TJHS Dance Showcase

Over the weekend, Friday April 25th, Artistic Dance Centre and the TJ High School dance team participated in a dance showcase at Governor Thomas Johnson High School (TJHS). The following dances from my studio were performed:
-My Modern Jazz solo to "The Lioness Hunt"
-Me and Anna's Jazz duet to "Go Crazy"
-A Lyrical small group to "I'll stand by you" with Anna, Chelsea, Taylor, and I
-Caitlyn's Tap solo to "Mambo Lido"
-Chelsea's Jazz solo to "Shake your Groove Thing"
-Taylor's Tap solo to "Hip Hip, Chin Chin"
-Anna's Jazz solo to "Knock on Wood"
-Katie's Jazz solo to "Oh so Quiet"
-Katie and Caitlyn's Musical Theatre duet to "Mama I'm a Big Girl Now"
-Our prep company Jazz dance to "Privacy"
-Our Prep company Tap dance to "Little Shop of Horrors"
The showcase went very well! Although we didn't have a large crowd, everyone still had fun. My solo went well and so did our duet, but according to my mom, our small group wasn't very together so we sill have to work on that dance the most.

It was our studio's first time seeing the TJ girls perform, too. They did an excellent job. I really enjoyed their one baton duet to "The Great Escape." I was amazed at what they were able to do when I can't even twirl a baton. My friend Callison is on the TJ dance team and she did a Tap duet with her little sister Katelyn to the song, "We Go Together." It looked great, but their mother was happy it was over because she was sick of their fighting.

It was my first time performing my Jazz duet with Anna and my Lyrical small group because of my injury. I found that this showcase was good practice for my upcoming competition this weekend, On Stage America. This event will take place on Friday, May 2nd-Sunday, May4th in Baltimore Maryland. I will let you know our results soon!
