Our dancer Alessio Scognamiglio, who joined Les Grands Ballets in 2017, shares with us his survival kit.

(From top, left to right)

1. Acqua di Parma is my favorite perfume for rehearsals as it’s very light and fruity.
2. The foot roller is very important, especially at the end of the day to relax the muscles in my feet.
3. My Sonder water bottle.
4. Bandaids, for padding in case we work on our knees.
5. Two balls to massage my muscles: one to relax them and one for acupuncture.
6. Black shoes for rehearsals.
7. My black elastic for stretching.
8. I use my orange elastic to work on my toes!
