Iron Cross is SRS BZNS!

I’m having WP issues this week. I wrote a dance-related post on Monday, but the editor kept locking up, and I got frustrated and never finished it — so I’m behind on that.

As you can see, I’m something like back in action, though not completely. I did make it all the way through Modern T’s class, which was a little less athletic than the previous two classes (probably because Modern T is also recovering from the Great Plague of 2016).

Today I made it most of the way through Ms. B’s Killer Class, though I had to bow out of medium and grand allegro, because I was too wheezy by the time I finished (or, well, sort of finished) petit allegro. C’est la vie, n’est-ce pas?

This made me sad, because our grand allegro combination was flat-out awesome — so Ms. B let me video it so we can do it at our next class after Spring Break. Yaaaay! (I don’t have permissions from my classmates to share that video, so apologies for that. Also, the camera work sucks :D)

I opted only to do trapeze tonight, and I think that was the right call.

Non-Ballet, Non-Bike Things

Finally taking a break to do a little drawing.   He’s a young Welsh section A stallion, partway finished.   He’s really just a sketch, but he’s turning out so well I rather wish I’d thought to give him a setting.   I suppose it’s not too late!

Zombies at Bikes ‘n’ Brews!

Denis suggested turning on the flash.  Maybe not such a great idea :D

Oh, and here are some ballet-themed zombie usses, just for kicks, courtesy of the inimitable Dave Crowell.

Apres Ballet

Apres Ballet

The nice lady at the front desk at LBS took this for us, which was totally lovely of her. If I was a better person, I might have some idea what her name is. I really should have pointed my foot and squared myself up and so forth … but, hey, it’s more ballet picture than I had before 😀

Oh, and here’s the goofier version. I have no idea what’s going on with my head:

But we were just playing around.

The number of things that are wrong with my arms in this picture cannot even be enumerated.
