Beschreibung
Learn how to thrive in intense, competitive environments with these secrets from one of America's premiere ballerinas-and get a sneak peek at what her life is really like.

Ballet may look glamorous and effortless to audience members, but it requires grueling discipline. It's a competitive and physically and mentally demanding career that combines elite athleticism, artistry, and performance. Not only do dancers rehearse for six to eight hours a day before performing at night, but they also must make it all look easy!

As a principal ballerina with New York City Ballet and a one-time Broadway star-not to mention a mother of three and an MBA student-Megan Fairchild is all too familiar with these challenges. In The Ballerina Mindset, she shares all the wisdom she's learned from her nearly two-decade career, drawing upon her own experiences to show us how she learned to overcome challenges ranging from stage fright to negative feedback to a packed calendar to weight management-and how we can do the same. Inspiring, warm, and revelatory, The Ballerina Mindset is the perfect how-to guide for dancers, athletes, artists, and anyone struggling to stay sane in a high-pressure environment.

Über den Autor
Megan Fairchild is a principal dancer with New York City Ballet. After moving from Utah to New York City at the age of sixteen to study ballet full-time, she was offered an apprenticeship with NYCB, and was promoted to principal--the highest rank--just three years later. In 2014, she took a temporary leave from NYCB to play the lead role, Miss Turnstiles, in the Broadway musical On the Town. She is also the host of the YouTube series Coversations with Megan, a former brand ambassador for Cole Haan, and an MBA student at NYU's Stern School of Business.
Zusammenfassung
ROLE MODEL: Megan is beloved in the ballet and Broadway communities, with 48,000 highly engaged Twitter followers and her own podcast, Ask Megan, in which she gives advice to young dancers who write to her asking for tips. All of her advice here, from transcendental meditation to balanced eating to preparing for a Plan B career, is achievable, healthy, and spot-on.

BEHIND-THE-SCENES DETAILS: The book is packed with never-before-revealed details about Megan's training, early years in the company, and marriage and subsequent divorce from a fellow dancer, which her fans will love and which will make this a magnet for media attention.

PERFECT GIFT: We're publishing in time for the holidays and for #NewYearNewYou because this is the perfect gift for dancers, dance lovers, performing artists, and athletes.

MARKET: Our closest comp, Misty Copeland's Ballerina Body, has sold 34,000+ copies-but focuses only on advice for those wanting to obtain and maintain a dancer's physique, while Megan addresses the potential physical, mental, AND emotional obstacles of a high-stress career.
