This is a trailer for my company’s Nutcracker :) I was Clara, so the first video is me, and I come on more at 0:12, 0:50, 0:54, and some other places :) Corrections of my performance are welcome! Please watch and share <3
Hey first post on my Clara blog!!! I’ll tag all of these as Clara and I’ll make a page for them.
Ok, so tonight, I skipped my Pilates class for a rehearsal. It was just listed as me and the Nutcracker prince! I had no idea what we were doing.
So we got in there and we learned some little pas de Deux movements!!! I’ve never done any pas de Deux before, so it was new to me, but my teacher let me do it on flat :) so now I have to practice it on pointe! :/
We learned all of that, and it was all kind of awkward between me and the Prince. Lol. He’s my age and he has to hold my waist and my armpits (!) and my hands…. Awkward
So it was really fun!!! I broke in some new Freed pointe shoes so I got a lot of blisters :/ but I’ll Epsom salt my feet when I get home.

This is a 16-year-old at my studio. My teacher loves her and she’s going to competition this year! Go comment nice things :) Say that Anna sent you :) hehe
Sorry for the super low quality (my friend took it with her phone) This is me doing the Kitri Variation from Don Quixote at this end of summer camp showcase at my studio Keep in mind I’m 13!
And the video got all weird and compressed, i look fat now lol
I just want to try a competition like YAGP, to see how I do.
Also, I’ve been asking for private lessons for a year now and he still hasn’t scheduled anything or talked to me about it, yet he’s been giving other people and gymnasts who have never even danced at his studio privates every week….. :( i just want to dance!
Is this normal?? What’s going on?!???
I am crying right now!
He was saying something about how I couldn’t of a lot of the jumps in some of the variations I’ve learned, but that’s because he never even taught me them!!!!I am 13 taking classes with 17-year-olds and he never stops to explain anything!
There’s this other girl who’s 16 and he’s explained many steps to her and now he’s taking her to YAGP next year…. I am younger and TERRIBLE so why won’t he CORRECT ME?! I’m not a prodigy! He can’t just show me a step on YouTube and expect me to do it perfectly. I need coaching! That’s why I go to class 16 hours a week!!!And I’m not getting taught!!!! And I am willing to pay any price to get some FREAKING PRIVATE LESSONS!!!! So why do random gymnasts get that privilege?
I want to be a dancer! THAT’S ALL I LIVE FOR!!!! And I don’t think he believes in me. :’(
