My mom was a prima ballerina.
Hello.  I love ballet dancing.  Do you like ballet?
I do, when I was younger I hated it simply because my mom loved it. But I've come to appreciate it over the years. Did you ever dance?
No but I always wanted to! It looks so beautiful and graceful. The dancers looked like living dolls to me.
It does look so graceful but they put in so much work. They are true athletes and it disappoints me whenever someone says they are not. I bet they are stronger than the average player on a football team.
It seems that a lot of the dance language is in french.
My mom ended up becoming fluent in French.
French is such a beautiful language.  Did she spend time in france?
