Enter The World Of A Dancer

What you see on stage in dance is not always the way a dancer's sees it. Let me invite you into the world of a dancer not from an audience point of view, but from the way an average ballerina will see nearly everyday of their life when they are performing on stage...

The beautiful photos on this page and all over the site are photographed by the website's resident artist, Olivia Holland.

Olivia is a leading, young professional ballerina and takes artistic photos all over the world when she is performing. 

Olivia has toured to Paris, Venice, Japan, Belgium and England, so the photos are literally from ALL over the world!

You can discover more about the photographer and dancer Olivia Holland and even see MORE of her ballerina photos. The site is packed with her unique photos, so take a look around and live the life of a dancer!

A theatre becomes a dancer's second home and they get used to seeing every different dressing room, stage and auditorium for each place.

When not on stage, ballet dancer's spend their time back stage in the wings. They are resting and recovering, but mostly always keeping an eye on stage to keep involved with the performance.

Dancers have a lot of performances, which means a lot of preparation. The dressing rooms are an essential place to get everything ready for show. They have to check they have enough pointe shoes, make up and energy to keep them going for all the shows. Whether it is big bottle of water, or stack of bananas, dancers will ALWAYS be prepared!

There is no question that it is an exciting life to be a ballerina. It takes A LOT of hard work to become a professional, but once you are there the rewards can be so fulfilling that it can make it all worth it. Dancers have the chance to travel the world and visit many cities and theatres, they can tour to exciting venues and perform internationally. 

A ballerina is never ready without her precious pointe shoes. The ballet photo below shows just ONE dancer's pairs of shoes! The shoes get used very quickly and every dancer need multiple pairs especially for a busy schedule of shows.
