HA! Yes. I ballet-ed it up for about 10 years, 10 years ago. My posture has absolutely gone to pot in the interim unless I get the urge to stick my nose in the air.
I used to do some modern dance too, but I could never get the hang of it. Ballet is really modern's antithesis, and I could never get over the fact that the teacher WANTED me to pop my hip out. I spent years learning to always keep it tucked under!
A hot bath w/ equal parts Epsom salts, baking soda, & sea salt works wonders for me. I use a cup of this mixture to a tub of water, & soak for 10-20 mins.
I need to try this tonight - my thighs still feel like I went at them with a meat tenderizer mallet and maybe even cut little slits to insert whole cloves of garlic too.
I was in a store today and had to crouch down to get something off the bottom shelf and I almost cried trying to squat down to the floor and nearly oculdn't get back up. When did my thighs get so lame?!
I would also like to come see you again soon - I had meant to earlier, but my digestive tract had different plans for me unfortunately. At least the weather is getting better, so then I can just bike down to Davis!
