Does Gymnastics Affect Ballet?

Question:

Does Gymnastics Affect Ballet?

I'm considering starting Gymnastics, but I've been told that it'll negatively affect my ballet performance, because it makes you muscular rather than the wispy look that is a distinct look of Ballet. I've been doing ballet for 10 years, and am considering going pro. Will Gymnastics make it harder to train at the Royal Ballet School, considering the thing they care most about after skill is aesthetics?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: There is that chance - but the extra muscle strength might be a good thing.

Good luck!!!
