Not technically ballet, but that didn't stop me from watching this 100,000 times and bawling my eyes out.
Gotta love Misty Copeland! God, she's amazing.
Here's PNB's Nutcracker trailer from 2011. Anyone else have Nutcracker on the brain?
Here's a really cool video from the Australian Ballet about pointe shoes!
Can you please tell me which studio you go to, although you may live farther away from me than Santa Claus :p I'd still like to know :) also, any tips on persuading my mum to fork out for lessons for me? I've been obsessed with ballet since the age of 10, now, at 12 and still no breakthrough :( anything welcome, thanks :) x
ReplyDeleteHey! Sorry I didn't respond sooner! I'm not going to say which studio I go to for the sake of my privacy, because once you know where I go it would be really easy to narrow down who I am, and I prefer to stay annoymous. If you'd like, I can send you a private message and tell you more.
DeleteAs for getting your mom to pay, I'd say first find out why she doesn't want to. If the funds aren't available right now, there is not much you can do. If she thinks you're too old, well, just show her the blog! And if she thinks you'll loose interest, try to show her how much you like dancing. Offer to do something in return (ex. I'll mow the lawn every week, or I'll keep my grades above 92%) to show her you're committed.
I hope that helps!
