MY EXPERIENCE AT THE PRIX DE LAUSANNE!

[@cecimoffit2781]

Well in America many people, like you said are still currently doing YAGP and many scholarships on America are given out there. The Prix isn't as well advertised. Also, the Prix is older kids while YAGP holds many kids of all ages and the older kids can get contracts w companies in America​.

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

Oh that makes sense! xx

[@chrognos]

It costs a lot of money to go to Switzerland and YAGP is in the states.

[@EurasianMiHae]

It's cool to see all this footage from a coach's perspective of the entire prix. Thank you for vlogging this.

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

EurasianMiHae I agree! Thanks heaps 😍😍

[@estebannicolas78]

I know im randomly asking but does anybody know of a trick to log back into an instagram account? I somehow lost the password. I would appreciate any tricks you can give me.

[@jerrysam2001]

@Esteban Nicolas Instablaster =)

[@estebannicolas78]

@Jerry Sam Thanks for your reply. I got to the site on google and Im trying it out now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later with my results.

[@estebannicolas78]

@Jerry Sam it worked and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D Thanks so much, you saved my ass :D

[@starkin945]

Wooow congrats to Primrose!!!!!! You look stunning on stage, too bad you didn't pass but at least you got to participate on one of the most prestigious conditions in the world!!!!! You should be proud of yourself!!! This also goes to you Claudia, you also did a great job preparing her 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@austinacmes]

I saw Primrose's performance. It was absolutely stunning. She improved so much on artistry. Congrats on her wonderful show!

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

She is absolutely beautiful xx

[@kitsilanomusic7425]

This whole video is so joyful. I love the way Prim approaches everything and that's a testament to the coaching and upbringing. What a neat vlog!

[@JessieBanana]

This is just so far from anything I experienced at a child. I was lucky to even have a community outreach program that brought ballet to poor kids like me. I couldn't have imagined all the private lessons, costumes, flight costs, lodging, paying for a coach to come with me, just a whole other world. Still is.

[@dollmom3597]

This was such a special event in her life, and I am sure she will never forget it. What a wonderful teacher you are, and prim is an exceptional student.

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

Thank you so much, and I am so proud of her!! xx

[@kattymaldonado6532]

Her solo at 2:48 reminded me to Dance Academy!! (the australian show). Def took me back❤️

[@annak29]

Absolutely stunning, such diligence and passion, both Ms. Claudia and Primrose, and lovely other coach. Her artistry, expression, presentation of her costume, face, hair -- she looked like the Prima! Especially important was the whole experience! I love how Claudia asked Primrose what was the most important thing she learned! Yes, and also, "winning" the competition is just one of many roads to success/goal, and opportunity comes through multiple doors and avenues. Being your best in each moment, during private coaching, group work, pre and post -- your entire character is on view, and I guarantee the hiring decisions are based as much on character, work ethic, and potential as pure performance. Godspeed ❤️❤️❤️

[@clarathiele7460]

i’m going to the prix de lausanne this year and i’m so nervous but so excited.. and i’m also doing the cupid variation!! thanks for the tips and for sharing your experience!

[@crunchybubblewrap]

I know!!!! I saw you!

[@reederkids684]

I loveeeee Cupid! It’s by far my favorite

[@esval3054]

How did it go?

[@zhuoli629]

Yep, your Cupid was perfect, Clara. So much energy!

[@rachela5395]

I would love to buy a Sylvia Leo in pink! It’s stunning and I agree that the fabric is super soft yet strong. It makes me look skinny!

[@louisemaaree]

407... SO AMAZING! I was watching him throughout the whole comp. Primrose, stunning. Great job for representing us aussies x

[@miraclehearts2]

Isn't primrose such a Gorgeous dancer!?? She is beautiful & identical to Claudia

[@sophiealbin7160]

I couldn't wait for this video! It was so interesting to see the whole experience! Primrose danced so beautifully and looked stunning in her Collections by Claudia leotard! 😍💞

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

Aw thank you gorgeous

[@luciagomez3735]

I saw the competition and I was looking for Primrose, she did and amazing job at the prix😍 Greetings from El Salvador

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

She danced beautifully xxx

[@kylepoliah6272]

You're a wonderful dancer Primrose!!!! Keep shooting for the stars.

