do you feel like a young god?

ELODIE CATHERINE: (noun): dance & coffee enthusiast. Washington born and bred. No, not that Washington. The one in Connecticut. Now an active resident of New York City. You can probably find me somewhere between Juilliard and Starbucks.Oh, I have three sisters running around. They all have my face. The easiest way to tell us apart would be to just ask. Although usually I'm the one acting like a mother hen.Curious? Hit me up.

@nyboundkurt: @itselodie it's just a way for me to pass the time, though the classes are pretty interesting. I think I look pretty amazing doing that kind of stuff, too.

@itselodie: @nyboundkurt Is it like a self-defense class? Or like, actual ninja skills?

princeparkersmythe:

You speak French? It is, it’s really cool when people pay attention to keep things safe.

I do! My name is actually French, so I was always fascinated with the language and country growing up because people would always tell me my name sounds unusual. Did the teacher yell at them, at least?

estnomenmason:

Is it bad enough you need to take a few days off?

Nah, I was mostly over-exaggerating. It’ll probably pass once my body gets used to it.

thewildeitalian:

Really? I’m a dancer/teacher at ABT.

Yep, really. Wow, that’s really cool! Classical ballet is a bit too uptight for me to dance, but I sure enjoy watching it.

[elodiefabray]

@nyboundkurt: @itselodie All the same, except from school, so it's all work and combat classes today.

@itselodie: @nyboundkurt /Combat classes/? Wow. That sounds a thousand times more interesting than my day.

[elodiefabray]

princeparkersmythe:

To the person who smashed into my shoulder during stage combat because you were talking instead of listening to the teacher at the beginning of the class… vas te faire encule.

Sounds rough. Fuck them indeed. Stage combat though, that sounds like an interesting class.

knoxvalemilo:

So apparently it’s actually Berenstain Bears, and not Berenstein Bears…

... Stain? You sure about that?

[elodiefabray]

@Nyboundkurt: Happy Humpday! What's in store for you all today?

@itselodie: @Nyboundkurt School. Work. Y'know, the usual things people do on a Wednesday. You?

[elodiefabray]

benjiclarington:

That’s really unfortunate. I’m glad I only had to do minor dance classes.

Eh, it’s not so bad once your body gets used to it. Getting used to hurting 90% of the time is the battle though. What kind of dance class did you take?

[elodiefabray]

@andertoby: @itselodie I will and I'm graceful as a gazelle Miss. Stumbler when Drunk so you wouldn't think she was a dancer. Though that's a long name. Not always, just sometimes. But alcohol tastes good.

@itselodie: @andertoby Hey now, drunk me may have zero walking skills, but I can still hold my own on the dance floor, thank you very much.

[elodiefabray]

thewildeitalian:

What type of dance do you take?

Ballet. Mostly contemporary ballet, but obviously we still have to learn the classical as well.

thetobyanderson:

*someone tell my sisters and Toby I love them. I fixed it for you, but come on Miss Elodie you know you can kick all the other bitches to the curb, or on pointe them to the curb, I don’t know what you dancers call it. 

Pfft. Who ever said I love you? I know, I know, but still doesn’t make the sore muscles any more pleasant. Most of them also surprisingly got real good really fast over the summer. So more work for me. Yay.

[elodiefabray]

thewildeitalian:

Only other thing I can think of is a dance class.

Ding ding ding.

[elodiefabray]

@andertoby: @itselodie In your dreams, as it's I, who is going to be rolling in those $20. I know, I'm the worst, forgetting one of the best. I was so ashamed and so drunk at the same time.

@itselodie: @andertoby Pfft, believe what you will, Mr. Klutz. Drunk you forgets Disney lyrics, huh? Maybe you shouldn't get drunk again ever.

[elodiefabray]

@andertoby: @itselodie You've got yourself a deal with the falling thing, little lady. If I'm being honest with you, the only lyrics I tend not to forget are Disney, but even then I messed up part of you world last time. #gambleonme

@itselodie: @andertoby Just you wait. I'll be $20 richer by the end of the night. Gasp. You forgot the lyrics to Part of Your World? Dishonor on you, dishonor on your cow.

[elodiefabray]

thewildeitalian:

Are you running in class everyday?

Getting warmer...

[elodiefabray]

benjiclarington:

Or… this is just a thought… not pushing yourself so hard.

If I could, I would, but Juilliard is pretty strict on daily rehearsals. So y’know, my muscles hurt either way. I think it hurts a bit more than usual because I barely danced all summer and now my body’s shocked.
