Thanks for the wonderful advice. She is now up to 3 classes a week and still can’t get enough of ballet. She will be attending a ballet school in our area with a partial scholarship this fall and will be taking summer classes. Her teacher where she is now is retiring . Our daughter is very sad about it but her teacher has told us that she will continue to follow her progress because she is good friends with the school director. Maybe someday with many more years of hard work and a continued love of ballet, I may get to report her dream of playing Odette. She would love to hear your stories of being a professional dancer.

Thanks so much for your blog. I just stumbled on it today and have enjoyed reading it. I’ve been taking lessons for about 4 years and found myself connecting to your posts. I think your perspective is very valuable and would like to link your blog to mine if it’s OK with you!
I’m sure the other people at my studio would enjoy it as well. Your dedication is very inspiring.

I am a professional ballet dancer. I studied for many years and started at the age of 7. Until I was about 12 years old my parents paid for my lessons averaging 2 a week. Then I received my first scholarship to attend a ballet company school. You audtion for these spots and if the company affiliated with the school thinks you have talent they will offer you to come to their school and give you some sort of scholarship to defray the costs. I usually received a full scholarship because those schools thought I had a high likelihood of becoming a ballet dancer. If your child has talent you can usually get scholarships to large company schools and this the way you become a professional ballet dancer not by staying at the local dance school.
