[horseprincess07]

she did this very well i think, but it is definitely not my favorite choreography. no offense meant, just stating a fact.

[OneLifetoChange]

@horseprincess07 no i agree its very calming, but theirs not much to see, she keeps repeating it.

@LambentFlare srry, but ballet is SO much more than showing off how long u can stand on ur toes

[LambentFlare]

So... what I'm getting from this... is that ballet... is just about showing off how long you can stand on your toes?

@mef815 i would hope so lol

[mef815]

@acedaface954 lol jk its gel

[acedaface954]

@mef815 wood? @loves2dance17 says its padding? how is wood comfy? lol

[mef815]

@acedaface954 they have little pieces of wood to stand on in their shoes

[acedaface954]

@loves2dance17 aaah. well thats a relief. so how much protection does it give them? ballpark figure percentage wise.

[loves2dance17]

@acedaface954 they do wear padding, most likely it's gel pads, lambs wool, or ouch pouches, there are different paddings you can use
