Dance- Monday- 2nd period
"Morning, guys," Kitty greeted the class when they got to the Danger Shop. "We're going to get started right away, so everyone find a spot where you have some room, because we're going to work on last week's stretches while I tell you guys what we're going to be doing today."
She did the stretches along with them, because it was the second week and they might've forgotten, explaining, "Today we're doing ballet, my personal favorite, and probably the one people think of first when they think 'dance'. It's storytelling. A ballet is like a play or an opera without any words. You're just selling the story with your body and movements. There's a big focus on grace and flexibility, and seeing a whole dance put together is just gorgeous, and a lot of fun to do, even if it's tough. We're just going to be doing the basics today, and learning a short routine that hopefully you'll all be great at by the end of class. And if we're all feeling limber enough now, stand on up and we'll get started on learning foot positions."

Re: Routine
The grin was mostly because the arm gestures made him think of Canadian children's programming that used to play in reruns while he was growing up.
He was going to have Skinnamarink stuck in his head for days.
