The homeschool ballet program at HADC is top notch!  This was our first year to try ballet and both girls were in the same class.  The teacher’s prayed with the girls before every class and every performance. 

The company does a huge production every other year, and this year they adapted the story of Rigoletto for ballet.  The directors always consider the message of the story for the glory of God.  Some mothers drive nearly an hour to bring their children for class–it’s that good. 

I have a short video clip from our dress rehearsal of my daughter’s dance.  It is beginning ballet and most of the girls are 6 years old.  My oldest, Heidi (10), was also in the class since this is her first year dancing, and the younger girls really looked up to her.  She will be skipping a level this fall  to join girls closer to her age and will take 3 classes a week.  It’s amazing to see how she has gained confidence and poise, but also how it has helped rewire her brain.  Heidi’s learning disability is slowly becoming less and less and  it is my hope that if we continue with Ballet and Violin that it will be nothing but a faint memory.

It’s so fun to go to a place where we share values, and a love of teaching our children.  When I first arrived, I entered a room full of godly friendships and good influences for my girls.  It’s a safe place to grow.

Having fun in the wings before the show

I love the tiny feet waiting for bows

Bravo Girls! I'm so proud of you.
