Daya's Alvin Ailey intensive is over.
She did 4 performances over Wednesday and Thursday.
It was just wonderful-- extremely professional. The highest age in the Junior Division is 16, but every single person there danced like a professional. The skill level and choreography were superb.
Here is Daya after her Wednesday evening performance:
The last day, Friday, was class observation day.
I don't really get to see Daya's classes anymore. I haven't seen one of her ballet classes for a long time.
The stuff they were doing.... was intense. Very focused, very controlled, extremely difficult.
I think dancers at this level all have to be crazy as a prerequisite.

What a wonderful experience. I am so glad she got to do it. Good for you Mommma.
