Part memoir, part dance history and ethnography, this critical study explores ballet''s power to inspire and to embody ideas about politics, race, women''s agency, and spiritual experience.

The author knows that dance relates to life in powerful individual and communal ways, reflecting culture and embodying new ideas.

Although ballet can appear (and sometimes is) elite and exclusionary, it also has revolutionary potential.
