I'm 1.55 m and i want to dance ballet. what's the ideal weight?

I think they generally prefer a BMI of 17.5-18, which is extremely low. I'm converting your height to be just under five feet, six inches...or four feet, six inches? I'm not sure, but to calculate BMI you find your height in inches, squared (i.e. multiply height in inches by height in inches), then you divide your weight by the height number. Multiply the resulting number by 705 and the total should be a two-digit number with a couple hundred decimal places. Average BMI is 20-25. As I said the ballet standard tends to be VERY low. Don't do anything unhealthy if your body doesn't reach it naturally through diet and exercise.
