I love when she says "GOOD" lol her voice changes so much and it's kind of really rewarding to hear ¿

[@marilyndevonish]

Fantastic video, thank you. I took up ballet for the first time ever at age 47 so I've got no "4 to 7 year old knowledge" to fall back on. 😊. I shall get practicing because my arms often do their own thing once I start to focus on the choreography.

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

Just keep practicing Marilyn, I'm sure you'll get it in no time xo

[@angel1xoxo]

this is inspiration to read. I'm starting at 23, and it makes me hopeful to see people who aren't kids beginning and showing it's possible. How has your practice been?? it's been a year, got an update ? 😇

[@swinxfee]

Marilyn Devonish it's been two years now. How has it been going?

[@staceylynnash]

I’m 47 and just started as well,

[@connor9626]

i’m 14 and started at 13! late starters are the most dedicated and though there’s a 30 year age gap between us i’m sure your as devoted and that your a great dancer! it’s been a while! how’s it going?

[@sanse719]

OH MY GOSH..... JUST NOTICED HANNAH I WENT TO QUEENSLAND BALLET WITH HER SHES SO NICE

[@Sabityp]

My two girls enjoy watching you. My little one said " wish I can dance with her" she won her duet 1st place. She is thrilled.

[@rosehutchins2338]

I love that finger articulation exercise for teaching young children! Do you have any suggestions for strengthening the back to hold the scapula in the correct position?

[@egm2403]

I would love to see a video about how to stay stable and without stumbling in adagio!! I love your videos, keep it up!!💕💕💕

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

Stay tuned for future videos xxx

[@woobeanjeon8515]

Perfect! Smartest teacher ive ever seen. It helps me a lot. Thank you, Claudia! Looking forward to watching the next one

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

Thank you so much, I'm happy to help anytime! I agree, I'll definitely add that to the list of ideas for vids x

[@Lily-zd6dx]

I have danced ballet for 15 years (not at a school, so im in no way a professional we usually do once or twice a week and sometimes prepare for shows) and now that we are really upping it up a notch i feel lacking in certain (some basic) things and your videos are amazing. Now i know the exact posture, how to breath, etc, for maximum effect ! Thanks !

[@hyphung-balancemovement6184]

I've watched so many videos about Port de bras but Claudia's teaching is the best! Very closed to Ballet Dictionary I read and a lot more to learn from. So thank you so much and I'm very appriciated!

[@sophita_]

Your arm position tips are really good. You said the same things I learned in class. This is the best video I've found on arms :)

[@ClubDeNovias1]

You are amazing. I hope to see the 2nd part to port de bras soon :) thank you!

[@SmittenKitten.]

Just found your videos, and your eye for detail is unmatched. You are really an artist in the truest sense of the word!! Btw, I've contributed subtitles to one of your videos, and if you allow it, I'd love to contribute more! Loving your videos!

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

SmittenKitten You're amazing ! Thankyou so very much for contributing to the subtitles!! I will absolutely allow it and will get my assistant to check our settings to turn on the subtitles! Keep up the awesome work! Love your support ❤️😍

[@SmittenKitten.]

Aww, thanks SO MUCH!! It's such a small thing, but giving back to such an incredible channel is a win-win for me! I'm super thrilled to help in any way, so thank you for allowing it!

[@malialaguisa4797]

This young girl has gorgeous arm movements. So very graceful and natural

[@laurenvanneck4179]

Love this video! Could you do a video about where to place your head while you're dancing please? Your videos have helped my dancing improve so much!

[@Jete59]

I love this!!! Can you give us some more tips on beautiful hands, please? So many young dancers hold tension in their hands.

[@tingtingx8]

This helped a lot! Especially the technique for the 4 to 7 years old. I am older than that by a few years, but I'm not that great in my arms. It helped a lot. I felt like my arms are getting the use of a ballerina! For me, the second position was really hard. I think that I now understand the concept! Thank you so much! I watch, like, all of your vids!

[@beckykrusi8801]

Loved loved loved this! You are so super helpful and inspiring! 😘

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

That is amazing to hear, thanks so much x

[@mistychau]

Amazing!!!!! Any tips on how to execute a developpe devant without over working the quad but rather the correct muscles?

[@AllieHutchins]

mistychau watch her extension videos!

[@mistychau]

Ooh thanks!!!

[@flowerfawn]

Could you elaborate on the difference between side and down for the "up, side, down" shoulder exercise? Because when I try to move side after having my shoulders up, I feel that I am just moving them down. Not sure if I'm doing that correctly. Lovely video as always!! Can't wait for part 2 💕

[@stavitzina707]

Hi i have watched every single one of your videos and I just want to say that you have helped me so so so so so much miss Claudia I really appreciate your videos great job Lots of love Stavi ❤ (i'm from Greece btw)

[@IdolEyes84]

Loving the last exercise. I'm an adult and just dancing for fun. I haven't had proper technique training before so this is really good. :)

[@danielparmar9733]

Hi guys, Thanks for your session, really enjoyed learning from you. The little details that make the difference. Going to continue watching your videos, and integrate into RAD 5. 2021 IS THE YEAR I'M GOING TO BE THE DIFFERENCE, that's my challenge.

[@autumnpendergast9151]

I love your move for broadening the scapula, but I was wondering if you could show us how to do it without a person helping. I am trying to do this at home by my self and in class, but not really sure if it is happening!

[@KoalAlice]

[@SagaBroback]

Maggie Ramich she Said some tips in a foot stretching video i think;)

[@SagaBroback]

Maggie Ramich she Said some tips in a foot stretching video i think;)

[@adelaidetisserand9559]

Maggie Ramich what do you mean? Do you mean that you have hyperextended knees and have problems controlling them or you have problems with not being able to hyperextend them?

[@FaceCait]

I know this video is old but is it a thing with dancers that they don’t straighten their right pinkies???. I haven’t been able put all my fingers up without actively thinking about straightening my pinky😂

[@emma.l]

Your videos are so helpful! I wish you were my ballet teacher :)

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

Oh Emma you're too kind xo :-)

[@wheniwatchtheworldburn3184]

My dance teacher when I was younger would say put your shoulders down all the time and I physically have up shoulders, like it's just how they're made, and so I would just put my arms down. Now I've started ballet again my arms are a mess because I always put them too low and now I'm trying to say to myself ARMS UP SHOULDERS DOWN!

[@elimelart]

really good. its true. we practised it in ballet school. correct. nice to remind it adter some brake thanks

[@stew1350]

Was there ever a part 2 for this? I can't find one.

[@DancewithmaryNYC]

This is such great coaching, thanks for the artistic insights.

[@jdutka13]

Hi! So along with Port De Bras comes Epaulement, and a lot of people (including me) struggle with stiffening their neck doing Épaulement, so can you do a video on that! I don't have time to ask my instructor during ballet class, since he's busy, but it would help so much for class (since im perfecting my technique for pointe) so please do a video on it, thanks!

[@jenniferdoll8677]

Wonderful instruction!! I will be taking this to my ballet class to teach. Thank you!!!

[@championakali2253]

My teacher is always complaining how me and some of my friends have a small bump in between the upper arm and the shoulder from tensing the arm too hard. How do I make the bump smaller? My teacher tells me to make my arms longer but it has this weird stretchy feel

[@bigballetlover]

Great teaching.
