Ballet Lessons

I took ballet for a few years when I was young, but I quickly moved onto playing soccer and wearing combat boots and work boots to school. I grew up right in the middle of the punk movement in Washington, DC, so the ideal feminine look involved a rough edge. Ballet and cheerleading and the love of the color pink did not come into my life until I became a mother.

So, now I have a daughter and she is all about pink and princesses and growing up to become a cheerleader. I spent the afternoon calling around to dance studios to look for the right place to put her in for ballet lessons. I think I may begin her at one of the community centers. The cost is less and that way she can see if she really likes the dance, excels in it, before I commit to expensive monthly fees being deducted from my checking account – which is how some of the top schools in the area insist you pay.
