This has been a week of firsts.
Wesley started his first gymnastics class through the city of Edmonds at the Anderson Center.
And Jillian had her first ballet class at a neighborhood dance studio, Fusion Dance Center.

Both of them are enjoying every minute of it.

For the next 11 weeks this is what Wesley will be doing late in the afternoon on Tuesdays.

Warming up.

Working on flips on the bar.

Using his balance.

Bouncing on the long trampoline.

And getting stamps after his 1 hour class.

Thursdays after lunch for the next 12 weeks will be a lot like this:

Warming up/Stretching

Walking with her arms out and toes pointed.

Leaping across the room.

Getting a sticker at the end.

Showing me how she puts her feet together - the sticker help her know what to do.

The energy in Wesley’s class is very wild/high and the energy in Jillian’s class is very calm and focused.  I think each class is a good match for their personalities.  :)

They can not wait for next week!

    That’s wonderful! It is so important to introduce such activities to kids. They make friends, get their extra energy out and allow them to build their self esteem just to name few benefits…
    Have fun Hunter family!!!
