Dancer of the Month

  Our Dancer of the Month for December is in her third year of dance and working so hard.  Evangeline “Eva” Sutherlin is enrolled in ballet and tap.  She is improving so rapidly in both disciplines.  In ballet Eva is reciting movement vocabulary regularly.  At the barre she reinforces all of the barre etiquette and rules which apply in ballet technique.  Her great growth in her class focus is seen both at the barre and center floor.  She is able to maintain what is expected technically while moving with such joy for her art form.  Not only all of this, but Miss Sutherlin has a cheerful and positive attitude.  One of her strongest accomplishments in ballet is her beautiful tendu.  Currently, she will be starting her role as The Caterpillar in ALICE IN WONDERLAND.  In Tap Eva is a ray of sunshine working hard on shuffles, shuffle hop toe, shuffle ball change, and her newest one –Irish Step.  She loves Flash Trick Step and Boogie Woogies.  She is able to retain what she learns and even has memorized The Little Chickadees song at the end of class. Eva is a tremendous joy to have in class.
