Good one, Gershon. With a few words, you captured the beauty of a ballerina. Ballet is beautiful. Males, included. Like, Nureyev! Pangie xx

like, Nureyev... like Baryshnikov too... Nureyev was my favorite. I saw him perform live in Urbana, IL in 1973, just before he defected. I could swear that he leaped across the width of the stage in one bound. Like a deer, he was. Amazing!! Thanks, Pangie. Smiles, Gershon
