1. Watch Old Performances
Sometimes you just need to keep reliving and reliving the beautiful moments you’ve had on stage. As sad as it may be, it can help!
2. Take off your fake eyelashes and stare at them
This sounds weird, but those little strips of hair endured the risk of being torn off during costume changes. Plus, they added to your beauty, they played a crucial job in making your confidence shine through your dancing
3. Sit down with a big soft blanket and eat.
Leading up to performances, dancers are constantly watching what they are eating…. But now that it’s over, indulge! You deserve it.
4. Go to ballet class
Keep the dancing in you! Missing classes after a show is probably one of the worst things you can do, you don’t want to get out of shape! Keep flexible with a relaxing and calming class.
5. Surround yourself with your fellow performers
A HUGE tradition many dancers share is going out to dinner after a show, keeping the momentum going with your best ballet buds is a great way to get through the emotions of post-show feels.
6. Keep your hopes high.
You will have many more opportunities to shine onstage and have fun performing. Think, “I always have another show in a few months!”
7. You also have more rehearsals coming up soon as well.
Before you know it, it will be tech week for yet another show!
