Last year Modern Dance classes expanded to three different levels of dance: Beginning, Advanced Dance, and Performance. The girls had several things sched- uled for last year. The first was per- forming at the Christmas assem- blies and they participated in per- formances at KTVK Channel 3. The girls attended a symposium at ASU and they also received guest lessons from former Alhambra dance stu- dents. Teaching techniques were to be taught at a playday that was planned. The main highlight of the girls was a Modern Dance Concert held on April 13, 1973, which was their money making project. The money was used to purchase leotards, cos- tumes and to take a field trip to the Maurice Bejart concert at Grady May. LEFT: BEGINNING DANCE!
