Blog-X Dance #1

Kia Ora Blog X dancers! My Name is Iris and I dance with 3 different Dance school, Danzfit, Crossroads, and Feet Beats.
Danzfit it a jazz school in Greymouth and Springfeild. Our teacher is Lisa, Natarsh, and Debbie-Ann. Danzfit is a school which has recently moved to Greymouth after some of the competition squad is from there. Danzfit specialises in Jazz, Lyrical, Contemporary, and Broadway. In Danzfit I have 1 Duo with Mia, one Trio with Mia and Phoenix, 4 Teams, and 4 Solos.
Crossroads is a Ballet, Lyrical, and Contemporary school. I only do the Ballet side. Gaye is my teacher helped by Catherine. In Crossroads I have 2 Solos.
Feet Beats is a new tap school. Our teacher is Calin. I have 1 Duo with Tavis (My brother), 1 Trio with Mia and Phoenix, 1 Team, and 2 Solos.
In all of these schools are Mia Phoenix and I.
I started dancing when I was three, so this is my ninth year. I am a competitive dancer and at the moment I have 5 trophies.
Today I am off to Auckland for a dance convention called Kairos. Kairos is a two day convention where you do Jazz, Lyrical, Urban, Street dance, Ballet, Contemporary, and musical theatre. During the two days you learns little dances and you show them at the end show. There are also auditions that you can do where you can earn scholarships and awards.
