Isabella Boylston, The Prima Ballerina Making It All Look Easy

In an eight-part video series, created in partnership with GE Appliances, we tapped nine incredible women to hear their refreshingly candid insights on how they turned their passions into successful careers-whether it’s making wild pastry confections or the most flattering pair of jeans. bit.ly/2vh2gvS
In the ballet Swan Lake, Isabella Boylston is tasked with completing 32 fouetté turns in a row. Yes, 32. It’s no wonder the 31-year-old principal dancer with the American Ballet Theatre spends close to nine hours a day rehearsing and working out. Boylston’s world-class athletic abilities and captivating Instagram feed are just the tip of the iceberg. bit.ly/2vh2gvS

Her technique is spectacular, but what I really love is her artistry.

I love the "top ten ballet companies in the US" statement. It is touted around so frequently yet there is no decisive list. ABT is no doubt correctly on that "list" but in general you can barley read any ballet article on a company without that line being used.

I see so many positives in IB: bubbly positivity, exceptionally physically talented, hard worker, enthusiasm, openness. She embodies all the healthy emotional ideals we could all aspire to. Thank you IB! love you!

Am I the only one who thinks she looks like Spencer from pretty little lairs?

Are Ballerinas making better money these days and does the company pay for their pointe shoes?
