Wild Wednesday Pearls
Well, here it is Valentine’s Day! I
wonder what surprises await you today. Candy? Flowers? Jewelry? Perhaps a
string of pearls. Now that I mention it, a string of pearls is a handy postural
image.
Imagine the spine as a string of pearls,
secured at the bottom by a knot. Now imagine the knot coming apart, allowing
the pearls to slide down the string, slowly – putting increasing space between
each pearl. This will help you feel the elongation of the spine so necessary
for good posture in ballet.
Have a Happy Valentine’s Day!
From the Big
Blue Book of Ballet Secrets
Secret #1qqq:
“Imagine the spine as a string of pearls.”

Quote of the Day:
“After
all," Anne had said to Marilla once, "I believe the nicest and
sweetest days are not those on which anything very splendid or wonderful or
exciting happens but just those that bring simple little pleasures, following
one another softly, like pearls slipping off a string.”
― L.M. Montgomery, Anne of Avonlea
