I’m in love with gymnastics…and i’ve always been a gymnast in my heart…but I also love ballet in spite i couldn’t be a ballerina because my parents couldn’t afford the classes and the costumes and all of that.
I admire the ballerinas for their flexibility, their grace and their femininity…This picture is dedicated to Maria Kotchetkova, who just started following me and i don’t know why????!!! but i have to say it’s an honor and as i can’t thank her directly, this is my humble way of showing her my admiration :)