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

She will, she's a very hard worker!! xx

[@dreamwoodmusic]

Primrose can be so proud of her achievment there. She is now dancing at Ballet de l’Opéra de Paris and Boston Ballet! So amazing!! Dancer 112 was Hanna Park who was a prize winner in classical and contemporary in 2018.

[@mosellehaney4269]

There were quite a few Americans that applied for the Prix but just didn't get through. Also, there are a few different ballet competitions in the US (YAGP, Indianapolis IBC, ADC|IBC, World Ballet Competition, Young Arts, etc.) that don't require dancers to have to travel so far.

[@annamcbride9134]

4 British girls entered but unfortunately didn’t get through. Thank you for sharing sending lots of love xx

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

Thank you for your support xxx

[@alisonbramham7797]

I have been following the Prix and didn't realize Primrose was there. So exciting!! Well done both of you, student and teacher.

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

Thank you so much

[@kenmoreSF]

Love seeing Claudia all glammed up. Gorgeous.

[@pengiepicks1790]

Please do an advanced strengthening pointe bar❤️❤️

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

Pengie picks will do beautiful! 😘😘😘

[@Digeroo123]

Looks like Primrose is really doing well. Seems she is working at the Ballet de l'Opéra de Paris. Perhaps the coach from Lausanne remembered her.

[@ellihigman9068]

I’m from the UK and personally I’ve never heard of the prix before this vlog. Many people from my ballet school have competed in the YAGP and geneé competition

[@kim.young.]

hi! I really enjoy watching this kind of video! thank you so much for sharing your experiences in Prix de Lausanne! I hope you will do similar videos too in the future!

[@biancaheatwole9092]

I wish I could do Prix De Lausanne!!!! I’m from the U.S. and I would love to go to Lausanne!!

[@Lara-ni4vt]

oh i love lausanne, I‘m from switzerland and I think lausanne is one of the most beautiful towns here in switzerland😌

[@lozachops]

Primrose is such a joy, so positive.

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

She is amazing!! xx

[@harrietfulcher5724]

Did primrose end up getting any offers from schools? Xxx❤️❤️

[@dannytonnessen6896]

Soo you’re not going to tell us...?? That’s just mean! I hope she got lots of well earned, wonderful offers 🤗

[@breezaal6197]

Danny Tonnessen it’s not her place to tell of Primrose’s success?

[@pixielale-klasicki3679]

also if she gets offers then disclosing the school is a little too much info

[@estherchagnon1664]

I don't know if she had offers from schools, but by the look of her instagram she is now in the paris opera ballet school :)

[@duckies365]

That's do funny, since last night I first learned that you competed in this competition when you were younger! I must say that both performances that you had done were beautifully executed. Love your videos and thanks for all your hard work!

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

It is quite an experience!! and thank you so much

[@spottedbybarbie]

its 6am im thw morning and normally i stay away from my phone 1 hr after waking up to meditate but when i saw a notofocation from you I hurriedly open it. you are so pretty thank you for your tips. its helps me a lot as an adult ballet beginner:)

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

That is so so sweet - thank you so much xx

[@oliviaslatter4625]

[@dnwalkingoneggshells]

hi claudia! love your channel :) would you mind doing a quick explanation of what these types of events are at the beginning of your video. I love learning about the dance world and your a great teacher!

[@AriRHen]

I had a dream I went to Switzerland last night because of this vlog!

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

Haha maybe you will visit it one day xx

[@idasoranno7653]

Thank you for posting! I've been wanting to see something like this on KZbin!

[@hay_bail1]

Makani, from the US , who dances at my studio, competed at the Prix as a finalist.

[@fleurfynn7075]

This is AMAZINGGGG!!!! Thank you for sharing this with us Claudia!

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

Fi Fynn sooo happy you LOVED it!!

[@natashagoodman5640]

Great Video! Please can you do a video or give me tips of straightening my legs. In arabesque lines, my legs appear bent when I am stretching them as much as possible!

[@loydoyanddi2342]

Natasha Goodman Same here!!! I need this video!! 😂

[@behardani3721]

So happy for you and Primrose 😍💕💖

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

Aw thank you!! xx

[@friendusesthisaccountnocom9928]

I saw the video title, and went to myself ‘Oh. That’s with Primrose.’ YOU GUYS ARE SISTERS AND NO ONE CAN TELL ME OTHERWISE

[@504CreoleCrystal]

I came across a video of you in 09 at the Prix de Lausanne. I can’t help but notice Prim is wearing the same color as you did on day 3. Also, is that the same classical coach as well?? It’s like watching you all over again.

