| Question: Getting back into dance? Posted: 16 Aug 2015 12:19 PM PDT Hi there, I am going to try to keep this sweet and simple. I am 19 years old and I haven't been in a professional / daily dance class since I was 13 years old. I love to dance and still have a good portion of my flexibility, however, I am out of shape as far as being a "dancer" goes. Additionally, I am a performing artist and when I attend dance calls I get very nervous that I'm not going to do well. Does anyone have any advice for: getting back into shape as a dancer, how to work on nerves of an audition. There are not dance classes at my college (or in the area that I can afford), but I have heard taking yoga can help with maintaining flexibility, but I really want to work on my technique.... Thoughts? |

| Question: How long will it take to get on pointe? Posted: 16 Aug 2015 09:33 AM PDT In order to be ready for pointe you need strong feet, ankles, legs and core along with balance and the ability to engage and hold turnout without sickling all the while in proper alignment. Most important is strong ballet technique. There are no shortcuts to that. In a good recreational ballet school it takes at least three consecutive years of taking three 90 minute ballet classes a week to be ready for pointe. Serious preprofessional dancers take way more classes as they are held to a higher standard before they are allowed en pointe. Going up sooner does not mean that you are a quick learner, have more natural gifts for ballet or work harder. It just means you have a bad ballet teacher. Unfortunately anyone can call themselves a ballet teacher with little or poor training. Dancers up too soon also are at a much greater risk of injury. Not to mention pointe work is painful if you are not strong enough to pull up out of your shoes. Pointe work is not supposed to be painful. Dancers up too soon only hobble about en pointe and can't really dance en pointe. If you cannot do something on flat and do it well, you won't be able to do it en pointe. Make sure you do your research well to find the right school. Stay away from competition dance as they are known for poor ballet technique as they emphasize tricks over proper form as that is how to win competitions. It is not how to learn ballet. Look for a school where the teachers have had professional ballet training as well as ballet careers. Steer clear of schools with 18 year old teachers who's only training has been at that recreational school. Also make sure that the school has sprung or floating floors. Marley on top is state of the art but as long as they are wood and sprung that is fine too. Marley over an unsprung floor won't do. The reason being working on a floor with no "give" and you will get injured. Any reputable school should have proper flooring. One last note, if this is just about getting the pointe shoes and not about learning ballet it is not likely you will stick with it long enough to get there. However if you really enjoy the process of learning ballet on flat you will be there before you know it. |
