Little Ballerina

Posted on May 4, 2014May 4, 2014 by Leonas Lines

This poem is based on an adorable little girl I met the other day.
She was about 3 years old and was so proud of her name and of the fact that she could twirl and dance !
Her sweet, joyfulness just made my day!

DANCE Acrostic

Posted on February 27, 2014 by Leonas Lines

This DANCE Acrostic is an original I wrote for the Praise and Worship Dance Team that I am on. It really is our Mission Statement.
We do monthly presentations at Retirement Homes, Churches, and other Events. Our dance is a mix of Jewish Folk Dance, C&W Line Dance, Interpretive Worship Dance, and other sources. Our music is Contemporary Christian with some Old Hymns–but often we do
incorporate some modern Holiday music too. (Just last Christmas I had fun dressing up as Frosty the Snowman and dancing around!)
Our desire is to create a fun atmosphere where we can share the love of God through dance and music. We often use tambourines and worship flags in our presentations also. I invite you to visit our website at: www.eomdt.org for more information and photos.
