Students in all ELAPA Dance Classes and after-school dance programs performed May 21 in the 2015 Spring ​Dance Concert which was titled "Livin' in the 90s!"  

  All of the songs used in the show had to be from the years 1990-1999.  Ms. Weber taught dances to all of the school day classes and chose a few top students as soloists.

 Some of the songs included were "Achy Breaky Heart," "California Love," "Bitter Sweet Symphony," "The Macarena," and "Livin' La Vida Loca."   The ELAPA Dance Company learned two large dances, "Gangsters Mix," choreographed Ms. Weber; and "Voogue," choreographed by Ms. Alli Gray.  Those students also had the opportunity to contribute their ownchoreography in two additional dances:  "Mambo #5," and "Balle Esta Cumbia."  The Torres Cheerleaders, coached by Mr. Gus Rodriguez, displayed their exceptional stunts in a thrilling 1990s mix of songs. 


  The after-school ballet class also performed  gracefully to music from the movie the Titanic.  The Torres Dance Team worked with their coaches Ms. Alli Gray and Mr. Alex Almaraz on amazing 1990s style hip hop mix which included "Poison" and "Tootsie Roll." 

 

 In the final moments the 9th grade joined the others onstage to dance to the song "It Takes Two."   The entire performance was a great success with exceptional dancing and beautiful lighting that was designed by ELAPA stage crew students under the direction of Mr. Daniel Guzman.
