Ballet is my passion. I have started dancing when I was about 4 years, so I have trained already about 13 years. When I was young, I used to be very busy and loudly child, so my parents thought that this maybe could calm me down. It has happened.
ReplyDeleteAt the beginning it was just fun for me, but now it is very hard work, which shapes my body and my character.
At one time I had only classic dance and rhythmics. Now I train modern dance and classic dance still. 3 years ago I had hip-hop, but it ended a year ago.
For the classical dance we exercises by the rod, next we have fast part, jumps, in the middle of the hall, at the end we dance on puenty.
The modern dance start with warm-up and stretching, next we dance and try mastering the choreography, which we had learnt before.
If the teacher finds that everything is fine, then we will create a new choreography.
At the year's old there is always a performance in the philharmonic.
I love them because we get beautiful outfits, and we create a new choreography. We have amazing music too.
The performance is different every year. We danced among other Cinderella, the Thumbelina, 4 Seasons of the Year.
My first choreography was the “Pawana”. It was a very dignified, walking dance.
I adore dance. I love what I do.
