    SO i have mixed news.

    She accepted me, starting two days a week, working into the full four days a week, and now i have a few dilemmas.

    For one, she was pretty rude, and judgemental to me, particularly about my not being comfy talking about work(I dodged the question a bit before she outright asked "are you a stripper"), and eventually admitting that I do poledancing, IN A CLUB. Like i was constantly on the defensive. No I don't even drink. No, i dont case drama, you can barely get two words out of me. Yes i take scheduling commitments seriously. WTF?

    So, I don't like the lady, and don't know how comfy I'd be working under her. I could learn a lot, but i really get the sense that I would have to put up with a lot of putdowns.

    Two, its REALLY out of the way, and would limit my work schedule a LOT. At the same time, they offer discounted rates for hte training for apprentices, but it adds up because of the sheer number of hours in the studio. SO i would have NO room to slip, or have a bad month. I'm sure this will be similar wherever, but its going to be tough working as much as possible, saving as much as possible, and shelling out the money for this.

    Three, she was very insistant I'd have to REMOVE my neck piercing. Not because she felt it was a danger, simply because she doesn't want ot to provide a bad example for any kids I train with. WTF this is PORTLAND?! I could understnad it if it was a safety risk, but since its in the HOLLOW of my neck, and the apparatus' are TAUGHT from your weight, theres no way of it getting snagged. I really love my piercing, and would be loathe to give it up. If i can get some kind of see through placeholder button for it, that would be OK by me, but she was REALLY judgemental about it. I REALLY don't like this woman.

    I want to contact the other company i'm auditioning with, and ask their policy. Most places and studies would simply ask I wear a bandaid over it if it interferes with a costume or aesthetic. And most of the other companies have pierced, tattooed, etc. performers. At any rate, they aren't picking up the phone, so i'll shoot an email over.

    I dont know what to do.

    Oooh, don't take that job! Such a huge personality clash is going to get in the way of a remotely beneficial teacher/student relationship.

    If I were you, I'd embrace the awesomeness of being accepted, and use that mojo to get hired somewhere better.

    It's like when you get a private dance and then suddenly everyone wants you!

    Thanks, anomar! That was my concern. I mean, i can get along with pretty much anyone, and i'm not sure how muhc of hte actual "teaching" she does, but i was pretty pissed.

    And i get the feeling that if i tried to put together a performance with them, she'd make nasty comments about my movement style being "innappropriate". not because of anything i did, simply because she "knows" what i do.

    Like, i can take her nasty comments on my body. I did ballet for years, its par for the course for a performing field. But my piercing has a pretty much religious meaning for me, and it seemed to me she was being unreasonable about it. And her comments RE my work and personal habits were, i felt, inappropriate.

    Incredibly inappropriate. Find a teacher who respects you as a person and your unique (and fucking amazing) talents. It sounds like this woman would stifle you & your love of performance.

    I agree...dont do this. You are so fragile lately and dealing with a woman like this will not only stress you out WAY more then you need to be,you wont learn the way you should because of her.

    I did talk to my piercer, and he says the base for the piercing doesnt have to be taken out, i can just remove hte stone. SO thats not an issue, since that woudl leave ABSOLUTELY nothign to get caught.

    But yeah, i'm already comparing her handling, and my current instructors handling, of me.

    And ALWAYS, even before i started dancing, i've had a smooth movement style. I can TOTALLY see myself doing a smooth movement, because ihaven't been TOLD to do a sharp isolation, and see her harassing me for setting a bad example, or being to sexy, simply because she expects it. The potential was pretty out in the open. I think even her assistant instructor noticed it a bit, and was a bit surprised that she was willing for me to come back.

    So i just got done speaking to a friend of my moms, who used to run the dance department at a college. I dont know if she still does.

    She thinks that how i was treated was just audition-hazing. Like "do you really want to be doing this, are you tough enough?". She thinks that they wouldn't have accepted me unless they really DID think i could do it, and would do well at it.

    I'm used to levels of audition hazing, i grew up in the performing arts world. THe personal attacks seem uncalled for, but Iguess i just have to see how she handles herself in class.

    Maybe i should just train this month, until my other audition, and see if i like her, or if hte other place takes me.

    There's relaly only three options that i can see. #1. Her company. #2. THe other company. #3. My current company, which is comfy, but doesnt have performance opportunities for learners, or as much advancement potential.

    SIgh. I know i can do my "light" schedule and work with no problem, but i am mildly worried at trying to earn enough money for the full schedule, with it limiting the shifts i can take.

    I dont see how i could do the full schedule AND work.

    I think that much physical activity would KILL me, literally. if not from insanity and mental exhaustion, from the sheer physical exertion of it.

    Its more expensive than they ever say in any of the "opportunities" thing. And i doubt i could get student loans for it.

    But there's no way i can do aerial work and THEN dance, and then dance on the off days.

    So end decision on the matter, nix on the judgemental twit. Its not worth me bankrupting myself for her attitude.

    The other company looks like a much better fit. Apprentices actually rehearse WITH the company, and are not CHARGED for it. They udnerstudy for performances.

    Also the other place varies between contemporary dance and aerial so its an aesthetic thats much more in line with my goals and experiences, and the other lady was quite shocked that iwas concerned about the piercing. She said no problem, if it becomes a hazard, we'll discuss it then, but it doesnt sound like it is, and we don't care about that type of individuality. Apprentices only train two days a week, so it wouldn't cut into my work schedule much at all.

    I really need to ace this new audition(october 4th!!!!) and if i don't, I'll just have to go back and continue studying at my current place until they DO accept me.

    Sigh. I think thats the right choice.

    So i'm trying to look at it as a learning experience. I got to try my moves on a different rigging, with a very different feel, and nearly twice the height. In that sense, I totally rawked it. And its once more that i got to touch the ropes....

    Now, to diplomatically word an email to the first lady on why i won't do it.
