Madi kicks bootie at THRIVE
SO, we went to this regional dance comp. this weekend and Lil Miss Thing had quite the time...She performed her clog dance solo to The Shake with about 100 contestants in her category...
She got a platinum scoring (highest level), first in her category, third place Grand Champion AND was named "Miss PreTeen Thrive"...
She was also chosen as Most Photogenic and Most Spirited. The last award was given in recognition of her friendliness backstage and in the dressing rooms with other studio members by VERIZON. The award?? OMG a pink blackberry. Of course, the actual PLAN would cost extra so she has a very impressive play phone as of now
A modern piece choreographed re: her surgery journey and how her friends from the dance studio perceive she is treated entitled "If No One Will Listen" also won platinum, first in category and second place Grand Champion and I received a choreography award for the piece (which I quickly recognized as the dancers' journey...NOT my work).
Anywayzzzz, it was great to see her hard work and sheer determination pay off.
For Madi, the kicker was that the event was hosted by BENJI from So You Think You Can Dance fame and she got her pic with him and "hung" with him backstage. (I will post those pics later!)
A long but satisfying weekend!
Did I mention I am soooooooooooooo proud???
