....follow your dream !
written by wanting to be a dancer on 21.01. at 22:02:31 *I'm like 5'6, and I think I'm going to grow more, and I'm 120 lbs. 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.*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!)*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.*How long will it take me to get on pointe if I work hard about two times a week?* 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! *what can I do to start before march?*lastly, what do I need to start attire-wise?sorry there are so many questions, please answer!!!
