Ballet Class Wisdom

Midway through second position plies--"other side"--Wendy addresses the entire class with one of her classic (half jesting, half serious) reprimands: "Use all the music! Don't think you can donate the counts to another part of class." This sends me into a fit of giggles, though the Chopin rambles on, undisturbed.

Wendy Diamond teaches Fridays at 11:30 and Saturday mornings at 9:30. She is an excellent--sassy and no-nonsense--instructor. (And some say that her pianist is equally fabulous.)
