At least you can do pointe, Hirilaelin. I have weak ankles and so after only six months of pointe, my teacher wouldn't let me take pointe anymore. I also have to admit that I'm not that flexible (it is rare times that I can do the splits).
Unfortunately, I had bad training as a dancer and it wasn't until 2 1/2 years ago that I realized this. Since then, I have been told by others that I have improved greatly and I have been proud of myself for this.
My sister has been my inspiration for dance. I began dancing because she was dancing first and I always tryed to imitate her when I was little. When she was my age (14), she was not that strong of a dancer, but now she is completely amazing. She could dance professionally on Broadway or in one of those Fosse shows if she wanted to.
Wow....look how much I rambled on about dance. Sorry, all you non-dancers. I guess I tend to get carried away at times.
