We are Andrea and Liv, and we are 11 years old. We enjoy dancing a lot. Dance lesson, we practice once a week it cost: 150 euro for half a year.
We are running around in the room. Sometimes we also turn around in pirouettes and make some jumps.
Afterwards we stretch out. We stretch our arms into the air and move our legs.

We are starting the dance lesson by walking the dance slowly and also the new moves. After the practice we begin to dance. The dance is pretty cool and we’re looking pretty cool too.

Here is a girl named Lærke. She is on the bar.
She is a very good gymnast.
 
When you are on the bar, you must have some special kind of chalk on your hands.

Here I am. I'm on the floor. It's a spring floor, not a plain floor.
Here we make various projections!

Here I am again! I'm on my way to jump over the horse! It is a sort of plinth.

This is me on the bar! I stand on his hands! It is very fun to go to the gym, I think in every accrue. To become a really good gymnast, you must be: flexible, a quick learner, brave and strong!
