Healthy Habits: The Art of Lunch
Bonjour Beautiful Things! Hopefully your weekend was full of twirls and whirls, leaps and bounds, baking sweet treats, scary movies, bright flowers, bike rides and prank phone calls!
Today we are discussing your favorite hour of the day: lunch! If you eat junk at noontime, you'll soon feel too drained to sparkle like a ballerina must! To master this matinée meal, a ballerina needs to plan ahead. Packing a lunch the night before will ensure enough time to wash fruit, chop veggies and spin up a killer sandwich or salad. Lunch should never be boring or bland. Think: colorful, fresh and fun!

Wear & Hair: Tutu Heaven
Nothing beats a dazzling tutu.
Last year, the National Ballet of Canada celebrated its 60th anniversary by gathering 60 stunning tutus in a collection called The Tutu Project. The exhibit included stunning vintage costumes, and tutus created by community organizations and partners and friends of the National Ballet. Divine designers and artists also contributed to the Project. The result: beyond lovely.
Throwback Thursday: Picasso Boogie
Iconic Spanish artist, Pablo Picasso adored dance, too! In the early 1900s he even created costumes and set designs for Serge Diaghilev's Ballet Russes Parade. The dancing painter also painted dancers, and even married a ballerina.
Most lovely Picasso quote: "Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life."
Créer/Create: Calling All Wild Things!
Now that we all have dancing animals on the brain, let's use these wonderful creatures as inspiration for new movement!
Choose one of the critters from yesterday's French Lesson and invent movement for this animal character. Use their honorary ballet step somewhere in your phrase. Express your creature character through little details- your head and hand placement, or your posture. Note what kind of movement you are using... small and quick, graceful and smooth, sneaky, showy, spastic?
Here's some wildly wonderful examples of animal characters from fabulous ballets:
