I took my husband to his first ballet way back when. (I was a trained ballerina) He thought it looked "easy". As a dancer I knew how strong all the dancers are. I pointed out to him that the guys were lifting 105 lb women while both were moving, both with a smile, and then setting her down as gentle as a feather. THEN I pointed out the thighs and arms on these dancers. He now has massive respect for all dancers.
