Spanish Rehearsal

I had my first Spanish rehearsal last night! We only learned 10 seconds of choreography, but that was my fault. Everyone else in my class has been a Spanish dancer before, so I got a lot of the attention. Miss Pat Sorrell is my choreographer and her way of teaching is different from what I'm used to.
When I first came into the room, there was a little TV in the corner. So we sat around it and watched last years Spanish choreography. Then Ms. Sorrell placed us in two lines and told us to do what we just saw! Okay, for one thing, nobody told me I needed to study the dancer's movements! Secondly, I was looking at the costumes not the dancers! And the third thing is that they were dancing really fast, so I would've had to really study them!! So unfortunately, we never turned the music on. I was a mess! She really had a hard time with me. But I'm still looking forward to next Monday's rehearsal!

I could do that Spanish dance with my hands behind my back! You know, because I'm a professional!!! Just kidding!!! I think Doug could do it though, with his awesome ribbon dancing skills!!!

You did not do that bad! Only three people including me had been Spanish before not everyone! We didn't do a lot because we only have a half hour. Last year we had and hour for it. Also you were not that bad! I watched you do some of it and you were just as good/bad as everyone else who hadn't done it before! Ms. Pat picks on everyone not just you. Last year I was the worst and got picked on the most trust me you could ask anyone who did it last year with me! So TTYL! Bye!
