Wash it away💧 …….

"Body image" is the way that someone perceives their body and assumes that others perceive them. This image is often affected by family, friends, social pressure and the media.

Approximately 91% of women are unhappy with their bodies and resort to dieting to achieve their ideal body shape. Unfortunately, only 5% of women naturally possess the body type often portrayed by others in the media.

58% of college-aged girls feel pressured to be a certain weight.

In a survey, more than 40% of women and about 20% of men agreed they would consider cosmetic surgery in the future. The statistics remain relatively constant across gender, age, marital status, and race.

As I’m sure you agree the facts listed above are both shocking and deeply worrying, body image is something the most people I meet suffer or have suffered with, and we want to try and change that.

Loving your body in all its beauty is not an easy task, there are many contributing factors to why people feel this was. Low self esteem being one if the biggest.

This is something we at TBB try to combat each week in class, supporting your team of dancers, building each other up instead of tearing each other down and promoting body positivity and confidence within is so important, our classes have become a life line and support group for so many women.

We want to encourage as many of you as possible to step outside your comfort zones, work as a team, support one another and empower each other to join us on our “wash it away” body confidence photo shoot.

The idea behind it is to show one another that all of our body’s are beautiful regardless of the
