Where it matters most: aesthetic sports

In sports like ballet, gymnastics, dance and figure skating, appearance is part of the performance.

Visible straps can cost points. Some teams and troupes ban bras entirely, leaving athletes with no support at all.

Girls drop out as their bodies change.

Bigger-busted teens and women are excluded, too uncomfortable or lack the confidence to participate.

This is where the SupportEveryBody innovation was born, and where its impact is most urgent.
