5 STEPS TO BECOMING A BETTER DANCER

[@carahamelie]

I think a big one that would have helped me when I was young was dancing with my head/neck. It wasn't something I was really taught... but it would have made a huge difference.... it almost makes the dancing look more confident.

[@eleasy1976]

To this day I think the thing that made me get NOTICEABLY better was watching SO many videos of professionals. Every time you are in the mirror dancing your brain will start to tell you how you need to tweak your body into something it has seen before. It’s kind of crazy how much it made, and continues to make me WAY better.

[@karadiberlino]

Agreed!! ❤

[@imzayaaaa]

I'm so happy that this video didn't have the same tips as every other dance advice video. These tips are unique and extremely helpful :)

[@karenemery9095]

I have seen so much more maturity and expression in your dancing the last 2 years. It has been lovely to watch.

[@kevinlove1664]

Mackenzie I love your videos. I didn't start ballet until age 47 and your videos have helped me both laugh and improve.

[@erniethemaidenhaver]

WOW 47? most proffesinals retire by then. Props to you that sound difficult.

[@kevinlove1664]

@@erniethemaidenhaver yep sweety, not exactly career track here. Only for the love of dance.

Thank you sm Mackenzie. I’m 12 and I have been doing ballet for almost 8 years now. I’m not a good ballet dancer tough. Like I just panic so much and screw up. We’re preparing to Alice in wonderland and I really want a solo role so this helped me a lot. Please do more tutorials on how to do specific ballet moves, and more tutorials like this! Again, this helped me a LOT! Keep up the great work ❤❤ Edit: While I was rewatching some ballet videos, I found my comment and I wanted to update how it’s going for me! I couldn’t get a solo yet, but Im dancing much better now and I feel like I’ve improved a lot. Im also dancing on pointe now so yeah! Im gonna enter a ballet exam next week and I have to do a solo dance, I’ll probably update this in a few years, I hope I get a solo next yearr❤❤ (Im 13 now:))

[@mzwandileloyiti7986]

Watching professionals really helps you adopt their artistry and mannerisms and that translates to your stage presence and expression and really helps with your overall performance quality outside of technique

You are such an inspiration Mackenzie! I love watching your videos and can’t wait to see what new leos you make. You always amaze me with your creativity and how you keep going. As a dancer I know it can be very difficult at times and I just wanted to thank you.

You should be a teacher when you're older! You are really good at explaining things and I would love to take a class from you.

[@sid2082]

Im 14 and I used to do dance when I was younger. I sadly quit because I unfortunately got bullied by the kids and even the teachers. For a couple of years now I’ve been wanting to get back into it again, but I’ve been afraid. I decided to start dancing at home to get more comfortable and confident, so when I watched this video I found this super helpful! Thank you so much ❤

[@soph5273]

My arms always look really weak while I dance so I love the way you describe holding your arms from your back 💕

[@ilovemydog-daisy]

You are n Amazing Dancer Mackenzie!! I love to watch your videos and really look up to you. You work super hard in dance and i've seen it first-hand when I see you at GRB! This video helped to to improve my dancing so much. Thank you for being here for all of us!!

[@drunkmotivee]

thank you so much makenzie!! your such an inspiration

[@Whitecraine]

These are great tips! I can relate to the one about listening to the teachers!

[@Life_with_london24]

This has helped me so much I watched this video a year ago and my life has changed with so many opportunities to dance for different people thank you so much! Love❤

[@adoredbymarie]

I've been doing ballet for 12 years and had 4 auditions now, I'd have had more but since 2019 we couldnt because of covid obviously but anyway, the 4th one was actually yesterday and i realised how much i love dancing on a stage and only that inspired me to get way better now😭

[@artsyshadow]

Thank you! this really helped me! I just came back from a year break of dance because of some leg pain ever since last november. I wanted to get back into dance and when i got back i improved by doing some of the stuff you said in your video, it turns out that i was better at dance now than before my leg pain started. I was able to balance longer and my pirouettes were a lot better to the point that i could actually do two turns. This journey has been very difficult but with video it made a whole lot easier, keep in mind i’m 12 now.

[@nadiabarmasse5294]

This video was really helpful , you're so inspiring 💙 One of my other inspiration in ballet is Maria Khoreva 💙

[@FunnyVideoEdits1]

This is amazing!! I'm going to start watching professionals and take notes! And for sure going to be more passionate in class! And just be happy to dance. :D

[@audracezus3502]

I love your videos you are super talented and amazing I have been doing ballet since I was 2 years old so I have been doing it for 9 years! You are such an inspiration and I am always looking forward to one of your new videos!🥰

If you’re watching this wondering “should I start dance I think it’s too late what if I’m with pros or even 5 year olds!” DONT WORRY the place I go there’s just a huge mixture of people BUT others may be just your age group.If the students there are toxic inform your teachers if Teachers are toxic STUDIO HOP
