Left-handed ballet question
My 5-year old daughter is taking ballet right now...she is getting ready for her first performance! I mentioned to her ballet teacher early on that she was left-handed, her teacher said that ballet tends to strenghten both sides. When watching her class rehearse she does everything opposite (example-everyone else circles their ribbons with their right hand counter clock wise, and she circles with her left clockwise). At this stage of the game ballet is all for fun, my questions is how much of a problem is it for lefty's as they get more advanced? I am guessing group performances would be more difficult...
