|
|
I started taking dance lessons at age three, but had to stop after ten years for various financial and health-related reasons.
Finally, after four years I'm going back!
I signed up for ballet, jazz, and modern. My favorite being modern.
I was just going to take that, but I just couldn't go without the other two either...
Ballet and jazz start in two weeks. My modern class won't start until September though.
I'm a bit nervous though.
I've been stretching and working out a lot lately, hoping to rebuild my strength and improve my flexibility (which is AWFUL!), and I'm afraid that I will be very much behind the rest of the dancers.
I was just wondering if anyone had any tips for me.
Both dance tips and maybe some ways to help calm my nerves (eh...) |

I got an email last night and ballet and jazz now start tomorrow!
I'm soooo excited. But really really scared :?
I got all my stuff yesterday.
New leotard, tights, and shoes, since my old ones don't fit me anymore.
They're pretty. I love them.
Wish me luck! :D |

It was great!
Hardly anyone was there because it's the summertime but yeah.
I was really nervous cause I thought I'd be awful, but it turns out that I remember a lot of stuff.
And I'm a whole lot more flexible than some of the people who were there, which is great cause I was extremely worried about that.
But yeah.
I can't wait until next week! :D |

Just curious. Did the classes work out for you? Are you still taking classes? For health reasons I stop taking classes myself. That doesn't stop me from dancing at home with my children though.
Let's chat, I'm curious :) |
