"don't ball your feet under"

NAWH REALLY?

and dat first positon...

i have a little bit of hyperextension so my ankles dont really completely touch but that is just abominable :/

i'm sure all the people that liked this have never taken even one real ballet class...

[dqtanjaa]

Why are you teaching this to people if you can't get it right?

THAT IS NOT FIRST!

And your hands don't need to touch each other!

SO FRUSTRATING! Your not helping the world!!!!!
