Best Answer

Ballet is a very challenging sport. It is hard to compare it to outdoor sports, because, in Soccer (for example) you must run around in muddy conditions. In ballet, you have a heated studio. Ballet is completley un-natural to the human body, other sports are natural. If you do not have sought after turn-out in your hips, Ballet will be very challenging as you must take time to work the hips into a more turned-out position. This is all very un-natural. With pointe shoes, you are dancing on the very tip of your toes. This is one of THE MOST challenging aspects of Ballet. Ballet takes dedication, flexibility, and performing ability. If you mess-up on stage, you must make it appear as if nothing at all happened. And you must do this in front of hundreds or even thousand of people. So inconclusion, YES ballet is one of the most challenging sports.

Was ballet originally for males or females?

It was originally designed, as all sports and most things back in the dark ages, for men only. But this is back when ballet wasn't really... "ballet." Ballet like it is now. Evolution is a natural process for anything. But ballet was originally ballroom dancing in big, heavy, clunky costumes. The shoes had heels and they were like work-boots. Over time, ballet became lighter, most graceful. Acrobatic. Gymnastic. And thus it became more of a sport for women. One that the women themselves would really be more equipped for, to excel at. It was for the boys... then it was ALL about the girls.But... the boys seem to be finding their way back in.
