Do you think ballet or dance in general is a sport?
Posted on Wednesday in so you think you can dance | by Peter
Footballers and basketballers etc always say that their sport is more competative and physical but dance requires you to use evry muscle in your body at different times. If you do ballet en pointe then you will have far stronger ankles than any sports person

I think that dance is only a sport if it is competition. The word "sport" has to involve competition. But I believe that all forms of dance are difficult and demanding physical activities. Especially ballet, seeing as it requires sever training and technique. I have respect for any serious dancer and the ability they posses.

Totally! People ask me what sport do you do and I say ballet. I mean think about it you’re moving and football players use ballet in their stretches so why not?

Of course! Dance is an art… a form of passion… a way to express… & if it is all of that, then it is most definitely, a sport.

Yes I believe it’s a sport. If you did swimming or soccer you would get stronger muscles. I do ballet and I have stronger muscles too. I may look small but I can lift my friends up and walk around with them for a few minutes. You also need to stretch before and after dancing, like other sports.

This is my 6th year doing ballet. I did 1 RAD and got Distinction. I’ve done 2 CSTD exams and got Honours for all of them.
