[quote=Anonymous]Thanks PPs. That's helpful. I think contemporary might be suitable then. I think she's fully capable of doing more but we have so many other extracurriculars. That's why I've sent her to dance camps where she can learn a lot in a concentrated way. And honestly I am wary of the way the dance kids are so obsessed with their body shapes even at this age. DD comes home talking about how she wants to have hyperextension, be double jointed, have smaller thighs, flatter belly etc. The slightly older kids (still tweens) are obsessed with going on pointe. I feel like focusing so much on things you can't really change can't be healthy.[/quote]
