MAG Hiring a dance coach for son?

[DTAG]

Has anyone went outside of their gym and hired a dance coach for their son? My son lacks grace, and when he does his floor routine bless his heart, it’s like a rock out there. Things like sissones and hitch kicks are difficult for him. So, was thinking of him taking some private dance lessons as some of those same skills are similar. Has anyone done this? Thanks for any advice.

You could have a dance teacher work with him specifically on his floor routine to make it more fluid.

You could also talk to a girls' coach at the gym. Several of our boys worked with some of the girls' coaches when the leaps, etc first came into the program. It helped a lot!

I remember them all looking like a bunch of water buffaloes doing their kick, turn, to arabesque. I just helped my son at home, because it was easy. After this routine, there really aren’t any more dance things.
