The ballet hole.

I miss ballet.

We're taking the month of July off, because many of the little girls are on vacation, so my teacher wanted a vacation, too.

As for me...not so much.

When I took a couple of weeks off to go to the US in April, it seemed to be good for my body. My hip had been hurting, and the two weeks allowed its recovery without losing the progress I'd made. With a month off, I'm nervous I'll go back in August and find myself in the same ballet mess I was in when I started in January.

I've been doing a few of the exercises, but it's just not the same when you're holding on to the back of the couch and moving your feet in time to the silence and the vague memory of the music in your head.
