Thank all of you that participated in the first candle dance practice, I thought you all looked darn good for a first run through! I saw it on video and it actually looked great. I'm sure once the candles are lit, it's gonna really look awesome! I hope you all liked the song..I picked it because it's serious (not too depressing), yet strong and graceful...appropriate for this type of memorial dance! I want you all to feel proud to be part of this dance, it will be very special and hopefully something you will always remember being a part of!
Next practice will be at Northcoast Dance Studio 12 noon, Sat. 4/19, I will try to keep it around 1hr long so as to not hog up your Saturday!

Sun, April 13, 2008 - 10:19 AMYes, from watching the practice, it does look really great, and everyone is picking up the choreography quickly. With so many more practices to go, it's going to be a very polished performance. I really like the song too, it sounds very processional and....I keep wanting to use the word grand or royal, but that sounds silly. Anyway. Plus, although it's a five minute song, the song/choreo never drags, it actually seems much shorter. I'm excited to see it on stage! Great job everyone!

I am glad I got to take my candle holders home though... it'll be easier to practice with them, and some tea lights burning inside :) -

Sun, April 13, 2008 - 9:03 PMEveryone did a great job! Choreography for large groups is a bit like herding cats and I think it went really well for a first run-through.
Keep me posted as I won't be able to make any more rehearsals (probably) until the ShiCu weekend. -
