Thats five days a week.
This evolution both for Copeland and the dance company is documented in the new movie,A Ballerinas Tale.

director Nelson George told EW.
Was she gonna come all the way back?
Ill say this, theres no way we couldve predicted where she is now.
But I never doubted [her] getting back on stage.
That I never doubted, because shes one of the strongest people Ive ever met.
My entire career has been working and striving and proving, and its just exhausting.
I want to just enjoy this first season as a principal dancer and really just focus on that…
So now I feel like I can actually sit back and kind of settle in to this position.
