Jacqui again

Last week the model was Harold, a 77 year old West Indian. He has a magnificent physique for his age but alas as he was old, he did a lying pose which meant that we couldn't see his shoulders or chest. This week Jacqui returns. When requested to do 2 min poses she offered a series of ballet poses. She was with the Australian Ballet for years and years. The strength involved in keeping pointe for 2 mins! Incredible! Here are two of my favourites from this session. The second has us attempting to use tones only, no lines.





Poor Jacqui has to have a hip replacement at the age of 47. Ballet is not body friendly.
