Royal Ballet morning class - barre and centre

[@rckscissrspaper123]

I don’t know why but watching Olga kindly observe the dancers makes me cry. I can’t handle how sweet and caring she looks and yet at the same time it amazes me how she manages to give all the individual advices between instructions. Everything is so smooth and beautiful.

[@Ihmekummatossu]

She is so inspiring and seems to be noticing everything.

[@alessandrosmartins]

She has this funny way of making some corrections as well, like in 3:40 and 1:02:38.

[@lexicopathe]

I agree !

[@natcostant]

i don't know exactly how or why, but i get a very particular, yet incredibly good feeling watching those ballet classes. i can feel a pleasurable tranquility... i love the movements, the progression of rhythm and difficulty, the students exchanging glances, the clothes, the pianist... for a brief hour i can really disconnect from all my reality and feel myself there, inside that room, for a moment i can imagine myself living in a cloudy london, waking up early, taking the underground and going to that class. terrific! greetings from brazil! 💕

[@KJ-jq9pq]

I am recovering from a very bad ankle fracture and I have been doing this class (barre). It has helped immensely with my movement. I listen to Olga's directions and corrections. I have never danced, but I did do gymnastics many many years ago. My doctor and physio are impressed with my progress. So thank you very much!

[@roomofmirrorsbest]

Wowww is it safe to dance ballet for your ankle situation? That’s impressive!!!

[@Trenchant468]

Once bone and soft tissue are healed sufficiently. Consult doc.

[@tiwantiwaabibiman2603]

Try getting some acupuncture from a good "Dr" that will help your recovery immensely. I now swear by acupuncture (from the right person) after three injuries in three years. One was a really bad ankle sprain - nothing as serious as yours. I'm older so my recovery was paramount... Acupuncture, chiro, foods/herbs to reduce inflammation and major doses of Vit D from the intense TX summer sun also helped a lot. Keep getting better and stronger!

[@maddielopez8625]

Hope you’re healing beautifully! 😊

[@morahjayne699]

As an older woman now, having been a dancer, a teacher and a dance teacher from my early teens into my 20’s, I truly appreciate Olga’s clear, precise ways with all her students. Dance is such a gentle way to love discipline, the arts, your community, the craft itself, the music, your fellow artists, and have respect for your teacher, and YES, your body, heart, and soul. So moving! Thank you 🙏

[@Toonksbell43]

Im not a ballet dancer and never have been, but this randomly got recommended to me and this was the most calming thing to have on while journaling and preparing for the rest of my day i cant fully explain why but its like being part of the class without actually being there.

As an opera singer it's DEEPLY gratifying to watch such excellent and skilled practitioners of a sister art at work. It's interesting for me to note that discipline and technique are the most important criteria in all the classical arts.

I really like this teacher, she is authoritative in correcting the mistakes of the dancers, without diminishing their skill. Had I had it, my life as a dancer would have been clearer...

I am not a dancer but a seventy nine year old artist who has very little interest in classical ballet and yet I begin many days watching these ballet classes. I find them terrifically moving and I'm not sure exactly why.

How come you feel a need to evaluate her physical appearance? We have all aged in those 9 years. Why not focus on how professional and knowledgeable she is instead (considering she is in fact teaching the class)?!

Love Olga! Such a gentle and caring teacher. And the pianist is wonderful! A great class to follow along at home, even for non-dancers, just for exercise and stretching.

She's still someone who always stands out for me. I recognize her by seeing her movements before I see her face.

I don't have a balletic bone in my body (sadly) but watching these classes makes me feel like I could fly. Utterly mesmerising and beautiful to watch and the incredible work these dancers put in to make it look so effortless! I'm also in awe of the pianists!

[@JMarieCAlove]

No one does until they learn, practice and rehearse. I bet most of the people in this ballet class didn't either, they just wanted to be a ballet dancer and every person who starts a ballet class, has no idea what they're doing until the instructor tells them what to do, and slowly they become professional after continuous practice. People who want to be a doctor, they start off not knowing one thing about the human anatomy or even what kind of doctor they want to be, they first think of wanting to save lives and fix people. All you can do it try it. It's not easy but if you're passionate about ballet, you can turn out to be a famous ballet dancer!

[@denelva]

This is not just one of my favourite videos for relaxing, but I love stretching to it! I work as a stable groom and my body aches from it. I love my work but it's hard on my body, especially now in my 40's. I always stretch after work but it's only been a few months since I discovered Olga's classes and it's just the BEST video to listen to and watch while I stretch. Very few people can comprehend how much I need to stretch not to get injuries or simply too stiff to function and plenty of people have been shocked when I tell them that during the most strenuous days, I need to stretch and flex for up to an hour - in really gruesome cases an hour and a half! Listening to Olga and watching the class makes me feel like I have company - from people who more than most understand the time it requires to keep your body fit for a whole day of hard physical labor. Even if my job and theirs are worlds apart, I feel strangely understood. The foot excercises to strenghten the them at the barre are excersises I do too and just in general it helps me with posture and balance while handling the horses. I wish there were more of these videos with Olga. I've watched the ones I can find and they're amazing.

[@ash-lynnsarah8626]

I so wish I had stuck with ballet as a child. Like most young girls I did it briefly as a young kid, but only stuck with it for about a year or two before stopping. I'm not sure why I stopped, we were poor so maybe it was money. Or maybe my little child brain just wanted to do something else. Either way, now I'm 28 years old and have far too many health issues stemming from years of repeated injuries that even if starting this late was possible, I'd never dance professionally. Really really wish I'd stuck with it. If I'd had the chance to build up the strength and flexibility before things started going so poorly for me, my life could have been a lot different :( Beautiful dance. I'll continue to appreciate it from the sidelines regardless.

Thanks very much for another brilliant class by the always wonderful Olga Evreinoff. She is simply one of the best - wise, musical, succinct in her exercises & corrections.... The dancers look terrific & beautiful, as always. The Royal Ballet holds the gold standard. The pianist is also very good, again befitting the benchmark the Royal maintains. On a technical note, the camera work is frustrating. Please, as Fred Astaire insisted, let the dancers dance with their entire bodies. The constant tight cropping on body parts & faces, is highly distracting, non-dance-sense - from what Olga is teaching & what the dancers are executing. In previous years, one could catch the entire exercise before the camera started wandering around. All the dancers watching WBD eagerly await whatever the ballet master/mistress is offering, & the dizzying camera editing is maddening as well as limiting.
