Saturday Statute
Ballet technique is an amazing thing. It has developed over centuries to become
what it is today: an amazingly effective
system for training the body to dance.
And it works on almost anyone’s body, assuming they can walk into a
classroom. Some dancers may take longer than
others to achieve a high level of competence, but the system works, and works well. As I say to my students, it is so effective I
could sell it with an 800 number.
Of course, this assumes a high level of motivation from the
dance student. Which brings us to Ballet
Statute #16: “Dance technique only works if you do.”
It requires a daily commitment, not a casual once-in-a-while
attitude. A dancer must work even when
they don’t feel like it. But with the
right motivation, becoming a beautiful dancer is accessible to just about
anyone.
From the Big Blue Book of Ballet Secrets:
Statute #16:
“Dance technique only
works if you do.”
