where does the grace come?

I think it's the years of being trained to have good posture and algnment. Since I started dancing I've noticed I walk taller and hold myself better, less slumped.

Also I find some of the steps just are graceful in themselves.

And of course there is the whole darwinian sort of thing where only the most talented and ergo graceful are promoted so the ones you see at the big companies are the most graceful of the elegant masses...

I just wanted to say thank you to whomever wrote this article. I had no problem finding the term I needed when a reference was made to a ballet term (of which I know nothing)in a document I was editing in my job.
