BYU's Luau practice

This week was my first practice for BYU's Luau.  I signed up to be in the Tahiti and Hawaii sections; however, after the 6am Tahiti practice, I decided just to stick to one section.  My legs were so sore after the Tahiti practice, that I couldn't find the energy to wake up for the 8am practice for Hawaii on Saturday morning.  Tahitian dancing is my favorite, so I feel good about staying with that.  I am not a morning person, but I only have the 6am practice once a week and it will be worth it.  I love BYU's Luau and it is so exciting to perform.  I performed in the luau a few years ago and loved it.  I also performed in BYU's Fiesta, the Latin dance performance, but I prefer the Polynesian show.  I think Polynesian culture is so exotic and enchanting. 

Dance practice is really demanding with all the leg and arm movement going on!  I had to do "duck walks" (when you basically dance in a squatting position for an extended period).  My legs are still sore!  It has been a while since I've used these muscles.  It is the good kind of sore though and I'm excited to get toned up for the big show in March!
