When I was younger I really wanted pointe shoes so I tried that. Got them less than a year later.😂

[@lex3683]

I know right. I see these shows or magazines with these literal 7 year olds on pointe......WHICH IS RIDICULOUS. They are not nearly strong or mature enough for pointe shoes most girls don’t get/aren’t ready for pointe shoes until age 11 or 12.

[@Tintenfischchen]

@@lex3683 I absolutely agree! I've seen 7 year olds do fouettes en pointe and everyone in the comments is always like "wow she's so talented!" and I'm like "that's unneccessary and dangerous! Sure, every child is different, but no child is ready for advanced moves in the center en pointe at freakin' SEVEN years old!" 😠😤

Girl last year we have a strict WHITE leotard dress code. It was trauma inducing.

[@Tintenfischchen]

My school had different colours for the different levels...Of course they had to pick white for the junior girls who just started puberty in many cases... I was always worried everyone could see my nipples through the thin white fabric and if you gained like a hundred grams, you could see it in those trauma inducing white leotards! 😱

[@paige1751]

Lol mine school is just black. Every. Single. Year

[@Tintenfischchen]

@@paige1751 Black is a lot more flattering than white though... I have lots of different colors and styles, but I still mostly go for the black ones for ballet class nowadays and so do many other girls... We don't have any kind of dresscode but we're all adults and therefore expected to know how to dress appropriately for ballet class...😅🌛

I work in a Ballet company/school wardrobe in Canada and learning how to make tutu's which is a process. So much hand tacking goes into them, but it's so fun to do! Some of the tutus we make for shows, with the decorated plate would cost about 3-5k to make all decorated with the bodice. A practise tutu alone is still about 400$ for students.

[@socialgoat5519]

when i used to dance, if you were at a younger/lower level you'd wear a dusty rose pink leotard, crossover, and wrap skirt (+tights and shoes) and when you got to a certain level you'd get to wear the exact same thing except in plum/indigo. now, i'm looking at rejoining the school (it's been about 8-9 years!) and whilst it's at the same location, i'm pretty sure it's a new school because with each level there's a different colour. like, younglings get the pink, then lilac, then mulberry, then plum, and then navy. actually, fun story since i'm excited for rejoining ballet! i contacted the school the other day and asked about their adult ballet classes (i'm 18) and they said they'd be putting me in a senior/advanced class (the advanced class requires demi pointes oop). which leaves me very concerned about their expectations of my skill level, i only recently started doing stretches again with Mackenzie's videos and whilst i want to hope i'm good enough for the class, i'm unsure if i'll be ready for demi pointes anytime soon and if i'll be behind at all. (for anyone wondering btw, the only reason i stopped doing ballet when i was younger was because my parents rage quit me after my teacher told me i wasn't good enough to do the exams but that i'd do an "assessment" XD)

I miss ballet so much... I used to do classes when I was younger up into my teens, but they were focusing more on tap and I didn't like tap dancing at all it didn't vibe with me like ballet did and it was a mixed class too with younger kids, and the focus was not on us older ones so I had to leave. :( i really wanted to focus on ballet. Yeah I could just pick it up again after this COVID situation, but I don't know man. I had a rough time in horse riding classes with a teacher who had favourites and well, I developed body dysphoria. I know the ballet world can have teachers who can be like that and I DON'T want that happening again. But my old dancer teacher was really nice and patient, just she focused more on tap and the younger ones. I understood it was a blended ballet and tap class,but... ballet was just something that filled me with so much joy and happiness. I loved it and still love watching it now.
