Dance show

Im doing 2 ballet dances in my dance schools dance show in September

im rather scared, as its the 1st show with this dance school ill be doing, and the 1st show where ill be en pointe!

just to let you know, this is a photo of a ballerina en pointe.

im also doing a flat dance (not en pointe, to stage the obvious)

which im finding difficult becuase of one section where im constantly turning, and i get rather dizzy =/

but anyway, its o so very exciting!

Does that not hurt? en pointe that is

it hurt today a little bit, but thats becuase my toe nails are due for a cut :P

we get little pads to put inside the shoe to stop them from hurting as much.
oh and my feet have only bled once, and now one of my little does is permently purple/red
its great though, i love dancing

Tbh it looks fair dangerous to me

haha, thats the fun about it, might fall of.
and break your ankle!

nah, ive never fallen off my box, only been up for like 7 months.

Whoa, nice!

I guess you need to be quite slim to do this? i can imagine a fat bird doing it and snapping her feet in half

Do it naked!

Edit: and film it and send me the video.

well technically im 2 big for doing en pointe professionally, so thats that dream shattered lol.

but no, as long as your ankles are extreamly strong, fat birds can do it aswell.

there is a group that do ballet, and they are like size 22 and stuff.

ankles of steel tbh lol

forget the balls of steel

its all about ankles of steel in the dancing industry!
