Rehearsals can feel excruciatingly long—especially when there's a performance or competition coming up, and you're stuck in the studio for hours upon hours. But somehow, dancers always find a way to survive the grind. Here are the 7 stages we go through while toughing out a long rehearsal.


The Snacking Stage


Before rehearsal even starts, you're munching on something to help keep your stamina up. Because you know how this goes.

The Fidgeting Stage


You're an hour in, but barely anything has been accomplished? Time to fidget with your shoes, hair, etc—anything to distract you from the glacial pace.

The Clock-Checking Stage


How long has it been now? Let me just peep my phone real quick...

The Cracking-Every-Bone-in-Your-Body Stage


Extreme boredom ➡️ cracking literally everything, from your fingers to your back to your toes.

The Daydreaming-About-Your-Bed Stage


It is fully 10:30 pm and you and your broken body are fully ready to hit the hay.

The Power-Through-to-the-End Stage


There is—allegedly—only an hour left! If you go full-out and it's PERFECT, maybe you can get out earlier??

The "WE SURVIVED!" Stage


YAAAASSSSSSS!

See you tomorrow at 9 am. 😭
