the male dancer
written by Tom Blair on 01.11. at 21:32:03 I never hide my dancing or feel anything but pride that I do it. Not many guys could do what I do and I have lots of women friends who love it. I have a great body. I'm sure some guys think it "weird" but they would not say it to my face. FD - what you are feeling is a reflection of what you feel. STOP FEELING ASHAMED or strange about your love of ballet. In truth, the winds have shifted a bit. It was more acceptable 10-20 for a man to dance ballet. But it is still fine. The thing to do in order to conquer this - is to be good - really good. Work your butt off - the most important thing is barre work. All the great tricks (like double tours) will happen once your body is aligned properly and that happens only from intense work at the barre. If you are single and straight being in a ballet class is like being a kid in a candy store.
