hmmmm I think level 4... it has been 4 years so it is hard to remember. Have a wonderful time there! The training is phenomenal.

I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who has commented and viewed. Just an update, I do not dance anymore due to an injury. :( Things happen for a reason though.

bad feet but good

[dancngraindrop02]

sorry i just had to reply to this because of all things I have beautiful feet! (not to be cocky or anything but..) the shoes I was wearing at the time were shit and I changed them and they look WAY better. I went from Blochs (which I still love just they are not right for my feet, to Freeds!) But I don't need to justify this soo.. carry on

You dance gracefully. It's calming to watch. Thank you for sharing this.

hey babe! I'm just gonna yoututbe-meddle and give my opinion =p

I don't think you have bad feet either! To be honest, I just don't like those shoes on you either, but you look like you could bring your feet out even more if you were to continue strengthening it - although I assume you already are.

Kudos for going for such a delicate role! Very brave!

I like your musicality too

Very lovely. I know everyone has been talking about your feet, but in my opinion, strength of character is more important than anything in this variation. You had that signature Raymonda feeling at the beginning, but as this variation is so long, you lost a bit of it near the end. Keep it intense throughout. Wonderful job!

I hope it is just the shoes, you are not consistent about getting up on your box, esp the bit starting around 2:20. Could be bad shoes... could be poor technique.. or could be fatigue.
