It's amazing what goes into making something effortless.

"No performance is a perfect performance but some performances allow for the feeling of perfection. Achieving this moment of ecstasy easily validates all the pain and struggle of the art form by taking us, and possibly our audience, for a moment to a world beyond our own."

Audition Tips 

Aug 14th at 10PM / tagged: tips. ballet. dance. / 332 notes

  • If not stated to wear black, wear an interesting leotard color. Remember that ultra light colors might make you look wider but a nice red, dark green or purple will help you stand out in a sea of black leotards.
  • Make sure your hair, leotard, tights, and shoes are performance worthy.
  • Do not suck up to the auditioner ever.
  • Listen intently the whole time and know the combinations and attempt to perform them flawlessly.
  • If a correction is given this means that you are in the running. Make the correction as given and you’re in. Ignore the correction and you’re out.
  • Always arrive early and get a low audition number.
  • If you make a mistake do not stop dancing. Recovering gracefully is a good skill to learn young.
  • Do not over think. Dance like you love to dance and you will stand out in a great way.
  • Always thank the auditioner after the audition.

    This actually applies to other dance auditions as well, I think. Except for the leotards, but the rest yeah, pretty much
