Why does it have to be gym or ballet? They are both very hard in different ways I am a gymnast but I have many ballerina friends and they are amazing at what they do it is painful and they dance through stress fractures just as we train through stress fractures they spend hours and hours training for the ballet just as we spend hours and hours training for competitions. True, a ballerina would not be able to throw a double back but a gymnast could never get up on point and do what they can do!

@BalletGirl312 Uhm ballerinas don't have to run full speed at stationary objects. Ballerinas don't have to peal skin the size of quarters off their hands. Ballerinas don't have to risk their lives to tumble and throw themselves twisting through the air. Ballerinas don't have to dance and flip on a 4 inch piece of wood. I'm sorry, what's harder?

@AlmostFamous1035 you kinda ripped off the movie stick it with the first couple of sentences.

@AlmostFamous1035 gymnast dont need to stand on there toes with a shoe on that has a piece of wood on the end of it, gymnast dont need to be perfectly on beat with others bc in dance u have to match other 15 people, gymnast dont need to remember 5 -10 numbers each around 4minutes long, yes gymnastics is hard but so is being a ballerina, they are both hard and you should not compare im not trying to be mean but u clearly dont understand how hard dance is unless you become one

@sammihart1326 I thought it was metal o.o Or at least the beams my gym uses are metal.

5:30 ! XD

[sammihart1326]

@AlmostFamous1035 uh... not to burst your bubble there, but we dont use wood on our beams any more. it's a type of plastic. o.o

@BalletGirl312 um excuse me yes you could prove that by going to gym and looking in and seeing all of them train!!! yes ballet is hard and you have train alot but i didnt meen gymnasts are better its just that we are both working hard and you have you have to train alot and it is hard both ballet and gymnastics there i made my point.....done??? ok good bye!!

[kimmiily]

This argument about which is harder frankly doesn't make sense.Gymnast spend hours a day training working through pain and depending on the gymnastics for example rhythmic gymnastics they go ballet training too but harder and ballerinas do what most could never achieve in a life time.them along side gymnast are some of the most hardworking,determined people there r.They literally put their lives a stake every single day they defy gravity and things most of only wish we could. They r both amazing

@AlmostFamous1035 you're right ballerinas dont have to peal skin the size of quarters off their hands... they have to pull it off their feet! both are very hard! i do ballet and trust me... it is not easy! some gymnasts are as flexible as ballerinas so don't go calling it easy

[equine247]

@gymnastjaiderz they're both extremely hard i do ballet and depending on the level, ballerinas do just as much hours of work as gymnasts.
