Working harder than ever.

The dance team is preparing to go to state and they are doing everything they can to be the best of the best. 

The Bullitt East dance team is the closest they have ever been as team. They are using that to their advantage in order to be strong when it comes to performing. Their ultimate goal is state, so they are making sure that their routines are the best they can be.

Seniors Emma Cox and Whitney Fox are the leaders on this years team with their titles of captain. They value their bond and their strengths in order to set an example for the rest of the team. “We have to stay strong with each other because if we start looking weak then everybody else starts looking weak,” said Fox.

An important aspect to the team is that everyone is seen as equal, no one is better than anyone else and everyone contributes to the team. “I don’t think there’s anybody that’s more important. We all play a role individually,” said Cox.

The team has already competed with one routine at regionals. Their placement in this competition set the marker for where they are and where they need to be for state. “We’re gonna have extra practices and be nicer to each other because we were kinda hard on each other telling people that they needed to hit things and it didn’t happen so I think we just need to be a team,” said Fox.

When it comes time for state, the team will perform both pom and hip hop. They want to perfect their hip hop routine that they performed at regionals before they learn their pom routine for state.
