Jenifer Ringer, a principal dancer with the New York City Ballet, was thrust into the headlines after her weight was commented on by a New York Times critic, and her response ignited a public dialogue about dance and weight. Ballet aficionados and aspiring performers of all ages will want to join Ringer behind the scenes as she shares her journey from student to star and candidly discusses both her struggle with an eating disorder and the media storm that erupted after the Times review. An unusually upbeat account of life on the stage, Dancing Through It is also a coming-of-age story and an inspiring memoir of faith and of triumph over the body issues that torment all too many women and men.
Jenifer is now the Director of the Colburn Dance Academy, a pre-professional ballet training program in Los Angeles. We are very honored to have her speak at {pages}. RSVP’s recommended. Call 310-318-0900 or email us at info@pagesabookstore.com
We hope this event is of interest of you.
Thank you, in advance for your consideration.
Jane Guthrie
