Glowsticking

This is a little out of order, we had such a busy weekend that I have several posts to share. But since it was the last thing we did it is the most fresh and fun so I'll share it first. Tonight we had an outreach for our church. It was small, but we got a chance to really meet the new neighbor and his wife and mother in law. They are really sweet. Then we also got to hang out with one of the teenagers who lives across the street. Danya just loves him. She thinks he is the coolest. So he and his friend asked if they could show us their dancing. We agreed and were treated to a light show. This is them dancing. The short glowsticker on the left is Danya getting into the action and wanting to use the brightest glowsticks.

*According to Wikipedia "Freehand (glowsticking)is defined by the steadily growing body of concepts and moves. Some of these concepts include tracing, taps, throwing, as well as interdisciplinary dance skills borrowed from common funk style categories. Freehand glowsticking typically borrows from many other dance styles such as liquid dancing as well as having its own unique set of moves.
Traces are the act of dragging the glowsticks over one's body. An example of a common trace is the stomach trace, which includes dragging the glow sticks over one's stomach to create a circular pattern.
Another example of a basic movement frequently used in freehand glowsticking is the figure eight-- quite possibly the most well known, albeit not the most common move in the intermediate and more advanced levels"
