I’m the mom

[@CarissaCampbellDances]

agreed

[@amishcountryproducts]

I may not be a mom, but I am the mom. I have been since I started on the mini team haha. Half of the girls call me mom anyways and I always just act like one. So props to you fellow mom!

[@nice-ok7bb]

@@amishcountryproducts this isnt about you

[@nice-ok7bb]

@CrAzy StEfanie she commented something mostly unrelated about herself on another persons comment

[@amishcountryproducts]

@CrAzy StEfanie Thanks!

[@bridget5106]

you forgot the minis who wear either barely any clothes or the most extravagant costume they could find...

[@kenzisupremacy774]

YES THAT WAS ME WHEN I WAS SEVEN AND I WOULD GO TO CONVENTIONS AND LIKE DO MY SPIKE AND EVERYONE WOULD BE LIKE 😒

[@bridget5106]

@@kenzisupremacy774 HAHAHAHA

[@amishcountryproducts]

ikr? I saw one last month at a con. ngl, those kids have been dancing for 2 years, yet their better then I'll ever be. I literally have done dance for 8. Is it bad I'm so jealous of those kids?

[@hayleymarse2853]

@@amishcountryproducts same tho. Younger kids pick up things a lot quicker than older people just because of being more flexible and being sponges for information especially when they are training several hours everyday

[@marievorburger]

Ugh yes. all day long.

[@harpersrinivasan6577]

ok but like is no one gonna talk about how good she is at dancing like bruh

[@tiltsnturns2394]

She’s soooo talented!!

[@ajogoz]

Literally was just thinking that, my first time watching her vids and she’s amazing

[@dancelover-qz5bz]

100% true

[@claire9671]

“The girl you want to be” Carissa that’s literally you. You’re the girl I want to be. 💗

[@Ell_lovell]

[@lauras733]

Yes omg, she is incredible and deserves to be able to have way way more confidence and show off.

[@SYDNEY.F]

Yessssss! P.S. I’m your 600tj comment

[@carebear6921]

Same!

[@abbythings]

ive never even been to a convention only competitions, but the moms are literally everywhere at every competition oml

[@CharlieSaccodance]

Broadway dance center’s summer intensive two years ago was like that too

[@ColleenLuvsXmasTsCats]

star power vibes lol every time we have a comp our coaches make us get there before the doors even open lol!

[@kayseystasel3265]

I was at a convention and there was one girl that literally WORE A FULL FACE OF MAKEUP AND HER COSTUME LIKE A 300$ COSTUME IN FREACKING BALLET LIKE I COULF SCREAM LIKR WHYYYY

[@pkwallace1206]

Kayseri Stasel they might be wearing makeup for their dance if their dance is first they have not a lot of time but the costume is Like WHAT?

[@zoeaaaaaaaaa]

Me: Can't even do a tilt Her: thrusts her leg up without holding it (Also Carissa, you are literally the best dancer ever!)

[@CarissaCampbellDances]

stop you're too sweet

[@superbuz3219]

No u

[@theresegalenkatttant]

im totally the girl with full face of stage makeup and fancy clothes! 😂😂 i realised a few years ago that i dance better when i feel glamorous, and im an makeup instagrammer so i often wear wierd makeup anyway! Some days its glam and glitter and some days its blood and gore! It just makes me bring out different emotions in he dance

[@jademabini9438]

did anyone else have the really good kid that never got called out but should have? just me... okay

[@ameliatycer2333]

I've never been to a dance convention but as soon as you showed the mom outfit i knew *EXACTLY* the kind of person you were talking about 🤣 dance moms are a universal language

[@SYDNEY.F]

Yessssss! It’s always the scarfs😭🤚

[@summerfugate112]

remember the girls that stood in the back and were definitely seniors who were part of crew but they still took our classes and helped on stage

[@kylieghaosamwonyi2029]

Maybe just maybe if I start wearing black socks to convetions I can BECOME that GIRL😂

[@lilianacampana4097]

why are the outfits so accurate

[@saraandcarolvlogs520]

THE BLANKET SENT ME😂😂

[@kayseystasel3265]

#10 YES my teacher took class with us in the back and was THRIVING

[@alinagarcia6320]

haha mine too

[@anistynsmart3337]

the 3:41 "stretch🤬" is so accurate im dying

[@magnumu]

You forgot the one who is at the back of the class and can only think about their future career of selling fridges...

[@ur.left.buttcheek]

That was me haha, I was always the worst one and had no friends and it sucked. The worst part is I LOVED dancing but it just didn't pay off so I quit. I'm now playing volleyball and I always wonder what could have been if I didn't quit. Living my best life rn tho

[@countrycutiesaldc9499]

Lol that person seems lame- oh wait that’s me nevermind

[@SYDNEY.F]

@@ur.left.buttcheek why is this legit the exact same thing that happened to me…I also play volleyball!!! Exept I’m doing ballet classes now.

