Yesterday was Katrina's second ballet/tap dance class. About eight little girls in pink leotards. Parents could watch the action on a closed-circuit televison outside the classroom, pictures but no sound. I watched on and off for the half-hour lesson, so I knew that the teacher had taught them a few ballet positions.
Later that afternoon, Katrina wanted to play dance class. She was the teacher, of course, and I was supposed to do what she did.
So what did Katrina the dance teacher do? Dance a few Katrina-invented steps, or twirl, then clap sharply two times and say "Listen!" in a stern voice. Step, step, clap, clap, "Listen!"
That's what my daughter learned in dance class yesterday. I'm so proud.

Hi, Shannon,
Great to hear from you! There are dance classes on the Ramstein Air Base (if you're a DoD card holder, that is). Go to http://www.cmiregistration.com/user/splash__org__151.htm
to see the youth programs on Ramstein and Vogelweh. Many of the classes fill up almost immediately, so you may have to get on a wait list.
There is also a dance studio in Ramstein-Miesenbach called Fairy Tale (or Faery? I'm not sure) Dance Studio. I believe the owner is American.
There is also an Irish dance school in the area that holds classes both on and off base.
Hope this helps. Welcome to Germany!
Jennifer
