Part of the joy of staying with
my family in France
is sharing their
day to day activities.
One such activity is "looking in"
on the girl's weekly
ballet lesson.

Ballet is a wonderful discipline
for girls.
It teaches them
graceful movement
beautiful carriage
and deportment.
A love of the arts.
Be kind to one another

Reading your post reminded me of many happy years taking my grandson to ballet class.
ReplyDeleteHe went on to have lessons with The Royal Ballet and dance with The National Youth Ballet amongst others.
A very happy time!!

Ah! this is a beautiful post Shane .... France and ballet go together so perfectly .... how wonderful that you can spend time with family while soaking up that delightful French culture.
ReplyDeleteI love the sight of those little ballerina's. my granddaughter used to dance when she was a little girl. Than she did street dance( I think) and how she is busy with field hockey. As long as they do sports they are alright. Have a nice week.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful post Shane...of course you miss that !!...love from me...xxx..
ReplyDeleteSweet photos of the ballet lessons and concert bring back happy memories of my own daughters' and grand daughter's dancing days. Our second daughter still enjoys dancing classes (not ballet) and we go to theatrical productions together now and again.
ReplyDeleteHave a peaceful,creative week!

I love that shot of the girls in their ballet outfits sitting together on the floor! Adorable! My 3 year old has her first class this week! Hope their performance was wonderful for both you and them!!!
ReplyDeleteDearest Shane,
ReplyDeleteBallet is a great way for girls to learn how to move graceful! Hope you get enough photos and videos so you still can be with them... It is hard for living that far away.
Hugs to you,
Mariette
How incredibly sweet, Shane. Little ballet dancers, is there anything cuter? Hope you are well, xo Rhonda
ReplyDeleteBrings back memories of when my daughter did this. Thanks for that. The girls ars so sweet.
ReplyDeleteHow delightful to have two grand-daughters who learn ballet. Your photos are so pretty, and precious. I hope you get to visit them again soon.
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful pics of charming children. x
ReplyDeletewhat adorable photos Shane. Although it's too bad you live so far away from each other it is nice that you can still make trips to France on occasion and capture special moments like these.
ReplyDeleteShane, I loved this post!
ReplyDeleteLast night I watched a program on the Knowledge network about a group trying to authenticate a painting believed to be by Degas (it turned out it was!) and through the show they discussed several of his paintings. I love his work, and the ballet and your post delighted me so much - thank you!
Hello dear Shane,
ReplyDeleteI loved ballet!! Sometimes, when passing by my old ballet school, I can't help myself but to have a peak inside :)
I'm happy for you that you can spend some time with your dear family so far away.
hugs, Wendy
how perfectly sweet and lovely in every way dear Shane...
ReplyDeletewhat a delight your tiny dancers are oxo

ReplyDeleteDear Shane,

I also enjoy coming with Mathilde to dance-not ballet, but dance - to see the improovements she is doing ,and to just a little bit be a part of her daily life. You took some lovely photoes, dear.
Hugs, Dorthe
That is such a gorgeous collage you created with your two Prima Donnas!
