Well, it's a pretty ambiguous question, but if we're talking who changed Ballet from 18th century tradition to what it is today, it would have to be Sylvie Guillem. Before her, nobody'd seen the 180 degree develope and nobody'd really been exposed to the "tricks" that are so common today. Today ballet's a freak show-- and I don't mean that in a derrogatory sense, but Sylvie Guillem certainly changed what's given merit these days as opposed to what once was given merit. If that makes sense.

Has ballet stayed the same?

Actually, ballet has changed dramatically over the years. In the 1500 to 1600, "ballet" was more of a ballroom dance. Also, they didn't use stages of platforms until the later 1600. Another thing is that in the early 1600, ballet was mainly for men. The women wore tight corset, long, heavy skirts, and wigs. Because of this they could only move from pose to pose. To learn more, go to my website: www.theworldofballet.webs.com!Yes ballet has stayed pretty much the same. Ballet dancing is hunreds of years old and has hardly changed at all.


Where was ballet first discovered?

Ballet was never really 'discovered'. Instead, it grew and changed from what it was to what we know today. The predecessor to ballet started during the Renaissance in Italy. It then migrated to France. What we consider ballet today, however, really started in France with Louis the 14th. I'm not going to give you the entire story, but there's a really excellent history of ballet here;http://www.ccs.neu.edu/home/yiannis/dance/history.html
