[@ElizabethHeath-u4e]

Same here 😊

[@juliannefowler150]

Thank you Kathryn for offering this fantastic class. You are so very kind and generous! Thank you for all that you do for us. I’m very excited to have a live class with a prima ballerina soloist. You’re the best and we love you!

[@Koljuska]

Thank you, this is perfect! As a "hobby dancer" I always struggle with time and space constraints when I train at home and this class is an immaculate package for me. I also very much enjoy your helpful comments throughout the combinations (in any of your classes). Thank you for the immense amount of great work you put into this!

[@anahiiyt]

this is awesome! i have an audition this weekend and haven’t been in a proper pointe class in over a month because of nutcracker and winter break, and i was looking for a video like this! thank you!

[@joyofthelorddance4806]

Great for if you only have a short time and small space! I like the option to use pointe shoes, too. Thanks for sharing!

[@brendastevens9077]

So Fun!!! My cats Loved the Music. Honestly, I think they like you. Everytime you come on, there right there listening to you, and happy happy.😊🐱❤❤

[@katebierly3089]

I always get so excited when I see you post a new class! You are such a great teacher and I love learning from you. I get EXTRA excited when I see you've added center work - I find it so fun and challenging! Please keep it up, you're the best!

[@Hamalise]

childhood competitive figure skater here, turned adult ballet dancer about 2 years ago... this class is *perfect* for my skill level right now! just simple enough where I don't have to watch a portion of an exercise repeatedly to understand and challenging enough to really work technique. Thank you :)

[@zoehelensolomon6943]

I haven't done ballet in 17 years and have been doing your classes to regain confidence before I go back to class. Amazing video. Thank you so so much

[@cf8595]

living for the exact same tone and thoughts at 35:12. THANK YOU FOR THE REAL

[@amywilde-taylor3222]

Thank you! New content from you is as exciting as Christmas morning! Thanks for taking the time! I do your routines over and over again~so thanks also for 'no intro' versions. You are so generous with your time and talents.

[@anastasialenkova-molchalin5874]

I can't wait for this! Especially when it's summer and I can't go to class. Thank you so much for posting!

[@Ck.cupcake.25]

I absolutely love this class! I feel like it is challenging, but not overwhelming. The perfect summer class. Just what I needed 😍

[@samileroy6499]

Thank you so much!! I love your classes, and you’ve helped me get through both the pandemic and an ankle injury. Can’t wait to do this class!

[@Pluizje1998]

Welcome back! Another amazing ballet class.

[@CorinnePina]

This is so beautiful . It will be really challenging for me, but I’m very excited to try this. I will definitely do it on flat and then maybe try parts of the barre in pointe shoes. I feel that the tendu exercises in pointe shoes really help strengthen your feet even more.

[@rachelcavanagh3782]

Love this class!! I really like these intermediate classes that have options to be more challenging!

[@Stelladanslesetoiles]

That was amazing Kathryn, thank you so much. I've been learning ballet since december 2021 thanks to your videos, I'm improving everyday ! I did it on flat shoes and was so happy to see that you made a center too. I tried it and was able to follow along ! Still need to improve my arabesque and my développé though :)

[@Hellbender8574]

I love all of your classes. They are invaluable for keeping up during the summer. Thank you for creating all of these resources for extra practice.

[@BarbaraHernando]

I love these themed inspired ballet classes!!! Thank you for this awesome content!!!

[@rebekahnewman3876]

Oh my gosh, this video is so nostalgic for our adult intensive 😭 I will cherish this barre in particular for being filmed in the same room as all those wonderful memories! I will miss this studio but I can’t wait to see your new spaces Kathryn & Chris. Sending you all my love. ❤️❤️❤️

[@amandawells-frailey6527]

Very nice! I love the center combos at the end - challenging but achievable! Thank you!

[@TheJollyGiant18]

Love this class so much!!!!! Thank you Katy!

[@savannahjadedobbs]

On my budget months/weeks/days here in NYC, when I can’t afford to take class every day, I love to take your classes! Thank you for all you do and your generosity!!

[@Balletpro1]

Thank you, Ms Morgan for such a lovely class for this mature teacher!!! I love finding new and different ways to present ballet to my students!!!! congratulations on your engagement and new adventure with the studio!!!!

