oh but their not, i mean they do take ballet to aid their gym and their not ballerinas but that doesn't mean that their dancing isn't actually "dancing"

I always find gymnasts floor routines a bit wooden. They have flexibility in thier favour but they're not dancers. They may do ballet but it doesn't make them dancers. They do it to aid thier art. They also arch thier backs a lot when they pose before a tumble!

I take 2 ballet classes a week along with another of forms of dance, but we get TONS of gymnasts and ex-gymnasts and they always do very well because of their flexibility but they seem to have some trouble when it comes to pointe because their ankles are super flexible and that makes it harder for pointe work...

yep, most gymnasts take ballet classes within their gymnastics for the grace and stuff in their floor routines!
thing is ballet teachers always hate gymnasts because they don't have the natural "elegance" which basically means they keep their legs dead straight in everything and hold their arms wrong!!
but yeah, especially gymnasts like nastia and khorkina,,very very balletic!

you didnt choose the best gymnasts for this i reckon, nastia and svetlana are great, but oksana omelianchik, dominique moceanu and maybe lilia podkoyeva should be included.

yeah, i wanted to show that you don't have to be the typical "elegant" gymnast to have nice dance elements, and that chunkier tumblers can also create extremely elegant routines with their dance elements:) x
