We ballerinas love seeing male dancers wear their tights!! But aside from the sexual appeal of wearing tights, they are quite practical, comfortable and keep your legs warm and help to shape your legs. So PLEEEEEEEEEEEZE try some tights. You'll love them, and we'll love looking at you!!>I'm kind of in the same boat. I'm in my 30's , male and I start classes on Wednesday and have been nervous about wearing the tights There's nothing to be nervous about. Tights for guys is the norm in ballet. You will feel quite at ease once you take your first class wearing your tights. Answers to this message: |
