Just stretch..
Stretching is fundamental for dancing, not only because this prevents possible injuries, but also because many ballet steps requires this for making them better. If you are not flexible, don´t worry! it just takes ten minutes of your day for three weeks for reaching your goal by doing these every day!





Some day, if you keep practising, you could be like this!:
my thoughts every class.
| ME: | Ugh I should've packed water. |
|---|---|
| ME: | What time is it? |
| ME: | Plié, relevé, plié... |
| ME: | Turn out your freaking LEGS. |
| ME: | Nope, scratch that. Turn out your body. |
| ME: | Is today rehearsal? |
| ME: | NOOOOOO I DON'T WANT TO PUT ON MY POINTE SHOES. |
| ME: | One more sousou and I will scratch my metatarsals out. |
| ME: | I should be a doctor someday. |
| ME: | Was she trained in Russia? |
| ME: | I must look like a whale. |
| ME: | Dat arch!! |
| ME: | OKAY, okay. I get it, TEACHER. I should REMEMBER THE COMBINATION next time!! |
| ME: | Why are my pointe shoes wet? |
| ME: | I need to pee. |
| ME: | I don't remember the combination, better follow the Russian one in front! |
| ME: | Is that my toe? |
| ME: | How does she keep her feet so pain free and beautiful? |
| ME: | I love this combination! |
| ME: | ADAGIO? Seriously? |
| ME: | *slips* |
| ME: | AHHH better get up and pretend no one saw that... |
| ME: | All I did was fall! Stop looking at me like that!!! |
| ME: | Plié, sousou, relevé? Or plié, sousou, sauté? Better copy the Russian one again!! |
| ME: | THIRSTYYYY |
| ME: | I'm going to bang someone over the head with my pointe shoe. |
| ME: | I'm dead serious. |
| ME: | |
| ME: | |
| ME: | what freaking time is it |
Every single effort is worth it, and nobody is perfect (except Russians) everybody has a different way of learning and a different body, it doesnt matter if you can´t make some things, but remember.. everyone once was a begginer, so.. don´t freak out!
...Ballerinas will understand
Ballet, it isn't considered a sport, it's an art but for us, is more than that, it´s a way of life, most people say: well... it´s just dancing. but they are wrong, this is only the beginning; because it take a lot of effort, energy and training to just make a simple combination, and you have to look beautifull and flawless all the time. Doing this makes us happy, regardless of the pain
