This was a bad day since it was Sunday and I didn't have any classes. Tomorrow after pointe I'll upload a decent video maybe.

In here I am using the suckiest pointe shoes made, Principles. I am getting fitted for ones to support my arch soon.
PLEASE NOTE: I will post a video of my arches so you can see them on a good day.

Today they're sucky.

Anyway, I've only had 5 pointe classes.
Why?

My pointe teacher put me on pointe a week before my ballet summer intensive ended so my first class involved all this and spinning. I had 2 classes in that week and now I have had 3 since my academy started up. I APOLOGIZE AGAIN since I am wearing my first and sucky shoes. I NEED BLOCHS OR GAYNOR MINDENS OR SOMETHING!!!!!! So...

*excited*

I get to audition for SAB and ABT for their summer program!
Woo!

SAB- School (of) American Ballet
ABT- American Ballet Theatre

Google them or something...
BUT BALLERINAS SHOULD KNOW WHO THEY ARE!

Sadly I wouldn't be attending since I live too far away from New York.

But it would be something on my resume.
And I won't lie to say I get in or don't.

Failure keeps you humble and improving.
Succeeding comes from many trials of failure.

I HOPE I AT LEAST GET INTO SAB!

I HAVE THE SAB BODY!

AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • pointe rox! i have mias from grishko and i've done about 3-4 months of pointe so as much as u i guess. I need to start practicing more at home though. I can't wait until we tart doing variations!!!!!!!!!

  • No, this video I was only on 5 classes. I am now a little past 3 months and I got new pointe shoes (Chacotts) and they are super lightweight, supportive, and they broke in in one class so since it was the day before Turkey Day break my teacher let my class and I do four little swans en pointe since we learned it on flat in the summer and it was uber fun :) But for the summer workshop I did Bluebird :)

  • Learned too new theraband exercises off this, thanks. :]

  • Don't thank me, thank my ballet instructor :) Well, one of them. They confused me when I first got a theraband, a friend had to help me when I moved. :) Do you have a pinky ball? If you rub a pinky ball on the attachments in your back you can gain 3 inches of turn-out in 4-5 months! :)

see all

  • " If you rub a pinky ball on the attachments in your back you can gain 3 inches of turn-out in 4-5 months! :)" Sorry, but what is a "pinky ball" ?

  • You really should take the 1st nail out of the arch of those shoes so that your feet look better!1 no offense=] also, remember to turn out from your hips

  • Personally I like Bloch's Serenade. :)

  • yea, her shoes look good but she has verry weak ankles and not a very good arch! keep practicing girlly!

  • ohh my gosh... I wanna got to SAB SOOOO badly for the summer... ABT not so much.

  • take care of your shoes! dont go on en pointe on carpet! it ruins the satin D:
