Never been this early before but I just want to say, as a younger ballerina you are doing amazing. Pointe is hard, I’ve been doing it for 3 years now and I promise it feels more normal the more you progress! the progress you have already made is amazing!! So proud ❤❤❤of you

I loved the video! From a ballet technique point of view, there is one thing I wanted to point out - I noticed you are trying to turn your feet out to 180 degrees but when you plie your knees are not tracking over your feet. If you cannot turn your legs out to match the turn out of your feet please don’t turn out your feet so much, you are going to end up with knee injuries and posture issues! Knees should always track over the feet. As for what you mentioned about the tip from your teacher about not pointing your foot too much - yes, the aim should be to be completely flat over your platform and not go past the platform. Think of it more as an extension of a straight leg and ankle rather than thinking of over extending your pointed foot . Keep it up, you are improving!
@VeronicaViccora7 ай бұрын
This is really helpful, and you’re absolutely right about the turn out! I definitely want to avoid knee injuries so I’ll be more mindful of this. Thank you for sharing this tip with so much care! 🥰

I usually don't leave comments under a video but I relly love your content and message so I decided to do so. You videos are so inspiring for adult dancers. They motivate adult dancers too keep going and not give up on their dreams. I started my dance journey when I was 24. I started taking salsa classes, one of the latin american dances, because I just love those types of dances and I love the music. I attended dance sessions in a school that takes dance very seriously. They do all kinds of compatitions, they have won many trophies and medals. They take adult dance lessons very seriously too. Most latin dance schools just work with kids or teenagers. One guy in our school never dancer in his and started when he was 60. He had so many struggles in the beginning even afterwards, but he just kept going and now he is a high level advanced dancer in both tango and salsa. Another guy is an IT guy who spends most of him time sitting next to his computer that's why doing dance was a struggle for months. He was so persistent he would do two sessions in a row he just kept going and going and he overcame all of the struggles and eventually he became a really good dancer. This school does this to people. They don't care about your age, they don't even ask you about it. The don't pay attention to that, everyone gets equal treatment. I attended dance sessions in that school for two years. Later the pandemic happened and I had to quit. After the pandemic in 2022 I got a new job and becase of it was hard for to make time for dance sessions (that year I had to do a lot of tranings and preperations for the new job). So for two whole years I stopped take dance classes. In the beginning 2023 I started taking Salsa classes again at the same place and I did them most of the year. But this time it was with an instructor who was mean, rude, he criticizes everyone for no reason, he even swears sometime. In the end I quitted those sessions and I had to stop dancing but I did attend the for a few months in 2023 It was sad because I love dance and I love taking dance classes in that school. That mean instructor was the only one who did intermediate level classes in the school and others shcool in my city mostly do latin dance classes for kids and teenagers. Not so long after that the same school did free tango workshops which lasted around 3 months (October, November, December) so that people would feel encoureged to try something new. The instructor was somebody completely different. A man who has been dancing for most of his life. He is truly professional and is very passionate abot dance. He feela and lives dance. He is the one who mostly woked with the sixty year-old guy and the IT guy. I enjoyed taking tango classes with him. I improved so much in a short period of time. This year I had to stop taking tango for the first two months because I got a new job so once again had to do a lot of tranings and preperations for the new job too. Now in March I am taking the tango lessons again, I just want to keep the dance flow going. Adult dancers face so many struggles, it is so hard to balance something that is your passion like dance and work life. I have been dancing for three years now but not in continuty. I mostly took salsa clases. I've only done tango for four months. If had taken dance classes with out eve stopping I would have become a high level dancer by now but I always stay in the intermediate group because due to some circumstances I ofen have to stop and then Ihave to retake the lower lever classes. With time I am improving I am so so close to became a high level dancer in salsa. Tango is beautiful too I like it a lot but I am just a beginner in tango. I will never give up on this, I feel like I did this for years I stuck to for such a long time. Usually I try some hobbies for a few and then I just stop. There is a reason why keep going back to dance again and again and will just keep going. One day I will get there where I want to be. It's not easy the school is far from where I live on the other side of the city. If the school was somewhere nearer to where I live then would take both salsa and tango lessons four times a week, and this way I can barely make it to two classes of tango a week. Yes it get tough for adults it is hard to balance work life additional activities, but I just want to keep going even if I make it only once a week I want to keep it going. You videos inspire me soooo much and they motivate me to keep going!!

New dance update: The dance studio has moved to a location that is only 10 minutes away from my place, and I work online so straight after work I can go to dance, I have more time to dedicate to dance. Also the mean instructor is gone (I guess he was mean to a lot of people) and the passionate instructor who has been doing dance his whole life. He took over all of the salsa groups as well so I re-joined a salsa group. Tango is beautiful but Salsa is my passion!! My Salsa moves have improved so much ever since I re-joined the Salsa group in my school. I don't know about other dances but the two things that helped me improve my Salsa moves was to always keep my head up and gaze in front of me and even slightly lift the chin up. Also learning how to properly balance od one leg has helped a lot!! We as adults always face many struggles when starting dance (work- life balance, time management) but it's important to always dedicate some time in the week for something that we are passionate about. That's what makes life beautiful. Now I feel encouraged to start ballet for adults. There is this school that does classical and contemporary ballet for adults mixed together. They are amazing and they do awsome stuff. I don't know if I should do it, but it definitely seems interesting. Veronica's videos and her journey are definitely inspiring. I love watching her videos and witnessing her journey!!

