#Ballet Focus

[embryoed]

Ermm I found this on Reddit and idk how reliable this is but….

If there is an episode actually titled “Binary Brother” you won’t be hearing from me again bc I’d start tweaking so hard I collapse and start coughing up blood and die

Like an episode titled after Hawk/Eli and Demetri??? So many possibilities there.. (*chanting in the distance going “HEATED CONVERSATION ABOUT EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED IN SEASONS 2 AND 3 WITH INTENSE (MAYBE GAY) TENSION”*)

Maybe I’m just being delusional over something that is most likely false information but I had to share this with someone I can’t they make me so sick

(Also I swear I saw a post on here of a tweet of one of the ck guys saying there’s gonna be an episode named after them??? Am I going crazy???)

(^^^ UPDATE IT WAS THIS POST HOLY SHIT I’M BOUNCING OFF THE WALLS SOMEBODY SEDATE ME)

This week (24.06.-30.06.), I felt inspired to try something new: A selection of workouts inspired by the masterpiece that is Shōjo Kakumei Utena. The inspiration here wasn't the body image of 90s Shōjo, but rather the ways the characters move. The idea was to pretend that I was preparing to fight those hyper mannerist duels. Since I'm very limited in what I can do at home (no kendo, no fencing, not even basketball...) AND since the duels themselves are metaphorical kaleidoscopes of dance, fencing and freudian shenanigans, I picked a selection that combines factors that would go into this way: focusing on strength, flexibility and endurance, as well as balance, grace and control.

I forgot how good ballet is

I personally headcanon that before he started to use magic and wore himself out Mikey would dance ballet to relieve himself of the stress. Casey Jr saw him do it one day and asked him to teach him, and so he knows how to ballet. I’m going to manifest this into canon by sheer willpower.

PSA

I do not support disordered eating, I will not interact with posts if I see it, and I’ll probably block you if you put it in the tags reblogging from me

this is a Health At Every Size blog, this is a pro recovery blog, this is a body positive blog; we’re here for every body that does ballet is a ballet body; we do not need to measure ourselves against professionals

and if you are on a professional track…

have you noticed how those same professional ballerinas are speaking out more and more about how unhealthy those standards are, how it almost ended their careers (do you know how much more easily and severely you can get injured from malnutrition? how much slower it will be to heal?), how miserable it made them, how it made them want to stop dancing, how some actually have retired before their time because of it (forced or quit)…

an eating disorder will not make you a better dancer.

look up Sick Enough by Jennifer Gaudiani, she’s not a therapist, she’s a doctor and she tells you what it’s physically doing to your body, how quickly it happens, how to fix it, and importantly, that

an eating disorder is a behavior, not a body type

you are sick enough to deserve to be taken seriously, you are sick enough to deserve help
