Ballet is a unique blend of both artistry and athleticism. The dancer’s ability to have complete control over his or her body requires profound balance, coordination, strength and flexibility. My guest today is former professional ballerina, Susannah Cotrone and her love of ballet began at the tender age of three. By the time Susannah discovered Pilates, she’d already been dancing for eleven years.
