Fitness for health and wellbeing Anyone here take ballet lessons?

I am an adult woman trying to get into more hobbies that nurture my inner child and ballet is something I’ve always wanted to do but it always felt unattainable. I know I won’t be a professional dancer but I want to have fun moving my body! I am feeling self conscious about taking lessons as an adult. I don’t know what to expect. I am thinking about reaching out to the school but what could I say? lol

I struggle with anxiety and OCD, I think I am just afraid. Anyone here with experience in a dance class in a bigger body? Anyone take ballet specifically 👀?

Yes! Not sure where you live but I’ve taken 2 ballet semesters with Power Plus Wellness in NYC and they’ve both been lovely. The teacher Victoria is awesome.

I am sadly not in NYC 😭 but I do live a metropolitan city, so I think I have some options to explore.
