I was told I didn’t have the ballet body for YAGP, didn’t compete a solo again after that

Wow. I am so incredibly impressed and proud of your post! When I saw your post I assumed that you would be defending YAGP due to your affiliation with some big YAGP schools. I commend you for speaking out and am now a huge fan. I know that you have a high visibility and it is so impressive to see a young person like yourself speak out.

i quit ballet after 14 years because my studio went from focusing on growth and joy to focusing on competition and discipline. i planned on dancing my whole life and that dream ended because i wasn’t “the right type” to compete

Unfortunately this will never change unless the ballet companies change which body types they hire. Their decisions dictate the whole industry because they decide if you get to work or not, based on your technique, body and even things you cannot change like your height. It’s f*cked up but ballet teachers are preparing dancers for the professional world as it is, not as they wish it could be.

Ballet is the only form of dance that’s stuck in the past. Coming from a former ballet dancer who loves the art and refuses to let my daughter partake

My small ballet school did YAGP for 2 years…and I may be biased, but the group dance we brought was so much more technical and athletic than some of the others, but the groups that are winning have *donated their school for master classes* or * brought 20+ routines, aka gave a bunch of money* and we got nothing, probably because we brought a group and maybe 3 variations 🫣 I’m grateful that we stopped going after seeing the political side. Even the critiques for the pieces were just “good” … “nice” … “good work” …

I was at my “healthiest” when studying dance in college. I had a 15% body fat and was told I needed to lose weight if I wanted to make it professionally. I was 115 lbs at 4 11. I am now 160 lbs post having two kids. Still dancing on a company and I have WAY more muscle now because I learned about healthy looking different and skinny isn’t healthy…. Weight isn’t bad. Muscle weighs more and healthy dancers shouldn’t be a certain number on a scale.

This has been the case for at least the last 50 years that I personally know of. Mine started at 15 with a teacher weighing us and carried on until I was 45 and finally got the right treatment. University of Oklahoma dance used to do “snap weigh ins” then yell our weight out to the whole class

It’s by no means everywhere, but a lot of people in ballet/concert dance view certain body types as a sort of original sin

Alexandra :
idk guys but it’s not about weight is abt body composition, i personally was 42kg when i was told to lose weight cause i was considered “fat”, and the thing is that i needed to gain muscle definition but muscle weights more than fat
