It will help men appreciate the finer points of ballet, which makes the viewing experience so much more enjoyable, much the way that football is more interesting when you learn how to anticipate a trap or a blast run from an \"I\" formation. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eBallet: A Man's Game\u003c\/i\u003e uses sports analogies to connect with the ardent sports fan. It recognizes that male dancers need the leg strength of a soccer player, the balance of a hockey player, the grace of an equestrian, the core strength of a gymnast, and the mind of a mathematician. The player only needs to have the ball cross the line to get into the win column, but the dancer has to win within the framework of a technique. A nose tackle playing with a pulled hamstring and bruised rib can grunt to deflect pain, but the dancer has no choice but to grin and bear it.\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 184\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.39 x 9.02 x 5.98 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 14, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42708543340607,"sku":"9798593823168","price":21.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/f22340004f45ce7777c1b3819e7d5445.webp?v=1765048187","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/ballet-a-mans-game-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
