You don't have to wear after.

This is just a quick note to tell you about the Choreographies we will focus on this year and to share the ways in which I will teach them (in Weekly Classes and in Troupe Classes/Rehearsals). If this does not make sense to you, don't worry about it. It will, once you become familiar with the combos and parts. It will also help you see what each class will focus on.
