My D is more of an actor/singer. She took dance when younger but in 5th grade started playing volleyball seriously so dance stopped for a while. And although she was a show choir kid and can move really well ( and is a very good tapper) she knew she needed a lot more dance in college. So she’s in an Intermediate Ballet class and also was put in a Jazz/Modern class. Not because she’s a bad dancer but because they felt she really needed to have some aspects of each down pat. Just saw her this weekend and she said she plans to take ballet for 4 years even if she audits classes. Because ballet is a basis for all the rest.

Will she ever be a ballet star? Probably not. But she knows the better dancer she is the more possibilities. After all, they tell these kids they want them to be triple threats.
