Ballet Lessons


A while back I posted about Ella taking ballet lessons. We'd originally got her signed up through the city - a class that lasted only 4 weeeks. My friend, Pamela recommended a class by Miss Peggy, a teacher that their daughter has learned from for the past few years. We got Ella signed up for a 6 week stint in Miss Peggy's class, and we've all loved it! This past Tuesday was the last class, and parents were allowed to watch (and take pictures!). I got a bunch of good ones, including this priceless video of Ella skipping. It's a new skill that she is very proud of. I am very proud of it too, she's worked very hard! I feel pride and joy when watching her skip....and I also die laughing. I feel terrible, but the high knees and she's still REALLY slow. But so cute!

Ella and her bud, Eliana. Eliana has taken class with Miss Peggy for a few years now,
and she was nice enough to share her with us! :) Thanks!
