Dance for Fun

This afternoon a handful of the dancers from Ava's dance studio performed for some kids attending a camp at a local elementary school. It was a stark contrast from last week's competition. Only 4 of the 11 dancers from Ava's group could make the performance today. The routines were nowhere near perfection, as the girls kept looking at each other trying to figure out how to dance with so many people missing. Two of the older girls' groups only had 3 dancers come. And yet, they danced beautifully for their audience. They were performing solely to entertain. The audience loved it, and the dancers did as well. Our dance studio is very big on the priority being to have a good time and not what awards we win, but it's automatic at competitions to strive for perfection. This performance today was purely for the joy of dancing, and I genuinely enjoyed seeing these dancers share their passions and talents with others.
