Update on the Dance Team




Has anyone been wondering what the Dance Team is up to? Well I know I have, that is why tonight I decided to drop in to see what was going on. Loud noises, talking, and lots of movement filled the room as I walked in. On most days I am sure this kind of commotion would have bothered anyone, but for some reason it did not bother me at all.

A while back when the dance team started getting together they talked a lot about what they wanted the team to look like and what they wanted to do together for God. They all decided that they wanted to use their own talents in some way. Some were going to use their love of music, some dance, and some acting/theater.

Tonight the noise was coming from the boys on the base drum and the dancing from the girls. If you know VaDoll you probably know that he is passionate about playing the drums, and if you know Tyree you know he can definitely keep the beat going whether it is with his mouth, drum, table, etc… Many of the girls are really wonderful at dancing and also are really willing to learn new things.

Currently the students along with Mrs. Angela (dance team leader) are getting together their dance for the Black History celebration. It was so fun to see what everyone was doing to work together to make things fun and run smoothly. VaDoll, Tyree, Victor, and Icky were all working together to play a steady, but fun, beat on the snare and base drums. TT, CC, Diamond, and Cequoia were working to perfect the steps to the dance. It was really fun to see everyone working together to keep things going.

I was so pleased to see all of the students enjoying hard work and using their talents which God has given them to make something beautiful. I can not wait to see them all perform at the Black History Celebration.
