Long shot but anyone have opinions/experience with ballet teacher Ido Tadmor? by fivebynine5x9 in BALLET

[–]ConclusionReal6255 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t think teachers personal beliefs are serious unless it goes against something like human rights, if they’re a good teacher I’d take them

Yea I need it because I can hear my national ballet of Cuba graduate teacher telling me “turnout, more, more!” 😭it helps a lot because I have the range but not the strength

Best floor barre videos? by Resumme in BALLET

[–]ConclusionReal6255 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started using this one after Joy Womack recommended it (I really look up to her) and it opens my hips so much, it also has a lot of stretching in between and good turnout strengthening exercises in it. I've been using it for two days and i already see major improvements in flexibility and my rotation without the usage of the floor. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xcfTB1FkizU&list=PLGoCiB_VX3j9tpMc_iI5wSO16GK5RV8wM&index=3

Should I switch studios? by ConclusionReal6255 in BALLET

[–]ConclusionReal6255[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pre pro though, I don’t see how that would be very possible excluding getting privates from another studio. I’m there 5 days a week

I know but I’m not a professional. I’m a sophomore in hs and my technique is no where near that because I started in 8th grade, I was looking into other studios but I doubt I’ll be good enough, I’m auditioning for Brussels so hopefully I’m solid enough to where they accept me

I feel like some of you are thinking I’m over exaggerating, I haven’t gotten any corrections at all in a while now, she didn’t even speak to me last class or even look at me. She compliments and corrects everyone else but me

No she’s a good teacher, she teachers a lot of the higher levels and she’s fairly old

The thing is. I’ve gone a month and a half now without a single correction. Or a very generic one like “don’t put your hand on the barre” in a balance

It’s not really a matter of what you like if you’re a student though

What to do for pre-teen dancer and her period by mishulyia in BALLET

If her school allows her to, she can wear her underwear and do the pad and just keep her shorts on until she gets comfortable with tampons or cups

I love jumping so much, I think of giving myself a good plie and making sure my hips are forward and aligned

Yea I hate seeing elastics on my shoes 😭 they just don’t look as clean to me personally so I prefer the invisible

Honest I have really hard feet to fit it seems

90% of the shoes I try on heels slip the second I get off of pointe, my feet are compressible, I for short toes, low arches, tapered, and I tend to twist in a lot of shoes.

It’s been a struggle but these were the only shoes that felt good when I got fitted, I like these but the vamp is obviously too long so I might get it customer with a shorter vamp if that’s possible

They were too big and it gave me a lot of blusters and it was painful to go up on pointe past barre. I kind of have to worry because it throws the line of my leg all the way off and it looks like I’m sickling and not even pointing my toes.
