Don Quixote Inspired Barre | Intermediate Advanced Ballet Class | Kathryn Morgan

[@kathryn_morgan]

Hi - So I have removed mid-video ads. (I can't control what ads you see btw). BUT... if an ad interrupts your class, PLEASE let me know. But I think I fixed it! xoxo

[@milaa4590]

You are love.

[@VeryMerryKim]

I wish KZbin would give more control over ads. I didn't get any mid-rolls and I LOVED this class. One of my favorites!

[@esstown]

I've gotten around this problem in previous barres by playing the whole thing first - since so far the mid-video adds don't repeat on the second loop. It's a good time to warm up, takes about the right amount of time.

[@Saphyelle]

Thank you! I already commented under the Video in question, but your long streaching routine video has 6 mid video ads for me, I would love to do that one again. :)

[@esstown]

The adds are important - people need to get paid for the hard work they do to put these videos together. It takes a lot of time to put together a good quality barre video, and the equipment needed for the good audiovisual quality can be expensive.

[@sigridpetersen7901]

This is, without doubt, the most amazing idea for barre ever. Such a good way to change up the routine and work on artistry! I can't wait to try it!!

[@kathryn_morgan]

Thank you! This also gives me so many more ideas for barres now. Because I will admit - I was getting stuck!

[@sigridpetersen7901]

So understandable! I can’t wait to see what other awesome things you’ll come up with!

[@ayleenmeriam8678]

I live in a VERY rural area with no access to in-person ballet classes. I’ve been following your videos for a month now and am having a blast! It’s taking a while for me to remember what I learned as a child but it is slowly coming back

[@mojovr5003]

Best idea ever! I wish my teachers did this.

[@Priyanka-xd2pj]

I'm so excited for this because I just found out we are doing Don Quixote for our spring show :)))

[@folkmoreswiftie]

Good luck! 😋

[@kathryn_morgan]

How fun!

[@brendaannedufaur6244]

Kathryn is so successful because she is so respectful of her subscribers. She is looking slender and beautiful.

[@Charlotte-sf4gb]

I love this idea, I‘d appreciate more beginner versions. Thank you so much for doing these barre classes to do at home!!

[@kathryn_morgan]

Will definitely do beginner versions for sure!

[@davidg858]

My wife and I struggled to keep up with this but as you say no growth is possible without effort and risk. I would call it a work of art!

[@dlourdes4743]

How romantic husband and wife dancing together!

[@fernandaabud8491]

Hi Kathryn! I wanted to thank you for taking your time doing these videos. You have no idea how much I have improved these past months. My technique is improving everyday!! You inspire me

[@kathryn_morgan]

This makes me so happy! Thank you so much!

[@mojcagal8364]

Oh I love it, thank you!! So wonderful to be inspired to dance and be expressive at the barre instead of just focusing on bare technique (what I usually end up doing). So much looking forward to themed barres, such a great idea!

[@kathryn_morgan]

Thank you!

[@esstown]

This is a wonderful barre! Really looking forward to the "no intros" version, to do it straight through for artistry and stamina. Thank you so very much for doing this!

[@dlourdes4743]

Ms Kathryn has opened now Baller Pandora Box...by sharing things with us...we never knew the secrets steps that makes ballet do enchanting and mysteriously beautiful form of art...

[@Poppy-]

It's between a variation and a barre! This will be a real challenge, but keep them coming. I just slow the pace to 0.7 when I don't get it until I get better.

[@Hellbender8574]

This is a magnificent class, and a terrific idea for a series. I think themed barre (and center?!) classes will help us with our artistry, and mastering those character port-de-bras. Thank you for creating this.

[@laceymcintyre6895]

this barre killed me in the best way! Thank you for this barre class!

[@painterdawn2]

My goodness what a terrific barre! It was tremendous fun and such a challenge. Can't wait to do it again tomorrow. Thank you Katie!

[@jamiecapdevillasantiago]

I love this themed-barres idea, and yay for Don Q!!! Thanks Kathryn!

[@yiweitang8070]

Respect to another jaw-droppingly beautiful video of how to do center work but at the barre. You have noo idea how much I appreciate a DQ barre!!!!!!

[@daniellebraasch9581]

Yea!!! Sounds so fun! Thanks! Hope you are having a great day!

[@sveridayou910]

Love Douglas Schultz’s music!

[@taras7075]

Thank you, K! I was looking for barre to do while I’m traveling for work. Can’t wait 👏🏻

[@LethalgasRipper]

WAY more exciting than normal barres!

[@erin5687]

this was so challenging and really helped me with my port de bras! Thank you!

[@ec3484]

Thanks a million! I love itttt!! Can't wait for a don q center theme!! 🙏🙏🙏🎉🎉🎉💃💃💃

[@petrahutzen9412]

Amazing idea and lovely music. I look foward to do it with my twinsister this week. Take care, Kathryn! Warmest regards from Germany

[@kathryn_morgan]

Love to you both!

[@mariat.7599]

What an inspiring class! Ah, the joy of dancing!

[@theoluoma3087]

I LOVE these intermediate classes because I don't have access to a studio right now, but I'm finding it really difficult to accomodate soutenu transitions in my at-home setup. Having an option for at-home dancers to have a bit more time to move the barre to left would make it SO much easier to keep these in my repeat list. Love what you do and thank you for your passion 💜

[@nataschacharliecamen]

Thank you very much for another great barre........the music is so nice and strong, it takes me trough with pleasure!!!!!!!!!

[@francescajohnson7635]

Thank you Kathryn. Another great bar. So glad I got to tackle this one. Love the themed bars.

[@morangotango13]

I haven't smiled so much with a class in a while! This was so fun. I'm an adult in my 4th year of learning ballet and I am very proud I can mostly do this! As a Spanish person, I also have a bit of love for Don Quixote :D

[@majakowalik2091]

Aaaaaah, what an amazing idea 😍😍😍

[@beatrizortega3607]

I am loving these theme barres. Thank you so much 🙏

[@Kderezzed]

This was SO HARD, but so beautiful and fun, more like these please!!!! YOU ROCK!

[@gregorykollarus8190]

I love your classes so much. I’m getting back into ballet in my kitchen and living room and this is just so important to me thank you so much

[@mariholser3358]

I fell in love with this Don Q Barre. Except for the Class nights, I do practice with this almost every day at home now, thank you Kathryn, this is amazing :)

[@lucavanderleeden3910]

Oooh I'm soooo excited to try this. Please please please do more themed barres or work outs. This is so much fun! Thank you so much!

[@ondiraitdelamagie520]

I was just going stir-crazy. But after two of your pointe shoe classes and this wonderful class (love the arms) I feel better and grounded again. Thank you so, so much for being there and doing such a great job!

[@QuantumSkool]

I love your ballet barre classes Kathie. Thanks for sharing!!!

[@gynevre13]

Love it!!!! Thousands of "thank-yous"

[@xochilguevara3429]

Love the “themes” idea, so fun! Looking forward to more.

[@odonus1]

bravo quelle belle idée de proposer une barre sur une musique aussi jolie ! J'attends avec impatience une autre barre sur la musique d'un autre ballet

[@mmn958]

Such a great idea! I'd love to see a Giselle one too!

[@elisemarie5140]

Really good class, thanks! I've improved so much since I started "barre with no barre" and using your videos. You have such clarity and precision in your movement, I can see exactly what you're doing, and I feel like a better dancer just following you. You've been a real godsend through this pandemic!

[@courtneybeery1028]

I was suddenly inspired to take class late tonight, and honestly this was so fun yet challenging to do. Exactly what I needed🤗❤

[@sweetpotatogreens7491]

good challenge! will definitely be back more times to try and master this one!

[@122drozariosian7]

Loved the idea of a themed variation class .......made it so interesting and fun while being challenged at another level altogether. Thank you ❤️

[@naturewaysyoga4496]

Don't mind me watching an entire advanced ballet class when I'm not even a dancer... :D

[@ruthspitzlei1167]

What a great idea! Thanks Kathryn ❤️

[@kristiLB93]

Oh Yay! So pretty! Great idea. 💃♥️

[@xuelinghuang385]

I really love the video. Fantastic ideas. It is really challenging and that is the reason why I have made so much progress.

[@danceradina2439]

Thank you! This was great, I really felt like I was in class with you. As a teacher of Beginners I often get so focused on the technique alone, and as I've been recovering from various injuries its been hard to remember as well, but this was such a great opportunity to explore my artistry a little bit!

