What color are your favorite ballet tights?
As a guy I usually wear black, but I have worn pink, and I would have to say that they are my favorite.

well in class DUH! i LOVE black. sometimes i think my dark side likes to surface while dancing with my black tights, black leo, black leg warmers, and black skirt. but not all the time.

ummmm but for other color tights besides black i ONLY wear european pink. which is basically white-ish. its more like an off white, or cream.
HA! im trying to describe the color of my dance tights.
LOVES IT!
=)

Ballet tight hands down & if your a beginner i recommend canvas ballet shoes. As for exercises....create a workout for yourself to do every day whenever you want to improve your flexibility. Im also a ballet dancer - since the age of 5 :) every evening about an hour after my dinner i do like a 30 - 60 min workout. Including a 5 minute jog on the spot knees up warm up, then crunches/sit ups about 50 - 100 {but you can do less if your a beginner & just make a higher target every week etc) then i sit in a straddle position on the floor for about 10 minutes, moving my legs further out every 2 or so minutes (i do this while watching tele/reading a book/listening to music) i then do certain stretches to improve flexibility & then try splits (cant quite do them yet) then i focus on my back. You can look up stretches for different areas of your body on the internet but it's no good just doing them quickly, you have to hold the stretches & breathe through the pain. Just create your own personal workout and do it whenever you like. Helps to have music going on in the background as well :) Hope this helps you & good luck x

I also have taken dance class and usually wore balack tights with a white leotard. However I did find a nice pair of grey thights made by Danskin. Ttis was serveral years ago and they were a blue tinted grey and really looked nice and I thought they looked good on a man. I never wore them for a preformance but they lasted several years for class and even as long underware in winter under my dress clothes.

I've been dancing since I was 3. And for me, I love pink tights, they make the line with pointe shoes seamless. I like the tights with seams, they make the leg look longer. Overall, I think tights should match the shoe to elongate the leg and match the costume.

Well..I like pink tights for myself, but black ones are probably the best for class.

White for performances....the white color draws attention to your legs and their movement. For class/rehearsal - black (it doesn't show the dirt and sweat as badly).
WTF is up with the commnet on pink tights? I've been around ballet for 40 years and have NEVER EVER seen pink tights on a danseur - performances or class/rehearsal. Comments like yours make me think you some kind of troll....

the best colour to see a sexy ballerina in is pink tights
- they look sexy; with or without the leotard (that has to be black)

for men i'd say the best colour is possibly black tights
- they look more masculine: with a white t-shirt
