Dressed up as their favorite winter characters, they thrilled the large crowd of fans showing off the skills and techniques they learned such as; musicality, tempo, locomotor movements, floor patterns, spatial awareness, shaping, mirroring, traveling, level changes and connecting to the audience through character interpretation.

Thank you for a great Fall Session!
