“The ballet episode just scratches the surface. I am an exprofessional dancer & had a mental health crisis during my preprofessional training & it was considered a worthy sacrifice to succeed in my art. When I left dance I joked it was like leaving a cult because I had no skills outside of dance, no friends outside of dance & needed foot surgery as a result of pointe work. I endured a 2nd/3rd mental health crisis and complete burn out. Iv survived and wont put my child in ballet but am open to him being a part of inclusive movement spaces 💜”
