The lyrical composition was a very technical piece. Coach Frausto says that the Equestriettes always strive to challenge themselves. "We're always pushing our technique. We're always pushing our abilities and trying to, in a sense, create new tricks and try to strengthen the technique and I think that's consistent with every year."

Indopak and KREW feature in the showcase as well. Equestriettes Coach, Morgan Locke, invited the groups to display other varieties of dance in the diverse HHS community. "There's more dance here than just the Equestriettes," Locke said. "We'd like to also give a space for these groups to participate and show off what they work so hard doing as well."

The Equestriettes' brought back memories by performing their winter rally dance. Captain, senior Jodi Yu recalls practicing these routines leading up to the show. "It was a lot of fun, but it was also a lot of work," Yu said. "We had to practice all of our routines sort of back to back, so we definitely had to try to get our stamina up to prepare. But being able to perform in front of our family and friends definitely made it a very rewarding experience."

Throughout the season, the Equestriettes have worked on teambuilding and bonding, which in turn helps them dance in sync. Dancer, sophomore Nina Huang said her favorite part about being on the team has been the people. "I made a lot of new friends here and we all have a special bond, and there's no drama," Huang said.

"I think it's awesome to finally see a full gym where they can show off everything that they've worked on throughout the whole season." Coach Morgan Locke said. "It's nice for their extended family, friends as well as our student body to be able to see how hard they've been working all year. Not just what you see at rallies in football, but everything additional that comes with being a part of the team."
