West Side Story

West Side Story is an amazing musical produced a while ago that is still being talked about today. Many people have wrote books and articles (including my mom!) About one particular person; Jerome Robbins. Who is he? The directer of West Side Story. It doesn't sound like a very big deal, but he is very famous for his works.
Why do people love West Side Story?

• It includes many problems we face. It is basically gang violence and the different sides people take. It is also a migration story about Puerto Ricans who move to the city.

Below I have included one of my favorite dances for the musical! Hope you enjoy!!

In dance class!!

Right now in dance class we are working on an amazing dance called "I See Fire." It is a great dance including many interesting elements that we learned in our dance unit. We are performing it at the winter arts festival along with all the other dance classes!! We are also starting our new unit this week. This unit is Jazz dance. I am really looked forward to it because other than last year in dance, I have never really danced Jazz before!! I have attached a clip below of a weird Jazz dance for people who don't really know what it is. Hope you enjoy!!


This is a group dance on the TV show 'Dance Moms.' The style is Jazz funk:
