Dears, are there things that enchant you every time you see them? The ballet world does that to me. I find this type of artistic expression so stimulating and relaxing at the same time. The way the ballerinas move, creating impressive shapes with their bodies and the pointy toes - just remarkable. It's a beautiful world!
I could look at those photos for hours. Have you done ballet as a child? xoxo
Ps: Fancy a chit-chat? Join me on Twitter!

I danced ballet for a few months when I was 4! Alas, no motivation then I guess.
I love watching ballet and looking at photos of dancers. It's amazing what the body can do, beautifully!
it amazes me every time as well. when i was a kid, that's what i've wanted to be since i kept watching this cartoon, Dexter's Laboratory. :D
Gorgeous! I never did ballet but am thinking I would have loved it. xo
I am just swooning over these images. Beautiful!
Oh what beautiful shapes a trained body can make

Gorgeous! That's really one of my biggest regrets in life, that I gave up on ballet when I was little. If only I could go back in time...
Jemina...I always wanted to do ballet as a child but I did swimming instead too...
Have any of you tried adult ballet classes? I am thinking about it:)
Hi Dollie....I took Ballet as an adult and started years ago....LOVE LOVE it...I say go for it hunnie.....:)

There is something so magical about ballerinas!
Yes, I used to do ballet... and loved it, too. But unlike me my cousin never stopped learning and she now teaches (occasionally)!
i was a gymnast - so we had to incoporate ballet in some of our routines! but i wasn't graceful enough for ballet. ;)
girl you should totally take lessons!! :)
I love ballet! I did it for years as a child, would love to take it up again! These are gorgeous, love the juxtaposition of the elegance and the grit of the city! XX!
thank you for sharing! I love ballet photos. I grew up dancing and even majored in it in college. I teach now and I am always looking for inspirational photos. :o)
I love that first photo!
Unfortunately, I've never been to a ballet before, but can only imagine how beautiful it is!
Aaah, elegance personified!
And thanks for your sweet words dear, can't wait for Christmas :)
I did and used to dream of becoming a great prima ballerina... but drawing eventually won out, so now I'm an illustrator instead :) These are so elegant and graceful... make me want to take a few refresher classes just for fun!
Ballerinas are so graceful! Love these pictures. XX
I love ballet ! I agree with you it's stimulating and relaxing at the same time (very well put)
I've done ballet for 10 years and to me it's the best workout to help you look long, lean and graceful... I've already told V that we're going to see the Boston ballet this holiday season :)
sending you hugs and kisses from chilly Boston xx
Bestie, that is wonderful that your mom used to do ballet! Must be amazing watching her dance
Chapstick Fanatic...your grandma? That is amazing!
Pretty pretty pretty! These are gorgeous pics.

That is how I feel too, Sara...I really want to do it for fun and enjoy being more and more graceful with every move.
I did take ballet classes when I was a child, but I can not imagine now why I didn't like it that much back then.
Stunning pics!

You know my heart loves ballet! And I love this project- definitely am friends with them on Facebook.
Never did do ballet. Did just buy tickets to see the Nutcracker in December, looking quite forward to it. Love that second image.
I tried ballet but it was not for me :)Beautiful photos though!!
I've never done ballet but have always secretly wished I had at some point in my life. Those pictures are stunning.
I was once a ballet girl... alas my knees had other plans for me and opted out!
beautiful

I never did do ballet as a child but I wish I did, they are so graceful
Ballet does that to me too :)
I miss the days where I used to do ballet! =) It's so beautiful!!
This post just brought me back to my days as a little girl ballerina! :)
Liesl :)
No I didn't do ballet...did some jazz. But I would love for my little girl to give it a try! how fun.
i did ballet for 11 years. sometimes when i'm walking i just want to break out into a leap. but then people would think i'm more awkward than i am, haha.
when i hear classical music i always think of what exercise or part of class it would go best with. i miss it, but these pictures are so gorgeous.
I did ballet when I was a little girl, I still remember and love those memories :)
I love watching ballet - it's heartachingly beautiful. These pictures capture that magic :) (I love that they're outdoors!)
these are BEAUTIFUL! i want them framed all over my house!!
