Honestly this is so accurate. I dance and I can't throw or catch a ball but I get asked to do the splits or if I do anything that is mildly fexible people are astounded. I really related to this. Thankyou for the video! XX

[@clarewalker2507]

I’m the exact same, its like they have never seen anyone do it before

[@Faithy454]

Very true i agree

[@swaggywillow1123]

Omg yes

[@The_Great_War13]

Same

[@DeluluSwiftie13]

Yes

[@rishiii8t814]

It’s always amusing to me how impressed non-dancers are when they see a dancer do the splits, because it’s basically a required skill in dance and you forget not everyone can do them 😂

[@Kiwiberryyy_VR]

literally lol! like i can't even remember what it's like to not be able to do basic stretches like touching your toes and doing the splits. it's so easy for us lmao 😭

[@MapleSyrupLover.]

This used to happen to me alot aswell, I think people just find it incredible to see somebody more flexible than them do something they can't do. Any sport that requires flexibility goes with the people who ask to show them the splits

[@thepreppys6371]

i go to gymnastics and i can relate

[@0-0hello20]

I can’t relate I am the impressed one jajaj

[@fireball689]

Yes, I am a gymnast and I often forget non-dancers/gymnasts can’t actually do flexibility

[@balletobsessed1074]

Something that always happens is that all of my teachers did ballet- EVEY SINGLE ONE OF THEM! One day I was doing releves in the hallway and my teacher came out and she asked me if I was en pointe yet and we had a whole conversation about dance which was pretty cool!

[@livyzwurld1587]

Y tho

[@smismi5022]

that is so cool I wish I had teachers who dance

[@jackson5802]

Really? This is the first year I've had teachers that used to dance and they both prefer hip hop

[@Ihateschool164]

My teacher from last year used to dance with my dance teacher and that was pretty cool

[@daisy4life238]

[@peachiethecat]

The good old sit n reach flexibility box test where it wasn't long enough! Hahaha. I'm an exercise science major in college and when we were learning how to administer flexibility tests last year, we had to practice on each other. I definitely related to this.

[@ireallyreallyhategoogle]

Gym teacher: Okay, stand on the bench and reach as far past your toes as you can without bending your knees. Me: Standing on the bench, unable to even reach my toes without bending my knees. What is flexibility? Where can i buy some? For most stretches, i couldn't even get into the starting position because i was already stretching.

[@Caroline-jt6ez]

I did ballet in elementary school, this video brings back so many memories! I hated running/walking laps every Wednesday (I remember spinning around and trying to do jetes to make it more fun) and doing basketball or tag. I did some sort of test where you had to do as many sit-ups as you can and I think I got to 50 ish because we did them in ballet! There was some sort of exercise that our PE teacher would make us do where you had to jump with you legs apart and then jump with the legs together and I would always do echappes for that lol

[@jackson5802]

Dancers always win in how many crunches we can do, I think. We had to do around 100 at the start of partnering classes and I made it a daily exercise

[@nysachaturvedi]

I am not a dancer, but a contortionist. So the stretches are soooooooo easy for me plus my gym teacher loves me cause I have opted swimming and yoga. I legit pass my fitness tests with flying colours. This is so relatable😂✨

[@nevaehfr]

Woahh a contortionist?? So cool!

[@nysachaturvedi]

[@strxwberria928]

Recently, my teacher at school told us to dance something similar to Kpop dance and it is very awkward and hard for me as a ballet dancer. Whenever I do those dance steps, I dance like a robot which is terrible. Really love this video!💕💕

[@petraborza9388]

I do both 💀

[@phadenswandemil4345]

I had a friend who only danced ballet all her life, wasn't trained in other styles. When she danced hip hop, she looked kinda floppy.

