Ella's Tap

Ella has been in tap for the past 6 week at Wishes Dance studio. To say she has loved it is an understatement. She loves the tap shoes, picking out her skirt (shocker!) and her teacher. Miss Michelle has SO much energy and is such a good tapper.

Although we don't let Ella walk outside with her tap shoes, she has loved tapping on the wood floors in Laney's room. It sounds like elephants stomping but she sure does love it.

I took a ton of pictures and even though I used the "running man" setting most pictures are blurry. Maybe the blurriness is because Ella dances so fast??

Can I get a holla?
Doesn't it look like both feet are off the ground?
Not sure if they are but I am sticking with the story that both feet are in the air.

I had to include this picture so you can see Miss Michelle.
She is ripped!

Miss Michelle said that although she loved the canes, neither Ella or Emma really cared about using them. In fact, in the middle of the number Matthew went up and took Ella's. Matthew liked the cane but Ella was fine without it. Thank goodness or else Matthew would have cried and cried and cried!

Since there are only two girls in the class, Miss Michelle let Matthew and Laney participate in whatever they wanted to. She mentioned ribbon and both of them were ready to go!

They all worked on shuffle kicks.

I love all of the in action shots!
Way to go, Ella...we are so glad you liked tap!!
