[@angelbeazley7012]

So nice to see a real ballerina in vogue

[@analuciagonzaleznoriega110]

Yeah 😂

[@lavender9481]

Lmao hahaha

[@mcbubblegum6272]

I told one of the girls in my class that I did ballet, she laughed at me saying I was too fat, next year I'm on point wish me luck

[@raeboxley2054]

MCBubblegum Don't you EVER let anyone treat you like that. It's probably coming from a place of jealousy. Be a shining star, sparkle and show them all what you can do. So happy for you going en pointe, please let everyone know how it goes! 💕

[@mcbubblegum6272]

Thankyou for the support, i will try my very hardest

[@danceofhope7447]

Just keep dancing. It seems like you are--that's good. I have a channel where I do a dance a day. I'm not really in classes but I love it. I have had a chronic illness all my life that has made me lose and gain weight like crazy. Just love yourself and what you do. Also--just be passionate. If you have a passion for something---just go for it.

[@anademendoza4623]

I know how it is to be seen as too big for ballet! I'm a size 3/4 and it's frustrating when others don't give you a chance just because of your size. Work hard and make sure you're doing a lot of rises to strengthen your ankles and just try your best on pointe. You've got this!

[@Angelchick4life]

I hope you didn't respond, people like that don't even deserve your time of day. Sorry you had to experience such rudeness! You're beautiful.

[@user-lz9vg9xz8y]

She is not a dancer for the Studio Company- she is a PROFESSIONAL dancer for the COMPANY.

[@kiaratheexplorer4]

she said she was a professional at the beginning

[@evag1344]

Kiara B that wasn’t what she was talking about the studio company isn’t the real company it’s before to give teenagers experience for the real company

[@TheMissSve]

This makes me want another season of Strictly Ballet. I want that really bad.

[@thatsnotmyname4091]

Yes!! Please bring back Strictly Ballet :)

[@haileyhudson4157]

Josefina-Luisa YES

[@GraceAMunn]

Josefina-Luisa they should do it with a smaller school or. Maybe PNB

[@julesm4508]

Ballet Lover I go to PNB!

[@fathimajamal6000]

Please bring back strictly ballet

[@martinenotmartini9935]

"All you can do is the best you can with what you've got." My teacher follows this principle, too, and I'm very thankful to learn in such an encouraging environment.

[@glittergirlmusic3832]

Two false things people tell a dancer: 1.) "Dance is not a sport." 2.) "Hip hop is way better exercise than ballet. Ballet is just twirling around. Ballet is easy."

[@sarahvatalaro1066]

I hate when people say that, like LMAO girl you take one bar class and lets see you talk after that

[@villanelle9634]

Glitter Girl Music especially the second one, if we perform we go through 10 pointe shoes a week!

[@mariana2916]

Those people are uneducated. Ballet is not easy at all, not even close. It's an amazing and I would even say KEY mechanism that structures your body. I've done classes like breakdance and hip hop before, and the teachers always said that doing ballet made it easier for them to be able to move the way they did

[@rachaelrobinson7374]

Also when people say twirls and spins bugs the crap out of me

[@mitakandoria3875]

All the dance styles require same amount of energy , passion and practice . What makes the difference is where and how we channelise it . I do both hip hop and contemporary ballet . Both are equally demanding .

[@kadieel7447]

She’s so beautiful inside and out. I love how she touched on ballet welcoming different body types and how she eats what she wants and can also keep healthy. She’s all in all a great influence.

[@isabellethier9454]

Hey Teen Vogue, The video description is actually false; ABT Studio Company is the "trainee" (for lack of better term) company that consists of young dancers ages 16-20 whom are preparing for companies, this is very different than Isabella's job as a principal dancer in the main company (American Ballet Theatre). I hope that this helps. :)

[@sophienewton8111]

It really annoys me when people find out that I do ballet and they're like "oh, you don't look like you dance", or just waddle in a circle with their arms hopelessly trying to resemble something similar to en couronne. Does this happen to anyone else?

[@sadespencer2474]

Sophie Newton THANK YOU, I HATE THAT SO MUCH

[@jadynbonewitz]

The worse i hate it so much

[@dashiesbbgurl]

Same thing happens to me but not with dance. I am in boxing, when i tell people who ask what i do they all said "really you don't look like you can box" then they like jokingly try to shadow box and it pisses me the fuck off, always making these jokes about girls doing boxing

[@cherrydisaster4105]

I hate it too, it’s really disrespectful towards all the sacrifices Ballet dancers make in honor of the art every day.

[@susupearl7831]

Sophie Newton YUP THE BOYS IN MY CLASS WILL PRETEND TO DO A PIROUETTE AND THEN ILL DO A REAL ONE AND THEYLL STARE AT ME AND THEY ARE LIKE “ wow.... ur good”

[@aleksandraj.956]

We need more ballet videos!!💗

[@cathyllopes]

Watching her dance live is my biggest ballet aspiration!! She is amazing :D

[@siennaparis9248]

I am dancer myself and I love seeing a happy ballerina most movies show ballerinas as depressed which they aren’t so happy to see such a beautiful ballerina and a beautiful person

[@barca231000]

she so beautiful and talented ballet dancer. One of my favourite and thank you Teen Vogue for all your ballet stories.

[@FlawlessSelMarie]

My dream is to be a professional dancer😍

[@swati_is_a_penguin2159]

You can do it! Never give up, okay?

[@FlawlessSelMarie]

thank you

[@sarahvatalaro1066]

Keep going queen! I believe in you!!

[@anniesantics3329]

Same dream!!! Maybe we’ll meet each other eventually... probs not but one can hope 😂

[@natbug1865]

Same

[@anasofiarovalovera7375]

For me dance is the greatest thing. Dancers are athletes. 💯🙌🏻

[@mindys1198]

I had no idea how difficult ballet was until i tried a Ballerina workout video on KZbin, it made muscles hurt I didnt even know I had and i workout at a gym and at home regularly. These ladies are so strong and graceful

[@arielalena]

She's so pretty & her voice is so calming 😍😂

[@lberny0203]

Strictly Ballet season 3, PLEASE!

[@praeclara297]

Just realise the pieces she rehearse are part of Sleeping Beauty ballet

[@hay_bail1]

Why does the description say “Studio Company” ? She is in THE company!

[@belfry.bats.xx.]

I saw her rehearsing the Rose Adagio from Sleeping Beauty and wanted to scream. It's my favorite part of any ballet ever (though the pas de quatre from Swan Lake is a close second!) I adore Sleeping Beauty

[@sammyking4949]

Well at least they feature a real ballerina. Not Kendull who can pull one facial expression with every magazine cover giver to her

[@TheNonMakeupGuru]

Please get over yourself. She does whats required of her to do for her job. The shoot you're talking about was a ballet inspired shoot, she didn't have a choice in what was happening. If you want someone to hate, hate on the people who actually planned the shoot. Side note, This video used a soloist or a princeable. Not a very good representation of what a day to day life is actually like as they have a very different day compared to the core girls.

[@sammyking4949]

NOPE. at her 'supermodel' stage, she 100% has control over what kind or theme of photoshoot she wants to put herself into. She's just plain uneducated and inconsiderate which is understandable, I mean her sisters are cultural appropriators themselves

[@anushkakotian]

okay.

[@TheNonMakeupGuru]

Sammy King Hahahahah you deluded idiot. No model has control over what shes shooting unless she was the one to put forward the idea. She is just the casted model, she had no control over what the subject was. Get a clue

[@LuisaVictoria12]

Anushka Kotian she means Kendall Jenner because she just did a ballet photo shoot and she's not a dancer in any way

[@OliviaGobbell]

I got accepted into the ABT young dancers workshop in Orange County and i am soooo excited!!

[@shelleyroper540]

I'm watching this while getting ready for ballet

[@delainegneco7352]

me too

[@vanessakim6890]

Shelley Roper i should be getting ready...

[@danceconsortium]

Great to get an insight into a ballerinas life and she was so positive and happy

[@ArtistsByAnyOtherName]

Def!

[@fenacansbuilds5688]

People that say dance isn’t a sport. It is a sport! It might be an elegant sport but it’s worth the time and training. Even though it looks elegant you need the strength and power especially turns like pirouettes and a la seconds.

[@Maggie541]

I'm doing beginner ballet this year but I've done jazz dance for 2 years

[@elianashin]

I want to see whatever ballet they're rehearsing. The part with the roses looks cool

[@mischieved454]

It's Sleeping Beauty.

[@mariannarussell6901]

It's Rose Adagio from Sleeping Beauty

[@hay_bail1]

Eliana Shin - Sleeping Beauty!

[@yohandrys]

Her body is perfect!

[@rmannayr2129]

SHE IS A REAL BALLERINA!

[@WindmillTea]

:) she's so positive and beautiful

[@julietteileana3518]

she is so amazing.

[@gerritduplessis7122]

THANK YOU, GREATLY! VERY MUCH APPRECIATED! BLESSINGS!!

[@lmgutier]

She’s so cute and talented!

[@zufeensayed1336]

I always wanted to do ballet....but never afforded it....now i m going to become a DR....makes me sad and happy at the same time

[@valdejajean6023]

zufeen sayed What is a DR

[@rmannayr2129]

SHE IS A GREAT DANCER!

[@shartrezlittle8952]

she said so many good things

[@terryannmaes5538]

She is fantastic

[@starlitsky4156]

What a lovely lady

[@Fullhouse1995]

her dress was so cute!

[@alexandracole9133]

Omg I loved her street style! That outfit was the bomb

[@itsmarco6340]

This was so inspirational! Thank you!

[@lostmelodyy]

That moment when you see someone doing stuff like that while making it look astonishingly easy and you just know that you will never ever even be close to that...

