I enjoyed watching each age groups’ routines and seeing the
girls grow up each year. This year also introduced a front facing audience.
Although last year’s club competition had the audience to the front, they were
seated well above eye level. With the audience in direct sight this year, it
took a few moments to settle and focus at times. Little did I know that this
was preparation for the following week’s zone competition also with an audience
at the front. The club event had the annual men’s marching challenge where male
friends and family participated in a round of marching. Their siblings, partners
or family members made great instructors, teaching their men how to have nice
pointed feet and stride to the music. This year I also had a go at the BjPop which is the association's leisure dance for all ages. Since the ladies had not learnt the choreography in class, a few of us stood in the back row and followed along. It was amusing and in a few moments we'd struck our end poses.
The annual march past where all girls and ladies wore a sash
displaying the medals received during their physie careers was held during this
day. My sash was embellished with eleven shiny medals and I would earn one more
the following weekend with my novice team. As usual, I had labelled my medals with a sticker at the back. Afterwards, the club photo was taken. The evening
ended with awards presented to age champions, best performances, marching
champions and the overall club champion. Congratulations to all the girls and
ladies who danced on the day.
