Made it through the first cut of the Rockettes (but was then quickly aware that the one track they were looking for was either much taller or much shorter than my middling height of 5'7 and 1/2).
Importantly, it was the first audition in a long time where I have felt absolute calm and total agency over my body. It was AMAZING. Such a fabulous reminder of how much I enjoy dancing...
Later in the afternoon I followed the lovely Liz to A Christmas Story audition, because I figured, why the hell not? The choreography was super fun and flirty and coquettish, which is apparently right up my alley. The choreographer was staring at me the whole time, which was exciting in of itself.
Of course both of these auditions have contracts that would conflict with the Met Opera scheduling, but I'm glad that I used my first day off in a month to continue honing my auditioning technique... Not to mention these dance calls were the equivalent of a free dance class!
Unfortunately three people in a row said that I am looking quite lean. DARN! And I was working so hard on weight lifting in heavy weights with low reps. Tomorrow I'll have to talk with my total body conditioning teacher and see if we can amend the situation asap. So glad to have a knee that I can trust to participate with me when I work out on it!
Sending lots of love out into the universe,
