Dancers: Master Ballet Academy under direction of Slawomir & Irena Wozniak

Eva: “how are we feeling today?” Slawomir, the dramaiest of drama queens: “terrible! Look at this!” *points at chaos*

Slawomir saying “I’m ….feeling great” with pure madness in his eyes honestly sums up nutcracker season

[@A_keo]

Slawomir stopping the music mid dance and saying "What's going on?" is giving me flashbacks to Christmas dance show rehearsals, you know you're in trouble when the teacher does that

Melanie just slays every single time it’s insane

I'm obsessed with Slawomir, I'm his biggest fan. Master Ballet Academy could absolutely have a tv show and He is the main character.

[@averyandersen9418]

Slawomir “ SmElL tHe WiNe sMeLl iT” one of my favorite lines

[@redamancy119]

Congratulations to Tessa!! That’s a precious opportunity

[@griffinzoo]

I think she was in Louisiana with of our dancers, Drake!

[@JacquelineStrawberrykeep]

the fact ballerinas spin like 100mph and that’s a normal day… if I attempted that I’d easily break a hip. edit: ty for the likes lmfao

[@tt7762]

I'm watching cross legged and my quadriceps muscles are already hurting, what about if I just thought about trying to spin 😂! I'd need physiotherapy and rehabilitation for months 🤣!

[@JacquelineStrawberrykeep]

@@tt7762 😂, it is truly impressive how ballerinas do their sport.

[@tt7762]

Practice makes a difference

[@gentlegypsyasmr]

Michael checking his arms in the mirror! 😂😂😂😂 Slawek hunching playing full role! This school is hilarious!

[@BlackCat69909]

I think it's great that beneath all the rigor and hard work, they still maintain a nurturing atmosphere and allow the playfulness that is needed to turn ballett from a sport into an art form. That's what allows the dancers to reach their potential.

[@PaigeBartholomew]

And to allow children to be childlike, playful, and goofy. BUT… They obviously make the kids be serious long enough to learn ballet with the best of them! I swear to God, the school is one of the best in the country! How do you do it Slovomir and Irena?

[@macaron_ii]

The chaos of this video 😭😭😭 “Terrible! Look at this!” “SMELL. THE WINE.” Just Parker everything “Is slawek cosplaying you?” Cue slawomir’s evil glare *michal flexing and admiring his arms* “How about,” sassy voice “in the center?”

[@lazitazi5645]

One thing I like about this is that the teacher is strict, but outside rehearsals and classes, he's approachable when you're close enough. He's someone you can vibe with as long as you treat him with respect

[@Mrpresident5066]

Oh my goodness Eva, this vlog is everything. Literally made me feel like I was there, I really want to be a ballerina but I can't but this video made me feel like I was at the rehearsals myself. More vlogs please

❤❤❤

[@graceyamaguchi75]

yes, agree! thank you for this eva

I LOVE that kind of videos. Pleaseee do more of these.🎉❤

[@Evanysphotography]

Absolutely 🫡🫡

[@Ampsio]

Thank youu!!

[@haleyscore8477]

The amount and complexity of the choreography involved in this is impressive. And all the different age groups working in tandem to form a cohesive unit is just as mind boggling. That and seeing such little children so disciplined and well trained in the art as well.

[@chelsealau5441]

For a ballerina, Slawomir going: 'this is a disaster' is so accurate.

[@nourxs]

Slawomir is actually the funniest man ever we love him

[@gentlegypsyasmr]

Everyone crushin' on Slawek! Lol❤😂 Both brothers are blessed just to be fair.

[@philaeew4866]

what a chaotic mess... in the best way. Being a ballet instructor, keeping everyone motivated and overseeing everything all at once must be incredibly challenging. Big respect to the dancers and the coaches. It's a joy to watch and it must be a great feeling participating. I wish I could see a show live once!

[@redamancy119]

It’s so lovely to see this kind of vlogs🥰 yall are like a huge warming family gathered for the celebration of Christmas, and the rehearsals seemed so much fun! so happy watching it

[@Sirius_Majoris]

I absolutely love videos like these that breaks all the stereotype and preconceived ideas about ballet! It also makes me want to go to actual ballet classes but there aren't any where I live so I learn online

[@rajindersinghsidhu4302]

Melanie needs to go for a pirouette world record - her pirouettes are amazing 🤩

[@GingerNinja1]

Melanie nails it every time!! She shines so brightly with her graceful yet bada$$ skills!😂

[@elizabethweber3316]

In a strange way this energy reminds me of orchestra rehearsals - it’s so fun to see the other side of things!

[@kaylivelazquez7354]

So real

[@ambz418]

YAAAS CARLO THAT TURN WAS GREAT!!

[@aristired6252]

I would love to see the audition process and casting results for a show like this. Everyone does amazing every year. It’s so impressive to see how many different roles people play each year!

[@anaellesia7818]

Everything is just so chaotic and organised at the same time 😂 There's just too much going on, but one thing is for sure: this ballet school looks really funny! Eva, you have to keep up with these vlogs. I think I'm not the only one who had a great time watching it :)

[@sarahbeth3472]

"You shifted the circle again. Come on!" Sign of a good teacher 😂 I always love rehearsal days! It's long and exhausting, but so fun to watch it all come together!

[@VivianFiala]

Melanie violently sniffing while spinning so snot doesn’t fly out is so relatable 😂

[@Cybereve]

What I noticed, and really liked, is the diversity in skin color and body types. And showing normal eating and casual talking about food. And no screaming/hostility in the rehearsals. I get that people can act differently in front of a camera and sure there is a lot we don't get to see, but everybody seemed relaxed and natural and talking freely, and I don't believe you can fake that for so long, especially with the younger dancers and children. And although I know how hard and stressful ballet can be, this looks like a healthy environment to me.

[@LivingWaterSpanishLittleHouse]

The first sentence was very rude😢

[@Cybereve]

​​@@LivingWaterSpanishLittleHouseWhat on earth is rude on likeing diversity??? Ballet is notoriously known for being "white washed" and promoting an unsustainable body image and unhealthy eating habits. In other words, there is a prevalent image of ballet being only for small, skinny, white girls. And even some more rude stereotypes for boys. Which I find terrible. So I am really glad to see a school/company where there are not only white or paper-thin students. And I don't see what should be rude about that.

[@gskyle4822]

​@@LivingWaterSpanishLittleHouse worse than rude, focusing on the skin color... super cringe virtue signaling.

[@Dudewheresmycar1234]

There was absolutely NOTHING rude about what you said. I completely understood. My kiddo is mixed and it didn’t bother me one bit. it’s crazy to me that a simple COMPLIMENT about diversity can get turned into something SO…..cruel really. Sorry I couldn’t find a word for it. Some people will always scream racism where there is now. But thank you for your comment I completely agree with all of it.

[@Cybereve]

​@@Dudewheresmycar1234Thank you for the kind words.

[@cadencescrazylife]

Eva is like that one stray cat or dog that tags along and is just there during everything and in the midst of the chaos…I love it ❤

[@EmilyBender-e2b]

i love the little smirks from the soldiers!!! my daughter was a soldier this year in our production and had the hardest time staying in character as serious or scared because she was having so much fun watching all the chaos of the Battle Scene unfolding around her

[@Gracemck]

Slawomir : 🏃🏻‍♂️🏃🏻‍♂️🏃🏻‍♂️ “He’s a runner he’s a track star” TOOK ME OUT 💀

[@cellomommy]

I remember when my daughter was young she danced in Nutcracker with Fokine Ballet and I was stage manager Slawomir Wozniak was the Prince and Kat Wildish was Sugar Plum. They were wonderful! He came to NJ many times to do that role. What a treat to see him pass the torch to another generation.

[@MissSurpremeBallerina]

Slawomir is ICONIC a literally icon. I wish he was my teacher ✨👹👹👹

[@aishwarivania]

i really hope u continue these rehearsals as series❤❤❤❤ love the energy in the studio❤🎉

Our little community Nutcracker I'm in every year was last weekend and I didn't do much in it this year because I'm pregnant, so I'm absolutely thriving off of the extra rehearsal chaos energy ❤ These dancers are amazing!

This reminds me so much of show days … I used to do roller skating like starlight express but with other musicals like the lion king, beauty and beast, Tarzan and show days and rehearsals were just like that. Maybe a little more screaming but the chaos and the overall vibe it’s… so nostalgic and beautiful
