Jet Glue: For when you need your pointe shoes to last one more show

Chinese Acrobatic Swan Lake

                                               How is she doing this?!?!?!

Aria Alekzander: Houston Ballet

I love when she is sitting in the splits with her toes pointed, flexing and relaxing her calves. I have totally done that! I also like how she is such a good jumper and turner. Some times it seems that only male dancers do fancy jumps and turns and ballerinas do more developpes. I'm better at jumping and turning so I like watching ballerinas doing that kind of stuff.

Even MORE Little Dance Things!

I know I've already posted twice about Little Dance Things but I've found even more been-there-done-that smile worthy quotes. To get the whole scoop check out littledancethings.tumblr.com, then tell me what ones you like best.

Rhythmic Gymnastics: I Wan't to be This Flexible!

When I showed my friend this video she said "If I ever see you doing that I will scream!" This video has definitely inspired me to stretch more at home...a lot more!

More Little Dance Things...

I know some of these are hard to see but they are so so true! Try looking them up on google, there are thousands of them! Click on the picture for a better look.

Fall Ballet Session

Hey guys, long time no write! Summer ballet is done and I've already been on 2 camping trips. I can't wait for fall ballet to start. I'm now in level 5 and will be starting home school so I can take extra morning classes. I'm sooo exited but also a little nervous...OK more than a little! I worried about leaving my school friends but I know I'll be able to still see them and I have lots of friends at church and at the dance studio. In the morning classes we will be really focusing on fixing my flaws which will help me improve so much though it will be hard at times. I guess I'll do anything for dance!
