YEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS I AGREE SO MUCH AND IT IS PROBABALY A BIT WEIRD THAT NERVES ARE FUN- BUT THEY ARE!!!! BEING BACKSATGE IS JUST SO AWESOME

Yeah, it does! Make a mistake = you have a broken ankle. Not properly trained beforehand and strong enough to go up = permanent damage to legs, ankles and feet. So you need a lot of practice before going up- to make sure you're ready- and afterwards, so you become secure, and are able to dance on pointe. For the first year, you do pretty much nothing in the center, everything is done holding onto the bar, and it's only just about now that we are starting to be allowed to properly dance in the center, and even then, we have to be super careful. Thanks! I it us actually kinda cool when you think about :). I guess just I've just been dancing for a very long time :)

Yep, I do! My tests, as well as written work we are told to collect over the course of 4-6 weeks, are scanned and sent to tuors in England to mark and comment on :)
