Day 3

Today was Day 3 of ArtSummer and we couldn't be more excited about all the hard work we've been doing! We started our day off with our daily cardio warm-up and stretches, and then moved on to decorating our quote of the day. 

Our choreographer of the day was the Emmy-award winning husband and wife choreography team Tabitha and Napoleon D'umo. The team is most commonly called "Nappy-Tabs" and has been one of America's favorite hip-hop choreography teams for several years.  Nappy-Tabs has choreographed dances on several hit shows including, "So You Think You Can Dance" and "America's Best Dance Crew". The duo is known for their signature lyrical-hip-hop style that is set to Pop, R&B, and Rap music. 

We continued working on our jazz dance for the Finale performance and our collaboration piece that will also be showcased in the end show.

We are so excited for our field trip to Winthrop University tomorrow! You can find more information about the trip on the Winthrop University Field Trip page, as well as in the paragraph below. 

Letter from the ArtSummer director Ms. Brown:

Tomorrow June 11th, the ArtSummer students will be traveling to Winthrop University in Rock Hill, SC.  We will be departing HMS at 7:30AM and returning by 6PM.  If your child is a car rider, they need to arrive at HMS by 7AM. If your child is a bus rider, they should report to their pick-up location by 6:15AM. Lunch and drinks will be provided for the trip; however, your child will be responsible for additional snacks. Please make sure your child's snacks are placed in a closed/sealed container or paper bag with their name on it. Students are required to wear their yellow ArtSummer shirts, which they received today. It is suggested that students wear comfortable shoes since we will be doing a lot of walking on campus. 

I have asked the girls to bring a bag with their jazz shoes and a change of pants/shorts that they can dance in so they can participate in the dance class that will be given by a Winthrop University professor.
