Nerves are starting to kick in
So I was in the studio yesterday working on my piece and I realized that I only have a month until recital. One month. Five rehearsals. 5 hours. Let the freak out begin. I really feel like my dance is coming together well and I am starting to get way more confident with the technique and movements that are essential to this dance, but I still do not feel performance ready. Usually with this amount of time left I am feeling 100% confident and ready to get on the stage and perform already. This time is completely different. I still haven't performed this dance for anyone other than me and Rosalie.. and I think that is part of the reason I feel so unready. I have not had any other dancers see this dance, mostly because I want it to be somewhat of a surprise at recital and dress rehearsal when they see me do it for the first time. But I think I am going to have to do it in front of a couple girls on my team in order to get the reassurance that I am used to getting before a recital and before I debut a dance. Rosalie says that I should start coming in twice a week instead of just once when we get about two weeks out from the recital. This makes me feel way better because it will give me more time to work on the dance and because the second night I will be going to the studio is Thursday's when the team girls practice. This will let me run it by them before the day of recital comes! I am already starting to get the pre-performance anxiety and and jitters.. and it isn't even June! AHHHHH!
