The Research Self image is critical for a dancer’s
well being. Dancers often live close to their
company. Ballet is hard on the body, and
if they don’t care of themselves, their career is short-lived.

The Research A dancer lives in the movement. Sources were difficult to find
because the world of dance is not written word.
This was a topic about me and what I loved.

A Work in Progress The choreography process was
tedious, listening to music then taking notes.
I was their choreographer, psychologist, mentor, and family. It was my job to know the dancers.
I worked independent of my mentor.Rehearsing a small group number outside the front doors of the theatre.

A Work in Progress I was at almost every rehearsal. Sometimes, I wish I had more time
to work individually with the kids.
Reteaching and giving corrections were problems I did not expect.
Reviewing a dance with my “elephants”.

I Wanna Be Like You
We made use of what little space we were given.
While learning the dances, we learned the words to the songs.

In the End As difficult as it was, I learned
so much about myself. I’m planning on a major in Biology
and a minor in dance. All that I learned makes me a
better dancer in the end.
