Swipe for some photos from the archives. Baby ballerina ashley 😭

I filmed some grande battements too, but yikes they need some work. 🤣

Nothing makes me feel prettier than a pretty tutu 🤍

When I was younger, the most magical scene in The Nutcracker was the snow scene. It never failed to capture my imagination and instill a sense of wonder and longing to dance as elegantly as the ballerinas on stage. Sometimes, life has a neat way of coming full circle. ❄️

Now that my boy is getting a little older, I’m hoping to start at least giving myself some classes. But of course, as I write this, he just tried to climb a chair and almost fell, so there's also that. 🤣

Choose your fighter: arabesque or attitude?

Happy earth day. 🌎💚

First time back in a studio in a year and a half. Was she a little rusty? Yes. But I wasn’t quite as creaky as I thought I’d be. 🤣

Strap on your boots 🩰

and I at the end of Flowers a decade ago. The way I was beaming because it was over. 🤣 It’s crazy how time works; it doesn’t feel like it’s been that long, but it also feels like another lifetime.

My arabesque is better than my swing. 🤣

Celebrating 2/2 day with a photo from a decade ago! This makes me feel ancient. 😅