[@Kiwiberryyy_VR]

ballet has always felt so awkward for me ugh but i'm en pointe now so i just have to suck it up lol

[@valtoton2982]

Omg....the stretching and the splits!!! I remember those gym class days... Ugh! The running 😩 I didn't mind volleyball though. Of course I was always the most flexible! (Cue the pointing and stares) This literally still happens to me.....I turned 50 this year! My niece's friends are always asking me to drop into a split for them or "Aunt Val, put your foot behind your head!" 🙄 Again... Someone will walk into the room on Christmas and my 13 year old son and I are sitting there both with a foot behind our heads and a handful of teenagers (most of them top BMX athletes lol) are trying to touch their toes unsuccessfully. It's quite the site, especially when the old lady in the room hops up and puts her palms flat on the floor 😂!

[@roku5071]

I did that to my middle son's wrestling teammates at one meet. They had a break and a bunch were on a corner of a mat stretching and stuff. Well the boys bend over to touch their toes and bent their knees, my kid included, so I went on the mat and asked them what they were doing. They replied that they were stretching. I did razz them a bit about bending their knees and how they weren't going to get much of a stretch that way. Then I said something along the lines about a good stretch is like this...and bent over, knees straight, and touched not quite my palms, but the backs of my fingers and a little bit past the base knuckles of my hands. No previous stretch, I came straight from the bleachers to the mat The looks on those high school boys faces was priceless and the looks from some of the parents was like, " You show them how it's done, girl!". 😆

[@urfavbrunette10254]

As a girl in middle school currently I can confirm this is me at school. It's so awkward because none of my school friends do dance so they can't relate to me. The most accurate one for me was always having the pointed toes, it's just instinct at this point.

[@carysbrewer5000]

When we play sports in gym everyone will yell at me because 1, I stink at EVERYTHING except dance and 2, because I don’t wanna try because of number 1 lol

[@rylee.12]

I’m not even a dancer (I’m a gymnast) but I can relate to pretty much all of these 😂 the flexibility, sucking at other sports, essays (about gymnastics), leaving school early for meets, etc. I’ve also had people tell me to “prove” that I can do a backflip lol I’ve even had people tell me to teach them how to do one

[@monapau2193]

My classmates knew I'm a dancer and they told our teacher about that, at the end of the school year, the teacher asked me to perform in front of the entire class and recorded it. I was wearing a uniform dress and dying inside. The most embarrassing moment in my life. I still cringe when I think about that.

[@lauramarianne1702]

I soooo hated gym class! It was the most stressful thing at school for me. I hated playing volleyball (which we did like 90% of the time) and other games, I hated everything apart from gymnastics. I had all Cs and two A+s for flexibility and cheer competitions 😅

[@SunnyDaysAG]

Omg “I don’t really, care. I don’t try to be good” that is soooo relatable for me even though I’ve been homeschooled my whole life

[@emilystewart4530]

In gym class part of our dynamic warmup is skipping. Because I’ve done skipping like how we do it in ballet all my life, I literally cannot skip like any other person. So I go across the gym with pointed toes and hands on my waist. 🤣

[@anniemoore35]

I do dance and theatre and I had a dress rehearsal for a play and I was a fairy. I had sparkles and makeup and rhinestones stuck to my face, and right after the dress rehearsal I had my first basketball practice and I literally showed up with a full face of makeup and glitter everywhere and I was like 9 😂 I was embarrassed but now it's just kinda funny

[@ainsley.cotton.05]

Do you still do basketball?

[@anniemoore35]

No, I stopped so I could do more dancing. I can still play it and I still enjoy it, but I am not on a team anymore.

[@ainsley.cotton.05]

@@anniemoore35 That’s fun!

[@folkmoreswiftie]

Hey Mackenzie!!! This is just soooo relatable! These have all happened to me, and also, while we had PE, our teacher made us do the pike stretch, I mean stand up and reach your toes, and all my classmates looked at me so amazed. They couldn't believe how further I would go😂😂

[@thebookwormmm]

Same girl same

[@aurellarasati_]

i feel u gurl lol

[@april.29]

I'm one of the most flexible dancers on my team and tbh whenever we are stretching I always don't go as far as I normally would because I hate when people stare and say things like "omg how do you do that?"

