Our Cadence has been enjoying taking dance despite covid. She's had times where she has had to have classes over zoom and some interesting, creative year end dance recitals. I've been pleased with how her dance studio has handled the difficulties that come with covid restrictions. She's been having a great time.
Cadence started a Primary Ballet Class in 2019. Classes were in person until March 2020 when covid hit and classes moved to zoom.
That dance year finished in June 2020. Due to covid they recorded each classes final numbers outside behind the studio and gave each parent a CD to watch. They had a backdrop for pictures and gave each dancer a rose.
In September 2020 she started a Jazz/Ballet Class. Classes moved from in studio to online several times throughout the year. Cadence preferred to be in person of course but she was a good sport about it and still had fun.

Since we still couldn't have indoor recitals the year end recital was held outside at the High River Drive In Theatre. The dancers were onstage with the image being displayed on the movie big screen. The parents all parked and either watched from inside our vehicles or on lawn chairs beside our vehicles. It was a great idea! The only downside was it was about the hottest day of the year. We sat outside in the shade for as long as we could. After Cadence danced we had a picnic lunch from the back of the truck and then turned on the air conditioning and sat in the truck until all the dancers had finished.
Looks like she is loving it.
