Women Train Like Professional Dancers For A Month

[@delaneystrotman2491]

I'm a dancer myself, this dance teacher was actually nicer then some of the dance teachers I've had. There are diffrent types of dance teachers who have diffrent methods of teaching his method was more strict and some dancers thrive under criticism but others don't ether way I think all there work paid of and they did amazing.

[@hr-qv6wm]

Same sometimes after a dance class my dance techer will just flat out say that our class did aweful and make up dance it until we feel like we are about to pass out. But I still love dance. And so many people don't realise how dance requires so much commitment and communication.

[@yuqigao4860]

I used to have dance Teachers a lot more scary than this and now am having teachers who are really nice. But you do progress faster with the harsh ones, provided you don’t give up.

[@cometwolf1130]

Agreed it might sound harsh yet thats what literally keeps yall up and runin

[@helenameadows9080]

I completely agree. Having a variety of dance teachers, whether mean or nice, enables you to have more experience and a higher employability

You don't always have to make everything sexy to make a dance good btw, i made this comment almost 3 years ago, i don't completely agree with my comment anymore. I am not judging them at all, i think if they are confident that is all that matters.

[@katherinelin480]

I personally dislike sexy dances. I’ll rather see a cute kpop dance with a lot of energy

[@athenaaaaq]

The choreographer needed to encourage the girls more. I didn’t here one nice or good comment other than the girl choreographer and that doesn’t help the dancer. Dancers need encouragement to get through tough dancers. I get that they were being strict but not one complement is bad. I’ve seen a dancer for 9 years now and it feels amazing to know that you get something right and hear that from your dance teacher.

[@waitwhat5699]

It’s called corrections, and corrections aren’t supposed to be nice or mean. They are criticized to help them try to be better. Check yourself before u wreck yourself

[@Oldbebe123]

Wait what check out Ashley's video correction but also encouraging to find themselves and feel Happy about themselves. Use what they have to their advantage

[@elliswestreich8578]

Dragon_ Fruit•-• i really agree. i am a competitive dancer who dances 12 hours a week and i not only get “work on this” but also “great job on that”. i think their “mental breakdowns” were mostly because they were only getting thing that they need to do better and no positivity.

[@jessicatatum7769]

I've trained in a competitive ballet environment for 10+ years. It's all mental. l'm over the moon if the teacher pays personal attention to me with a correction. Getting told you actually look awful doing a step and getting it fixed is AMAZING. It means that they care about your improvement, harsh or not. However, I also feel like they edited out a lot content from their rehearsals, and I highly doubt that there was no praise given at all.

[@jillianoconnor4016]

that's what good dance teachers do. they're not trying to make you sad or anything they're trying to make you a better dancer

[@kristimichelle7529]

i did like this video, but i think that they were a little rude on how their bodies and physical features look.

[@Shayla.r]

[@elizabethyun3189]

Well as sad and unfortunate as it may be that's what the actual dance world is like. A lot of teachers and companies are very harsh and are super picky. As amazing as dance is, it really takes a huge mental and physical toll.

[@abidale.jonafin28]

Kendall Parsons fr though

[@kirabourbon]

They were criticizing their bodies, they were criticizing how they USED their bodies in the dance

[@cassidydeneau7076]

People are saying the choreographers were too harsh on them, but the whole point was that they train like "professional dancers" As in the type that get to dance with celebrities. And thats the reality of it. They have every aspect of their body criticized and looked at to see how it can be better, and they have to take it and use that to improve, because thats their job.

[@its_a_poncho]

Thank you! Honestly I would even say Robert was being very gentle on them. Other professional teachers go much more harsher to teach professional damcers

[@CutiieDeviilX3]

I much prefer Ashleys transformation, the environment they were in just felt so forced and horrible rather than learning how to move your body and get better. It shows in their end result how they were trained for the month

[@monikas.6536]

I totally agree with you! And I also feel like the tittles for this two videos should be swapped. Ashley really trained like a professional (practising everyday, positive attitude, dealing with the corrections like a real dancer, taking technique classes). This video shows a lot struggles of begginer amateur dancers (learning to get togheter, to take critiques, to deal with insecurities), which is great, but I wouldn't call taking 3 classes a week a professional training.

