Yesterday I went to ballet class! If you saw the other blog post, you would know that I am starting ballet again and that I went there yesterday. I am going to write about how it went!
When we got there, my dad dropped me off while he and Sophie went to park the car. I waited for him inside, and then there were some lockers where you could put your stuff. So I put the bag that I had with me inside there. Then I put on my ballet shoes and headed toward the room where our class was going to start. We were about 5 mins early, so I just waited until it started. And when it did, my dad and Sophie went to our brother's house and stayed there until it was over. The boy's house is about 5 mins away from there.
Here is a picture that my dad took of me putting my stuff in the locker:
So it started, and everybody sat in a circle, and the teacher, Mrs.Teal, asked us what fun thing we did for Christmas. I said we went sledding in the snow. And by the way, there were about ten girls there. Only I think two eleven-year-olds and I were the oldest—the rest were about nine to ten years old. After everybody said what fun thing they did for Christmas, we all got up and did lots of different stretches that Teal showed us. Then, after all of that, we went to the barre and started doing different moves that Teal was showing us. Like we were in the fifth position, we did many different ballet movements. Sorry, but I forgot what each one was called. And even if I did remember, it would be a lot to say since we did many different ballet movements! After we learned a lot of ballet moves, we put them to music. It was a lot of fun! Then for some faster ballet moves, we put in faster music! And sometimes it would be Disney music! :) And already, my body was hurting from all the exercises and the ballet moves we did! :) At the end of the class, Teal put music on, turned a few lights off, and let us dance however we wanted! So we did! And then the class was over. And my dad and Sophie were waiting for me in the lobby area. I got my stuff from the locker, and my dad and Sophie headed home!
I had such a fun time! I can't wait until next Thursday!
