What is so hard about remembering to bring your BATON to BATON class?! Think about where you're going!

Please don't give me 101 excuses why you can't do something that you haven't even tried yet! And for those things you're not good at, yeah - that's why I asked you to practice. How do you expect to get better and advance as a dancer if you only want to practice the stuff you can already do?!

Do NOT whine about how tired/sore you are. I don't care. You are in class so you are going to work. Oh, you're arms are tired from class yesterday? I'm sorry - I've been teaching 4+ hours tonight with a pulled calf muscle and I'm not complaining. Suck it up.
