Is a TERRIBLE representation of the dance world. The girls on that show may have technique, but what they are put through is absolutely awful. Having like 9 yr olds learn a solo in a week, only two to three rehearsals? That’s unprofessional and just bad business. The moms are crazy, and aren’t realizing what they are putting their daughters through. I cringe when I watch it and cannot believe what I’m seeing right now. If you went to a studio like that, I feel very sorry for you. I truly believe that you can have great dancers without all of that. And to be quite frank, I probably would not be dancing right now if I went to a place like that.
I dare you to find a better male dancer than Baryshnikov.
Please put something in my Ask Box??
Dancing’s not work. You can’t call it work.
A day I don’t dance is a day I don’t live.
