Mad Monday Ears
I’ve talked about ears before, because focusing on the ears can be helpful, particularly for good posture.
A common malady for many dancers is the Dropped
Chin Syndrome. This is often caused by looking at the floor which is often caused by
a lack of confidence. It is an unfortunate cascading series of events. Whew!
A simple fix for all these things is to think about your ears, and say to
yourself: “Ears up and back”. Almost immediately, everything else will improve.
Keeping the energy in the ears up
prevents looking down, and a backward energy keeps the head and spine centered.
“Ears up and back!”
From the Big
Blue Book of Ballet Secrets
Secret #1fff:
