PERFORMANCE WEEK VLOG!

[@SmillyDonut]

Mackenzie. Don't stretch yourself so thin. If you need to close off Noelle orders until after Christmas then do so. People will understand. We want you to be healthy, okay. Take care of yourself, take a fruit with you so have something to eat for lunch, get enough sleep. You look super stressed and tired and I'm worried. I want you to be well, okay.

[@elizac876]

i agree but this is just a dancer's life unfortunately, but thats a sacrifice us dancers are willing to take, in order to do what we love, and be successful! 😊🌻🌻🌻

[@SmillyDonut]

@@elizac876 I was more referring to her running a shop all by herself and running a youtube channel on top of the extreme demands of dance, not the work she has to put into dance alone.

Yea, listen to Maria! You need to put yourself first sometimes

I love the lightness of Mechenzies dancing. Especially her leaps , her body seems to not ground when she lands. No stomping or clomping around here!

Definitely focus on your health and wellbeing first. You look super stressed and tired. Also, you should eat a big breakfast before dance, and take a fruit or protein bar to eat in between classes.

I miss dance so much- 🥺 My dance studio currently is open but they aren't suggesting actually taking classes right now because of the virus. I don't want to get myself or others sick either. So, I've been training at home. It's not the same without the girls! I loved seeing this though, it's nice to see someone still doing performances. ✨

[@Brooke.bokmuller]

When you recognize the contemporary song and it’s experience!!!

[@brennadowney927]

Loved this! Also the music to your contemporary solo is so beautiful; I love the song. And great job with Gamzatti!

In Greece theaters are closed and we are in quarantine. So no performances for us.

[@leeelahglitz47]

My studio did two live shows with audiences, and we had both shows professionally filmed so that people can buy DVD's or USB's. Also, Yess about the ballet tights thing!!! I own two pairs of ballet tights, and I've been wearing one pair all year, and only bought new ones for my end of year show at the start of this month lol. Also, I do like 1½ hours of ballet on a Thursday, so I wear my tights for like 2-3 weeks, then wash them, which probably seems gross to other people lol, but it's only around 4½ hours that I've worn them😂

[@daviddroxler8534]

Hi Kenzie, your videos are wonderful because you are authentic in what you present, everything is from your heart. Always best wishes to you. The dance school I volunteer with is all virtual until next year. Thanks again!

[@Urmom-gy7rh]

Yes I wear the same 2 pairs of tights every day lol

[@alesof315_9]

Actually,2nweeks ago I did a real performance with a audience! We had four shows in three days and it was exhausting,maybe it’s just me but it was rly hard. I’m a lot younger than Kenzie and I feel like we are all different levels and yet we still have such similarities,it’s great

[@annie.thomas15]

OMG! I wish I could perform with a live audience. I did a virtual Swan Lake. What dances did you do or what music did you perform to! 🙃

[@matilderodriguez4676]

I really hope you are better now, this year sucks for everyone and you're taking it sooo well so calm❤️we love and understand u It could be streassing and it's ok to be not ok, plus you have a brand, it's hard. This gonna pass so ✨keep calm✨ and try to be as good as possible (no,cry if u need to) Maybe is evreything go like shit but you keep trying just trust

[@rileynicole5660]

That contemporary song I had to use for a school project 😂

[@ec5513]

Video idea: you should do different types of dance as people's names for example Emily=contemporary holly=tap Charlotte=contemporary excetera excetera.

[@emilystewart4530]

I DO love contemporary!! And ballet too.

THESE VIDEOS MAKE ME MISS CITYDANCE SO MUCH!!!!!

[@caitlyn9609]

We just had our RAD ballet exams. We normally have them in August but covid ruined that. I have my point assessment today and it will take until next year to get the results because everything will be closing for the holidays. I'm going into inter foundation next year and if there are any tips for going on point I would like to hear them. I have watched your vids on it and they helped alot. Thank you ☺️

[@maddsdadancer8815]

right now our studio is doing only live stream shows but before we were filming the pieces and putting them on discs to watch at home

[@danirose9993]

at my studio instead of doing our normal christmas show we just did this little show that was just the parents of each child dancing and then we would switch parents as we switched dancers for a different dance so each of the dances were like their own show. i’m also watching this video instead of doing school👍

[@patzalusky1024]

I'm really sorry about your acne💛 it's because your so stressed out, once you have time for a break your skin will clear up

[@terrielle7516]

We had a live audience 😁

[@carabearaa4160]

So I have some serious PMS stuff. Especially after having babies (I know you ain’t there yet) haha! But as an older woman here- try taking evening primrose oil. As a supplement... I take 1 every day. Helps with pms and hormonal stuff. Taking your vitamins in general like a multi vitamin (in case you don’t take one) may help with you feeling exhausted and help with stress. Praying you get through all of this busy time! You’re doing so much for such a young person and I think you are doing amazing. Keep trying- take some deep breaths 💜 you got this!

[@carabearaa4160]

Btw I’m 30 and still have those bad acne days. Struggle is real. I feel you! But doesn’t define who you are or your beauty! You are unique and beautiful 💜

[@rayamcdowall7538]

we aren't doing any shows at the moment which is really sad

[@cayleighmoore3341]

My studio did a live performance. The audience wore masks and the group dances we had masks on, but for solos there was no mask. Everyone was socially distanced.

[@emilyhaas9141]

luckily the theater we went to said we could have 25% capacity, so just two members could come for each student in the show.

[@brisolorzano4298]

I’m not an ensemble dancer but I’m auditioning in may and they go to the competitions and we go to class in person but as for special instructors and choreographers they can’t come to our studio so they do an in person virtual class sometimes if that makes sense

[@tesswoodward4787]
