"I don’t think ballet dancers will ever fully embrace a pop culture image of ballet. They’re like Goldie Locks—this is too soft, this is too hard. Ultimately, to accept any popular understanding of ballet would be to admit it’s possible for someone outside to ‘get it.’ Part of what helps ballet dancers pursue such a challenging lifestyle is the feeling that it somehow makes them special. If just anyone can understand their world, it becomes less special."
