backonpointeI am not on Pinterest!
Please read my FAQ before sending me a question.



I'm a college student and a dancer, and I'm working to lose weight, gain muscle, become more fit... and help others do the same!

My Ask Box is always open to questions, suggestions, or if you just need to talk. If you'd like something to be answered privately, just let me know in the message. (Note: anonymous questions cannot be answered privately.)

I track the "backonpointe" tag!

so ballerinas are the most metal mother fuckers out there

because not only do they have to go through rigorous training and strain to perfect their craft, while simultaneously destroying their joints and self esteem

but they gotta look like fucking fairies and princesses and graceful swans while they fucking do it and not look like they’re in fucking pain and pushing their bodies to their limits

ballerinas are metal as shit yo

I KNOW I can’t be the only plus size dancer out here. I’ve seen a few wonderful ones on tumblr, but I know there must be more. Don’t ever let anyone tell you your size will stand in your way. In your living room, a studio, the street- it doesn’t matter how or where, just dance.

“Also, for the the person asking about where to buy dance clothes, often your dance teacher can recommend local stores in case you don't have time to wait for something online to get shipped (happened to me earlier this year!). :)”

“Hi to the anon asking for a good dance store i wouldn't buy online unless you know all your sizes. and some studios have little shops in them.”
-dancerrrrrrb

Or you do what my ballet teacher suggests: buy a bunch of sizes, try them all on, and send back what doesn’t fit. But once you know your sizes in certain brands, it’s easy to shop online.

“where do you suggest to get dance wear?”
-Anonymous

Online, honestly. Good dance stores are hard to find in person (though Dancewear Corner in the Orlando area is nice) but there are tons of stores online. I’ve purchased from Discount Dance before, but there are also fancy leotard shops like Yumiko and Elevé online.

Make sure you always check the return policy before ordering online, though, in case the item doesn’t fit you right!
