GA Hmong New Year, Dress reharsing
Posted on 27 October 2008
The little girls practicing their dances.
The Georgia Hmong New Year is just around the corner and the girls are practicing hard. I had went to watch their dress rehearsal and they are doing great, well except for here and there, but I know that when New Year arrives these girls will do great. As always I know these girls are going to be so adorable on stage. I haven’t been to any but two of their practices and I am glad I was able to find the time to go to their practices on Sunday.
The little girls are going to be doing two dances and then the bigger girls are also doing two dances, then my aunt had also have a group with the older girls and collaborate two other girls from the smaller group and form a dance with this little collaboration.
I have seen these little girls improve from knowing nothing to knowing a great deal of moves, and they only ranges from age 5 to 13. I think the oldest for the little group is 7 while everyone else is 5 and 6 as for the older girls, the youngest is 11 and the oldest is 13 (that is if I got all their ages right). One thing I’ve learn from watching them yesterday is that, DO NOT ARGUE WITH THESE LITTLE GIRLS ABOUT DANCING TRADTIONAL HMONG BECAUSE THEY KNOW MORE THAN I DO. Ahahaha, really, really.
I can’t wait to see them dance on stage. All their outfits has been picked out and made and it is looking good. One of my aunt is always the person who make their outfits an she had always done such a great job with it, but it is such a sad event this year knowing that our aunt who had always made their outfit is no longer with us, thus we have to find someone else to make these outfits. As a tribute to her, the girls are going to wear one of their outfits made for last year.
