India, Nov. 12 -- Starting at the age of five, actor Tara Sutaria trained as a ballerina for over a decade. On World Ballet Day today, she shares how the discipline and training continue to guide her every day: "I learnt from the pioneer of classical ballet in India, Mrs Tushna Dallas. She trained several known names, including (choreographer) Shiamak Davar. My training completely shaped how I sit and stand, walk and talk, how I present myself and greet people. All the grace and poise I possess come from my ballet training." The 29-year-old adds that it helps her professionally, too. "Today, I can learn dance routines for my films within minutes thanks to my dance training. My body is accustomed to learning dance quickly because of muscle memory," she shares. As a child, she would go to ballet class with her sister, Pia, straight from school. "We used to change into our ballet clothes and tie our hair into a bun in the car while doing homework. Tushna ensured there wasn't a hair out of place. It taught us discipline." Calling ballet "for everyone," Tara concludes, "There's no gender attached to it. The athleticism required is more than most sports."...
