first real ballet class

Opa and oma gave lilja ballet classes for x-mas.. what an amazing gift !! She was so excited and could not sleep the night before . When we arrived she introduced herself : hi , I am Lilja, I am from a tribe ...so cute !! I was unfortunately not allowed in the class, but you could see outside. They went right into some techniques of her arms and she had to introduce herself and show the teacher she knew what a plie was. She did great ! Then they did more fun dancing with scarves stuff, then back into technique . The teacher seemed really good with about 15 6 year Olds .. lilja wished it was balket day every day . I hope she will love it just like I did for 15 years !!

The scarf dance 

Waiting for directions .. is she looking big to you ??

She had to show the teacher that she knew first position with her feet and a plie .. she remembered !! 

A little nervous .. but oh so excited 

Oh yes, there is the nervous smile ;))
