The love for ballet


Graceful movements, pirouettes, slinky posture, classical music, colourful tutus, ballet shoes, tights and leotards – all these encompasses a ballerina. How awesome is it to see a ballerina dancing on a stage; the movements are free flowing, like a chiffon cotton cloth being blown by the wind. Ballet stage plays just merely catches the hearts of every audience; awed and mystified by the beauties of each ballerina and how timeless and classy they move. I admire ballerinas because they seem to be graceful at all times; just there mere fact that they do ballet makes them so amazing.
I was once a ballerina in my own little way. I used to have those ballet lessons when I was still in pre-school or maybe that was like my elementary years. Attending ballet classes was fun but I guess I did not realize it’s worth way back. I used to enjoy every ballet classes I used to attend every after school. I liked having those colourful tights and leotards; I had like a number of them. I loved my pink ballet shoes. I enjoyed recitals and I get challenged by the thought of it. The sad part is, I stopped ballet lessons mainly because the little girl me that time got tired with the kind of schedule I used to have. Mom used to tell me that I got tired of doing it and that I want to stop ballet lessons. Well, when I got older, I realized that the decision that I had years ago was a wrong move. I regret why I stopped attending ballet lessons. What can I do, I was just a kid, not thinking about the decisions to be made. Maybe for me that time, it was a good decision to stop but actually it’s not. I wish I could just go back in time and erase that part when I made my not so good decision about quitting the whole ballet thing.
Years may go by but still my love for dancing and ballet will forever be there. It didn’t matter if I stopped way back but the thought of it that I experienced doing ballet, doing the moves and pirouettes, then I can say that it’s enough for me. My love for ballet and dancing as a whole would forever be there. I will always love stage plays, theatre acts, movies which has something to do with dancing and stuffs like that. Two thumbs up and full applause to the ballerinas out there. I simply adore you all.
