Journalling:
From the age of 4, I took dance classes. First Modern Jazz and Tap, then Ballet. I enjoyed performing, but I wasn’t too fussed when I moved to just doing my exams and not the concerts. If you know dance, there’s a lot of time and money that goes into the concert each year. I loved ballet and continued up to grade 3 before we took a break from dance when I was 12. Years later I went back to dance (age 23!) and was part of the City of Perth Christmas Pageant. I moved over to doing pilates for a few years, then took up ballet again at 30.
Looking back, I wish I’d had more body confidence and kept going with ballet into my teen years. I was a late bloomer and felt shy being older and shorter than my fellow students. It’s a bit ironic, because that’s the typical ballerina shape!
Technique:
I had to use ballet pink on my page! I’m team pink in life in general so it’s not a stretch for me to pull out the Maggie Holmes Gather kit (in digital of course!). I chose a black and white floral in memory of my time at Gail Meade – Team GM is black and white!
