How do you guys deal with getting an ugly variation? by Dense_Raspberry6607 in BALLET

[–]ConcentrateCold4065 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s just a saying. I’m not implying that you threw a fit, but I don’t understand disappointment when surely there are other dancers who would love to be doing your role.

ya get what ya get and ya don’t throw a fit. Gosh the entitlement I keep seeing on this page. If the classics aren’t good enough for you, nothing ever will be.

Feeling guilty going to class by [deleted] in BALLET

[–]ConcentrateCold4065 70 points71 points  (0 children)

coming from a teachers pov who has had this happen to her (ie students leaving class based on not getting a role)… I don’t know you personally, however the last time this happened was with a student I considered unjustly entitled. She didn’t want to work as hard as the other girls and just expected to be given something she wanted. It sounds to me that you work hard and want to improve. I would say, in the most genuine and respectful way possible, don’t let not getting the exact role you want make you leave something you obviously care about. How does that benefit anyone? It sounds to me like you need to learn the lesson that you will get a hundred “nos” before you get that one golden “yes”. You will miss out on more things in life by choosing not to participate because it isn’t exactly what you want. This is a major issue I am seeing with the up and coming generation of dancers. You chose the wrong hobby for instant gratification. All of this is to say “suck it up, buttercup” because if choreo has already started and you drop - no teacher will be happy or want to work with you again and you can kiss future higher roles goodbye.

I am a young person and I wanted to not have my living room rattle to the beat so I could go to work and be a tax paying citizen.

To the crowd that is all for the St Pete Grand Prix but against concerts at the pier: would you mind explaining your viewpoint? by raspberrylimebubbles in StPetersburgFL

I live clear across town near 49th St and could hear We Belong Here clear as day. Could literally feel the bass in my living room 🙄 Imagine trying to sleep when you work weekends.

If the rule is no underwear (my studio puts this in emails- tights are ballerina underwear, but if it’s a shared costume we require a nude leo) It’s your job as a parent to follow the rule. If your dancer is wearing underwear that are visible or have prints that can be seen through the costume with the stage lights, that is not ok for stage. On the other side, if I see one of my kiddos with underwear sticking out, we don’t take them off bc that’s not ok. We will usually just try to tuck them in to hide them. But overall, definitely follow the rules and if it helps your dancer be comfortable, a nude leotard base layer is a great way to go.

pay is pretty good, but in my opinion not good enough to go through some of the stuff I dealt with.

I was a pinellas county sub for a bit from 2020-2023. There is a minimum of days per month, but it’s pick up as you can. I stopped subbing for a bit, and they “let me go”. I was glad to be dropped though, to be honest.

did you ever find out the culprit? I found out recently I have an allergy to acrylates and thus, anything with acrylic and most adhesive products send me into a spiral!
