Here are a just few of the fun things we’ve done this past week…

Nursing Home in Fenton, MI
Thursday was our second visit to the Fenton Nursing home (our first was last May). It was lots of fun to be able to go back and recognize some of the residents and staff members. One of the residents enjoyed our performance so much that she decided that she and a nurse should run off and join the ballet!

Workshop in Frankenmuth, MI
On Friday we headed back to the quaint town of Frankenmuth (it was a little less snowy this time), where we held a workshop for over 40 students. Ballet class, modern class, choreography, Israeli dancing…. The dancers were wonderful to work with and we all had a great time! A couple of people took pictures for us that we will hopefully be able to post soon!
After the workshop they took us out to a restaurant in downtown Frankenmuth called Zhenders. We decided that our favorite thing to eat there was the enormous, double chocolate brownie :0)

Workshop in Jackson, MI
We held an all day workshop in Jackson, MI at 1st Church of Christ Christian on Saturday. There were 16 participants from the age of 4 to 13. All of the students learned their dances quickly – we were very impressed. The 4-6 year olds loved all the activities we had for them especially the Bible story. They all had to be right up close to the book and be the first to point out all the animals. Very cute! At the end of the workshop the students had the opportunity to perform for their families and friends. They all remembered their dances…well mostly. It was a great performance!
