I am proud that I am now able to do this because as a Junior I was not able to and it just shows the growth from my Junior year to my senior year. I think that I need to work on really closing my fifth position after every jump and really getting my heels down. I also think that I can get up higher if I use my pie more.

I think that I need to improve on really holding my landings after the pirouettes now because I tend to just hit the position and move on. I think that if I used my pie 
more throughout the combination that I would have been able to hold these landings better.]]> 2016-10-25 20:15:58 UTC https://padlet.com/mrv4vasquez/nx5u937clmi3/wish/133163457 mrv4vasquez https://padlet.com/mrv4vasquez/nx5u937clmi3/wish/133163537 I think that today I struggled a little bit with my focus due to all of the stress of college and many of my other obligations. I looked a little lost in the combination throughout the middle. I need to work on forgetting what is going outside of the classroom and just living in the moment. From watching the video it can be said that I need to work on sustaining and really taking my time to lower down my leg from the battements in the center. I rushed them and it wasn't as controlled as I would have liked them to have been.]]> 2016-10-25 20:16:17 UTC https://padlet.com/mrv4vasquez/nx5u937clmi3/wish/133163537 mrv4vasquez https://padlet.com/mrv4vasquez/nx5u937clmi3/wish/133163563 I think that by watching my video from today that I worked hard in class. I really was trying my best to control everything and to sustain my movements rather than to just rush through them. I was able to do four controlled pirouettes because of this. I think that if I would have smiled more throughout the combination that it would have just added to it and would have made it ten times better. I need to work more on my performance quality throughout Ballet

I need to start smiling more because I know that I am enjoying the combination but I don't look like I am. I also think that I need to pointe through my entire foot more throughout my glissades. Lastly, I think that I need to work on fully closing my fifth position. I think that my pirouette was beautiful but I need still need to pay more attention to the tension in my hands and closing my ribs.
