Ballet

As I said before, I like ballet. I like to watch ballet and also dance it. I have been taking ballet lessons since I was four. My mother liked ballet, so she took me to the ballet school.
When I was a little, I was so shy that I couldn't dance with other students. We often use a bar when lesson, but I took a lesson with a chair instead of it near my mother. But other older students were kind and introduced me to take a lesson with them, so I gradually took a lesson with them.
When I was in the elementaly school, I took ballet lessons three times a week. I really loved dancing ballet.
However, I quited it when I entered the junior high school. After that, when I was a high school student, I started ballet lesson again in the same school. I realized that I can't live without ballet.
Ballet is very beautiful and wonderful dance. It has no word, but we can understand the story.
I have watched many ballet performances, and I have been impressed by them. Even now, I take ballet lessons two times a week, though I am not so good dancer and I haven't been there so much recently.
I think ballet is very important for me. I like ballet music, like The Nutcracker, Swan lake, The sleeping beauty. I often listen to them when I go to school in the train.
My favorite ballerina is Miyako Yoshida. She studied abroad in England and became one of the top ballerina of the Royal ballet. I watched "Coppelia" in which Miyako Yoshida played main character. The performance was really wonderful. Do you know Tetsuya Kumakawa? He is very famous ballet dancer in Japan. He is famous for high jumping. I have never seen his performance directly, so I want to watch it sometime.
