Note From the Author, Melanie Salas
As a dance mom of 15 years, I’ve spent countless hours backstage, steaming costumes, perfecting buns, and applying lashes at the crack of dawn. The excitement, the nerves, the joy—there’s nothing quite like a competition weekend. I wrote 'Twas the Night Before Dance Competition to celebrate those magical, hectic moments that every dance mom knows all too well. It’s a tribute to the hard work, the love, and the sparkle we pour into our dancers. Whether you’re a dancer or a dance mom, I hope this book brings a smile to your face and a little extra sparkle to your day.
Wishing you all the best, both on and off the stage! -Melanie
