I never thought I would say this... but coming back to ballet after many years feels liberating! I am so ready to leave the trauma of my dance past behind, move my body the way it was trained to move, and do so without judgment and without stress. Ballet now feels healing and therapeutic, it feels like home. Ballet is a part of me, like a limb, and I need it to feel complete. My life experiences with ballet and yoga and now the
creation of Sculpere have demonstrated how life can come full circle and bring you back to balance.
There are dancers all over the city who have been repressing their need for ballet like I was. Classes often are not welcoming to new student, and everyone is intimidated to start up again. Sculpere is a safe place for dancers, yogis, and all to work on both their bodies and their minds. I believe the work we do at Sculpere, will effect the negative culture of ballet and possibly remove some of the discriminating standards of the ballet world. I hope every girl who walks into Sculpere's warm and friendly studio leaves with a deep sense of self love, acceptance, and a few new friends!
