Researching pressures of the Industry i have come across this article, i found this very interesting and it is circulating around Facebook. This article is interesting because i recently posted another article on my blog about the pressures of being a dancer and it was very pessimistic, this article however shows a contrasting view.

I feel that the Pressures of the Industry are becoming more acknowledged throughout the dance industry, especially within the network of professional dancer who is looking for work.

I would be interested to find out more about dancers who are still at college and whether they feel the pressure or have been advised on how to cope once they leave college and become independent.

This article is just one persons view and i feel that many people in the same situation will relate to this and find it inspiring however i feel some people will read it and disagree, for example they may be married with children and still being a professional dancer and this would go against many of the things that she is stating in this article.

This article has made me think 'how has she coped' 'what were her coping techniques' 'i wonder if she has suffered depression' and have the pressures of the industry made her a stronger person?
