Back to Class Ache




First class after the long and lazy holiday break was a mess. I was soooo dead by the end of class. During the middle of barre I was so fatigued I started to doubt I would even make it, hell after we did our warm-ups I was already bent over my wobbly legs moaning from the pain of my weak and unresponsive muscles.

 My mind wouldn't work either and remembering combinations was a joke. I think the only thing I was able to do "somewhat well" was my very first pirouette.. but I only managed to squeeze out one of those properly. The rest were all over the place with backwards arms pulled in too close or placed too high.  Blergh!

Thankfully, I wasn't the only one in class that was really suffering and the teacher decided to go easy on us. <3

I guess a holiday full of nothing but candies, cakes, holiday feasts and bottles of wine with little to no physical activity other than walking from car to couch will do that to ya. Hmmmmmm.....


Well it's another new year and I'm excited to get back into the routine of ballet classes and muscles stiffness!
