Ballerina Nazis

Surprisingly, there were quite a few photos that would have worked well for this post I found by googling "ballerina nazis". After referring back to my days in 4th grade when I had no idea what the swastika meant and thought it was the most beautiful thing in the world and drew it all over my homework and folders, I thought better of it and decided this would be a picture-less post.

So what is a ballerina nazi? Don't worry, I wouldn't leave you hanging. My daughter's brand new ballet school sent home a newsletter with her after her first day of class. Littered all over the newsletter next to the upcoming show announcements and birthdays are threats and rules.

• Students are to arrive not one minute more than ten minutes early, as this encourages bad behavior.
  
  
• Students are to do homework between dance classes.
  
  
• Parents are never to be allowed in the room to watch their children dance, they need to bond with their instructor and their dance mates and disruptions will not be tolerated.
  
  
• Parents are never to leave the hallway during the 45 minute class.
  
  
• Chairs will never be provided for parents (Ok, it doesn't actually say that but I think it's important to know!)
  
  
• Parents must walk their dancers from class to class as they are never to be unattended and no one should be wandering the halls.
  
  
• A blizzard is no excuse for missing a class and you WILL be billed regardless of whether you were there or not.
  
  

My daughter? Oh she's 4. Turning 5 actually. Which is on the newsletter. Too bad they spelled her name wrong.

Fucking Nazis.
