ICON’S ANNUAL HOLIDAY GALA
Friday, November 5, 2010
SOLO PRACTICE HAS BEGUN
I’m so ecstatic to be starting up my solo practices this week!! I have decided to do a lyrical solo dance and a contemporary solo dance. So far, I LOVE what I’ve been taught. Has anyone else started on their solos, duos, or trios? Was it hard picking your song? Tell me about it…
MOMMY AND ME CLASSES AT ICON… MY BROTHER DREW triiiieeeeddd IT!
So Thursday mornings at ICON are even more exciting than usual. They now are running a MOMMY and ME class for ages 2 and up. My little brother, who just turned 3, TRIED it out. My mom said all he wanted to do was dance and look at himself in the mirror. I have to say, he is the youngest of 4, and the only boy, so he is VERY spoiled. Structure and him don’t go together yet… LOL! We are going to give him some more time to learn how to take turns, before he starts his debut as a dancer again. My mom said maybe he’ll try again soon. So if you happen to go and see a really cute boy, whose not really listening to directions, say “HI” to my brother Drew… LOL!!
ICON’S HALLOWEEN PARTY
So ICON had their first ever ADULT Halloween Party this year. They decked out the dance studio with all Halloween decorations. I saw pictures from the party and I just had to post…GEO AND BETH LOOK AWESOME!!!!! Check them out! (can’t wait til I’m 21!) … LOL!
HOPE FOR CHILDREN FOUNDATION… NOVEMBER 19TH, 2010 CHECK OUT “NINE”
I am sooooooo very excited this month to be performing our routine “NINE.” I LOVE LOVE LOVE this dance! It is just so fun and energetic! Every year ICON performs at a fundraiser for the Hope for Children Foundation. This is my first year performing for the fundraiser and I can’t wait! It is a black tie event/benefit, and it is held at the Ocean Place Resort & Spa in Long Branch, NJ. I love doing these performances for special causes. I’m especially excited to be performing our Jazz company routine. I was hoping Nationals wasn’t going to be the last place we would perform it. It was one of my favorites. The whole company (Senior’s, Junior’s, Mini’s, and even the Boys) perform this dance. It’s A LOT of fun! Anyone else agree NINE is one of your favorites?
PROJECT OF HOPE…
IT’S FUN! IT’S EASY! AND IT MEANS SO MUCH!
I, along with GEO and Beth, are working on an amazing project this fall. We are hoping to raise money, awareness, and raise the spirits for the children of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. If you are interested in participating, all you have to do is draw a picture of a dance scene on an 8 1/2 X 11 piece of paper. Write only the words, “ICON OF HOPE” on the paper, and hand into the front desk at ICON Dance Complex, with a $5 donation for the cause. We are going to create a video montage of all the artwork, and present it to the children of St. Jude with our donations. The winner of the contest, chosen by GEO and Beth, will have their drawing used as ICON’s holiday card. I’m sure everyone will love that! The contest ends December 2nd, so please get your drawings in ASAP!!!!!! Also, spread the word to all your friends at school too, anyone can enter!! I can’t wait to see your drawings! You can find out more information at www.icondancecomplex.com or feel free to ask me any questions right here on my blog.
I Heard You Say, "Hey, Hey!"
October 23rd was a great day! The weather was unusually beautiful, and could not be more perfect for a football game. ICONic was asked to dance during the halftime show for Kean University’s Homecoming game. Before the game we got to see all the fraternities and sororities hanging out, and college looked soooooo fun! Kean gave us really neat T-shirts to wear for the performance and they matched perfectly with our traditional “ICON blue.” After our performance, several of the people in the stands were giving us high-fives, and clapping. My mom said she heard someone in the crowd say, “WOW! Those kids can dance!” I think the performance went well! Great weather, great football, and great dancing… I think EVERYONE enjoyed the day!
Was anyone at the game that day? I would love to do that again… hmmm… what other college would you like ICONic to perform at?...any ideas?
By the way, check out the picture of the cool Kean scoreboard… constructed by our very own, Elizabeth Barry’s dad!!... GO JIM BARRY!