[@rhapsody206]

lol for real, the looks I get when my palms are on the floor 😭😭

[@thebookwormmm]

@@rhapsody206 yesss ik when they just look at you

[@lostie9866]

This reminds me of how glad I am that I was homeschooled. And also makes me think of the one time I went to church camp, was thrown into a game of softball (which I just had to google to make sure I was saying the right sport) and everyone was shocked I didn't know any of the rules or what the heck I was supposed to be doing. Nor did I really care.

[@rachelo8294]

Are you serious?

[@BESTOFBela]

SAME! I’m also homeschooled, and almost the exact same situation has happened to me. Except it was basketball.

[@april.29]

Yeah, I'm homeschooled, and when my dance friends talk about public school and stuff, I'm always just standing there clueless.

[@BESTOFBela]

@@april.29 yeah, when that happens I’m just standing there like 😑 and thinking ‘you know I don’t know what you’re talking about right?’

[@rhapsody206]

heyyy I’m homeschooled too haha

[@MadK07qppi]

As a gymnast, I also relate but my class is already so done with me bc i do shit like walkovers all the time.

[@maggieballet]

it was odd with my sister because she was the teachers pet with everything... especially in gym class. at the beginning of gym class she would randomly do pirouettes and the gym teacher would try and spin and end up on the floor lol! im a dancer and personally I do all of these things... 😂

[@MollyPaterson252]

Honestly this is soooo true I’m a dancer,singer and actress and when I need to leave early for rehearsal everyone is like “why do you need to leave for a stupid rehearsal can’t you miss it?!” Like nobody understands!

[@yunonnelemora9295]

Absolutely relatable!!! I remember pointing my feet and staying turned out for all gym jumps, hated ball related sports, only loving the gymnastics part, all that jazz! Although I do like running for some reason hmm

[@frieda3482]

I can't wait! These kinds of your videos are always so entertaining and fun! You're an incredible dancer too!

[@46204k-o-l]

[@ettajackson2483]

This is the most accurate thing I’ve seen on KZbin. Literally last week so many people asked why I had makeup on and my friend asked why we needed costumes..

[@meagantydings4415]

I’m a dancer too and when ever I’m at school I have all these bruises and everyone is like “do they hit you,” “are you ok.” And I’m like I’m fine i do dance.

[@mimipatel7588]

I died at “Have you ever heard of stage lights”

[@lonzseg25]

Omg this is so relatable! People are always asking to do splits, cartwheels,handstands etc etc.

[@violet79284]

This is one of the most relatable videos! I hate when people ask if it is a sport. You should do a part 2

[@stephaniepanis8669]

Wait till they ask you if you have to exercise to stay in shape - after enough of those questions l said "no, just good genes" .

[@jackson5802]

The essay one is so accurate. I did my English lit review on pointe shoes and my history project on Balanchine.

[@hwlindquist]

😂 this is so accurate! When they say stretch however you want and you start with straddle… 😐

[@user-xd7hl7eh8i]

The “just skip it” and the “I used to do ballet when I was little” parts are so relatable 😂

[@856shanna]

So accurate because I literally cannot go one day without someone in school asking me to show them how to do a split and when i stretch in gym i always throw in my own stretches cuz the stretches they give us don’t warm u up

[@bridget1811]

Last week I got to leave school early and I literally said the exact same thing to my friends and I told my fav teacher and was literally so excited 😆

[@roku5071]

