Hello all!
I'm a 25 year old former ballet dancer. I quit ballet while recovering from an eating disorder. Meanwhile, I was diagnosed with a chronic pain disorder, and going back to ballet seemed impossible.
I'm ready to go back into dance. Is anyone else an adult in the process of recovering a dancer's body and technique? I'm desperate to dance again! But I want to do it without the intense pain and body-image issues.
There is also the issue of avoiding injury. So much to think about!
Anyone else experience this?!!
