This picture of dancers explains sound and sound waves because we make sound with our pointe shoes as we move and jump through the Sleeping Beauty Grand Waltz Variation that we performed this morning. As our pointe shoes strike the ground, they are vibrating, causing a sound to be formed at some frequency when we hit the ground with our shoes. Since the box/ tip of the shoe is hard and made of burlap and cardboard, they hit the ground quite hard which in turn, causes the sound and vibration made by the shoes to be quite loud. Not something we want when performing. Hopefully nobody will really notice it.
This is a cool way of showing what we learned!