Way, way back when I was a freshman in high school we did a section where the girls and guys were mixed and did two classes with the two P.E. teachers, a woman and a man. The woman P.E. coach taught the section on volleyball and the man P.E. teacher taught the section on gymnastics. Now by that time I had been doing ballet for 7 & 1/2 years and gymnastics for 6 & 1/2 years. The group I was in did volleyball first. I can play it but it isn't a favorite. One classmate would rag on me and say things like how I wasn't a great player and that I just didn't know anything. Then they said, "Just wait til we get to gymnastics, I'll show you how it's done." to which I was basically like, "Ok, whatever." The first day of the gymnastics the coach was showing how to do a basic somersault. I thought it was pretty entertaining 🙂. The classmate that picked on me was surprised when I did a better somersault than they did. I then heard a friend, and fellow classmate proceed to tell the other one, with a bit of exaggeration, how I had better know how to do a somersault since I had been doing gymnastics for 10 years (my friend later told me about their conversation and that they just had to do that little dig). That was a Friday class, by the following Monday, the first classmate came to class with a doctor's note excusing them from the gymnastics class. Meanwhile two other classmates and myself had a grand time since we 3 had taken gymnastics classes and did all 3 weeks worth of routines in 3 days plus 2 extra routines that the coach had to come up with until he finally told us 3 that we could do whatever we wanted as long as it was gymnastics related. That was my most favorite 3 weeks class and it passed away too fast 😎

[@tocagirl1311]

So relatable. like when people ask if I can hang-out and then I just can skip dance.

[@suziqginger]

It was ALWAYS people asking me to do the splits! So annoying lol! Such a cute and fun skit! I would love another night or morning routine. 💕

[@filmedbycarolineofficial]

One time my brother was at his baseball practice and I was doing stretches with them and I was astounded that the stretches they were doing we’re so simple I was like we’re not even going to stretch our splits?

[@isabellefysh6585]

I could literally watch you all day long. I find like everything is just so accurate all of the time

[@amybelet4811]

Literally exactly how I feel every day at school ngl.

[@itsgonnabeMEH]

It’s accurate. Another thing is that all the boys will say “Oh, you do dance. You know that’s not a sport?”And you just have to ignore it cause you’re in the middle of class.

[@theodoramanea3079]

[@kaelynPitts-rb9fm]

I’m a competitive dancer and I can say these are all facts. Every second I get asked to show someone a spilt, pirouette, etc.

So relateable! Everyone at school thinks ballet is like 6:26 and I find it so funny!

[@mysteriousdancer7137]

People always think that I’m trying to show off all the time! 😆

[@CoraLizzy13]

I totally understand this! Everything was true for me other than the 2nd one and the last one. Only because my school doesn't have flexiblity tests and I don't do competion dance

[@mildredjohnson8596]

The running one omg!!! My dance teacher when I was in 7th grade was so against running she wrote us all notes saying we couldn't participate 😂 I was so grateful Also for a competition one time (5th grade I think) we had to slick our hair back with a specific kind of gel and I was so tired I forgot to take a shower so the next day I went to school and the gel was kinda flakey And this girl whispers to me "don't worry, I have dandruff too! But it's embarrassing so don't tell the boys."

[@candylin7964]

Can I ask why your teacher was against running? That's kind of cool, cause I dislike running

[@mildredjohnson8596]

[@maggot3647]

Honestly everything is so accurate BUT one thing that’s prob just specifically me is getting annoyed when people come up to me and are like “TEAHC ME A PIROUETTE” and then they proceed to not follow what I’m saying and just run in a circle or when my friends get mad at me for correcting them when they asked to learn- one time this girl in my class came up to me and said “hOw aRE mY tUrNS” and she proceeded to do fouettés without any turnout or spotting and I DIED

[@sarahjohnson6407]

Work on flexibility and conditioning at home it will make all the difference! Try to stretch at least 10 minutes every day. Always mark the combos as the teacher gives them to you it helps with memory. Also try not to be too hard on yourself everyone there is more concerned with their own dancing. Nerves are normal but just think of how close you are to starting your dance journey! Don’t forget to breath while you dance. I hope you enjoy your classes!
