The Gardner Edgerton High School Blazerettes Dance Team welcomes you to their home on the Web. Visit the site often for news and announcements about upcoming events and other important information.
We know it is fun in the sun summer time! But we want you all to know how proud we are of your commitment and dedication to this team! All that you are doing right now will pay off in your season! We are growing closer as a family, you are improving technique and you’re learning routines that will take off stress once school starts!
Raise the bar of expectations for yourself this summer so we can soar as a team this year!
No matter what – BELIEVE
Always remember this:
*“Your purpose in life isn’t to arrive at a destination
where you find inspiration, just as the purpose of dancing isn’t to end
up at a particular spot on the floor. The purpose of dancing and of
life is to enjoy every moment and every step, regardless of where you
are when the music ends!!!”*
