The teacher tells Bianca at dance class, “Tight tummy, long neck!” as she heads to the barre looking uneasy.
The mirror then cracks around her and she has to deal with looking at her own reflection multiple times, before going into her own world with her love of dance.

Disney has introduced its first plus-size heroine in a new short on its streaming platform.
Reflect, which is part of Disney’s Short Circuit series of experimental films, follows Bianca, a young ballet dancer who is struggling with her reflection because of low self-esteem and body dysmorphia.
In the film, directed by Hillary Bradfield, Bianca’s teacher can be seen reminding her to have a “tight tummy!” and a “long neck!” while she stands in position at the barre.
Bianca is then seen gradually grows in confidence and steeling herself to continue with her ballet class.
Bradfield has worked as an animation artist on Frozen 2 and Encanto – the latter introduced Disney’s first princess with glasses.
Reflect arrived on Disney Plus on 14 September, but is now gaining a new online fanbase.
One tweeted: “Sixteen-year-old me needed this Disney short before I quit ballet because I didn’t want to...
