Today was the big California Dance Institute demonstration/show. It was pretty good. I'll be processing and posting some video of this soon for the benefit of those who could not make it. Our students did quite well, demonstrating some of the best focus and sharpest movements yet. I was quite proud of them. The first show was probably the best: the students were a bit tired by the second show and the parents were a more appreciative audience than the third grade classes. But both shows were pretty solid.
The afternoon was devoted to a dress rehearsal of our show on Friday. There is always a certain note of panic about the first dress rehearsal, and the students were definitely tired from the morning workout and not doing their very best work. Still, we have another rehearsal tomorrow and I feel pretty optimistic that it will all come together wonderfully by the end of the week.
Homework: We never got back to the room in time for me to post it and pass it out! So our homework fiends will be sobbing into their pillows tonight in disappointment, but there's nothing to be done about it.
