Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Ballet is a staple of American childhood, and the popularity of televised dance competitions like So You Think You Can Dance and Dancing with the Stars has helped create a growing market for private dance education. #2 The ballet competition scene was a rapidly growing industry before the pandemic, and it is not only the stories of the lucky and talented few who become professional ballet dancers that matter. The stories of all ballet's dancers, who learn what it means to be a woman, deserve our attention. #3 Ballet is a dance that requires focus and discipline. It requires students to practice their movements dozens of times before they perfect them. It is a place for students to learn and perfect new skills. #4 Ballet students are rarely allowed to talk to or interact with each other in class, and are instead supposed to watch the teacher or look at themselves in the mirror. They learn norms about how to be students and girls, and how to be women, from this structure.
