Many ballet dancers are afraid to imagine a future without the stage. Each week on Ballet to Business, Jordan Nicole interviews current and former ballet dancers who have created their own small businesses. Within each story, we talk about the hardships fought within the ballet industry, but also the incredible lessons learned along the way. Each guest shares what character traits ballet has instilled within them. These traits have set them up to not only brave, but furthermore succeed in life beyond the stage.
