Run. Run. Run.

If you can watch this without getting a lump in your throat… Unfollow me. You are not human.

In case anyone is interested, here’s a PDF copy of “The Nutcracker and the Mouse-King” by E. T. A. Hoffmann. This is the story the ballet is based on.

“The Nutcracker Prince” (1990) was my second favourite cartoon growing up (”Balto” was my favourite).

Hogwarts Houses as Ballet Dancers

Slytherin

Slytherins have a precise technique and they make the audience feel all the emotion on stage. They are the most competitives in the company and every dancer knows that they kill with their technique and passion. They were just born for the big roles and they totally rock it. They don’t like to admit, but their lifes wouldn’t be as good without ballet.

Gryffindor

Gryffindors are more emotion than technique. Their movements aren’t 100% right, but the emotion they transmit always compensate. They are the ones who won’t be scared of getting a big role. We can’t forget that they are the ones who are always injured as they secretly never stop until get it right.

Ravenclaw

Ravenclaws have more than a precise technique. They spend hours and hours rehearsing until every single one of their steps are in the perfect position and timing. As much as they have a perfect execution it just lacks connection with their partners and emotion. If they don’t get a big role, it’s better to stay away or they might throw a pointe shoe on you.

Hufflepuff

Hufflepuffs are entirely passion. They are the ones who were borned to dance, as they dance on the stage the audience is crying with joy or sorrow. You can feel how much they enjoy dancing just by looking at them. They are very easily to be partners with and they have chemistry with everyone, especially slytherins.
