I suppose it depends on why you dance. My two just do it for fun, for a bit of exercise, and because I don't think that Ballet ever harmed anyone at this level.
As soon as it stops being fun, they'll stop doing it.

Like most kids do...
My friend is now a dance teacher, and I have to say, just the SIGHT of her Point shoes makes my feet hurt.
It does seem to turn into a masochistic past time after a few years.

I think coordination is quite an important skill, in most of it's forms.
It helps in day to day life, in trips and also when faced with danger/extreme situations. Being strong and coordianted can save you.
I also think coordination is an attractive feature in a person, probably for these reasons.

We watched a performance of The Snowman ballet on TV yesterday. They were marvelling at how the young lad was dancing so beautifully in wellies!!

My husband goes nuts every time he hears that song. Not sure why...

Sho - employed again! Posted Dec 28, 2005
well, I have to say I don't actually like it
But I'd just seen the original animated version, the the Gruesome Twosome found it on the artsworld channel and insisted we watch.
I have to say, I prefer the original, but ballet is usually interesting and they did it very well.
But the song - it does grate!

Well, after watching the film and hearing the song *every* Christmas for years, I guess I can understand how it'll grate...
I've heard worse, though. Like Truely Scrumpcious ...

ah, but Truly Scrumptious is worth sitting through, to see the children catcher - he's fantastic.
We have The Nutcracker today. That should be interesting.

I seriously dislike CCBB. And those kids really annoy me.
The Nutcracker is nice, though, but I like it better in the Disney Fantasia version.

really?
we're watching it on the Artsworld channel. Which means it could be a Martha Graham reworking of it for all I know!

Not sure I'm familiar with Martha Graham's work...

Martha Graham is the pioneed of modern dance - which means it's ancient (not so modern anymore).
Martha originally opened Bat-Sheva dance company with Bat-Sheva De Rothshilde and every single dance student studies her teachings.
It is not what you know as contemporary dance - it is the old school - way too dramatin and fixated modern dance.

I see... I have this vague image of a woman in dark clothes and hair in a bun, with overly heavy makeup. Could that be her?

Don't know - never saw a picture of her with her hair in a bun...
Is she in a pleeding position and has an agonized expression?

If you search google images there are many photos of Graham on the web. Here is a headshot:

I'm probably thinking of someone else, then.
