SOs! If you think your private conversations with parents will remain confidential… you’re wrong. Everyone talks and mothers revel in telling other mothers how beloved their precious child is. You cause animosity and your own chaos sometimes.
My kid’s solo is announced and they are walking on stage. Guy directly in front of me- his phone rings- and he ANSWERS!! Talks through half the dance and he isn’t quiet. Am I allowed to kick him in the back of the head?
No food or drinks allowed inside venue. Hope y’all like hangry teens. Mine is terrifying. I’m sneaking in a granola bar.
Hey beautiful ballerina 👋 Your cropped tights look dreadful. Full foot or nothing!! Happy to be back!
When you watch an awards session and have to stop yourself from laughing like you’re watching a live comedy show… priceless. What a joke.
Love when the dedicated kids get pushed to the back when a kid who decides to grace us with their presence shows up. Hey slacker, welcome back! Front and center! 🙄
Ok, it’s impressive that you can do 5 leg hold turns... but your technique is crap. Can we please focus on technique over flash???
If a dance mom watches a dance competition from her own kitchen and nobody is around to hear her snark... does it even count?
New year, new me! Kidding. Same me (sorry) with hopefully a lot more fun and snark to write about this year. Happy 2021! Fingers crossed we all get an amazing season to bitch about 🤞😜
All I want for Christmas is for my kids to dance. I will even try not to complain as much.... I said try!!
Hey struggling S/Os, you may want to worry about maintaining relationships with the families who bend over backwards to help you instead of catering to those who are only in it for themselves and who aren’t going to miraculously start paying because they know you need help. 🤷🏻♀️
Can someone tell me what happens when the uber favourites leave the studio? Do new uber favourites emerge? Do they carry on like nothing happened and still put everyone else in the back? Do they just go ahead and shut down the studio? This will be interesting 😑🧐
It’s interesting to see the kids who didn’t bother putting in the effort to stretch, take online classes or stay in shape during lock down feel that they deserve to be given the same or better placements for next season. Umm no.
Side note: If everyone has to wear a mask to a competition, it’s too soon to compete and it isn’t safe. Why does this need to be said?!
When I say that we have a dance family, I mean we have a DANCE FAMILY. We eat, sleep and breath dance. We plan and prioritize dance around vacations, work, school, doctors appointments, family gatherings... you name it, we allowed dance to come first. Ctd...
