      That's why I think Eva, the lady who does photography for master ballet academy, is SO talented. She has some dance knowledge prior, and is also now taking ballet, so she is able to use terms and moves the dancers understand in order to pose them perfectly for the pictures, and her ballet photos are STUNNING.

      ​@@heehoopeanut420she does what the video is outlining too though, so it's not wrong but it's good for the photography. I bet most dance photographers know at least the terms they use for ballet.

    Do you wear your tights over or under your leotard? Also I have seen some girls (kids) some teens and a few women wear basic pantyhose instead of real dance tights when in class. One of the women and two teen agers (females) were wearing control top pantyhose over their leotards. Do you think this look is ok?

    • @AlignFitnessByAllie
      @AlignFitnessByAllie หลายเดือนก่อน

      I’ve worn my tights both ways. I think people should wear what makes them feel comfortable. Most kids will have a dress code to follow at their studio and some allow tights over the leotard

  • @delphinedean7569
    @delphinedean7569 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Hi Allie! I love the video 😊 thank you for the “wear what makes you comfortable” message! I just wanted to mention that as a 5’10” adult-shaped person, élève is one of the few brands that has a long enough girth (leotard length) to fit well on me. Other leotard brands get wider with increasing size but they don’t get appreciably longer. Because of that, most leotards either give me a wedgie or do a weird tenting thing in my lower back that makes me look bigger than I am. My small piece of advice for folks who might have trouble finding leotards that fit is also to look at one of the several great custom leotard makers on Etsy. Those are nice because they will make them to your measurements and honestly, they aren’t any more expensive than eleve or lucky leos…

    • @AlignFitnessByAllie
      @AlignFitnessByAllie หลายเดือนก่อน

      That is so good to know! I actually have a really long torso! You and I very well could be the same girth. Haha! Now that you mention it, I remember that the girth length was always an issue for me. Really good info for anyone reading.

    Danced for 11-12 years. Out for about 10, in regard to serious dancing. I taught some beginner classes for a year about 7 years ago but wasn’t dancing like I did growing up. I have my first class tomorrow as an adult student, going into a beginner class. Also, as an adult who has had multiple injuries the past 5-10 yrs (since stopping dancing, funny but not funny). This was so helpful. I’ve been stressing about how do I prepare, how do I help myself feel ready? Dancer brain is real and it’s cruel. Also I’m just nervous that warm ups will make me hyperventilate and I’ll look a fool 😂 Anyway, hearing your experience was comforting. Thank you for sharing! ❤
