DOAD #14: NUVO Nuggets

from Dad of a Dancer Hosted by Brian Johnson

Hey dance friends! This past weekend my son went to the NUVO convention as an independent, and had a wonderful time. Next week I’ll have him share some thoughts from a dancer’s perspective, but this week I want to share a few experiences from a parent POV: * Challenges applying for dance conventions/competitions as an independent * The uncomfortable feeling of dropping him off in an environment where he didn’t know anybody * Assuring him we didn’t care if he came home from the weekend with all of the awards or zero awards * Finally getting recognition for all his hard work! Also coming up in future DOAD episodes: my son will share his experiences from the National High School Dance Festival in Washington, which he’s at right now as I type this. This is a public episode.
