Ballet may look glamorous and effortless to audience members, but it requires grueling discipline. It's a competitive and physically and mentally demanding career that combines elite athleticism, artistry, and performance. Not only do dancers rehearse for six to eight hours a day before performing at night, but they also must make it all look easy! As a principal ballerina with New York City Ballet and a one-time Broadway star--not to mention a mother of three and an MBA student--Megan Fairchild is all too familiar with these challenges. In The Ballerina Mindset, she shares all the wisdom she's learned from her nearly two-decade career, drawing upon her own experiences to show us how she learned to overcome challenges ranging from stage fright to negative feedback to a packed calendar to weight management--and how we can do the same. Inspiring, warm, and revelatory, The Ballerina Mindset is the perfect how-to guide for dancers, athletes, artists, and anyone struggling to stay sane in a high-pressure environment"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Fairchild, Megan. 650 0 $a Self-actualization (Psychology) 650 0 $a Success. 650 0 $a Performance. 650 0 $a Stress management. 650 0 $a Work-life balance. 650 0 $a Life skills. 650 0 $a Ballet dancers $z United States $v Biography. 941 $a 6 952 $l GZPE631 $d 20240305021146.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010030919.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20221227010345.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20220202011248.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20220129011811.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20211210010053.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D2193DFE598611EC9F5A40905DECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
