At the start of the year, I did a thing: I went back to ballet after a long hiatus. Let’s just say my flexibility and strength did not get the memo 😅. It’s been and still is, equal parts humbling, challenging and rewarding.
With plenty of sore muscles, and a lot of determination, despite my chronic pain (yes, I am always in pain-hard concept to grasp, but I live with it), frequent injuries and dealing with bursitis in my toes and intermittent sciatica, I signed up to a 6-week Extension Course and Showing at the SDC. Huge thanks to my brilliant teacher @mr_rob_coaching (who gave us a 7.5 minute choreo 😁), and wonderful classmates for the encouragement, patience, and joy along the way. A special highlight was having my mum in Sydney to see me dance. 🩰✨ If you’ve ever thought about going back to do something you love, here’s your sign 😉🩷
Take me back to that beachy boho vibe of a Saturday afternoon, the salty tang of the ocean waves kissing my lips and the grains of sand between my feet 🌊 ☀️ 📷: @sim_fox
