    I've been a dancer at social level for 10 years. I don't compete, although I could. The reason I don't compete is because of how competitors behave . They can be over serious, too self consious, often ladies can not be led by a partner as they only know competition routines.
    There is a difference between being assertive and being too controlling.
    Dance is all about expression of emotion through physical movements to the rhythm of music. And dance should be a joy, not a chore to please others.

    I'd like to hear what the abusive comments were in order to make an opinion. The celebrities only have 4 days to learn the dance so they must accept there's going to be a massive amount of pressure to get it right.

    That older man is offensive - according to him - basically it’s ok to be abused and bullied if you’re getting paid well. In an interview Shirley Ballas gave recently she talks very openly about how ‘rife bullying is in the dance world’. She used the word rife.

    From now on Strictly will have only flaky celebrity and diva's that cant be upset. In 2 years, the judges will only be allowed to gove positive comments because someone will get "hurt" otherwise.
    1.Poor/weak society =strong people
    2.Strong people = strong society
    3.Strong society = weak people (we are here with one step in the next phase)
    4.Weak people =weak society

    I agree with most opinions - what just been said , right here. Except - the line - get over it! To go out there , in front of the millions , being not a dancer - and having just a week of training - not for everybody is a doable task. And ,if you have been harassed in any form ....Some people really CAN'T get over it - without professional help.
    Even Caroline Flack wrote , even after winning Strictly - that she couldn't get over the experience - for a long time!! And it's just easy to say how someone should act, feel or behave, but - if you would need to go to do the same - then you say - no, I can't do that. Ridiculous.

      @@Kari_B61ex Even if it's one it's too many - unless you condone physical and verbal abuse? You sound like you think she made it up - even though the professional dancer has already admitted to one kick (she probably had some evidence so he couldn't deny it? He's leaving so the evidence must have been pretty damning. Anyway, it's more than one - Amanda Abbington had bad experiences as well, the disabled contestant who says he was forced to do a jump and there are probably others. Just because it's a popular show you can't pretend these things didn't happen or condone them.
