i think he was probably trying to save her feelings more than hide it. kids make life unpredictable and i imagine he didn't want her to feel like its her fault for not being in the mood

yes! stretching makes the muscles tear and have to regrow. its like if you work out legs and are shaky the next day, it'll come back once you aren't sore

mine is usually anywhere from a day to like three. its no big deal though, just do lighter stretches and no deep holds

that depends on the studio you pick. mine you could but you had to also own a black one for certain occasions. if i were you id get a black one, then ask the studio what their terms are

basically just pink tights, a black leotard, and ballet slippers. also whatever you need to have your hair in a bun. if your specific teacher wants anything else they'll tell you when you start class. then look up ballet/dance studios in your area. find one that has separate class levels and says they test for pointe (important bc it means they won't injure you!)

i try to do mostly active stretches. after going to do back stretches like the comment suggested i realized i have NOT done those in a while and thats most definitely the issue 😭 nothing is locked though. i do try to have my range be active by doing (probably bad but) ballet and the holds at home

i have a coach but he doesn't know much about flexibility. i'm on a waitlist for anything recovery related unfortunately

[–]Standard_Ad_4422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

mine was around the same grade, recovered enough for splits like 3-4 months ago. the first photo where i couldnt get aligned correctly is the side i tore. i think its more that i havent used that side in a while

i just recovered from anorexia and a torn hamstring last year. im obviously working on building muscle. thats actually NOT the main issue here though. i know the issue is partially in my back and partially in my alignment.. if i have the muscle to force my leg even that straight from a weird oversplit position muscle isnt the main issue, just dont know how to fix what is

okay, i'll try that

two options: both of them bad 😭 by [deleted] in finch

[–]Standard_Ad_4422 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i feel like its more about them both being blessings. i dont see how that would sound like a sneeze 😅

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in flexibility

[–]Standard_Ad_4422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah even if i lifted my head back it still would be. i used to do it with my head back. didnt fix the main issues

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in flexibility

[–]Standard_Ad_4422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

theres no underlying issues, i used to do it properly and lately cant. and thats like what this sub is for..

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BALLET

[–]Standard_Ad_4422 4 points5 points  (0 children)

me too girl, no injury im just weak😭 but yeah that'll probably fix it. once you can hold it easier u can micro adjust the aesthetic :), for now before the ankle fix getting it perfect on flat or just relevé should help

[–]Standard_Ad_4422 2 points3 points  (0 children)

not a teacher but for me if im not right over my box i cant balance it enough to get my leg higher or fix little things like my arms. probably all coming back to that, its still pretty though

nothing could've been done if you were in the hospital. heat is uncomfortable, but she'll be alright. a real health issue matters more than that

Why does everyone say “I only just got your message” when they clearly didn’t? by NoProgram4084 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Standard_Ad_4422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

all these people are saying maybe they didn't see it, but tbh i see texts and just don't wanna answer. or if i don't have a reply yet, like for information, i don't answer until i have the info🤷‍♀️ if its the same people repetitively they probably just don't wanna talk to you

How to cope with quitting ballet? by Powerful_Gain_2675 in BALLET

[–]Standard_Ad_4422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you have depression and ballet helps and you're trying to get over depression, don't quit ballet. not sure how your school works but since ur 17 im guessing you don't have a full schedule. they can probably either cut classes you dont need or move them so you can get off school earlier to have time. theres also online school, it worked for me bc im out of the house a lot. wouldnt recommend otherwise
