starting ballet in my 20's| cozy studio vlog!

[@elainesutton7183]

Very nice. I started ballet at age 50 and wish I had started earlier as I really love it. It's been 12 years since I started and right now I take 2 technique classes per week followed by 2 pointe classes per week. Never in a million years did I ever think I'd be able to dance en pointe but here we are. Never give up on your dreams.

[@SassyVlogsBySam]

Loveee that! I would love to go on point one day! Thank you 🩰🎀

[@princesschampagnie7156]

Wow you inspire me ❤️‍🔥

[@Nenenospaces]

Definitely motivating me

[@lizwidner1208]

That is so amazing!!!!! I've always wanted to go en pointe and I thought it was too late in my 30s. You are inspiring!!!

[@ElisaSpencer]

Wow, I admire you sooo much! Congrats on you development... I also will start pointe class next week as a 62 year old. I did take ballet when I was younger and was in a pre-professional group for just 2 years and then had a knee injury as well as started college. I did not dance consistently for a long time however, when possible took classes off and on through out the years, but due to knee injury would stop. Two years ago I decided that I needed to start exercising again, so started taking ballet classes. I started with a beginners class and now I am strong enough (due to muscle memory)to take more advance classes and as previously mentioned, my ankles are strong enough to start pointe classes. My knee is the only issue after class as it swells and hurts a bit. I am trying to find a physical therapist who has worked with dancers but have not been able to find anyone yet! Elaine continue the good work as it will strengthen you as you get older! By the way would love to see you dancing do you have any videos?

I am starting today at 13 and I was really scared because I felt like it was too late to start but after seeing this it made me realize it’s never too late, thank you 🥰

[@claireschweizer4765]

Haven't even watched this yet but it warms my heart when anyone wants to do ballet especially when they start late!!! So exciting and fabulous!! Good luck to you!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@MJsaBitterLemon]

You have a lot of natural talent! You hold yourself well :) Also I can see that you chose a good studio. Your teacher isn't afraid to get in there and make corrections

[@SassyVlogsBySam]

She’s soo kind and patient!

[@PRINCESS2U_]

I'm starting at 24, i'm super excited.

[@MissRain-xt2vj]

You are beautiful and have a natural flair for ballet. I restarted my adult ballet journey about 8 months ago and have found so much inspiring content here on Utube. I'm pleased to have found your channel and encourage you to keep at it because you are amazing! 🧚‍♀

[@javo2685]

I'm a trans male about to turn 21 and I would absolutely love to start dancing but sometimes I feel too insecure about a lot of stuff. Today I was watching ballet videos like I usually do and your update showed up. You really inspired me! I wish you all the best!! Love your energy ❤ and I wish to see more about your experiences happy holidays!

[@SassyVlogsBySam]

do what makes you happy! it’s 2023, we’re letting go of how we think others will view😊 us! Good luck 🩰

[@YOLLIE.]

Such a cute vid! I also started taking ballet regularly again at 20 and am now a ballet teacher ❤

[@MeMe-cf4ql]

Your studio is soooo pretty 🎀✨

[@Nenenospaces]

My mom has 5 kids too as a single parent. I’m 34 now and I’m about to start.

[@FlawlessAretha]

Literally, I was mesmerized with the dance moves..so intricate and elegant. I’m happy that you’re embarking on your passion💖

[@emmaww9049]

I'm a bit late to this, but thank you so much for posting this! I'm 23 and never danced before, but I'm very interested in it and trying my best to pluck up the courage to sign up for an intro adult ballet class in my area--getting a glimpse of what it will be like really helped me to finally sign up!

[@claireschweizer4765]

I have been singing since I was five but unfortunately my ballet journey didn't officially start until I was 16.. so I'm goin' on nearly 6 years now but I love it so so much!!

[@estray-_-]

Ahh it’s so cool to see my old teachers! She taught me at the rock school! (｡☌ᴗ☌｡)♡*° also our extremely gifted! You have wonder natural turnout! Hope you enjoy ballet! Love to see other black ballerinas ☆.。.:*・゜

[@SassyVlogsBySam]

I have no idea what having a good turnout means 🙈 but thanks soo much! 💕

[@Mimi-d3y1f]

Fellow ballet dancer here :) you've got amazing turnout - you'll go a long way for sure! Keep up the good work

[@SassyVlogsBySam]

@@Mimi-d3y1f thank you so much!

[@claireschweizer4765]

What a beautiful studio!!!

[@marisa9832]

Wait I knew that I recognized this studio! I'm also in Philly and I've gone here once before. I've been meaning to get back into ballet. Is this your first time doing ballet besides that college class?! You are so graceful and seem very natural already!

[@SassyVlogsBySam]

Loveeee it there! Everyone is soo friendly and correct, I took a ballet basics class at Penn State for a semester but that was over 7 years ago. This is basically my first time doing it consistently:)

[@luxury7515]

New subscriber your so pretty can’t wait to see your progression ❤️

[@guessthatmakesmeevill]

I’m a younger ( 11 ) ballerina and you have inspired me thanks!

[@scarl3t.p3ntagramz]

Your vlogs are so beautiful and you’ve made me want to restart ballet! I’m 17 and I know i will never be able to become a ballerina as a job but i really want to be able to be as good as professionals🥺 hopefully one day i will💗

[@SassyVlogsBySam]

Thanks and you never know! Good luck 💕

[@iSoufflo]

you are so graceful!!!

[@Luvluna19]

When I read the headline I was like wow there is hope for me 😭 even tho I would just take as a hobby more , but seeing you is just so inspiring hopefully I can take ballet classes to , it’s like my barbie dream literally as a kid I wanted to dance like them wow you go gurl ✨🤍

[@ForensicDreamer]

So graceful, so beautiful. I love this for you. I'm excited to continue watching your journey. 💗

[@SassyVlogsBySam]

Thank you so much!!❤

[@juanis8219]

I love it!!! I’m 20 I’d love to start ballet in the next year. But it makes me a little nervous. You’re a beautiful dancer and definitely seem to have more of a natural ability for it. This gives me hope 🤞 I gotta work up the courage

[@SassyVlogsBySam]

Aw Thanks soo much! And I started at 25 so you can do it!

[@janetslater129]

Very nice. I'm taking an adult beginnign ballet class as well. I took about 3 semesters of ballet when I was in college, but that was over 20 years ago at this point. I'm mostly doing it to compliment my gymnastics and figure skating skating (all started when I was in my 30s), and I'm really hoping that there will be big improvements as a result.

[@AdrianasWonderland]

[@jerrydouglas4583]

Ah! I want you to try my Ballet Secrets. They will help you go faster. Your video is so good! Your grand plie’ doesn’t look like a beginner. This fast forward is cool. I love when she does your Rond de jambe en dedans for you. That’s a rite of passage. All pros have had a teacher carry their leg from behind before. Please say hello if you’d like some help. I am ex pro…
