Ballet Lesson 1

Hello.

I am not going to lie. My body aches like hell. I had to foam roll my legs and all that... My father asks why I want to do "such things".. By this, I am pretty sure he is referring to me learning ballet as an adult. Well, because, I want to see if I can. I have always found it so graceful, so technically challenging, interesting.. Well. That's reason enough isn't it?

I am reminded of the time I really wanted to try ballet classes, last year, and how the lady who owned the studio asked if I would like to try contemporary instead (yes, I bought a groupon). She said it would be less challenging, and that I may find it better.. Truth is, she just wanted to fit me into an existing class, rather than to open a class for me specially. I mean, sure, it was a good business move, but ultimately, I shoved the dream aside (hey, dance IS dance, and I haven't tried contemporary, so I wasn't going to write it off!). But now, here I am.

Dancing

So recently I have been learning how to dance properly (it would be my third lesson this week), and so I am feeling quite happy and I shall be documenting my progress as time goes by. The instructor, whose name is also Sarah, is teaching us  few steps at a time, and this is as far as it goes at this point of time. 

I did a bit of chinese dance when I was younger, and recently I've also tried Zumba. It is a fantastic, fast paced dance, though I feel I would like something more controlled. Hence, I am trying contemporary dance, and I am enjoying myself so far. I bought a Groupon, HAHA. 

That's all from me for now. 

Till the next time!

Much love.
