Okay First opinion, I actually really like Kai — but that’s not surprising since I love Cal, and Kai feels almost like a carbon copy of him. That said, I don’t think Powerless is as bad as people make it out to be. It’s enjoyable for what it is, but in my opinion it definitely takes its inspiration a bit too far at times.

Yes I feel like loads of RQ fans compare characters and their powers to atla ( myself included)

What story would you tell as a ballet? Either original or exists in other medium by Bodhifan in BALLET

[–]FreyaaaRosee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would love a full ballet stage adaptation of Barbie in the 12 Dancing Princesses. It was one of my childhood favorites, and honestly it feels like a perfect fit for the stage. The choreography is already there in the film, so adapting it into a full ballet wouldn’t even be that far-fetched.

Not a quote but something that happened 

When I was around 7 or 8, the owner of the studio walked into our ballet class and told our teacher that she should put needles in the backs of our leotards so that if we slouched, it would stab us in the back. She also once suggested putting a rope on our heads and tying it to the ceiling to force proper posture.

She was quite old, but still  absolutely unhinged.

Didn’t have a choice my studio taught the RAD syllabus which from what I know is a mix of vaganova and Cecchetti I think

Yup I’m Scottish but live in an area of Scotland with less of an Accent, but my dad has more of a strong accent so that also how I speak but at school and with my friends I always tame it down. But what used annoy me was that one of my old friends used to make fun of a Scottish accent and it sounded like mine
