Guest MissBallet Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 Ok, this is going to sound REALLY dumb, so be prepared Is it normal for dancers to be fascinated by a spacific teacher? There is this one teacher who I feel soooo comofrtable with...like she is my mother! I am so fascinated by her. Is this normal, or am I going mental? Thanks! -Dani Quote Link to comment
Administrators Victoria Leigh Posted March 16, 2006 Administrators Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 Not at all unusual, Dani But do keep in mind that she is NOT your mother, and that is not her purpose in your life! She is there to teach you ballet. She has lots of young dancers, and I'm sure she loves all of you, but it's not at all the same as your Mom. Quote Link to comment
Guest MissBallet Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 Ya, I know that xD I trust her like she's my mom Pheewww! I'm not mental Quote Link to comment
Nutmegdancer Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 same with me i feel like i can say anything to some of my teachers,but i think it is because they are so nice to me! Nutmegdancer Quote Link to comment
Midnight_Vixen1992 Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 Thats not weird at all! I think that its important to have a good student-teacher relationship. You will learn more, feel more comfortable asking questions, and generally be happier in the class. Consider yourself lucky! :-) Quote Link to comment
sugarplum239 Posted January 28, 2007 Report Share Posted January 28, 2007 I have a similair situation- I have one teacher who I absolutely love! She is like my big sister. Quote Link to comment
Guest illini_chic110 Posted January 28, 2007 Report Share Posted January 28, 2007 I have one teacher who I look up to so much. I swear I'd love to be as good as she is. She's like perfection! Because I get along with her well, I feel like I get more out of class. SO I think a good relationship is important. Quote Link to comment
Gilly Posted January 28, 2007 Report Share Posted January 28, 2007 I have kind of the opposite problem! I have two technique teachers, one is wonderful and the other is a good teacher but you always feel like you cant do anything right. I guess it is a good balance becuase I do have one technique teacher that is great and i learn so much from him and he is so supportive and i get so much out of the class, but i just wish my other teacher could be like that too becuase i think i would advance more and do better in the class. Dont feel weird - its a good thing to have a teacher you like alot!! Quote Link to comment
Guest Chrysocolla Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 Heheh...same with me...they are sooo amazing.... Quote Link to comment
TuTuPrincess Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 I've been at two studios and at each of them i have teachers like that!! I think its good to have a good relationship but also not to get to close that you take there corrections personal! Quote Link to comment
diamond_cutie07 Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 I'm kind of like Gilly, but there's three teachers. One teacher is awesome, and you always feel good after her classes; the other (the one I'm extremely fascinated by) is so perfect. I admire her so much. Then I have this teacher who makes you feel horrible sometimes. He's funny and nice but he's so hard! So I guess it's different for everyone. I'd say that being fascinated by a teacher is normal.
