Absolutely amazing.
Well on Friday, I saw Alina Cojocaru and Johan Kobborg do Sleeping Beauty with ABT at the Met and that was phenomenal; as my friend quotes, I swear those two ‘are sent down to earth from heaven.’ Probably the best performance I have seen and will ever see. Yuriko Kajiya was Lilac Fairy, Sarah Lane + Daniil Simkin were doing Bluebird Pas de Deux.

Anonymous asked: Hi I have been on a competitive dance team for about 5 years now. Back in 2009, my team and I won 1st place at nationals. Since then my dance teacher has been pushing us extremely hard. So anyway, my friends and I were practicing our trio and there is an aerial out of turns at the end of the dance.

agirlfortheshow asked: Go stretches for a better straddle are simple splits. Try sitting in your best split for a while and then with out leaving the floor switch to your other split and hold it.

justcallie-deactivated20120320 asked: For Anon who wants to know about her arch, honestly a theraband is one of the best ways to improve your arch, they are cheap (about $6) I'm not sure why you don't want to use it. If its not working, try a more resilient band, with a heavier weight! They are the best!