[@bbea1459]

she's great 💃

[@zes3813]

wrr

[@michaelastandridge8617]

Am I the only,one who flinched when she broke the shank in her pointe shoes?!! If I did that I would have to but a new pair in like 2 days

[@mimihart4383]

Please do a life of a professional figure skater

[@chiara4243]

I wear the same pointe shoes as Isabella .... I feel special 😂

[@gabriellenordine7367]

I love her she’s so inspirational 🧡🥰✨🤪

[@babetteateoatmeal7854]

i need advice! i started dancing ballet when i was 4, and i had dreams of becoming a professional dancer. unfortunately when i was 12 i had an ankle injury (not too serious, i was off dancing for a month) but when they x-rayed my ankle to check if it was healed, they found out i had severs disease, which is to do with growing rapidly and exercise, and it became too sore to dance on. my coaches and parents agreed i would take a year off, then come back with it all healed. but we moved out to the country and there are no studios around us now, and i never went back to dancing. i'm 15 now, and all i want to do is be a dancer. i can't imagine being happy in any other life where i'm not a professional dancer, but i can't take lessons now. what should i do?

[@elvanderen8337]

We wear the exact same pointe shoes 😂 even the 2X and size

[@oldschoolcollodion]

What a delight she is,

[@mujerespejada2]

I LOVE herrrrr

[@linnycrocus6023]

I wish I did something with my life.

[@avidepano5937]

Also cool to see Stella Abrera and Janie Taylor :)

[@annchen522]

YES TEEN VOGUE!!!1

[@oliviacupcake2146]

No joke! I have been dancing since I was 3 and I'm 10-they asked me if I wanted to become a prima/company dancer!💃🏻 SHe also is amazing!

[@fullsunsqtpinky9926]

A prima ballerina is different from a principal dancer #justsaying

[@catherinelariviere8562]

I thought the same thing!

[@sophiagriffiths5301]

Angel Megumi what's the difference? (Not trying to be rude, I actually want to know)

[@AzAries]

Angel Megumi I thought they were the same?

[@callmeyourdai5y518]

a 'prima ballerina' is a high honour, it's the second highest title given to a dancer. It's a mark of respect for those with an exceptional career. A principal dancer is a hierarchic title for a dancer who is in the highest rank of a company and is usually called upon for the main roles in a ballet. Prima Ballerina is sometimes interchangeable in some European companies but in general its a title rather than a rank.

[@noblesetsentimentales]

It's the same. "Principal dancer" is simply prima ballerina in Italian. You may be thinking of the prima ballerina assoluta title.

[@_solange]

Ballerinas are so beautiful

[@josijosi4137]

I love her

[@ArtistsByAnyOtherName]

ikr!

[@vikii4494]

here is a tip if someone says ballet isnt a sport. make em try a develope without sickling there foot and lifting their hip :))

[@abcella]

ah, I really wanna go back to ballet but idk if I should :(

[@agatajozefiak5359]

Does anyone know where is the black floral dress from? (The one she's wearing on the street). It's soo beautiful!

[@dennislaux]

A beautiful face, a killer body with tons of grace and gentleness along with the ability to actually speak English and communicate well. I can't think of a better package, so......never forget that some of us out here LOVE something beautiful with grace and dignity like you preform and live out in your life.. Thanks for the dedication and giving us all hope that the world is not all lost and we humans are still capable of wonderful things. Bless you always.

[@wilkinssoto6280]

i loved her she is pretty great

[@poohwithayellowshirt]

What are those shorts (the green and purple ones she wears) called? I'm trying to find them for myself, just don't know what they're called. help!

[@Tintenfischchen]

She's great! :)

[@zes3813]

wrr

[@Amy-ir3iz]

Beautiful.

[@chocolatechipcookies2947]

I'm nine years old I love ballet I could do a Dibble pourawet

[@liv5776]

I wish I was her that is the dream

[@babycupid7518]

YO WHY’D THE CHIROPRACTOR LOOK LIKE THE GUY FROM THE HUMAN CENTIPEDE 😂😂

[@sarahbry1834]

I feel like Ballet can make a girl look very light and elegant where as Hip-Hop and Jazz can make a girl look a bit tougher and that's the same with men as well.

[@char2967]

When I tell my friends I do ballet they'll more likely roll there eyes and run away. :,)

[@CURLY507HEAD]

You know what, time might change that. Classmates used to not take ballet seriously in school and now that I'm studying people around me are actually rather impressed because they know it's very demanding and difficult. Just stick to it if you love it. :)

[@funkiebutch9690]

American ballet is so different than Russian ballet.

[@lilybingxibyrnes9007]

What brand of pointe shoes does she wear?

[@indiand6460]

If you pause it at 0:32 you can see they are Bloch Balance European in XX

[@lburgess63]

Wow. That was a seriously pretty unsupported pirouette there you did in class, lady. Prima, absolutely.

[@ieatedsoapnoididnt]

i like how the women are all wearing pointe shoes while the guys are just wearing sneakers lmao

[@isabellebailey8183]

WHERE IS THAT DRESS FROM

[@leropf]

Finally a dancer that cares about what she eats- there are so many videos out there about ballerinas eating a lot of produced stuff:/

[@BriefcaseWanker]

Anyone can kick a soccer ball and throw a football, those are some basic skills in popular sports, but not everyone can do a pirouette en pointe, just saying✊
