| Abstract: |
The article offers ideas that help ballet teachers encourage students to develop healthy body image. It is understood that sometimes dance teachers can have a negative impact on the dancer but it is best if teachers will serve as the mentor that guides them toward a healthy body. It is suggested that teachers should know how to direct them and educate them about good nutrition and healthy eating. The most effective way of preventing eating disorders is to be the example to the students. |
