What (Three of Our Favorite) Ballerinas Eat In a Day

July 26, 2016

Pulling back the curtain on tried and true ballerina habits never gets old. We’ve pored over the contents of New York City Ballet dancers’ travel cases (Weird heating pads! Notes from fans!), drooled over American Ballet Theatre principal Isabella Boylston’s amazing style, (Helloooo 70s flair!), received our daily dose of #fitspo from international ballerinas with enviable workout gear (Black and neon, together, forever.) and gone completely bonkers for the delicious diets of the women at the National Ballet of Canada (Homemade kombucha. ‘Nuff said.).

Now it’s time to whip out our notebooks once more, because New York City Ballet principals Sara Mearns and Megan Fairchild, along with corps member Gretchen Smith, have revealed what they eat in a day. Aside from being co-stars in two absolutely stunning Cole Haan advertising campaigns, these lovely ladies know what it takes to fuel their bodies for weeks of hard dancing. Check it out below, and the full story here:
