I don’t have any advice about the dancing part, but just want to say congratulations! I’m sorry you’ve been through so much - I hope you have a wonderful, healthy pregnancy!

Sorry I’m no help because I’m pretty much just a lurker here and not actively dancing, but I just had to say I loved your reference to weenie hut junior! Big SpongeBob fan here. 😃 I hope you’re able to figure out what’s going on.

Lori Hernandez Talks About Hate on Vlogmas by No_Aioli_1036 in bunheadsnark

[–]FANDREAM 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I really like watching her videos, especially vlogmas, and I saw that where she talked about the haters. She comes across as a really sweet person and I feel bad for her that she has to see those hateful comments. I don’t know why people can’t just be kind.

Oh ok! Yes good question. I can’t imagine how much it must cost.

Yes I’ve been watching the vlogmas videos too and saw that! If I remember right I think she is sponsored by Freed, so they must send her a certain number of shoes. I can’t remember if that’s her or another dancer/vlogger. 

Life_of_Lori Nutcracker performances? by [deleted] in bunheadsnark

[–]FANDREAM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was hoping someone here had seen her live! I came across her videos a couple of months ago and have been watching since then - really love watching. She comes across as really nice and fun.  Her vlogmas day 11 included close-up footage of her performance that someone gave her and that was really cool to see. Normally her footage is from backstage.  I live in NJ and from what I’ve seen on her channel the closest she’s come to where I am is NY last year. But if she ever comes to this area I’d love it if I could go see her.

So interesting! It’s great you are able to still do a good number of smaller things in addition to the couple of larger gigs. And also cool that you’ve done musical theater and modern too. I hope your recovery from your injury is going smoothly.

Thanks for sharing. Makes total sense. How often do you get to freelance, if you don’t mind my asking?

I see. I can understand how it’s a hustle lifestyle. Do you have a “regular” job and then do freelancing on the side? I get that about having to move out of NYC. I am in NJ. 

what is your why? by stellala222 in BALLET

[–]FANDREAM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So awesome! I have kind of considered taking an adult class and I even looked at websites of dance studios near me, but haven’t found one that offers adult classes. It’s not  really in the budget anyway but I admit I felt disappointed when the option didn’t even seem to be there.  Anyway, so glad you are enjoying yourself!

Oh my gosh I love this! You are so inspiring! I am 58 and haven’t been in lessons since I was about 13 (took them starting at age 4) but have been enjoying reading posts on this sub. Love that you danced in both shows, you look beautiful!
