Kubva ipapo akashanduka kuita mudzidzisi wekutamba ane mukurumbira uye choreograph uye anotora chikamu muzviitiko zvedzidzo zvakaita seInternational Ballet Workshops.

Dai iwe usina kugutsikana kuti mukadzi uyu badass, tarisa mufananidzo wake wepa Instagram, rinova zita rake rakanyorwa mumhando imwecheteyo nedombo bhendi Iron Maiden, pamwe neyunifomu yake yekutamba, iyo ine Nike inomhanya zvikabudura, jet- dema maziso ekugadzira, uye ehe, iyo nguva nenguva tutu ... yaita nenzira yake. Kubva pane anoshamisa makumbo ekuwedzera kune yake yehungwaru musanganiswa wezvechinyakare uye echinyakare choreography, isu taingofanirwa kudzidza zvakawanda nezve uyu rock-nyeredzi mutambi, uye nezvaanotaura nezvekutamba kune kurova kwedhiramu rake uye nekugadzira nzira nyowani yevechidiki vatambi. . (Ah, heck, yevakadzi vese!)

"Ndagara ndiri dema gwai rebhaleti," anodaro Bhatani, nekudada. "Tiri kurarama munyika umo vanhu vanoziva zvishoma nezvedu neimwe nzira vanogara vaine zvakawanda zvekutaura." Uye kunyangwe mushure memakumi maviri emakore muindasitiri yekutamba yehunyanzvi, haasi kurega runako kana huremu hwezviyero zvichimukanganisa. "Kune mamwe maitiro akasimba mukati meindasitiri yangu, asi ndinozviona sematambudziko uye ndinosimba nedambudziko rese."

Anobvuma kuti kumanikidza kuve mutete chinhu chaicho chaicho munyika yake, icho chinogona kukuvadza kune vese variko uye vanoshuvira vatambi. Asi zvinhu zvava kutarisa kumusoro. "Pane nhoroondo yekusagadzikana kwekudya mukati meindasitiri yangu izvo zvese zvisina hutano mumuviri nepfungwa, asi nyika iri kusimukira uye mumakore gumi apfuura ndakaona akasiyana evatambi vakahaiwa," anodaro nezvemutambo mutsva wevatambi vane hunyanzvi. mold mune zvese maitiro uye mhando yemuviri. "Zvinozorodza kuona, kutaura zvishoma."

(Yakabatana: Weightlifter Morgan King Anoregedza Stereotypes.)

Uye iyi "eff iwe" maitiro anofanira kunge achishanda, nekuti yakabatsirwa Bhatani kuva kwete kwete chete mutambi anobudirira asi mukadzi anoziva kunakirwa nehunyanzvi hwekunwa doro uye nesushi yakawanda sezvaanogona kuisa maoko ake pamusoro. #Balance. Ave achizivikanwa nekudzokera shure nedoro mushure mekuita kwakanyanya kune kumwe kudiwa kwakanyanya mupfungwa uye mumuviri.

Kudira ikoko kwakakodzera. Mazuva mazhinji, Bhatani rinoshandisa maawa matanhatu kusvika masere mumakirasi uye kudzidzira uye richiri kuita nguva yekusimudza masimbi panzvimbo yekurovedza nemurume wake. Vaviri ibasa rose-rinosangana-rudo #relationshipgoals, sekutaura kunoita Button murume wake (uyo anofamba naye pakushanya pasirese) anomukurudzira kuti anyatso kunyura mukuda kwake kutamba uye kugamuchira maitiro ake akasiyana. Zvakakodzera, vakatouya neshoko rekutsanangura: antistereotypologist.

Kana Bhatani risiri kusimudza, kutamba, kana kutambanudza, iwe unogona kumuwana achibaya baya mhete. "Ndinoona tsiva ichive chandinofarira kurovedza nekuti chakasiyana chaizvo nebhavhoti," anodaro. Saka nguva inotevera apo chero munhu paanofunga zvekudaidza uyu badass mucheche kungori mumwe prissy ballerina, ivo zvirinani vave vakagadzirira kutora hoko inotyisa.
