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!

“im a dancer! what college do you go to and do you have any suggestions for a young dancer? I'm 14 and started pointe last month. i do Ballet Jazz and occasionally hip hop and modern.”
-tangled-in-the-stars

I went to the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee, which has an amazing modern dance program.

As for suggestions, it seems like you’re really well-rounded in terms of dance styles. I’d recommend taking more modern dance classes along with ballet, as the freedom of movement in modern can really help your ballet, and modern provides a lot of strengthening, as it often involves parts of the body ballet uses only aesthetically.

What are your goals for dance? Do you want to go professional? Are you interested in choreography? How frequently do you have dance classes?

I’d love to help you out more if I could know more about your dance plans. <3
