And trust me on this, you are not too old to advance beyond your younger dancing self. Obviously you have the desire, and the dedication as well.<br /><br />Anyway,if you are talking about my 17 years of dance you have to subtract the years you already got to dance! Might I remind you again that I missed out on ballet classes as a child/Johannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06703652246667999345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6620316363664400359.post-47669497782613704112011-07-04T23:19:29.057+03:002011-07-04T23:19:29.057+03:00Bead 109 -

We are continuosly learning new suff, while doing maintenance on everything that has come before. <br /><br />That´s why I never take my ballet for granted. The moment I start feeling the least bit complacent, you can come and kick my butt back in line. :)Johannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06703652246667999345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6620316363664400359.post-1292295078906976752011-07-04T22:27:07.183+03:002011-07-04T22:27:07.183+03:00You are right, it is fun to get a prewiew!

You are a great example and motivator to us, but I am slighty envious too, I must admit :) I am counting how old will I be in 17 yrs, and keep kicking my self that I didn't do my ballet comeback a decade ago when I took some occasional classes... I don't reegret anything in my life except that I gave up ballet when I was young :(<br />Oh well, I&Aijanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6620316363664400359.post-65538323286556476202011-07-04T21:26:48.839+03:002011-07-04T21:26:48.839+03:00Yeah, it keeps you on your toes!
