Challenges I Faced

In technique class on Monday, I was struggling with my flat lower back while trying to roll up from the ground for ab work. I'm still struggling with trying not to make everything look pretty. It's very hard for me and sometimes I don't even realize that I'm being all ballet-ish during modern. Ballet-ish is not a real word but I made it my own. Hopefully I'm making it better. I am trying though and can hopefully fix these things soon.

what i've learned so far(due 9/17)

So far this year, I have learned a lot about myself. I have learned that I need to focus on the little details, such as arm and hand placement. I also have to stop resorting to the "studio style" (aka showy and sparkly). I'm working on those things by paying attention to everything that Ms.Mack demonstrates.

My weekend

this past weekend i took a really cool workshop in north nj. it was called a day of fame and i got to meet and take classes with dancers from the remake of fame and also took class with the choreographer, Marguerite Derricks. i got to learn some of the choreography too.it was so awesome!
