A few weeks ago, my ballet class was able to perform our variations. Christie, my amazing teacher, invited the parents to come to the last half-hour of class so we could put on a mini performance. We'd been practicing the variations for a couple months and we were excited to show how much we'd grown and practiced. I performed Kitri, Four Swans, Giselle peasant and Giselle adagio. These were very hard but so worthwhile! I loved all of them, especially performing them as the character and in front of an audience. Kitri is very fiery, fast and flirtatious. Christie felt this was my best one, so I did it as a solo and the rest in a duet (or quartet in four swans). These girls are some of my best friends and the time we have together in the studio is so fun, hard, exhilarating and magical. I absolutely love ballet and I feel so fortunate to have a studio with such an amazing atmosphere and teacher. Clytie girl forever!!
