✨Tonight is about the Royal Danish Ballet taking ✨Tonight is about the Royal Danish Ballet taking back the stage! The persistence, driven and continuous hard-work that it has taken to get Mahler up and ready to go onstage for the SECOND time is finally getting to premiere tonight!👏This ballet is a huge team effort so when that final curation comes down... I’ll be smiling for the person to my right as he got to do what he loves again, and smiling for the person to my left and ALL the people surrounding me including the ones that can’t be seen working backstage! ♥️ We are back! ✨I couldn’t be happier or more proud to be out there with all of my fellow artists! 🤩 The night is ours! ✨ Huge shout out to all of our biggest supporters that carried us through this second lockdown! @kasperholten @nikolajhubbe @clairestillhenriksen @blackcurrent2000 @stacycaddell 🙏 We are lucky to have you 😘 and of course to John Neumeier, thank you for your ballet and giving us these steps to dance tonight! - #mahler #takingbackthestage #imcomingout #comeback #stageready #thenightisours #ballet #johnneumeier #mahlerthirdsymphony #performancetime #imexcited #nomorecoronablues

✨If you had told me that after lockdown I would ✨If you had told me that after lockdown I would be dancing Grand Pas and doing all the releves on my little right foot... 🦶 I probably would’ve giggled in your face. 😁 Every dancer has gone through an injury on some level at some point in their career. For me it has been twice that my right foot has been overworked to the point that I couldn’t even walk. I never really got a clear answer of what was wrong but with some fantastic help I got back each time. Out of being careful with my right foot and having sympathy towards it for having worked so hard... It became normal for me to skip some releves at the barre on the right side to make sure it stayed healthy and didn’t get overworked. In Grand Pas the girl has the infamous releve diagonal in her variation that traditionally is done on the right foot. When I started rehearsals... I honestly didn’t know if my foot could do it. Especially everyday for several weeks. 😳 So the reason why this diagonal has become something I’m very proud of is because my little foot is feeling stronger then ever. I had to build the diagonal... I was smart and spoke up to my coach @nikolajhubbe about my concerns. We created a plan to tackle the diagonal. ✨It still is a very hard sequence and of course there is always room for improvement but for me it was a triumph! My fear that my little right foot wasn’t strong is now gone! I couldn’t be happier for getting the challenge to dance Grand Pas Classique.😃 I don’t think I would’ve ever stopped doubting my little foot and now I think of him as a minutiae super hero! 👩🏻‍🎤 We all have our own little triumphs to tackle! Be proud of reaching that goal and the work, fear and doubts you had to work through to get there. 💪 - - Video: @maku_marcin Filmed during a rehearsal. ✨ - #grandpasclassique #personaltriumph #workthroughthedoubt #neverstopdreaming #ballerina #ballet #classicalballet #releves #tackleyourfears #worldwideballet #iloveballet #balletchallenge
Yea... putting on a tutu and a beautiful tiara doe Yea... putting on a tutu and a beautiful tiara doesn’t change the fact that ballet is hard and some days it’s harder than others! 🙃Before I let my mind go into a complete “you are a failure” mindset... I had to stop 🛑 my negative thoughts and tell myself... Your little right foot is working really hard and is doing great! ✨Don’t let your ambition of high legs ruin your placement and become an obsession for this diagonal. There are more important things! ✨Use this rocky moment to learn from it... Study it. Find the mistakes and breathe.... that was today. You did it yesterday and you’ll do it tomorrow! Grand Pas Classique, I’ve got a plan...here I come! 😌 ✨We all have days where things don’t quite work as we want them too. (And usually those aren’t the moments we share on social media 😉) The cloud of negativity and picking ourselves apart is where the mind often goes but that ain’t gonna help anything. We have to stop those thoughts, breathe, and create constructive thoughts that will enable us to tackle it all again with enthusiasm and grit! 😘 We’ve got this! - - #noteverydayisagoodday #trytryagain #innergrit #dontstoptrying #grandpasclassique #balletishard #supporteachother #balletishard
