From an early age Misty was fond of dancing, but the ballet school felt that at age 13 it was too late to start, and her physique “not for ballet”. And despite this, after receiving a scholarship to study at the dance school, Copeland in 15 years wins a prestigious dance competition. She was admired, but also clearly hinted that the color of her skin can be a serious obstacle to success.
In addition, as a result of puberty Misty Copeland’s body began to go beyond the ballet parameters: broad shoulders, large Tits, athletic body… And she was offered a “stretch out”. But “stretch out” with this physique was difficult, because to change the physique, which is inherent in nature, and really it is not under force.
