I am from Bulgaria and I am an astronomer, I work in a planetarium. I have never been a ballerina and I am almost 60 years old. Every morning I listen to your videos. I don't look what movements you show. I just listen to the music and do gymnastics, and jump, and run and dance for 40 minutes. It helps me so much and gives me energy for the whole day. Thank you very, very much!!!

I know it's crazy that we're all doing these ballet classes around the world. I live by Broadway in NYC & I can also see out my window 45 stories high other dancers across the way who workout in their own apartments

[@DutchNatOperaBallet]

Thank you Vera! And everyone for all the great responses. In distance we connect. Stay safe!

[@arnelnacino6754]

This class has taught me, or reminded me, of two things - my short term memory is lousy; and in all these four decades of taking ballet classes, I've been relying too much on the dancer in front of me. Great idea to only to demonstrate on one side, and then make us work to remember the left!

[@cosennet]

Me too! I'm 67 and it is shocking how poor is my recall! When I was 19 it was so obvious. Left side - help! Actually it must be as good for my sad old brain as my sad old body :)

[@CaternotCarter]

Me too! It’s a very long since I did class and my brain was struggling, not to meant my body. But this is such a good way to get us to properly focus and not just follow!

Just go back and do the second side watching the first side. :) That easy! :D

[@sugarplum2467]

I rewind for some exercises but most classes don't have a teacher showing the exercises at all and you just have to copy the person in front of you so it's a good habit to just learn to learn combinations.

[@jiwoosapple7130]

I used to go to ballet classes when I was younger. I'm from a small town, in a country with a lot of difficulties. When I was 11, they stopped teaching ballet at my town and I had to give up on something that I really loved. After a lot of years, I'm still living there, and the other day when I was listening to a Tchaikovsky's piece I had an epiphany, "what if I search for some free class online? ". I'm really glad I founded this, and also I'm really thankful to you and all the team behind these videos. I'm just doing it for fun, but being able to practise something I love after so many years, makes me feel so good that I almost cry every time I think about it, thanks! 💛

[@annan3655]

Bravo for you, just keep pursuing your dream! You are not alone!

[@Joy-do9vv]

Thank you, folks! I've never done ballet in my life, I'm 66 years old, and somehow I decided I wanted to try it. Good thing no one's watching me, trying to point my toes in my living room! Great fun.

[@luciadambrosio]

I'm a pediatrician down in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Ballet has always been a source of energy and happiness to balance all the bad stuff I have to deal with at the hospital. Thank you so much for posting this videos online when I'm needing them the most!

[@skyeoak683]

He actually appreciates the pianist!! That’s so rare in a ballet class and as a musician and a dancer I think this is something more ballet masters should consider.

[@avesraggiana]

Absolutely. It irks me to no end to see some top flight ballet dancers giving class online, and then abruptly cutting off the music (usually prerecorded), just because the exercise they put together is over. Sort of like in the old days, abruptly pulling the needle off a rotating record. Those of us of a certain age will remember what a grating sound that makes.

[@laurendoty2780]

Thank you so much, Rex. I still return to this fabulous barre and superb pianist in 2023.

[@ddazuulada]

Lovely! I also loved that we can see the pianist, the people that make such beautiful music to dance to rarely get featured in videos 💙

[@alitag.327]

I did ballet since I was 4 years old for 12 years. I'm 45 now, had colon cancer stage 4 and recovered and now some metastasis to the brain and just had brain surgery, radio surgery and doing chemo all over again, It is beautiful to have found this free online classes since now everyone is pursuing after making money and have forgoten about giving just for the sake of it. This helps me a lot in my recovery, physically and emotionally and the music, well what can I say, I adore classical music and piano music has been a companion throughout my life. I really appreciate and thank all the people behind this. This is a change in the world, acts of kindness that go a long way in some people's lives. Thank you

[@candaceg.8081]

Great tutorial; perfect pace for a 73 year young aging former dancer - you are inspiring. Thank you for these!

[@clemmiemayhew1375]

[@Coco-ww2hw]

Hello, do i have to have ballet shoes for ballet? Im learning by myself

[@nadrei9975]

@@Coco-ww2hw no you don’t. If you want to do it as a hobby, ballet is mostly about movement and understanding of your body. The tights and leotard help to elongate the legs visually (that’s also why the shoes are mostly in ballet pink). The clothes are tight so that there isn’t much resistance. Just put on what ever you feel comfortable in (and are able to move), some socks (but make sure that your floor isn’t to slippery) and enjoy yourself ☺️ (Also one thing, please don’t force your turnout, turnout how ever wide feels natural. If it hurts, your knees aren’t over your toes when you plié or your weight isn’t spread equally on your foot when you stand flat it is to wide. Forcing your turnout only harms you)