[@lexyl2495]

The Mom outfit is SO ACCURATE I CANT

[@xanity587]

I remember at my first convention I got a scholarship and lemme just tell you I was confused

[@pierogi_is_bae]

Hi army 💜

[@randomedits1923]

Same I got one for being the best in every class and I wasn’t even trying I was just like dang you teach fast trying. To comprehend all the cheorigorphy there teaching lol

[@skylerking1079]

[@sorelle5511]

number 14, those kids are EVERYWHERE at the conventions i go to ahahaha

[@linnjukri]

oml the accuracy down to the outfittt. I remember this one girl from last year exactly like that 2:02

[@alexabell5004]

My two grandmas are the mom. My first professional musical they showed up like 5 hours early together not even joking and they sat in the front seats they knew didn’t get bought and bought the freaking 100$ tickets, talked through the last run through, laughed really loud, called everyone and told them where they were, then they screamed really loudly when I came out.

[@addilynbraelynn1510]

1:35 ..imagine doing that in your room (without music playing or edit ) and someone walks in on u 😂

[@PiperG_Dancing]

#5 is SO me! Last year’s convention, i didn’t care what others thought of my contemporary improv, but I didn’t care. I loved to improv contemporary ❤❤❤

[@karmabl0ck]

Okay- I was starting to think I wouldn't relate to any of these, then you pulled out "Tap Queen" and I went " Das Me!!!!"

[@kaciepenick1270]

Same

[@omniummysterio]

oh my gosh, but why are these so accurate?? she plays them so perfectly.

[@heckdangit3761]

So I have no dance background, but I do work backstage/merch booth at a particular competition, and yeah this is pretty accurate

[@littletimmy2197]

2:20 ahh yes, the all of a sudden quick drop. such a classic.

[@camrynbridges11]

LMAO i’m so happy this was in my recommended

[@classicalcaroline9122]

The only convention type thing I've been to was the master class at YAGP but like all these are so true 😂

[@Raj.Sakaria]

You missed the ones who just go to meet friends and have fun. At least that was me.

[@josiet2273]

5:00 the outfit is TOO accurate

[@katnance6155]

Okay. So like this is the first video of yours I've seen. And here I am expecting this to be whole comedy, and then I suddenly I'm like.... Woahhhh okay, this girl can DANCE.

[@ellaroze8484]

Oh jeez the dance teacher in the back is literally my contemporary/ improv teacher during contemporary or improv lmaooo

[@brookem.8642]

The effects are EVERYTHING 😌🤚🏻✨

[@angieahite2597]

😂 I loved that. There was definitely some truth there. I also have the same Adrenaline shirt 😆

[@clarab.7680]

is anyone else intimidated but also in awe of how many awards she has in the background?

[@emmathompson4927]

i aspire to be 5 and 16 haha. i’m going to my first convention (radix) in april and i’m so excited!

[@luckystaraldc2217]

I went there

[@MsPebbles2010]

the last time I went to a convention I was LIVING for the contemporary. Mainly because I'm old and could not for the life of me keep up with the hiphop lol I literally tried a bit and then went and sat down like NAHH this ain't it.But I was also very much the teacher in the back oh god. Hahaha

[@laurenwasik2622]

okay but every single outfit was ON POINTTTT

[@elisabethbrooke7454]

I think you may be that last one and not realize it. You are a fabulous dancer with a great sense of humor!

[@kimprata660]

This is so true Edit: Wow 1 year later and this girl is still ❤ ing comments! Wow

[@avesbabes3155]

I love how her intro is just her name for like one second instead of most people who do it for sooo long, your are so funny and I love your vids keep being you girl

[@ilikechez5775]

#2 is my complete opposite lol, I come in massive t shirt sweatpants and sneakers blazing

[@qthedancer4711]

When I was young (long ago) I was a professional dancer. I have so much fun with your videos. You are smart, funny, and a really good dancer! I wish you all, and I mean ALL the best!

[@galaxykitten6849]

6:05 you forgot the BRIGHT FREAKIN RED LIPSTICK like seriously there isn’t one dance I’ve done without it 😂

[@mariekuelbs9347]

Lmao the closest thing I experienced to this are Irish dance competitions, and they aren’t too different, save for the type of dance

[@ayalaprete5272]

this is so true omg there’s always THAT girl everyone wants to be (usually wears black socks) ahahahha

[@kellydevine4198]

So good! Binge watching your channel:) subscribed ❤️

[@afloatingpineapple6170]

can’t relate. i have no talent. bye xxx

[@AmirReda-o6v]

OMG! This video is absolutely! I love it. I was definitely the dance Mom saving seats and taking pics. Now I have carried it over to being a Dance Grandma. Still saving seats and taking pics. My adult daughter is now the dance teacher living her best life in the back. I cried through most of this video because it's so funny. At the moment my 5 year old granddaughter is the full out girl with makeup and dance convention costume. Thank you so much for this video. Brought back many memories. Will have to share with my many old dance Moms!

[@rosijosisocool9121]

The ballet girl is literally me 😂

[@bellinzbellinz9680]

2:04 Me with lyrical. Idk why, something in me comes straight up alive when I do lyrical. It may be because of my awesome teacher and class but honestly I love lyrical

[@zelousfoxtrot3390]

Never went to a dance anything (ok, ballet show one night back in 1990's, boss couldn't use her tickets), but your ability to show different characters and act as well as dance- honestly, don't they use that in shows on Broadway and stuff? I saw Hamilton on Disney Plus. What I'm saying is even if you don't see yourself 'as that dancer you want to be', I think you bring a lot to your table, don't give up on the dream, there seems to be a whole genre of shows that combine acting and dance.