[@cookiesarelikecream]

I agree. I feel like for this specific environment it’s not beneficial to make beginner and newbie dancers train like professionals who have years of dancing experience. People who train in this setting know basic moves and footwork and how to move their body confidently. The harsh criticism isn’t going to help if they aren’t at the level the choreographers are expecting them to be. Ashley’s dance environment was perfect for a beginner because it required learning and more basic moves. However, I do understand that the point of this video is to show how professional dancers train and how tough it is. Especially when you’re dancing in a group because you have to be in sync. Hopefully this won’t scare or turn off newbies from wanting to learn how to dance

[@miraculouslb_fan8468]

I know you think that this environment isn’t beneficial for newbies but that’s how it works in the dance world. Also most people start learning at the age of 3 or so there aren’t many 20 or so year olds starting to learn how to dance.

[@CutiieDeviilX3]

Mmm but thats the problem with industries, people go along with it and just say this is how it is... There really needs to be a change in the way people are treated and "encouraged" if you can call it that...

[@karenprudencio2934]

I agree buh this was training like professionals not newbies

[@AKam-gb3qi]

As a person who started dance at 19, everyone around me had been dancing for years and years, many even for a decade, and I was a literal toddler amidst a crowd of experienced adults, in both physicality and mentality. So I really connected with these girls' emotional struggles, those things are what you face when you start dancing. For those of you criticizing, don't forget that you had a start too. These girls were complete amateurs and to ask them to instantly hone the mentality of a professional dancer, which is like that of metal steel, is unfair. We should really applaud them for their effort and big jump out of their comfort zone.

You started dance at 19? Man, I don't have the guts to do dance again even though I'm 15.

[@spinalc0rds]

The difference of environment of this video compared to Ashly's is incredible. I don't know if it's because these girls had "more experience" or if it's the editing but dance is about sharing and having fun just as much as it is about precision and elegance. That part didn't really shine through and it's sad.

[@damaris_mx]

This “coaching” or “leadership” needs be called out on. I’m halfway through the video and first of all, I have not heard one encouraging comment from any of them, except the woman. Instead of harshly critiquing, why don’t they praise the girls for the good they’re doing and helping them work on their flaws, geez

[@purrchouli]

Damaris M yeah I really didn't like this dude.

[@akodo77]

The video shows something like 5 minutes of training from probably 40+ hours. They put in criticism because it builds more drama.

[@chimichanga2698]

Criticism helps dancers, singers, artists, ect. It lets you know what to improve on. You need to have a backbone to be in the visual arts, I know cause Im a singer and artist. Youre CONSTANTLY having yourself critiqued by others but that is a good thing, so you don't sound/seem average but A M A Z I N G. You cant be soft in this industry.

[@川畑徹-x4e]

Totally agree with you! This is not a "let's have fun while dancing" class! The title says it all: "Women Train Like Professional Dancers For A Month" They probably had some words o encouragement but criticism makes the video more interesting

[@elias1818]

WELCOME TO COMPETITIVE DANCING. They don't care how good you are, you can always be better. As a competitive dancer I cried multiple times from the critique I got. You have to be better otherwise your not good. But they critique you because they want to see you succeed. Sorry to say but that coach was actually nice compared to my old one. Experience is how you are able to see how they were trained in this video. Unless you literally make a move COMPLETELY flawless, you will not get any compliments. You learn to deal as a dancer because for every 10 nos, your gonna get one yes.

I can give advice to just about everyone else to help them be themselves and do well,but when it comes to myself, it is a never ending battle. Seeing this video made me actually really happy. To know that others see how hard it really is and it shows the mental and emotonal component of it is amazing. Many people dont understand the hard work and dedication it takes to do this all.

I dont interact with many people, and although I'm all for critique, I find i'll get emotional if its not worded in a polite way.

