YAY!!!!!!! Thanks a bunch!!!!!!!

yay!! I'm excited about this haha

IM GOING ON POINTE AT LAST!
and im getting my pointe shoes today!(:
WOOOHOOOOO!
im so excited!!!!

^ Yay you!

You're going on pointe, I'm doing pre-pointe

I have been dancing for almost 11 years! (since I was 3)'I am very proud and I can't wait to hear the other achievements!

I THINK this is an achievement! I am on my 4th pair of pointes, but I broke the shank of my first pair that didn't have redwood in them by DANCING in them, not by breaking them in!! Is that an achievemnet??

After 3 months of pointe I just got moved up to intermadite pointe . Grade 3 to 4 checctti.

I get my pointe shoes this wednesday!!!!!!!
I am ssss oooo excited!!!!

It has been awhile now since I got my pointe shoes, and I have my double en pointe, fouette ronde jambes, and italian fouettes!!! Oh yeah, I also got my toe hops thanks to a harder shank.

Such a good idea! I am glad there is place to celeibrate accomplishments and for people to read and reply that understand what it takes to achieve leaps and bounds in Ballet. How exciting, Now I need to go and accomplish something new to post about and to celebrate here!

diddn't get accepted into SAB, this will make me work MUCH harder for next year.

I did a ton of awesome perfect fouettes en pointe!!!! We were taking a five minute break and so I was practicing and I just kept going and going!!! Everyone was standing around me and clapped and cheered when I stopped! I felt so great!! But then I turn and see my ballet teacher was starring at a wall the entire time...and missed the entire thing...:( I was devastated. BUT STILL THRILLED THAT I NAILED MY FOUETTES!!!!

Well, that's a great idea:) Ok, for mine, I just started pointe, and me and one other girl were the only ones that were strong enough from our big pre-pointe class:)
Yay for me:)

Awww that stinks:( Well congrats anyway:)

I did 5 pirouettes on pointe!!!!

I got Arabian lead! But I can't do it because I got injured

I nailed my turns from 5th from the diagonal EN POINTE! On both sides! I had never tried them before and that's huge for me! I have only been dancing en pointe for not even a year! WOOHOO

I'm going into my 3rd year of dancing and I'm the youngest in my entire class since I'm in the highest level that consist of college kids and 1-2 ballet company dancers. I'm the only student that has a scholarship

I'm blessed to be able to dance in tough times