[@addisonshanahan8827]

omg and the people who think there TOO good to be there but really...there not😂

[@lylajones5520]

I absolutely love your videos, they are so funny. And a dancer like myself I have seen a lot of these people

[@julespoopoology]

I don’t do dance competitions, but half of these apply to all of the ballets I’ve performed

[@amishcountryproducts]

I was placed with the seniors this year for my con. (May I add, I accidently got signed up?). My teachers totally were the teachers, and I was so stressed the whole time because I'm an awkward, anxiety ridden person, I was separated from my friend/child, and I was never able to pick up the choreography. That, is why I don't like cons. (Even though I have only been to 2...)

[@strangergoat]

I don't know what a dance convention is, or why this was recommended to me, but I enjoyed it.

[@tiltsnturns2394]

This is hysterical!! Great video 💜

[@abbyrose2888]

everything in this is so spot on carissa😂

[@ZuLiza]

Me, is in her element but since has social anxiety and is self conscious doesn't put in a lot of effort. Me home alone, dances and sings like no one is watching. Lol

[@sophiafoisy470]

I love her classic mom outfit hahahahahha

[@unicornslime1151]

I go to dance league too! And Tap Queen, more like tap king. Mr. Mike

[@jjconnection8763]

THIS IS WAY TOO TRUE

[@gemmaryan5095]

The mom squat is too accurate

[@macy2200]

6:11 that outfit looks so good on you!!!

[@justafellowswiftie5088]

I don’t even like dance but I though this was funny 😂 See dancer slide on the ground to either look pretty or do do like a trick or something I play soccer and I slide on the ground to break somebody ankles😂

[@laurenjud]

you just made my day lol ilysm

[@kodathy9386]

I am horrible at dancing and haven't been to a dance class in a decade, but for some reason I am currently obsessed with ballet and am even thinking about going back to it, even tho I don't have the strength to do it it all

[@fracturedballerina5190]

You can build up the strength! I came back after breaking my back and having to learn how to walk on a walker. Comebacks are possible! Give it a shot!

[@selectedshipper8282]

“Okay I’ll be running to get your lunch” *walks slowly*

[@rachaeld956]

Y was I laughing so hard at 3:03

[@laurenlipman7739]

HAHA that was a really good video definitely could relate to the tap queen lol

[@CarissaCampbellDances]

we love a tap queen

[@ETUB_0406]

You are a beautiful dancer👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@astanford4272]

Me being sad because I am definitely not any of them including general girl because I don’t have friends to find, but then being happy when there’s tap queen because I love tap and I think I’m pretty good at it.

[@woofwoofhamdog573]

Me thinking of who i am in conventions Who i am: the one who loves to eat loves the combo is afraid to improv and halfway through my feet are killing me

[@fracturedballerina5190]

Hahahaha, awesome. Well observed on all! The Mom was absolutely spot-on. Also, The Scholarship Winner was hilarious.

[@addi_069]

Omg she looked just like a mom and she can make herself look a lot older lol

[@gingerstravasnik1140]

Stop the ballet part- me and my friends were wearing our ballet gear at it was so embarrassed

[@abfarrow3596]

I don't go to conventions, so I don't know if these are relatable, but I'd probably be the tap queen. I heckin love tap.

[@jocelyndobbs6152]

Why is this SO accurate??😂😂😂

[@Eliana-fw7ys]

Your technique is so good

[@sm0llqueen289]

Once all my hip-hop cloths were dirty so I had to where a leo Just a leo and tights😭

[@annesleygrace]

i think I’m number 12 idk though maybe not

[@kaeleighgilmore]

[@lily-gj8mx]

bruh the only class i get called out in is tap

[@hannahbennion]

I love that mom outfit lol

[@puppybunnysquid3358]

I would be number nine for sure!

[@Naeeo]

the tap queen

[@alohacallistaa]

I’m the one wearing all black in a giant group of other kids wearing black (because we were told to) and we’re most likely excelling in musical theatre

[@kir3565]

Gurl- you nailed it!!!

[@annarobinson3102]

[@jeneverdeen28]

You just got a new subscriber! This was hilarious!!!

I’m the girl in a ballet wear bc my studio forces me too... I’m not even aloud to wear sport brawl to dance my studio is very modest🙃

[@Msmichelle1410]

The girl that recently injured her self and is sitting with her coaches for “the learning experience” because she can’t move aka me

[@eternalcarnival]

1:30 me after school knowing I have like 5 pages of homework to do

[@bee123buzz]

THIS IS SO TRUE

[@itsjiminsnonexistentjams1221]

Or the dancers who like or either wearing a leotard or normal comfortable clothinh and have layers of blankets a pair of ballet booties, messy hair, not even into thr moment etc. To look professional lmao (aka me)

[@jillianedmonds4135]
