More often than not in your ballet classes, the focus is always on technique and progressing through each different exercise.

However, for a moment, I want you to think about your audience.

Who are you performing to? Why do people love dance so much?

For a ballet company like San Francisco Ballet, they perform as many as 100 shows per year to different audiences.

If you find yourself getting tied down with technique or frustrated with pirouettes, then think about the audience.

You mustn't forget the purpose and ultimate drive in ballet, which is to perform and dance for the pure enjoyment.

Best wishes,
