Start Your Day Off Right

One very important thing every dancer needs, is a good breakfast. A good breakfast keeps you moving all day long.

Normally, if you thought of healthy breakfast, you might think of eggs, or a smoothie, or some whole-grain toast. But there is one thing, that tastes like heaven, and is really good for you. Do you know what it is?

GRANOLA!
