Arts Festival

Posted on April 30, 2013 by downtowndancepa

This past weekend Downtown Dance performed at the Lewisburg Arts Festival! It was a gorgeous day outside, and the dancers brought in quite the audience to watch them perform. One soloist, Mya, even made the cover of the Sunday issue of The Daily Item. It was great practice for the recital… which is a little over a month away!

You can view more pictures from The Daily Item by clicking HERE.

Dowtown Dance pairs up with the Bison Girls!

Posted on April 17, 2013 by downtowndancepa

The Downtown Dance dancers’ paired up last night with Bucknell’s Bison Girls Dance Team for a fun class! We met at Bucknell University, where the Bison Girls led the dancers through their team warm up and then everyone broke off into groups to choreograph dances to the popular song “Gangam Style!” We then took turns performing, watched the Bison Girls dance, and performed our Recital pieces for them. The dancers all had a wonderful time, and can’t wait to do it again in the Fall.
