Great Gatsby Showcase 2014

On May 22, 2014, my ballroom studio Enlight Ballroom hosted their end of the year performance, and it was an amazing experience! Every team performed magnificently, as well as great dancing.

The dances that my team (Junior Red) performed were Paso Doble to One Final Effort from the Halo game, Jive to Hey Ya by OutKast, Latin Medley to soundtracks from Men in Black 3, and a Standard Medley to the soundtracks from Oz the Great and Powerful.

This photo is of our Paso Doble:

'Twas a jolly good time, and everyone enjoyed themselves. But no matter how lovely the evening was, it was the last night of performing the routines we've learned over the school year. 

Last Saturday we had our auditions for Enlight Ballroom teams, and sadly, Chandler, Clayton, Jerrica, Genesie, and Micayla are moving onto the Youth teams. But, we are also excited for them to move on and experience new teams, pressures, and performances.

Thanks to my coaches for a wonderful year of dancing, and looking forward to starting a new dance year this fall!
