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!

Haha, this kind of sums up my reception today, for in-store yoga. (Minus that I was the newbie there). Also, their 40DD sports bra I tried on did nothing to contain my 40DD breasts… Clearly they’re not ready for my jelly.

This is interesting. It seems like more and more companies are shooting themselves in the foot because they won’t accept that a wide variety of people may be interested in their products. Also, the questions brought up in the original post are thought-provoking.

“Gimme five, bra!” I mumble excitedly from dancer pose.
Unfortunately, I’m staring into the mirror (and not the eyes of the bra I purport to beckon), there’s no one else in the room, and my outstretched hand won’t be high-fived for days - maybe even weeks.

Bow Pose

Come to lie on your belly, and take a few deep breaths.
Once you’re ready, bend your knees and hold onto the outside edge of your right ankle and then your left. Once you have a firm hold of each ankle, try to keep your toes together, either pointing or flexing your feet. Lift your feet up as high as you can and shift your weight forward so you’re resting on your naval instead of on your pubic bone.
Hold for five deep breaths and then slowly release.


I love this pose.

Working on my bridges to improve my back flexibility. It’d’ve been easier had the floor not been so slippery.

Last night during my stretching class, I held crow pose for a good 5 seconds. Sure, that’s not much, but it’s longer than I’ve ever done it before.
