Summary Carina Ari (1897-1970) started her remarkable career at the Royal Opera in Stockholm. Her mother had entered her at the ballet school, which offered poor girls a chance to obtain free education. Ballet training at the Royal Opera was rigorous. Dancers became proficient in a rather stiff, classical 19th century style. One person who opened up new roads at an early stage was the ingenious Michel Fokine, a regenerator of ballet, whom the Opera had judiciously brought to Stockholm for guest performances in 1913 and 1914.
