Kaitlyn's Dance Competitions 2009

What an amazing experience Kaitlyn has had this year dancing with the Downtown Dance Showteam. She has been on the Beginning Show Team and has loved every minute of it. Kaitlyn is a very good dancer and as her Instructor, Amy told me a year a go, "Kaitlyn is a natural!" She couldn't believe that she had danced for more than that year. I want to thank Amy Mow for being such an amazing instructor! She has instilled discipline, perfection, and a love for the art of dance in her dancers. Amy pushes her dancers to become better and strives to be the very best they possibly can. Amy not only loves her dancers, but she considers them her friends.

We went to our first dance competition in Ogden, Utah on April 18th. Then next weekend, May 25th we were in Draper, Utah and then the last competition was May 2nd in Idaho Falls. The Utah Competitions were spent with my girls and a few of their friends. We had a blast spend some time together. We went shopping, ate at Cafe Rio, and sat for hours watching the competitions. These are memories that will always be remembered.

The Downtown Dance Show Team did very well! They are so much fun to watch! The hours and hours of practice, have indeed paid off. They are really in a league of their own!

This weekend is the year end SHOWCASE RECITAL at Blackfoot High School. This Friday and Saturday night and will not only involved the Show Team, but also the level classes that are part of Downtown Dance here in Blackfoot.

This experience Kaitlyn has had participating on the Show Team has exceeded by far any expectation that I had. I so appreciate Amy for standing her ground and maintaining the high standards we all have. She will not dress our girls in immodest outfits, nor will she incorporate suggestive dance moves in any of her dances. Another thing that I thought was way awesome was that she prays with her group of dancers before they go out onto the floor to perform at the competitions. I am very grateful that my daughter has such a great example. Amy, thank you for all that you have done for my daughter, Kaitlyn.
