The Decision to Change Dance Studios

Micah and Jewelia were having a lot of fun at their dance studio, but when the year was over and the new schedule came out for the following year, it just wasn't workable. Too many days, classes spaced too far apart. We didn't want to live in the van in between classes, and we didn't want to drive back and forth.

Plus, it seemed as if Micah wasn't advancing too much in his ballet class any more. Did this studio really know how to work with boys?

So, we began the search for another dance studio.

We came across another studio just up the street. We checked it out and found that not only did they have some other boys who danced there, but they even had men teachers! Their schedule seemed to work great. It had Micah's level class at the same time as a class for Jewelia, and so we were sold! We had Micah come and try out some of the classes and he was ready to go.

For the first time, Micah would be in ballet class with 2 other boys! He was still the only boy in tap, but he didn't really care. Jewelia decided to take only ballet, claiming her feet hurt when she tapped. She would take a class with girls 5-8 years old.
