Ballet for Beginners; First Period [03/15].
There were some days when you just didn't want to ballet. Those were most days for Rosa, really, if she was honest, but she was feeling it especially that day. Almost to the point where she thought about phoning it in for another movie day, but...nahhh. It was, what, just a small slice of time that was at least better than dealing with the troopers that morning? And, if she was honest, sucking it up and doing class proper today would be a small price to pay now that they were on choreography, and that meant watching her students try to work their way awkwardly through it. Especially Fish Boy.
Sorry, kids. The schaudenfruede was strong with this one.
The music for the day went back to classic, too, especially since they would be working on was very particular. When in doubt, just doSwan Lake Goose Pond.
"We're going to learn a new variation today," Rosa informed them as they started to get settled for class and, hopefully, by now, already knew to get started on stretching, because, seriously, you guys. "That first one was just steps, for the most part. This one is a performance, in that you'll be representing the main character in a ballet story, so the steps are representive of that story and all that sort of thing. It's an iconic, quintessential role. Remember that movie we watched? Yeah, that was for this role, but, obviously, we're doing a beginner's variation. And it's going to focus a lot on arms. A lot of beginners don't pay enough attention to what their arms are doing, but the arms are a big part of the whole..." She waved a hand vaguely "...thing. So, in addition to the steps, I want you guys to pay really close attention to what your arms are doing.
"Let's get started."
