Members and Family-
This week has been a great practice week. All of our members have worked really hard and have shown great dedication. I am so excited for this year.
In watching the talent level and abilities of our dancers, I have decided that the lyrical we were going to have the new members learn is simply too beginning for our team this year. I've pushed our team a lot with our dance routine and in seeing their work ethic and potential, I believe the best thing to do is start over and choreograph for the team we have this year. It will be very stylized, emotional, and of course, technical. This decision I thought hard about. I want to help get this team as far as they can this year and I strongly believe by doing a new, more advanced lyrical, we can accomplish that. Returning members; know that the time you spent on lyrical was never wasted time. EVERYTHING is a learning experience and I believe you have all grown by practicing and perfecting the movement and emotion in that routine. Every dance, every turn, every step, every run through- helps you as a dancer for now and for your future careers.
Drill members; we will no longer be posting a video on facebook for you to learn. Instead, over our dead week, I'd like you to practice hard on the sections you have learned of our dance routine and really hit your stretching and technique training hard. By doing this homework, we won't be missing out on any needed practice time. We will post a video of you girls doing the dance routine on a facebook page so you can watch and practice over the week.
I'm so excited to choreograph our dance and lyrical routines for our team this year; know that YOU will be great! Continue the hard work!
