One Ballet Student’s Sacrifice for Her Dreams | Strictly Ballet - Season 2, Episode 1

[@kristymarshall4894]

Everyone's saying "I'm wanting to start ballet but I think I'm too old." Age doesn't matter. Go for it. :) ballet is amazing

[@Alanahaggar]

True, my dad started when he was like 20 I think. But it helps a lot if you start young

[@mariameletrich1636]

[@laurenelizabeth289]

11 isn't too late! if you want to dance just work hard and you can do it!

[@hollyhaas8224]

I started dancing at 8 but then I had to move to a place with no dance studios at 13, but now I'm moving back and I can't wait to start dancing again!

[@typicallyusual6984]

I think everyone will be glad to know that Mayumi joined Miami Ballet as a member of the corps de ballet the same month this video was published! She is still dancing there as a corps de ballet member as of now.

I started getting a lot of ballet recommendations and I have no idea why. It’s kinda creepy, it’s like my phone heard me talking about it with my Physio a few weeks ago. (We’re modifying my exercises to be more like the ones I did back when I did ballet many years ago, which helps a lot with familiarity and motivation. I also then understand exactly which muscles it’s supposed to target, because they’re all exercises I’ve done before. Highly recommend asking your Physio if you can slightly adjust an exercise to be something that makes sense to you, you’ll get a lot more out of it).

[@jiamin6518]

@@katherinemorelle7115 thats really scary tho...

[@l.l.1883]

I’m 15 and am a “beginner” dancer in my school dance program. My instructor has been teaching for 11 years and in college had Jazz, Ballet, and modern dance lessons. She recommended for me to register into a ballet studio because she said I shouldn’t limit my potential. I became very passionate about dancing and now I feel like if I continue working hard and smart I’ll be a great dancer

[@BallerinaBadass]

Doga Celikay, can you watch KZbin videos and start learning on your own? If you have a chair with a solid back to use as a barre, you can start doing plies and tendus. I realize that this does not replace a good teacher, but there are also a lot of bad teachers out there. Find your favorite ballet dancer, ask them where they studied, then see if you can find info online!

I can't dance to save my life, but I've always loved ballet. The artistry and strength that it takes... just wow! I played ice hockey for 7 years and people always said, "oh, that must be so difficult!" But ballet seems even more so. I have major respect for ANYONE who does ballet and dedicates their lives to this beautiful art form

[@ChesireCat72]

What truly makes ballet so difficult is that you need to be strong like an athlete but delicate as a flower. You're not supposed to look as strong as you are. It's really an oxymoron.

This is amazing to see! I start ballet when I was 7 years old. Now I'm 12 years old. Sometimes I want to start earlyer with ballet but than I realise me that now it's the perfect moment for me! My little sister is almost 3years old and in a few weeks she is storting her first lessons! Now at home we dance together and I learn her Some combinations, tricks and that kind of stuff! My little Brother (10) is doing ballet too! And My other little sister is 3 months now and I think she should be doing ballet to! So we're a ballet-family at all! My mom and Dad aren't dancers or something ;-) It's amazing for me to she how the ballet-life is going! I Really really want to do auditions for a acadamy in Rotterdam, Holland (where I live) so it's wonderful to see this people who get the same dream as me! Okay, WoW a hole life-story about me here:)

[@prinssescool]

I think you started at a perfect time! And it's great that you can dance with all of your family! I think if you want to become a professional then you should start no later than you teens so you started great! Good luck with getting to auditions! :)

[@cbrownes]

Just out of curiosity - how would the ballet company feel about a ballerina with a pixie cut? These girls have stunning hair! But I was just wondering since they were all wearing a ponytail, which is probably part of the movement as well, how it would 'fit' in the idea. Are such things enclosed in a contract?

[@margaritacampuzano7526]

I'm a dancer and I don't think many would mind, I knew a dancer who had a pixie cut and she never said anything but probaly if you want a pro career then you might have to grow your hair😶 but tbh ballet is changing so you never know😀

[@mikath27]

Charlie Noah when i was still dancing we had this rule that we needed to have long hair so we can tie it in a bun plus no bangs allowed i guess pixie cut would be more suited if you do contemporary but as for classical you would need to be able to tie your hair

[@cbrownes]

Margarita Campuzano I find this really interesting ! I'm usually all about showcasing your individuality, but I can imagine uniformity is preferable for the presentation during a dance. Thanks for replying :)

[@cbrownes]

michelle katherine artuz Didn't even think about bangs. The focus and dedication of the ballerina's is of the chart! It really goes from head to toe ;) Thanks for the insight. Interesting!

[@Sandy33569]

Charlie Noah Honestly, not sure how it should matter? For the bun argument, you could always get a fake bun!

You probably need to be flexible to go anywhere far in ballet. Do you already take lessons?

[@fawnkongsiri1752]

If you stretch everyday I'm pretty sure you will be flexible very soon!

[@Sandy33569]

HarryStylesLover I've been dancing ballet since I was 8 and have never had my splits (although I have done it just one class a year as a hobby), and only once by fluke after doing a kick exercise did I actually go down into my right split because my legs gave up trying to resist keeping me from it. xD I'm also returning from a knee injury and after two years lost a lot of what flexibility I did have and am returning to ballet this fall 3 times a week. Just work on stretching and strengthening. That's what I'm focusing on this summer and have improved. It is not just about flexibility. I have, at one point, been able to hold my leg higher than another student who was more flexible, simply because I had more strength in my leg to hold it more steady. So, I suggest, focus on strengthening and flexibility. I love a program called Front Splits Fast. It is pricey, yes, but works. Stretching alone has never helped me by itself, but you can always try that first. Also ballet related exercises, things like Pilates, PiYo, barre exercises, or just working out at the gym (I do a mix). Even if you are a beginner, you can do it. There's two dancers with football history in an adult class I took to try out the studio and it was neat. :D

[@megantan8063]

I'm not really flexible either but I do take ballet. What you want to do is stretch everyday to be flexible... It's going to be really painful but if you really want to it's the only way.
