I've worked with more than one dancer chasing a very specific look for their feet and extension (and arabesque, and, and, and). More than once, that quest has come with a nagging injury that took months to quiet down, and the flexibility they wanted never showed up either.
Every one of these dancers had "good" bodies for ballet. What they wanted, though, wasn't their own good body. It was someone else's, seen through a screen.