I wish that I had built up that confidence when I was younger, since I have social anxiety now, and although I'm trying to overcome it, it makes small things like criticism so much harder for me.

Jazzmyne needs a Parris Goebel binge watch session and realize how lucky she is for looking like such a diva just like Parris. That woman is one of my favourite choreographers/dancers ever. It has nothing to do with your figure or your hair. If anything Jazz and Parris stand out more which I think is a pro, not a con at all. Hey Jazzmyne, if you ever see this, please watch some of her videos you'll love it and I think it will change your point of view!

[@beccascaredycat8490]

But that's the moment, when you can show them, that you rock even though you aren't tiny or skinny or anything like "the others". And if you fail, fail with grace and with an attitude that says "I'm still better than you'll ever be" because you probably are. (I know what I'm talking about, I'm 5'7 and 175lbs, I was always the "big one" in my dancing group)

[@egeceler7024]

Anna I feel you. I danced too and believe me, with girls who look like ballerinas. So I know that feeling. But it's sad that you have given up on your passion because of that. Nobody is perfect but it shouldn't be an excuse for anyone to give anything up. Self love is important. Don't let negative thoughts stand in your way. Plus, I find it boring when every single member of the group looks alike. Okay, so maybe you know your "difference", how about embracing it?

But since I don't have anywhere to take class, it's been difficult to get back. I've lost a lot of my strength and flexibility. I'm so proud of these girls. I can relate to their insecurities and what they went through. I've also cried, I've also been picked apart piece by piece, insecurity by insecurity. Dance is relentless. I can tell they put in a ton of both physical and emotional work. And it paid off. I'm so proud. Thank you for showing me dance is still possible.

I have danced since I was 4-5 so 6-7 years and it's hard work! I would be lying if I said that I haven't cried before and exam or show, there's just so much pressure and if you mess up you mess everyone up! I loved the teacher so much because he reminds me of my ballet teacher! She makes us work hard and she HATES wimps! You can NOT be a wimp in her class! This video so amazing and one of my favourite videos ever. Edit: Wow okay first I would like to thank you for over 2 k likes, that's amazing, and second, yes I believe dance is an art form too, it's both a sport and an art. Dance is also a way of expressing yourself, no matter if you've never danced a day in your life or have been doing it your whole life! Dance is hard and I'm not saying that your going to be amazing on the first day but saying that you don't need to be experienced to have fun, and having fun is the most important part of dance if it's a sport or not.

I am a 11 year old professional dancer. I have preformed in the Nutcracker 4 times and we start training in July for the show in December. Dancing is so much harder then people think. I also take dance class 3 times a week for jazz, contemporary and ballet. Imagine being 11 and constantly being criticized and critiqued about your body and every single move that you make. So, next time you see a dancer and he/she is just working it up on that stage, you gotta think: Wow. Cause all that work that goes into that one or two shows is incredible. Please appreciate dancers and the amazing shows we put on. ❤️

Yeah, they were a little harsh at times but that is honestly what most dance teachers are like. They will tear you down and pick on your every insecurity and still except you to get on that stage. Dance is so mentally and physically draining, you really have to be strong to do it for a long time.

Although it comes across rude, their hard critiques that are meant to better the performance (This happens in all occupations but especially in dance, it is a hard sport that calls for a lot of "perfection"). I do agree that both of them could have been a bit nicer due to the girls being relatively new to dance however the teachers, being professional dancers/choreographers, have been conditioned to tell the truth to better their performance (sometimes the things that seem most brutal cause the most change). The girls all killed at the end despite their previous experience so all the instruction given helped. I personally know this to be true because I take dance myself too.

They wanted to train like dancers. That is how we are trained. There are specific ways to do things and if they do wrong then they need to be called out. It's not mean its bettering them.