Capricorn’s love a mountain to climb (it’s your goat nature.) and when I say mountain, I’m talking about something insurmountable, unimaginable, something so challenging, why would anyone do that? so starting ballet as an adult is extreme Capricorn core. And by doing the impossible you show others there is a path and it actually wasn’t impossible. you definitely inspired me to start ballet as an adult.
@christievozniak97177 ай бұрын
What a great observation and insight! And great instincts to trust how your body feels and ask questions! I don’t know if this may help you, but I tell my pointe students that your entire core working to lift you up and support your ankles and feet in your pointe work. You may hear a lot of teachers give the cue “long toes” in releves and I like to use the imagery with my young students that your feet should feel like your hands slipping inside of a long pair of satin gloves. Your toes and fingertips are long and elegant and your strong core helps support that elegance by lifting your body up. However, I have also been in some classes where the ballet master wants full foot engagement through the metatarsals and there is some debate whether the cue “long toes” is an appropriate cue for teachers to use… this is mostly for movements en l’air- for example the extended leg in a developpe (your favorite!)- with the leg as turned out and foot as shaped as possible through the ankle and metatarsals. However, even in this instance the dancer should never feel like they curling or crunching in their shoe. Thanks for sharing your journey with us! I learn a lot from watching on ways I can be a better communicator for my young students and work on my teaching practice Keep it up!

I've been following your journey for some time, and I'm very impressed with a number of things, including your decision to plunge in to the ballet world at the [supposedly] ancient age of 20-whatever, and also how much you've progressed. Good job! I always wish you'd hurry up and post your next video, and that they were more often. I appreciate how you've allowed yourself to be vulnerable, expressing your doubts as they've come up, and still plugging away at your dream. I do have one gripe, though: your use of the word "ballerina." Ballerina is a title achieved by a professional [female] ballet dancer after she's moved up through the ranks. NO ONE else has the right to call themselves a ballerina. By the same token, it drives me nuts when I see 3-year-old kids referred to as ballerinas!! It's like calling someone a doctor who didn't put in the blood, sweat and tears of a medical education. Anyway, hope you're going to continue letting us in on your ballet journey. I, for one, appreciate it.

Julie goes in depth into details about the feet, ankles, hip placement that aren’t always explicitly talked about in class until, like you’re saying here, you know enough to ask questions, and even then teachers don’t always have enough time to give a full explanation to us beginners. I’m signed up just for her on demand library of classes not the live ones because it’s too expensive. I feel like for $15 a month the library of classes has been invaluable for me.

Hi! As an adult to an adult (sorry but you are not a ballerina, you just learn ballet...), I have some positive and negative reflections on what you do. Being passionate about ballet and asthaethics is 100%, and keep doing that! Flexibility wise - I Don't know how much you stretch per day and what you've done before, but pretty amazing u have your english split - that's something! Still I see that your turnout muscles are weak and therefore your placement is sluggish, knees are always dropping down when you raise your leg more than 45 degrees. Feet position/angle is also problematic, don't you watch back your vids? Sorry but if u do so, don't you see that your feet are horribly sickled in many positions? That's a basic error, so as knees dropping... I wouldn't put on Pointe shoes until my feet are sickled. Sorry but it clearly shoes you are nowhere near to the level where positioning of joints (ankle-knee-hip) coming naturally to the right places, in strength and balance your also nowhere near - first u need to build up to that level!!! It's like working on a house's 3. store whilst basement is collapsing... Your also much more prone to injury while you haven't got appropriate strength. It is not by chance that all big ballet schools making the students do tests which they need to pass BEFORE they let them an pointe!!! This also includes tricky things, that u has to be able to balance with EYES CLOSED - that's the coordination test fxpl in Royal ballet school I know that, but watch some vaganova school exams or classes or ABS tests, etc to learn some humbleness and to develop better without being harmful to your own self... Those are just advices. U can freely ignore them. I only suggest this, cause I started to learn ballet when I was 30, was my childhood dream to do so, and it is pretty hard to do it, whilst the requerements from an adult in life are pretty different than from a 5 - year old, so freaking hard to have min amount of required time, and it is almost impossible to go with an acceptable speed when you see how much other duties u have... I Don't wanna discourage you, but for me, it is too much from the black swan vibe in your vids, whilst basic pro foundational points are conviniently overlooked (feet sickling, overall muscle strength, hip-knee-ankle alignment,developing turnout gradually so as technique which builds upon it, etc) , and vids filled up with additional emotional ventillation, which, I don't think the public needs... If u would be a prima ballerina of NYCB maybe it would be interesting, but you're not... So pls cut the crap and focus on what you're doing... That' s it.

Firstly, ballerina just means female ballet dancer, doesn’t have to mean you are professional or not. As for your critique on her technique, she’s still new to ballet and like all us adult dancers, still learning, so please don’t be too hard on her. I don’t think she’s sickling her feet that much - it’s more her foot placement in retire and the fact that her feet are over arched from having flexible ankles, but that’s not dangerous or wrong in any way. The only thing I’m really seeing is her knee tends to come forward when coming out of her side develope back to retire which makes the foot appear sickled but is actually just a turn out issue. As for how she presents her video, this is her vlog, she’s allowed to put whatever parts of her day she wants. I like it when creators put a little bit of their lives in their blog, you can really get to know them better. As for being ready for pointe or not, I think she’s fine to be doing barre work en pointe which is exactly what she’s doing. Doing pointe will help her with alignment as well as strength so I think it’s a great thing to be doing.
