Lexie Ahrens yay! Oh that's such a cool take on the nutcracker!! MERDE for your performances!! 💗

Oh yay! Excited to celebrate what everyone is rehearsing + performing this season!!

I am performing in my company's original take, The Maryland Nutcracker - complete with crabs, Orioles, a raven, and Edgar Allan Poe as out drosselmyer character. 🦀

I am SO excited to be premiering our latest adjustment, Queens of Snow + Ice (a female duet rather than a traditional pas de deux), Little Italy (set to the mother ginger music), and, as always, our Beach Waltz (set to flowers music) which is a classic Ocean City, MD scene complete with swimsuits and beach balls.

This split, especially the healthy joints + stamina days, are absolutely helping with Little Italy (think combo of donizetti + tarantella) and all of the big jumps, plus it's just a super long one.

MERDE to everyone performing this season!! 🩰💗

The Barbell Ballerina done and with success!! 💪 Now to keep it up 😂

Overall getting it done! 💪 Question: I feel like I've super plateaued with bench press 😭 I'm stuck at 70lbs and just can't seem to get over this hump to add weight. Any recs!?

Goal: consistency!! (Which might mean changing my usual evening gym time to the morning 🤷)
