I'm not FAT, but I am NOT skinny. I'm on the swim team, so I'm quite muscular. Before I start ballet (after exams this March) I want to lose a little weight. I've seen pictures of ballerinas in movies and magazines, and they're really thin. I want to make sure that I start ballet with the right body, so does anyone have any healthy diets that I can go on before I start? or maybe some excersizes to burn the fat on my stomach? I want to have one of those flat tummies for ballet.<br>*also, I have tried the "froggy stretch" and it's so painful, I just can't do it! My turnout is horrible. I know that I've never had a class, but my feet only go to like 190 degrees before it starts to hurt. I know that that's more than 180 degrees, but it't totally coming from the ankles, and not the hip! (I've been doing my research!)<br>*okay-the splits. I can only do it with one leg! I can only do it with my left foot forward. and also, my back leg is flat on the floor, and I know that both legs are supposed to be flat. how can I do some good stretches? preferable ones that I can just do in my room. I know you're not supposed to stretch cold.<br>*How long will it take me to get on pointe if I work hard about two times a week?<br>* I live in NYC, does anyone know if there are some good dance classes for teen beginners? I am really nervous about starting to dance in NYC, the dancing is really serious though, you probably know that! <br>*what can I do to start before march?<br>*lastly, what do I need to start attire-wise?<br>sorry there are so many questions, please answer!!!<br><br>[/i] URL of own homepage (optional):  Name of homepage (without the homepage will not show!):  URL of a picture (optional):       Tags for smilies [neener]   [lurk]   [fire]   [grmpf-blue]   [grmpf-red]   [grmpf]   [brood-blue]   [brood-lilac]   [brood-red]   [brood]   [heart-pink]   [heart]   [kiss]   [normal]   [oh-lilac]   [acidic-red]   [oh]   [acidic-lilac]   [acidic-red]   [acidic]   [smile-orange]   [smile]   [pointed]   [updown]   [twinkle]
