But till then, she'd enjoy Hogwarts till the very last minute, as well as still dance in the RoR, her usual place of practice.
Today somebody would be joining her though and she was okay with that, she liked company anyways. Always made things more exciting and fun. Walking past the room three times, she wished for the room Sarah was in and then as the door appeared she entered inside and smiled at the kiddo that was already stretching on the floor. Good, because the quicker stretching was over the better.
"Hey!" Sarah got some quick smiles.
With her Nessie carried a small bag, that she reached inside to grab her shoes and her dancing skirt. She first put her skirt over her tight pants that she had been wearing and her shoes, she plonked on the wooden floor before replacing her barefeet with them. After that was done her own stretching began.
First, she rolled her shoulders, then her head and eventually she sat with her legs right in front of her stretched as she touched her toes whilst laying her head on her knees. But she wasn't done..with her stretching could even take up to half an hour at times.
Sarah had been lying on the floor when Nessie walked in and did not even jerk up to say hi. "hi" she said from the floor. She then raised her right leg stretched brought it down and bent it. She did it a few times, even when it got tired and then switched legs. Good, hamstrings are great.
Then she pulled herself up and put her legs in butterfly position, her feet against each other and knees bent.. slowly she began to push down on them and soon her knees were just off the floor. That was what happened when you did not practice enough.
After three minutes of sitting she went up to the barre that lined the wall that had mirrors and Sarah put her leg on it. Slowly she began to bend her knee that was on the grand and she could feel the stretching. She leaned forward. It hurt, yet it worked.
Then Sarah used her wand hand to hold her right leg and remove it from the barre and hold it aloft in the air. She used to be able to shoulder it, yet now she was out of practice, so it just was high.
She did a few more warm ups and then returned to the centre and waited for Nessie to finish.
