Himani starts tumble class

2 weeks ago Himani started a tumble class. I had taken the twins there a couple times and it is at the same studio I use to dance at as a little kid. But now its no longer Dixie Bell, but Tumblebuggs. Its oober cute.

The class starts off by sitting in a circle and warming up. Some things Himani can do/attempt. Some things she just doesnt even try and just watches the grown ups.

Next we have different stations. First 1 is the balance beam. HImani LOOOOOVVVEEESSSSS this. I havent been able to get a picture of her on it because we are suppose to help them across. After you go across the 3 balance beams 3 times we have free time. The whole free time is Himani going across those three balance beams. Then we have another station. It has something to do with a bar that they are suppose to hold themselves up and pull their feet to the bar as well. The first week she kind of got the idea, she was able to hold herself up and walk her feet up the mat but the second week she got it and was able to hold herself up and keep her feet on the bar for 3 seconds by herself. I kind of got some pictures of that but I never clicked the camera on time and that is on Lina and Ryan's camera. I am sure they will post them.

Then the teacher plays the "Freeze Song" Himani didn't get it the first week. When the song says freeze, you freeze. But she kept running around the circle. The second time she listened and actually froze.

At the end after we get our shoes on the kids get stamps all over. After the first class Himani got two on each hand thats all she looked at on the way home. They amazes her. I think that was her first time getting a stamp.

The teacher said Himani is doing good. She isnt behind the other (2) kids in the class at all and listens well. She said she was worried she would be shy and not want to try some of the things at first. But HImani wasn't shy at all went up to the other adults showing them her shoes and everything. Himani is very sad when we have to leave. I noticed the other day when we got home she tried to dangle from the oven handle. Uh-Oh!
