backonpointeI am not on Pinterest!
Please read my FAQ before sending me a question.



I'm a college student and a dancer, and I'm working to lose weight, gain muscle, become more fit... and help others do the same!

My Ask Box is always open to questions, suggestions, or if you just need to talk. If you'd like something to be answered privately, just let me know in the message. (Note: anonymous questions cannot be answered privately.)

I track the "backonpointe" tag!

bapgeek replied to your post: bapgeek replied your post Back On…

i danced from ages 2-32 and i never heard the term. its completely made up. grrrr.

I wouldn’t say that. I have been called a bunhead jokingly by my old ballet teacher. It’s just not nearly as common as the books and TV shows would like you to think.

bapgeek replied your post Back On Pointe Fans? Bapfs? Nah…
whatever you do, please don’t call us bunheads.

Hadn’t even occurred to me. Too few of my readers are dancers, and it’s become such an overused term.

I’m working on my first-ever food review! It’s of Barre: a real food bar, an item I was looking for for years before I finally found a store that sold them.

Back On Pointe Fans? Bapfs? Nah…

On my walk today I was thinking about you. Yes, you. My readers. The people who tell me about their workouts, who share this blog with friends, who ask their questions in the Back On Pointe Fitocracy group, who check in to this blog every day to get inspired.

And I realized that I don’t know what to call you.

When I talk to people, I call you my “readers.” But that’s boring. “Fans” sounds stuck-up and is so vague.

I want a name for the amazing group of you that is unique. A name we could put on t-shirts to recognize each other at the gym. A name for the awesome group of teenagers, students, dancers, parents, and everyone else who are striving towards wellness one step at a time.

So, do you have any ideas?

“That's neat, have you ever visited before moving? my best friends live there and I'm up in dallas that's why I'm curious because if you haven't visited there's so much fun stuff and there's this park (that I can't think of the name right now) that I went to once and I saw your post about going on a walk and I feel like you'd love this park it's beautiful and I went there last time to watch the sun rise with some friends (but it's actually better to watch the sunset because it's facing west.)”

I haven’t been there, but my boyfriend and my roommate were out there a few months ago for a conference. They say it’s very similar to the city I’m from, so I’m excited. And there are parks everywhere! I’m hoping to have a big party in the Zilker Metropolitan Park!

“what part of ATX are you moving to?”
-bbygirlimablur

Right now we’re looking at the northwestern area, kinda around what Google Maps tells me is West Lake Hills? But we don’t have an apartment there yet. We’ll be staying with a friend in Austin while we visit a couple places we’re interested, pick one, and sign our lease.

“This is random, but what kind of pointe shoes do you wear? :)”
-Anonymous

Not so random, and I realized that this should actually be in my FAQ, so I’m going to add it now!

But I use Grishko 2007s. I wear a size 6.5, 5X because I have massive feet, with a medium shank.
