There are three women in my ballet class. Two are in their 30's and are both married. One woman has a daughter who also takes ballet at the same studio. It was her daughter that actually got her mother to take ballet!! The other woman is about 20 and is a college student. She is light-years beyond me in ballet training and much better than the other two women. It is obvious that she has many years in the pink tights!!

The teacher is a wonderful woman named Pamela who is a well trained ballerina who has danced with several ballet compamies. She is in her mid 30's and has more or less retired from performing and now concentrates on teaching. She is quite a cute doe-eyed woman with long blonde hair and (of course) a killer set of legs!! She always wears black cut off tights, a black camisole leotard a pink sweater and white ballet slippers. Her paitience is very much appreciated. She is not a screamer, nor does she embarrass her students. She could really ride me about being an old, overwieght, out of shape clutz, but instead, she is always full of kind advise.

You are correct in your assumption that wearing tights looses its charm when class begins. I wear Capezio men's ballet tights and I absolutely HATE them!! I'd much rather wear tights made of Lycra-Spandex or Supplex instead of heavy and hot Nylon. If I continue (which I plan to!!) I will look into getting better tights, or try wearing a unitard.

I strongly advise every guy into tights to give ballet a try. Why just dream of dancing with women wearing tights? You can do it!! If a guy like me can try it, so can you. Give it a try, you won't be sorry!!!
