Dedicating today to BAKI photography. Their photography highlights the muscular definition of the male dancer’s body. I always appreciate their work!

A new study out of Portugal shows dance training—particularly in ballet—shows an association with mental health problems.

“ Dance students can be excessively preoccupied with internal events like emotions, thoughts and memories. That can change the way you perceive experiences, increasing your fear of failure and making you want to avoid uncomfortable situations. Unfortunately, those traits are associated with anxiety and depression in adolescents. “