These girls did this for a month and by week three they were really struggling with the mental game and that's only doing one style! I do all styles, all day, everyday. Mentally it's challenging but I feel like when I tell people that I'm mentally struggling that always say "why its only dancing" but try being put down for your body imagine everyday, having to stare at your body and insecurities in a mirror and the constant rejection of the industry. People always ask me "if you’re feeling like that and are being told those things why do you still do it" but it's the love for what I do and being on stage that gets me through everyday.

[@squeezie_b8895]

No one asked you. What do you think gives you the right to comment about other people’s bodies or their health? You’re not their doctor, you’re nothing and no one to them.

[@kiiolz]

I feel like I just watched a episode of KIUWTK combined with Dance Moms

[@alondraorozco3897]

*-Samiha-* Same here

[@fruitsnack_6286]

Truuu

[@emilyesnyman]

I don't think the instructors did ANYTHING for the dancer's confidence, and they were just rude overall. Not my vibe. The dancers were great tho, I'm proud of them for sticking it out

[@carly3963]

[@kelsey5440]

My cousins dance everyday, and they’re still not professionals

[@noahgarcia4161]

40 hours a day

[@doublecheeseburger8708]

As a dancer I know exactly how they feel having their bodies being critiqued like that so much. Especially when you have an exam. You just want to cry after every practise. Your told every one of ur insecurities. If you can't do it as well as everyone else they make sure you know it. If ur not flexible then girl don't expect to be having a solo or being in the middle or front. Be prepared for humiliation in front of ur whole class. People don't realise that it doesn't just make you physically tired but mentally and it's harder than it looks!

[@scremmy_draws]

Me too! i was a ballet dancer for 11 years (im 14) and i would have my body critiqued ALL THE TIME! i would cry after practice and still kept taking classes until i was 13

[@CrystalVaporeon44]

what kind of dance schools are these?! to critic a dancer's body... our body types are no thing to get in our way, i am a dancer too a bellydancer, the only thing that had made me cry is the told i been doing a move wrong in time, but that was just a moment and had to pass it, we are disciplined to be on time, follow the rythm memorize harmonize with the partners, practice to the end and the smile wich is important, respect to eachother and jealousy is never welcome, the body Never had been critized, for any detail there be a solution with the costume and the one who gets to be in front just need to be the best dancer on each coreography and all of us get a spot.

[@carinemcdonald2500]

cherrina44 you have to be sharp and pretty much perfect in Russian ballet that's why I like Cecchtti ballet instead

[@felicityrose4544]

Same here! You can get told to diet and all (I've heard it sadly!) it brings all your insecurities out and it's absolutely heartbreaking! I've been a dancer in all styles since I was 2 and now 15 on a competitive team

[@oliviasucato3069]

ive danced since i was 2 and i'm not the most flexible, i never have been, so im never in the front or middle, and my teachers always yell at me and it makes me so mad that people dont think dance is a sport

[@luvnoel_va]

[@laurenkate9432]

Dalia Velazquez Safiya doesn't work at BuzzFeed anymore. I'm gonna assume she left before this was filmed.

[@dancestar1017]

Lauren Kate she left over a year and a half ago she just wanted to make sure that all the prefilmed videos were out before she told us on her KZbin channle

[@westanimalexxshairline7889]

This whole thing was filmed like a trailer

[@alfieandme8383]

Being a dancer that has danced ballet for twelve years with three different companies, I can tell you how hard it is mentally and physically. The amount of times I woke up with sore muscles or break downs over solo's and etc, dance is difficult. I respect people who take part in dance and I really want to spread awareness over the fact that dance is not easy and takes a lot of practice, sweat and tears. To finish this off there is no such thing as a perfect dancer, every dancer has something to perfect, never give up xx :)

[@katecariaga7654]

Alfie and me i agree, i dedicate my heart body and soul to ballet, even with those emotional breakdowns, it is always worth it in the end, doing what i love to do.

[@alfieandme8383]

Exactly

[@alfieandme8383]

You are NEVER too old to start dance, you would have to work hard to get up to a standard level but its worth it :)

[@ayluwh]

This is so relatable that I screenshoted it😂🙌🏼💯

[@madison.m5949]
