A Body Will Always Hurt After A Good Day of Dancing

Thank God i got to ballet before 3:00 today! I’m riding a different bus now and it seems to work much better. Success!
My first class of the day was ballet as usual. today was a level 5/6 class instead of 6/7, which meant all the girls who moved up from level 4 were there, making it a really huge class. There was this new guy in class today which was great (we need way more since our main guy, Zane, just moved to go dance with Ballet Chicago)! Anyway, he definitely wasn’t experienced enough yet to be in level five, but im sure with a couple years of training he will be totally up to scratch and ready to do some hard-core partnering!
After ballet, i had an hour break in which to re-fuel and ice my ankle.
Tap was fairly normal. it was pretty challenging because it was an advanced class and i only started in like April, but i think i actually did pretty well! Yay for me!
Contemporary was tooooootally awesome! this was the class i have been looking forward to for like the whole summer! Vincent (probably my favorite teacher at spectrum) will be teaching for the first 4 weeks which is SUPER great. Then Ty (another super amazing awesome dancer/person) will take over! my life is totally perfect! The class was pretty challenging so i definitely had to be thinking on my toes the whole class, but it was still like crazy fun and a great experience.
Sad news: i pulled my hamstring toward the end of DB contemporary and after dancing so much, my ankle is totally in pain.
I am SO looking forward to a nice warm bath.
p.s. “DB” stands for “Donald Byrd” who is the artistic director of the Spectrum Dance theater company.
p.p.s. Vincent winked at me during class today… teehee
