Faubourg 2013: Day 3

Faubourg Day 3: 2.5 hours Fayeth, 3.5 hours Hannah and 7.5 hours Gabe and Lindsay. This morning brought more stretching, but today it has been out of necessity not just for fun. It also brought the need for more Epsom Salt for muscle aches and more ice/ice packs for achey and swollen feet. (I have already gone through 20# ice). The humidity and amount of dancing they have been doing has resulted in swollen feet. Today a teacher was speaking to a few of us parents at drop off and she informed us that the worst is yet to come. She says Saturday will be the worst and it will get better from there. Faubourg is a technique based school. So technique is what they get. Lindsay and Gabe are averaging 4 ballet classes a day 5 days a week and 2 on Saturday. 4 days a week they get 1 hour of another discipline of dance (modern, hip hop or jazz). The kids are loving EVERY.MINUTE! The are so excited to go every morning (and wake up before the alarm) and they are so sad when it is time to leave. They would stay and dance more. What a great experience this has been! This evening the kids decided to spend the evening reading on their kindle and taking it easy. Muscles Ache and Feet Hurt, but Lindsay says..."No Pain No Gain!"
