Summer Classes– Thursday

Blue Pointe Shoes

Phew. Is it really Monday already? Where does the time go…?

Thursday was fantastic! Miss Sara has decided to incorporate Cecchetti Grade Two into our regular ballet class which brings a huge smile to my face. For the next few weeks we are going to focus a lot on Cecchetti– after all, the exams are on their way!

Besides regular ballet classes and Cecchetti work, I have started working on pointe! I may not have shoes, but I will soon. I am taking a 45 minute beginner pointe class (without shoes) this summer, and I already love it! Miss Sara recommended that we all buy a strong “Thera-band” to stretch our feet with. I found a pack of three at the store, but I’ll only be using the black band, as it is the strongest. I would most likely snap the blue and green bands before I could complete a single stretch… and nobody likes that.

And that, dancers, is how I spent my Thursday. If anything extraordinarily exciting happens in class this week, I’ll be here to tell every detail!

Just keep dancing, dancing, dancing…