[@louisianalady7105]

Primrose looks just like you, Claudia! Beautiful dancer! 💕

[@EricPoor1]

I loved this video! I dream of making it to the Prix one day! Great job Primrose!!!

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

You will superstar!! xx

[@judithengle7875]

Please do future vlog commentaries on the Prix de Lausanne. Your perspective has a different spin than the official livestream.

[@djhyperfresh6391]

I love watching your videos!I’m just about to start pointe and all of your videos help me a ton!Thank you!😁😁

[@encoreballet2307]

Such a lovely video thank you for the behind the scenes and I wish Primrose all the very best for the future. Also have no idea why UK had no entries I don’t get it being from the UK myself I have to say I was surprised when you said there was no one from here. That’s pretty sad actually but I really have no idea why that’s happened. Anyhow love all you videos 😘😘😘

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

Thank you for letting me know - and thank you so much

[@beafitze5909]

You were right on my doorstep, what fun! :-)

[@amyschumacher8476]

Wow I love you with your hair down, you look so pretty😍 and I loved this vlog, I just watched the one of you when you were 16😊 😂

[@annamcbride9134]

No idea why no U.K dancers will do my research. Beautiful Primrose sending you all the best x

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

Anna McBride Thankyou so much 😍❤️

[@lauraalvarez5294]

I would love to go to the Prix de Laussane but is kinda impossible for me 😢

[@milliexox5977]

Amazing vlog! You and primrose look like sisters!!!! x

[@nancytomlinson3523]

Wouldn't it also be amazing if Claudia met the videographer whom she had 10 years ago? Wow, your mini-me, Primrose, so cute. How does your material of fabric hold up with the constant pinning. [ sometimes pins can cause a large Hole. ]

[@jamesgames3694]

The UK don't really enter many ballet competitions anymore, from what i can tell people place more emphasis on festival, All England, TDCI championships, Miss dance and DWC.

[@mairaangelicarodriguez166]

you should talk about dance academy ....i don't know if you watched the show but is amazing...i would like to see the reaction of a real ballerina with this show ....

[@charlottemiiller]

Wow what an amazing experience! 😇

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

It was extraordinary xx

[@ThePinkKiwi]

Coming from someone that lives in the US, Florida to be exact, money/traveling cost is a MAJOR factor in what competitions I chose to do in the past, if any!

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

Thank you for letting me know xx

[@hazzabean1612]

I’m from England was going to go but was ill 🤧

[@bookwormballerina9110]

You did a great job Primrose!

[@paulineryan8856]

Omg I love you so much and I am so so happy because tomorow my dad's dad is going to take me to ballet=) your videos helps me so much =):D♥♡♥♡♥♡

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

Aw thank you Sarah! xx

[@jemmaireland8435]

Love this 😍❤️

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

Jemma Ireland Thankyou so much! 😍😍😍

[@gabyberron1916]

I’d love to attend to the Prix but I live in Mexico and I believe Mexicans never attend the comp, for me it’s just too expensive... plus I’m not at that level and I’m 17... I’d love to go though...

[@felicitylittler]

Primrose is a shooting star.

[@mathildewesendonck7225]

I am very surprised that many Americans or Brits don’t even try to audition for the Prix. Just look at all the great dancers who have participated in the Prix de Lausanne: Carlos Acosta, Alessandra Ferri, Diana Vishneva, Gillian Murphy, Sergei Polunin, Alina Cojocaru, Vadim Muntagirov, etc. etc.... no offense, but YAGP is not the same. Most of the price winners didn‘t make it into the same league, many didn‘t even make it to a company or quit ballet. So I think if you are from America and you really want to become a famous dancer, it’s worth a try. Even if it’s far away and an expensive trip. Australia is much more far away, for them it’s right at the other end of the world!!

[@halatarek8674]

That is so good for her to be able to go to Prix de Lausanne I want to audition but my teacher says i should wait another year but i think i will still give it a try next year though any things i should take care of when auditioning? Also love your channel and you are so helpful -lots of love from Egypt❤️❤️

[@bellydancerjasmina5562]

Can anyone please explain to me why the stage is actually raked? Thanks in advance. 🙂

[@crunchybubblewrap]

omg, that is the cutest video i've ever seen from you! does any other of your students apply for the prix de lausanne???? anyway, this video is very cute! it was sad that primrose didn't get into the finals :(

[@abigalerichard3679]

I would like to be taught mini exercises by prim rose she's so lovely. Lovely heart in dance

[@azyazarvan4225]

she did an excellent job!!

