Hear from the Ballet 5:8 artists about how they like to express their style in their dance attire and learn about their go-to dance bag items.
Laura Peterman, Company Artist
Q: As a professional, you get to let more of your personal style be reflected in your ballet attire—in three words, how would you describe your style?
A: Romantic. Classical. Colorful.
Q: What's your favorite warm up or leotard that brings you joy?
A: It's hard for me to choose one! I love unique leotards with flattering lines & cuts. My latest favorite right now is a mock-neck, folk-print leotard from Eleve Dancewear with a mesh back. I bought it in celebration when we were able to come back to the studio after quarantine!
Q: What are the top five things in your dance bag?
Tennis ball for rolling out my muscles.
DeepBlue oil for aches & pains.
RubiaWear leg warmers.
Skirts in various colors & styles (I like options).
Sewing kit for snapped ribbons & elastics.
Q: What is one piece of dance wear or accessory you can't live without?
A: My foam roller. I bring it everywhere, even in the car on tour!
