Ballet

So in ballet, there are a bunch of different like little sections of things. There's little jumps, big jumps, um turns, traveling, things like that that you all that you like learn. I loved big jumps. I could jump for days and I loved it. Um I did ballet for like 15 years and jumps were just like the bread and butter. I could do jumps and I could out jump just about everybody. I could not out turn anybody. That was my that was my downfall. I could not turn for the life of me. But any sort of leap, any sort of big jump, that was really fun.

Looking back at ballet, there was a lot of things about it that were hard and that I would kind of dread about class because it was just hard. But I think one of my favorite things to do was barre, which is, there's like usually a barre in classroom, and you stand alongside it and you can do all kinds of exercises, anything from plies to tendus to rond de jambe and it's like a nice way to warm up and to kind of like stretch but also practice and kind of like target small ways to like strengthen your core, your legs, your ankles, and just get everything looking really nice so that when it comes to actually having to perform or go across the floor or different things like that, you've already targeted the smaller things and made them good.
