This is the course blog for Ballet 411.05 in the Ohio State University Department of Dance for fall quarter, 2011.

Lately I have struggling with putting all of my energy into my dance in class. I find myself putting a lot of thought into each movement, but somewhere between all of that thought and its execution seems to be a disconnect. I truly appreciate this class and the way it makes me want to dance to my fullest potential all the time, not just in ballet. Therefore, my goal for the last half of the quarter is to find a way to constantly push myself to dance full out at all times in all of my classes.

That's great Crystal, especially since that will only help you. Going that extra distance, working those feet harder, guiding your focus up and out along with your limbs, will show you where you really are in your technique. If you're leg really square? Is the push and pull just right? Where is your back in relation to your arms? All of these are easily answered when we allow our bodies to truly perform the movement.
