It's Time to Work.

How do i answer the question "work" in terms of a ballet class? There is almost as much work thinking about a way to explain that as there is in class. Due to the fact that there are countless things that need to be thought mentally before you even begin to start moving your body. For me Ballet obviously is not my strongest suit. There for I have to be on top of my game more so then I would have to be for say a modern class or a jazz class. I have always had a lot of bad habits that I need to correct and get rid of, after Tuesdays workshop my eyes have been open to a whole new way of thinking about those habits. For example it is one thing to engage your center but it is a whole different thing to engage as well as lift up out of your pelvis and lengthen out. From the moment I step foot into the ballet room i have to mentally and physically prepare myself to "work" from start to finnish of each class. How else am I supposed to improve if I do not do so?
