Marvelous Monday Height


Marvelous Monday Height

Remember when you had your height measured when you were a child? Your mom or dad would take you to the wall or doorframe where previous measurements were documented in pencil. You were anxious to show that you had grown another inch, so you’d press your back against the wall and work hard to stretch upward.

This is a good feeling to remember when you are working on establishing good dance posture. Of course, the “up” should be up and slightly forward, with an accompanying energy down, but the general feeling is correct.

Feel like you are being measured!

From the Big Blue Book of Ballet Secrets
Secret #1bbb:
“Imagine the feeling of stretching upward when having your height measured.”
