This year’s dance show is, April 23rd-25th. Many of the dance classes have been preparing since November or even earlier. The two dance teachers are Mrs. Bardonnex and Mrs. Lapp. Mrs. Bardonnex has intro classes, intermediate, and international and Mrs. Lapp has intro classes, Intermediate, Dance Force, and Hip-hop.

Both teachers prepare all different types of dances. They have been doing shows here for 20 years and they have decided to pull many dances from throughout those 20 years to make up this years dance show. For the dance show they have each class do 1-6 dances. There will be intro dance, Intermediate dance, International dance, Hip-Hop, and Redwood’s Dance Force.

Intro to Dance takes about 2-3 days to complete a dance and they start learning their dances after second semester since they normally have about 1-2 dances.

Intermediate Dance starts around November and take about 2-3 weeks to finish their dances. They only have a total of 2 dances but others have 3. International takes about 2-4 weeks to complete a single dance and they add more and more until they feel it is complete.

They have started preparing since the beginning of the school year to see what works and what doesn’t. They have a total of 3 dances as a class but the boys in international dance are in various other classes.

Hip-Hop only has a total of 3 dances this year, they have been practicing and choreographing these dances since the beginning of the year. It normally takes about an entire class period or two for them to complete a dance which they spend the rest of the time perfecting it.

For our Redwood Dance Force they have a total of 6-7 dances this school year, it takes them up to a few weeks or even a couple of months for them to learn a dance since they only have an hour a day to learn each one. They have been learning every dance since the beginning of the school year taking every moment to perfect them.

Redwoods 20th Dance Show will be showing April 23, 24, and 25.
