🎉 Backbend Variation Series: Inside Out! Part 2 🤸‍♀️
Ready for a challenge? Today's backbend (bridge) variation is called Inside Out and it's designed for more intermediate tumblers who already have a strong, controlled bridge.
✨ How it works —
You can begin in either a Downward Dog or a Bridge position. From there, you'll rotate your body outward and then return back inward, carefully turning through your wrists while maintaining control throughout the movement.
💡 Focus
✔️ Rotating smoothly through the wrists
✔️ Opening through the shoulders and armpits
✔️ Keeping your core engaged for stability
✔️ Moving slowly with control not speed

⚠️ This is an intermediate skill, be sure to warm up thoroughly and only attempt it if you already have a solid bridge and good shoulder flexibility.
💕 Would you like to see more bridge and backbend variations? Let me know in the comments! I'd love to keep this series going.

💡 Remember these key corrections:
🩰 Control the lowering of your leg.

What an incredible week of Fame Dance Challenge Nationals in Virginia Beach! 🌊❤️🖤❤️
Our Competitive Team took the national stage and showed just how much they have grown this season. I couldn't be prouder of each dancer. They have improved technically, performed with confidence and showmanship, and, most importantly, demonstrated outstanding sportsmanship throughout the week.
The master classes in jazz, lyrical, contemporary, and hip-hop challenged every dancer, but they embraced each opportunity, worked hard, and never gave up. That determination is what makes this team so special.
✨ Nationals Results:�🏆 Petite Soloist�Celina – Pretty Picture Award, High Gold
🏆 Junior Soloists�Lily – High Gold�Katie – High Gold, 3rd Place Overall & Costume Award
🏆 Teen Soloist�Abby-Ann – Platinum & Pretty Picture Award
🏆 Group Awards�Footprints in the Sand – Storytelling Judge's Choice Award, High Gold & 3rd Place Overall�Surfin' USA – High Gold�Walking on Sunshine – High Gold
This season has been one of tremendous growth, and I am so excited for what the future holds for this team. I can't wait to begin creating new choreography during our Summer Workshop classes!
Enjoy the rest of your week, dancers! I look forward to seeing everyone back in the studio on July 14 as we continue reaching new heights together.
Congratulations, Team Jitterbugs! 🧑‍🩰

Preschool Dance Warm-Up Series: Part 2 🎶
I love incorporating familiar songs like “Open, Shut Them”into every preschool dance class. ❤️👯
A consistent warm-up routine helps little dancers:
✨ Feel comfortable and confident
✨ Know what to expect from the beginning, middle, and end of class
✨ Build listening skills by following directions through music
✨ Stay engaged because singing captures attention and the words provide movement cues!

✨ Ballet Technique Spotlight: Grand Battements✨

One of the most exciting exercises at the barre is the Grand Battement-a powerful kick that develops strength, flexibility, control, and proper alignment. The goal isn't just to kick high; it's to lift the leg with precision while maintaining a strong core, beautiful posture, and turned-out supporting leg.
Today's combination:
🩰 4 Front
🩰 4 Side
🩰 4 Front
🩰 4 Side
🩰 6 Front
🩰 Sous-sous
🩰 Demi Détourné
🩰 Repeat on the other with 6 Front
Remember:⬆️ quick... Down slow! The slow descent is where dancers build strength and control.

✨✨✨In all of my Preschool Dance classes, I love to start with a warm-up song that is familiar to the children. 🩰 A familiar song helps create a sense of community, provides comfort, and builds confidence before the formal class begins.👯
One of my favorite warm-up songs is 🕷️The Itsy Bitsy Spider🕷️While singing and moving, we introduce important ballet concepts such as 1st position feet, 3rd or 5th position arms, bo***ée turns, and gentle hamstring stretches. The children are having fun while developing coordination, balance, and foundational dance skills.❤️🖤❤️
Stay tuned as I share more of my favorite Preschool Dance songs and how they help young dancers learn and grow!
