We have not yet had the opportunity to interview this dance blog, if you are associated with the blog please have someone from the blog email us at Brittany@BDancewear.com to set up an interview (only takes a few minutes and it’s free).
In the meantime here is some quick insights about this dance blog from their website.
Setting the Barre is a blog that chronicles Kirsten’s life as a professional ballet dancer (plus other mischief she gets involved in along the way.). She describes herself as a “Professional ballet dancer, amateur writer, voracious traveler and avid tea drinker.” She describes her blogs as the written rambling of her conscience as she attempts to chronicle her adventures, both onstage and off. Kirsten offers to the readers, “From the tights and tiaras to the blisters and bunions…read, explore and enjoy.” In the opinion of this writer, this blog is different from most of the other dance blogs that I have read because it is centered around the life of a professional ballerina and rather than being informative to dancers, teachers, and others interested in dance. This blog seems to be one more for entertainment purposes than educational purposes. Although, Kisten does answer questions and gives some advice. Even the more serious topics, such as Injuries and Injury Prevention is very general in nature. Nevertheless, it has many followers that really enjoy the posts.
