[quote=Anonymous]Yes, This is a very real concern. I have been a professional dancer for decades. I have taught at the university level. Yes, ballet has a huge eating disorder rate that does not happen at the same rate as other techniques. it is not opinion, it is well documented, even in companies that preach a healthy body image. The prevalence in gym, or mens wrestling for that matter does not excuse ballet. Yes, this worries me. It is an unfortunate engrained norm. [/quote]
