Ballet Lessons!

There was a ballet lessons promotion from Kinderdance, so we decided to sign Jolie up for it. She always loved to dance! Besides, the lessons would be conducted at the Temasek Club, so we can relax at the clubhouse during her class! Cool! So one weekend we bought Jo a whole set of ballet outfit from Costumes Connection. The lady there was very knowledgeable and professional. I like. :)

There was a Caucasian mum there with her teenager daughters, shopping for ballet clothes. They were definitely more pro, trying on the real ballet shoes and testing it by doing tiptoes. Jo was mesmerised by all the jie-jies! When Jo tried on the whole outfit, I wanted to cry. She's grown into such a pretty little girl! One moment she's in my arms, fragile as a flower, next moment she's in a ballet outfit, so pretty and shy. She was beaming in delight at her new clothes and I know that she's gonna love her lessons.

On the actual day, we had a real fun time watching her. As usual, she was living in her own world. She would dance and jump around, not listening to most of the instructions, which was quite amusing. But seriously, I don't think the two teachers have much experience teaching young toddlers. They are so young, soft spoken and I feel like they don't know how to engage the children. Most of the time the children were not even listening to them. So I would have the strong urge to jump in and take over the lesson. Haha...

But most importantly, Jolie had a great time there, and would look forward to going to class. So even though we would not continue another session after this ends, I think it's money well spent if she's enjoying it.
