Ticket to Broadway Regional Dance Competition

March 9, 2013We returned to Ticket to Broadway for our 2nd year, such a nice competition.  It was held at Penn State York’s performing arts center. We practically had our own dressing room backstage, what a treat!

Our entries were:
Tap Soloist Age 9-10 (junior division)
Tap Soloist Age 7-8  (petite division)
Jazz Duo Age 7-8
Jazz Small Group Age 7-8
Tap Small Group Age 5-6

All of our entries were awarded a Gold placement.  Our petite soloist got 5th overall and the duo got 2nd overall.  This was a first time on stage experience for all members of the small groups and they rose to the occasion.  Bravo!Image

Bucknell Basketball Performance

_1329659603_nOn February 2, 2013 dancers from Monday Jazz & Tuesday Hip-Hop performed a routine during halftime of the Bucknell Men’s Basketball Game.

It was a phenomenal experience.  The crowd cheered them on throughout the performance which ended in an electric applause at their final pose.  Not only did the group get to dance, but they got to meet the talented, Bucknell Bison Girls Dance Team, whom they were dressed to emulate.  Walking in the players hallway, meeting Bucky, and winning a pizza topped off this special event.

To watch the video of their performance as well as more photos, like us on Facebook, Downtown Dance Lewisburg PA.  Be sure to have your volume up!
