slowing moving off the mat and moving closer to her sister!


So excited to have not been kicked out of the class yet!!

Kenzie had never been asked to try the splits before, at least she tried!

Finally she made it all the way to the wall!! She is actually very limber!



Then the best part of all, Kenzie was allowed to do a few across the floors with the big girls! She did a great job considering she had never done this kind of dancing before. She learned to spot as she twirled across the floor. The director actually said I could place her into Jazz 1 which is reserved for the older girls. We are truly proud of how much she has improved this year!
