Dance Advantage - Sparkle and Shine – Digital Video + Audio Download

Sparkle and Shine by Becca Retter

Sparkle and Shine by Becca Retter is a collection of three recital-ready dances for performers ages 3-7, created to put young dancers in the spotlight with cheerful music, age-appropriate choreography, and plenty of personality.

From a bouncy preschool tap number to a versatile ballet-or-tap routine and a theatrical recital opener, Sparkle and Shine gives teachers three distinct performance options that can be used individually or together as part of a bright, upbeat recital theme.

The collection includes choreography video, music, choreography notes, lyrics sheets, and cover art to give teachers an organized set of materials for preparing each routine for the stage.
