Dance Nutrition 101 - Menstruation is an important milestone

How many of you have heard a sigh or faced the disappointed look from a teacher or someone you look up to when you told them your period has started? Those reactions are wrong. Menstruation, the commencement of it and the monthly hello's, is a gift! It means that your body is growing healthily and that you are capable of building a stronger body. Having your period means your bones won't go fragile at 28 years of age, a peak time in your dance career. So celebrate it, talk about it, and be open about it.  Fumi x
