mso-bidi-font-family:Arial;color:black">In some sports
competitions, to
"have a handicap" is a sign of excellence. For some of us,
wearing a

mso-bidi-font-family:Arial;color:black">Professional dance,
still largely
perceived as the place of the "perfect" body, is however opening
up,
for many years now, to all kinds of bodies: smaller, thiner,
fatter, taller,
less fit, awkward, less virtuoso, older but the equipment of the
body often
takes the form of a constraint.</span></p>