[@Mel-xz8dc]

[@sienablier8931]

I can't believe it took me so long to finally try this barre! It's such a treat! Thank you so much Kathryn

[@martabressanin6352]

Amazing class as always. I've also found very useful the strength and stretch workout you did a couple of years ago, can you register an updated version? Thank you so much for keeping inspiring amateurs like me!

[@deborahford8470]

[@camilapihn8654]

Hi Miss Kath, i want it to thank you so so much for this class. I've benn struggling with ballet because i started a more intermediate- advanced class in my ballet school where all the girls are awesome and i just feel out of place there and so defeated at times... also i´m having a hard time with my body lately because of body dismorphia and feel so ugly. Today i wanted to take this class from you because i wanted to feel better about myself and it felt amazing, i loved it and enjoy it so so much, thank you and please please never stop doing this incredible classes, lots of love all the way from Argentina, and once again, thank you ! 😊

I'm so excited to try this out! Unfortunately I recently tore my hip so it will have to wait :( I love all your ballet classes though!

Thank you for your class, i like your style of teaching and showing your personality. From Lugo, Galicia, Spain.

[@patrizia1029]

Love, love, love this class! So perfect to catch up after almost a week away from the studio. Really ideal in every way. Thank you! PS I live in LA and hopefully I'll make it to your new studio in the OC (at least once), if/when you have any adult classes on your schedule :)

[@AtlasNV]

💕💕💕I know how I'll be testing my new point shoes 🩰

[@AngelTiinii]

i was going to do this class but instead i just sat and watched your beautiful barre work instead. So beautiful. I was also literally thinking i wonder which part of the studio this is when you answered my internal question with "this is not the new studio by the way if you were wondering" such perfect freaky timing hahaha. I may rewind after i finish watching to do the class myself or ill do it another day, Either way you've inspired me, maybe i won't skip ballet tomorrow afterall. Thank You

Ciao Kathy! So wonderful to have a new class on pointe intermediate! May I ask if possible for you to make a class for beginners center on pointe? I am 51 and need to learn all the passages more carefully and slowly...thank you in advance🤗🌺😍 Ps I made it on this one but on flat as I am not ready to do the entire class on pointe yet.

Hey Katie! I love your videos, thank you so much! I’m performing my first variation in about a week but I always get super tired and red while performing it, do you have any tips on being able to maintain energy throughout a variation?

[@yujuti8416]

Hi Kathryn! I play piano for my local ballet company and classes in university dance department, and while I get compliment from company dancers/professors a lot, I am still very self-conscious about my improvisation skill--I basically have NONE. 99% of the time I stick to the sheet music I chose, and I am worried the dancers may be sick of hearing the same thing after having 3 classes with me. I do want to loosen up and be playful, but since I am always assigned to advance classes, the pace is much faster and I am just too afraid to mess up, so I always chicken out at last minute and stick to my same old sheet music. Like you said in one of the "ballet myth" videos, most dancers are nice people, so I always wonder the compliment I get from the dancers is just them being kind. What's your thought about musicians who can't improvise? Thanks in advance!

[@yzauriacosta1374]

Oh my god! Repeating that adagio in the center #dead 🥴 But amazing anyways... as always!! Thank you!

[@rebeccaroberts8120]

So weird hearing the tendus music, as it is used in the RAD Grafe 8 syllabus 😂

[@solid_outlook_8135]

Hey I have one question doing with the tendus so when your doing one after the plíe is there a different name for the three quicker “tendus”? And what is the name of the step after the tendus where you bring your leg up into passé and extend it out

[@JGreen-le8xx]

[@olgaehrenberg7412]

Hi, I have an important question. Yesterday we were doing demi plies with arms in first position. And I noticed that I don‘t know how far I have to go down the demi plies. My ballet friend told me that there is an easy rule: You really have to go as far down as possible without lifting your feet from the ground. Is that rule right? Because when I follow this rule I have the feeling that I am way to deep in my demi plie. Pleasee help! Ps: Sorry for my english mistakes. I am from germany.

[@-leo-7578]

Yes! Go down as far as you can without lifting your heels. It is good that you can go far down, a deep plié is very beautiful

[@norwegian24]

sheet music to this please? :-)
