Showstopper National Dance Competition





We went to Galveston this weekend for the Showstopper Nationals dance competition. Like this whole year of dance, was a very interesting experience. I don't feel like a fish out of water anymore, but I still have a lot to learn. The girls did a great job earning a gold trophy for 'Devil in a Blue Dress' and platinum marks for 'Trouble'. They didn't score in the top 10 overall which meant that they weren't part of the live webcast on Sunday. (This also meant we got to come home a day early and pack, so maybe not a bad thing?) They did a great job on the Hercules production on Saturday and were first in their division. This says a lot about the girls because they had a teammate drop out right before we went to Nationals and they had to change choreography on both of the dances.
We're halfway through the summer and tryouts for next year will be in August. Madalyn is already excited to start learning the new dances.