[@spaghettimomota5395]

It's actually so sad for me that I live in Egypt and I don't have that much money to travel and I really want to go to preformances and learn ballet at London or at Russia, but Sadly I can't Sadly.. just watching, even though I know I can't travel and learn at London or Russia, just watching Claudia's video is making me confortable and giving me hope💗💓💟💕 Thank you for giving me hope Claudia

[@kierahohne6498]

Did Primrose get any offers from any schools?

[@abbiebaxter7142]

Where is Primrose now?

[@lillyjones5504]

im a twin and I love my twin but she is a lot to think about because me and my twim have asd so we don't get a lot of what people talk about but dancing help me with asd I love you vids and it help me with my hip hop class and all

[@ameliathompson6269]

In the UK a lot of auditions clash with the Prix x

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

Ohh right, thank you very much xx

[@Patsaquino]

Love you Claudia

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

Much love!! xx

[@joannaallardyce4550]

I so enjoyed this video! Well done to Primrose, and I’ve got to get me some collection by Claudia leotards! (If they’ll fit my more ‘robust’ frame) 😂

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

We know you will absolutely love the collection!!

[@annebush5731]

Hi Claudia. I just wanted to let you know that not all of your followers are dancers. I love watching any ballet. Since I saw Swan lake in Bristol England now I am 65 and still love it. I watch all of your videos and love them I now live in Canada.

[@mygirldarby]

Can there be any more perfect name for a ballet dancer than Primrose? I don't think so!

[@charlotteryan2599]

Does anyone know how to send a letter to Claudia dean from another country

[@cosmicnights]

Thanks for the video. I hope my daughter can do this one day. She’s 6. You’ll meet her this year if I can get her to a class with you.

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

Absolutely!! Email info@claudiadeancoaching when you get the chance to organise lessons x

[@shanacharlie9940]

Did she get any school offers?

[@gailjacobson9736]

How much does it cost to attend the Prix? Do they have scholarships for needy kids?

Why dose primrose have a loubatain 💼

[@Katy38316]

Are there any dancers from New Zealand who participate?

[@daniellaelm5106]

Flower Base my mum is from nz and her school friend actually won the prix de Lausanne when she was 16 (a long time ago). I don’t know about now though

[@tabithapearson4718]

Hey Claudia, I am having some trouble remembering how to hold my arms with the positions. Can you think of something that might help? Thanks! Tabitha.

[@dokophyllum]

You'll tell me this obvious but as you said you have to think to hold them all the time, there is no secret or thrick for this ;)

[@eduardasartorio1368]

You are so beautiful 😍❤️❤️

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

You are gorgeous!!!

[@harleyquinn9682]

Well as an American, I wouldn't really consider Prix an option since (I believe) you have to travel to another country? It's easier for me to consider YAGP because it's all in my home country. Idk, that's just me.

[@audioswapsuniverse]

Thats true, I also find that many of the americans that actually apply to prix are looking to join overseas companies instead of NYCB or ABT in the future

[@mathildewesendonck7225]

Audioswaps Universe but that’s actually silly, because there are soooo many more big companies in Europe, and not everyone can make it to ABT or NYCB. I also noticed that Prix de Lausanne winners often have more successful careers. Many famous dancers have been to Prix de Lausanne when they where young. Like Gillian Murphy, Alina Cojocaru, Vadim Muntagirov, Sergei Polunin, Alena Kovaleva (not even a finalist at the Prix- four years later First Soloist at the Bolshoi 😅), etc. etc.... Many YAGP price winners didn‘t make it very far

[@rinsato11]

I saw you there!!!!!!

[@rinsato11]

It was a nice time seeing you in person!!❤️

[@ClaudiaDeanWorld]

Awww you are too kind!!

[@user-qf8um7km8k]

i dont dance or am a fan of dancing i have no idea how i got here the only thing that in any little way conects to me from this video is that i'm swiss and i was in lausanne when the prix de lausanne was xD

[@emilystewart4530]

Is it just me or do Claudia’s earrings kind of look like the Prix de Lausanne logo?
