Reflection

So far I've learned quite a bit. I was very curious about eating disorders in dance, and i have definitely learned a lot about that. I thought that dancers just strove to be skinny, but the real problems are what the companies look for in a dancer. Still in this area, I'd like to know if the men have a weight limit, or height requirement. I've tried to research this, but women are mainly talked about in this area of ballet.

I've also learned about the history of ballet. I find it very interesting how ballet started in the royal courts. It started as a "competition." A show to exemplify the wealth of quarreling families. Now, dance has been enhanced and is done for pleasure and entertainment.

Although I've learned much much more on my topic, i still wish to learn more. I want to learn about famous dancers, and how they became. Famous choreographers and their famous ballets. And famous composers who wrote what ballet couldn't do without. I still enjoy this topic and am excited to dig in deeper.
