The men complained her excessive weight caused them injuries?<br>>109 pounds! I would have enjoyed a ballerina at 109 pounds when I was in partnering classes!<br>>I remember Lisa who was probably 130-140, but all muscle. I was scared when we had to do a "fish," but she had such great control of all that muscle that partnering her was effortless.<br>>Does anyone have a horror story about a portly ballerina? Not that we don't all love ballerinas, regardless of the weight. Just wondering!<br>>balletboy<p>109 pounds and 5' 6" tall is too heavy??? Bullsh*t!!! That kind of mental pressure is what drives too many ballerinas into eating disorders!! I work with ballerinas who are smaller and weigh 115 pounds!!<p>I think that this lovely ballerina was told to hang up her tights and pointes more because she had an affair with one of the Bolshoi Ballet's supporters, which ended quite nastily.<p>It was politics, not her weight that got this ballerina bounced!!!
