Dance Workshop and June Showcase...Get Excited!!









Thank you to all those who participated in the dance workshop led by Verna Vaughn on Tuesday May 5th!

Thee workshop consisted of some dancing fundamentals, such as proper posture, stance and technique, as well as some inspiring words from professional dancer and choreographer Verna Vaughn herself.

Vera was assisted by another professional dancer Sheena, who led close to 22 girls in an improvised selection which pulled together the technical aspects Verna taught and created a lively performance.
