There is a World Beyond Ballet. September 24, 2014. Before I came to college my life was filled with classical pieces composed by Tchaichovsky, Bach, and others of the kind. My wardrobe consisted of tutus, pointe shoes, hairnets and bobby pins. I never challenged myself to see anything different and any work that I saw that strayed from my classical mold I considered to be strange or a poor performance. 18 Things Every Dance Choreographer Knows To Be True.

Once a Dancer, Always a Dancer. October 13, 2014. Of course I replied yes, but after the first two families I was still bewildered at why that had been brought up. Had I accidentally left on my tights from ballet? Had I not taken my hair out of a bun? Then, the third family to comment gave it away. As I stood, waiting for the other tour guide to give away facts on the School of the Arts, a mom looked at me and said, “Lovely fifth position.”. We All Have Our Ways. September 28, 2014.

18 Things Every Dance Choreographer Knows To Be True. July 4, 2014. No matter how many times you review your choreography notes, when it comes time to teach them at rehearsal, you’ll have no idea what you’ve written down. You kind of hate jazz squares but sometimes can’t help sneaking them into routines. While teaching a routine, you start out with proper counts, but usually dissipate into a series of duh duh duh bum bum BUM s. Grapevines can be deadly traps. Follow Blog via Email.

An Introduction to the World of Ballet. April 21, 2014. Tombe pas de bouree glissade sout de chat. To some of you these words may sound like a foreign language or a bunch of jibberish, but to ballerinas these words are no more than a simple 8-count combination that will move them across the floor. Don’t let the elegant language of ballet, the sparkly pink tutus, or the delicate ballerinas fool you dance is brutal. But, What is dance? Are we artists a painter might disagree. Are we athletes? As I am going...

We All Have Our Ways. September 28, 2014. I love this video created by the Australian Ballet. The dancers give us a peak into what their different rituals and techniques to make their pointe shoes work best for them. This is so revealing to every aspect of dance to me because beyond pointe shoes, we all have certain things that we do our way. We all have our different quirks and ways of doing things because after all, dance is about the self. There is a World Beyond Ballet. September 24, 2014. An Introdu...
