As the SAB school year comes to a close, it's time for the seniors to start thinking about their professional futures. After dedicating their entire lives to dance, few things matter more than finding out which company, if any, they will dance for.

You see all these guys who spend their lives in the gym all pumped up walking around with 18" biceps who think they're really strong and then you see a 14 old girl essentially doing squats over and over again en pointe, that is what you call strength.

@katg1594 8 жыл бұрын

Both are strong in different ways.

HelenaBlack80 u are so right, ballet dancers really need to be strong but then, u just can't have a big but, strong arms, and so much more

I think ballet gives you a lot of opportunity to travel. Hearing the kids talking about leaving their friends is very reminiscent of my senior year in high school. The difference for these kids is that they have the chance to get a job abroad, as there are many ballet companies all over the world, especially in Europe! These kids are very lucky. :)
