My name is Sydney and I have always ...Hello Aesha,<br /><br />My name is Sydney and I have always been such a big fan of yours. I have known about you for a long time and I wish I would of known you had a blog sight. This article is so beautiful. I love finding other dancers who love ballet as much as I do. I am a black ballerina and I was struggling for the longest time with excepting myself being a tall, black ballet dancer. But reading your blog as put a smile on my face and has reminded me again, as ballet does everyday, why I do what I do.<br /><br />I just started learning serenade on friday at my summer intensive and I was talking to my mom about how much i just have such a love for the music. The music is why I love ballet so much. I get to show my love of music through dance. sometimes my love for it is so vast in my heart I cry, because I have found something so beautiful. <br /><br />Through the past couple of years I have worked with extreme passion at becoming the best ballerina I can be but, I always get rejected for being to tall or too different. But I just brush it off and keep working hard. I have had many rough days but I love ballet to much to quit. I am about to be a senior in high school and I have been to many ballet summer intensives and I am just going to keep pushing for one day to be that ballerina in a company and showing the audience my love for the music and this beautiful art.Sydney Duncannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6671270451045812775.post-1217067519473634662011-05-09T11:54:22.406-07:002011-05-09T11:54:22.406-07:00Hello Opal,

Most of my career was spent at NYCB and we were not allowed to video. <br /><br />I love and can appreciate ALL forms of dance. My dream would be to take up Tango as well as Flamenco, but life is just a bit too busy for that right now ;-) Maybe in the near future.Aesha Ashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02564261871306909541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6671270451045812775.post-35981345190256476192011-05-06T15:45:22.623-07:002011-05-06T15:45:22.623-07:00Hello--

Also I'm wondering if you dabble in other styles or are you strictly a ballerina?? I'm a salsa and belly dancer myself. <br /><br />Stay Solid,<br />OpalOpalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15665261657300763448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6671270451045812775.post-58564130350147114202011-05-05T11:29:58.435-07:002011-05-05T11:29:58.435-07:00Beautifully written!
