DDA Dancers Wow the Crowd at the Harlem Globetrotters!!

Our dancers performed at the evening game of the Harlem Globetrotters!  The dancers performed their Mickey Production "Mickey’s in the House" routine that was choreographed for their trip to Orlando, Florida last October.  The dancers were the halftime entertainment show at the Sprint Center and then had the opportunity to be the "Honorary Cheerleaders" for the Globetrotters and sit with the team.  It was a great night!

PostHeaderIcon Disney Trip October 2009

WOW!  Congratulations to our fabulous Disney Dancers!!  We had a great trip and an outstanding performance.  Our dancers were treated to a great week at Disney World at the end of October.  The dancers were able to take part in a private Disney Dancin’ Workshop hosted by one of the Disney choreographers.  They learned several routines that are being performed in the Disney parks…lots of fun!  And the workshop ended with a fun opportunity to dance with Goofy!!  Our performance at Downtown Disney was also great – our dancers performed in a 25 minute show and ended with a fun Mickey Production.  We received lots of compliments and a standing ovation from the audience.  Thanks to Miss Melissa, Miss Kate, Miss Nadine, and Miss Denise for chaperoning the trip.  Our dancers represented the state of Kansas very well!  We will be posting pictures soon…so check back!

PostHeaderIcon Master Class with Don Mirault!

 WOW!  What an incredible Master Class we had over the weekend!  We were so fortunate to fly Don Mirault in from Las Vegas to work with our dancers at DDA.  The girls worked so hard and learned some fun pieces in so many different dance styles.  Our girls were even treated to a fun tribute routine to Michael Jackson….they had fun with that one!  I know the parents had a good time in the Parent Seminar, too - and Don was able to answer many of their questions about competitions, scoring, etc.  Overall, it was a terrific kick-off to our Fall dance season!  Thanks to all of the dancers who participated and the parents who made it all possible.  We also want to thank Don for his time and talent – he is awesome!!!
