Description:
WHEN IS TOO LATE TO START BALLET?

When is it too late to start ballet? The truth is, that really depends on the dancer. If a child has a dream of growing up to be a prima ballerina, in a professional ballet company, then they would want to start ballet classes, at a very young age, taking many classes a week, and moving on to pointe work, and then auditioning for company level classes. If you're an adult, looking for ballet classes, as a form of exercise and entertainment, there are many cities throughout our country, that have wonderful, wonderful, ballet companies, that offer adult classes, to the amateur, as well as the more seasoned dancer. Either way, ballet is a wonderful form of exercise, for all ages, shapes, and advanced levels.

Int J Eat Disord. 2005 Nov;38(3):263-8. Disordered eating attitudes and behaviors in ballet students: examination of environmental and individual risk factors. Thomas JJ, Keel PK, Heatherton TF. SourceDepartment of Psychology, Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut 06520-8205, USA. Jennifer.Thomas@Yale.edu Abstract OBJECTIVE: The current study compared the prevalence of disordered eating attitudes and behaviors among adolescent ballet dancers at national, regional, and local schools. METHOD: Female ballet students (N = 239; mean age = 15.0 +/- 1.5 years) from five geographically disparate summer programs completed the Eating Dis-order Inventory (EDI) and answered questions regarding eating disorder symptoms. RESULTS: Students from both national and local schools reported significantly higher EDI total, Drive for Thinness, and Perfectionism scores compared with regional students. In contrast, national students reported significantly greater dieting scores and lifetime histories of self-induced vomiting compared with regional and local students. CONCLUSION: Eating pathology among adolescent ballet dancers may be a function of both genetic and environmental risk. Dancers who exhibit high levels of perfectionism and, perhaps consequently, place themselves in highly competitive environments, may exhibit a significantly increased risk for disordered eating in comparison to dancers who are less perfectionistic and/or place themselves in less competitive environments.

Perfectionism and learning experiences in dance class as risk factors for eating disorders in dancers. Penniment KJ, Egan SJ. SourceSchool of Psychology and Speech Pathology, Curtin Health Innovation Research Institute, Curtin University, Australia. Abstract There is strong evidence that perfectionism is a risk factor for eating disorders. Women who engage in dance training have been reported to be at risk for eating disorders, and it has been hypothesised that expectancies about thinness and restricting food intake are formed partly as a result of exposure to thinness related learning (TRL) experiences in this environment, which may increase their risk. To clarify the relative contribution of perfectionism and learning in accounting for eating disorder symptoms in this group, 142 female ballet dancers completed an online survey. Through structural equation modelling it was found that the association between perfectionism and eating disorder symptoms was partially mediated by learning about thinness and restriction. The results suggest that eating disorder symptoms in dancers are significantly influenced by the interaction of perfectionism and learning, and future research should investigate the efficacy of prevention programs to target these risk factors in female dancers.

Int J Psychoanal. 1998 Aug;79 ( Pt 4):667-79. The non-verbal dimension in psychoanalysis: 'state' and its clinical vicissitudes. Schwaber EA. Abstract The author focuses on state, a particular and continuing dimension of non-verbal expression which, though generally seen, heard or felt, often remains implicit. Basic, primal, reflecting psyche and soma woven together, state lies in a direct link with our earliest beginnings. Conveying one's affect, the sense of one's body--of one's self--in relationship to oneself and to the outer world, it influences and is influenced by the presence of the other. Thus, a change in state may be an early cue of the experiential effect of a perception, reflecting the impact of another's felt participation--including that other's state--the place from which we may truly find ourselves as participant-observers. State illuminates our unceasing subjectivity. In its subtle manifestation, it offers an added 'royal road' to what is yet unconscious, opening vital pathways of psychic experience that might otherwise have remained unnoted. Brought to collaborative and explicit focus, state can be mutually observed, and enquiry as to its meaning undertaken. It can be verbalised, and it can be analysed. Further, in sharpening our observance of nuances of data, attention to state will deepen consideration of the nature of our analytic evidence. Clinical examples are offered in elaboration of these ideas.
