god I havent tap danced in years. I remember my first time being on stage I was so nervous! and jeeze changing costumes was a pain in the ass XD (I had taken both Jazz and Tap therefore I had more numbers to memorize XD)
When a 13 year old has FIFTEEN 5-minute dances, plus entrances and exits (no intermissions) to memorize (that leaves 30 seconds to change costume), you guys can't seriously be exhausted with your 4 dances!
Very cool, we actually did the Happy Feet song for our tap number last year and it was really cool because we had white fabric over our tap shoes and a black light so for the beginning it was all in the dark and all you could see was the feet. For the little 'We have to find our heart song..." we had one of the little girls come out dressed a a penguin and pantomime that part, she was the cutest thing ever!
I love it!! It's so nice to see classical tap dance. It seems like the syles of Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly went away,but this is a breath of fresh air! Thanks for posting!!
WOW that was just AMAZING! you are such good dancers!!!!!! i used to tap dance but i gave it up to horseride i wish i kept it up now keep up the good work you brilliant!!!
I do have a video of my 8-year-old daughter's solo and their small group tap (4 girls). The small group just won 1st Place Petite at Starquest Nationals 2007 in Virginia Beach. I just haven't had time to put it on YouTube yet. I will within the next couple of weeks.
