asherofwinterfell: Big Fat Deal: The Big Ballet is a troupe of dancers from Russia who weigh a minimum of 220 pounds each. Because the ballet tag features too many people of only one body type.  Let’s not pretend you need to be a certain weight to be able to perform fouetté en tournant.

It’s almost a meditative process, preparing the shoes you know are going to be your performance shoes for a special role. It’s a big thing; you sew them and then you dance in them for two and a half hours and then you can’t wear them again. - Amber Scott, principal with the Australian Ballet (x)
