The article reflects on the author's journey with ballet from childhood to adulthood, detailing how she initially abandoned it for other pursuits but rediscovered it in her twenties. While working as a corporate lawyer in London, she sought a fitness outlet that engaged her body and alleviated stress. By joining a beginner ballet class, she found joy in movement and guilded herself back to basics, discovering numerous adult ballet classes available. This rekindled passion has profoundly impacted her life, now allowing her to merge her ballet skills with her yoga and Pilates instruction.
Returning to ballet in my early twenties as a corporate lawyer helped me reconnect with my body and find joy in movement, despite the challenges of work life.
The discipline and technique of ballet not only allowed me to improve as a dancer but also served as a wonderful way to de-stress and center myself.
