I feel like Sherwood Dance Academy is a place to feel and get out feelings and just dance. You can learn and have fun. I feel like dance is a place to be yourself and just DANCE. I feel like it is a great space to find friends and learn new things.
Some of my favorite memories are -
when I first performed - I liked doing chassé in a circle during our dance,
when I was in ballet class - I liked practicing soutenu
when I first learned Lyrical - I liked it because you can do cool leaps and booty rolls (rolling on the floor on your booty).
I had Miss Kindal last year and I have Miss Jen this year. My favorite thing about Miss Kindal is that she is kind. My favorite thing about Miss Jen is that she is making class fun.
