My Lil Ballerina

Waverly recently began ballet classes! 

Mamaw Jean takes Waverly to ballet class every Saturday morning.  Waverly has so much fun learning to be a ballerina!  She is showing much improvement in her steps.  She likes to practice during the week, showing Mommy and Daddy how to stretch and warm up with little muses like the "mouse" and "elephant" (while sitting down and reaching for your toes, walk your fingers out quietly like a mouse, and then pound your hands back toward you for the elephant!).  Her favorite thing to do is the "butterfly", which is where she sits with her feet together and then moves her legs.  She's mastered that technique!



Waverly is doing well taking instructions from her ballet teacher, Ms. Kelsey.  She twirls in with her arms stretched high all the time.  Waverly is also learning to dance in her tap shoes!
