Summer GoalsSummer Goals

Last ballet class last night until September! I have started grade 6 and have learned the free movement already, including the study! Looks as if I'll be doing grade 6 next year, then!

My goal over the summer: Improve my pointe work.

And also break in my pointe shoes...Even though I've had them for like...6 months! So I desperately need to do that.

For pointe work I want to be able to dance for a reasonable time AWAY from the bar, and not seem like I'm gripping on for dear life at the bar...You should see me, seriously!

Also I want to be way, way more flexible so I'm going to force myself to stretch for an hour every day- whenever I can, really! I really badly want my splits.

I am seriously going to work on my running too, ready for the cross-country season October. I missed last year's cross-country season because I had to rest due to a foot injury.

Also I want to be stronger so I will be doing Cassey's workouts every day!

SO, to recap my Summer Goals:-

• Break in my pointe shoes
• Improve my pointe work- being able to dance for a reasonable time en pointe; confident away from the bar
• Improve my flexibility- closer to the splits (and also closer to doing a needle, tilt and many moves I can't do now due to bad flexibility) 
• Work hard on my running, get my stamina and endurance up
• Do the blogilates workouts every day
• Healthier diet

And also, be sure to check out the updated version of my stretches on my stretches page, and try out the different smoothies, drinks and shakes on my smoothie page!
