Catherine, the ballet dancer

I've been trying desperately to find a gymnastics class for Catherine. But, all my locals friends tell me that they are non-existent. I feel like what she needs is a giant padded room she can run and jump and flip and play and tumble in for a few hours a week.

I was successful in finding one place, but it's about three times what a class in the US would cost and it's at the complete opposite side of town which makes it not worth it.

But, we found out there's a Russian dance teacher who teaches at a studio in the same building as our office! It's very affordable, but the times don't work well. Also, Catherine doesn't have much experience with any kind of classroom setting so "do what the other kinds are doing" is somewhat of a new concept. Also, I personally don't feel like her personality (or movements) are very well-suited to graceful, smooth ballet, but she was willing to give it a try and they let us try a class for free.

You can see how that went below:
