Im a dancer and I think telling people that they have nice feet is always weird to hear if you're not a dancer lol, but if you are you know its such a big compliment. you are such a good dancer mackenzie! 💗

[@KarlaDancess]

I started ballet when I was three and my dance teacher said you have amazing feet my response was: sorry you can’t have them 💀

[@imnoodleone9426]

That is so true, people look at me weirdly when I tell them their feet are pretty. I wud too I guess

[@idioticbagel2833]

Ikr!! If a non dancer who doesn’t have a clue what it means in the dance world says it, I do not take the compliment.

I think another relatable dancer thing is having damaged hair but you don’t want to cut it because you need the perfect length for your bun!

This was 100% relatable, also doing random ballet moves while talking to someone and doing stretching when your classmates see you and they just have those faces...you know what I mean👀

[@itz_samm19]

omg i sometimes just do random port de bras (also instretching idk why) as and tendus and my non dancer friends look at me weirdly when theyre talking to me

i always do releves and eleves when i'm bored and i've had that habit for over a year now... and also i like walking around in demi pointe i keep getting told to stop doing turns in the kitchen and i do random ballet moves everywhere... including the airport and the shopping mall and the grocery store-

Stretching everywhere! yes! I'm 28. quit dancing at 19 because of health issues. My husband and I met when I was 14, been dating since, been married for 4 years. in 14 years, he still has not gotten used to me stretching everywhere, and I still do it 9 years after "retiring." He walks into the room and I'm sitting on the couch scrolling Instagram wrapped up in a stretch pretzel or waving a leg in the air. Every time he looks at me like I've lost my mind. 🤣 it's still so comfy

[@jackson5802]

The not being able to move one is so relatable, I say as I am curled up on my bed after three hours of dance directly after school.

Same except I go for 2 hours and 30 minutes 😢😂😊

[@princessmarlena1359]

Same here.

Just had to pause and say the not being able to move section was brilliant and I almost died laughing. I have definitely laid curled up on the bathroom floor staring into space after class before 🤣

[@ghaleable]

I also died laughing! When she was in the same position, but moved across the floor a few feet 😆🤣🤣🥰

[@aprilnorris7196]

I loved this video, it is so relatable. Other weird things I can add but at traffic lights I always want to (but never have) perform a develope and push down into a split to press the button. Also battments/ developes devant to open doors (I’ve been caught doing that before) performing a grande jete or saut de chat in hallways. Performing full out variations in the kitchen and leaping through fields and then someone catching you so you have to awkwardly pretend your jogging I could honestly say more but this comment would be way too long.

[@folkmoreswiftie]

I do all of these, too 😂

[@automaticexternaldefibrillator]

[@lauralboyles4514]

Snapping at each other or being snapped at in class is the best thing ever. It is sometimes accompanied by "Yassssss!" Love the support so much.

[@DanceChickaDee]

I can’t help but say it when I see someone nail something! The yaaaaaassssss is the the best form of support to tell you that was great😂👍🏽 When I teach I snap and say NIIIIICE!

[@robloxadventures5495]

Something I found that me and another dancer do are sit on your bed/couch in wierd positions to get comfortable

omg bruh im writing this in a weird hip stretching position while laying sideways texting my friend

[@JustARandomDancer13]

You can sit during class? Lucky

[@pineappledanceschool6841]

OKay: everything made sense to me as "normal" (apparently I'm a crazy dancer - or was once long ago...), until I got to the "can't move after a full day of dance (fetal on on the floor with dread/depressed music - utterly brilliant!!!), and I legit laughed out loud for that whole thing!!! Thank you Kenzie!!!! I and my students LOVE you!!!

[@LadyBlack22]

Honestly, I've been snapping for ages longer than I've been taking ballet/dance. It's from the jazz/poetry community because snapping is quieter than clapping. I kind of love doing it secretly because it's like a more passive form of clapping and I can do it with one hand. The clip of you stretching in the bathroom was so funny.. and also just zoom in on the jet glue.. and also the not being able to move. Why was this so funny?

[@phantom41458]

i loved this video! so relatable!! one that really got me was stretching literally everywhere; i do this soooo much. Actually this morning at school a small club i'm in was meeting in the gym and we were all sitting on the floor. now, my hips are always tight and i'm always trying to get a deeper stretch, so i just inadvertently slid into a full split, totally cold, and the girl next to me just looked at me like i was insane...

[@Becca-tk3dl]

At 4:04 I literally thought that was Hurricane for Hamilton.✨ Also another relatable things is when you find Bobby pins everywhere

[@MardonAnimations]

At school sometimes I hide behind a bookshelf or desk and go into my widest straddle split, it's the literal only position that makes my sore knees and ankles feel better

[@cassiewehse8942]

Omg yess I especially relate to the cracking one! Today I got fitted for my first pair of point shoes and every time I had to plie my ankles and legs would pop! 😂

[@steveclark6307]

Why was I literally sitting in a split stretch when you mentioned stretching everywhere? 🤣🤣🤣

[@abbyl5116]

THE SNAPPING IS SO RELATABLE

[@mermaidopulence8539]

Omg everytime I pick something up I literally do an arabesque just to pick it up everytime. Oh and to add to your leotard bit, I was in class one day and I was wearing a new red leotard and it was more stretchy than my regular leotards and my girls just kept bouncing the whole class and it completely threw me off.......so yea that was fun

LOVE the thumbnail!!! It's so true!!!!

[@martinabrunetti162]

Me today in the mirror: "Alright idk let's try to do a tilted attitude because I want my tilt" And my hips popped so nicely that I tried a tilt later when I stretched (It was my first time and wasn't really bad) Really? Sweat can be hairspray? I have always my baby hair messing around mi head and the dance room is so wet I sweat for an hour and a half straight... I will try this

[@phantom41458]

jet glue is like super glue but stronger. we put it on the soft parts of our pointe shoes, like the shank or in the box, when they start to die, or stop supporting our foot, to keep the shoe going just a little bit longer. personally, jet glue doesn't do that much for me but i use it on every pair anyways haha
