Dare to Go Bare Legged
Balanchine was the first to show off dancers' bodies in all their exposed glory with his leotard-and-tights ballets. These days, contemporary costumes offer even less coverage. Edgy ballet choreographers seem to be obsessed with bare legs right now. What's a dancer to do if she's got some dimples on the back of her thighs? Flush cellulite away by getting your body's lymph fluid moving with a few minutes a day in an inverted yoga pose—a shoulder stand, a head stand, even resting your legs up the wall. Anything that gets your feet above your heart will help. Women's Health has a fantastic explanation of why it works, plus a couple of beginner's poses to try.
