A member asked:
Is it possible to do exercises to have arched back like ballerina?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Some ballerinas have an exaggerate curve in their back called "sway back". You can do exercises and stretches to improve your own body and will get health benefits from them. It is not a good idea to do something to look like someone else as that does not take into account the uniqueness of your own body. As you exercise for yourself you may find that you have achieved your goal...