[@imanbell]

What a great idea to do themed ballet barres!!! Can't wait to try this one, thanks Katie!

[@julia.carino]

Themed barres😍😍 this might be too advanced for me, but I’m definitely going to try!!

[@angelsapphire6088]

Same, if I can get a better grip on the basic barre - I am definitely going to be trying this one out :)

[@wenkachan6180]

I'm definitely trying this out!! Even though I'm a beginner

[@sylviekarow3828]

What a great idea! Can't wait for a Swanlake-themed barre 😊

[@ingridholzer-miller799]

Thoroughly enjoy this barre!! Thank you thank you thank you! You are the best

[@viv2607]

this was so fun and so challenging! im a young dancer and i loved it

[@alicerpz3468]

Ah this was really fun! Thank you for making these videos!

[@angelweck616]

The hardest barre I’ve done this quarantine but had a blast doing it!! Thank you so much!! 🥵😅💪🏼

[@judithglasser3072]

This is so lovely and creative, it gives a different vibe and it's so elegant!

[@Natalena4]

Just looking at this, I am winded! But also super excited to do this fun barre! Thank you :)

[@alexvictoria84]

I love this idea - I'm looking forward to if/when you do another one!!

[@racheldompierre107]

Wonderful, Thank you Kathryn!

[@liljakangassalo8845]

Loved this class, Katie! Thank you for sharing!

[@cece121234]

I saw your FB story yesterday and I'm a bit nervous to try this difficult barre. But very excited for this and more themed barres. More musicals!

[@122drozariosian7]

I just keep wondering how do you manage to explain combinations and do them at the same time. I'm literally breathless 🙈

[@a.g.4296]

So beautiful and challenging!! Love it thank you! ❤️

[@starmelodyelizabethb7380]

This is totally exciting. I love the idea also perfect for artistry

[@romyreckers]

I loved this, the sweat is all over my body : ) thank you so so much, and I love the themed barre idea!! it's so nice how you keep challenging yourself to come up with new ways to share your knowledge, and with that how you keep challenging us to push past walls like you said. Really needed this, thanks again

[@serenang3137]

Can't wait to try this soon😍😍Don Q is one of my most favourite ballets!

[@erenelagge7867]

Κathryn this is a marvellous ckass workout!! If you want make more of them !From the best thank ypu very very much!!❤️❤️❤️💐💐💐🌟

[@eliseswora5736]

Merci beaucoup Kathryn pour cette superbe barre!!! J'adore ce ballet. Thank you so much Kathryn for this great barre!!! I love this ballet!!

[@chloesouls9651]

Hi Kathryn, I am currently new to ballet so I have been doing your videos. They are so amazing and I love doing them! I was wondering if you could do a bit more beginer classes, as I have done them all. So alternativley I tried the intermediate, it was a bit challenging but still very fun to do. Thankyou for what you are doing ❤️

[@juliette3597]

I also used to due this with my classes occasionally. Swan Lake was a big winner - I'm sure you're going to do a crazy good one of those!

[@sallypalermo9600]

Omg I can’t wait to take this class!! You look so good Katie!

[@estherhadassa1061]

Awesome routine! Last part makes me crave some Swiss cheese fondue(e) and have a frappe for dessert.

[@Cijam-i]

I love love love this❤❤❤ Thank-you!!!

[@moonlightsonatina4154]

We love you too, Ms Morgan!

[@shikelang666]

[@isabellagodinho8910]

[@MaggieHasper]

Yesss!!! About about to start ( this) class and I already know I’m gonna love it 🩰 💃🏼

[@dariask904]

Loved it so much!! I was faaaar from great, but so much to aim at to make my movements better :) Thank you for pushing us on! x

[@dangkodoes7429]

Doing this class now... thank you!

[@valdanalimavidal7398]

Amazing idea!!! Those barres help soo much

[@whatdoyousuppose]

This is so great! I’m excited to try this one! I’d love to see some for the Tchaikovsky ballets as well 😍😍😍

[@rachelfenwick3260]

I really loved! It was challenging and interesting and lovely. Thank you

[@clarajolly]

This was so uplifting and a great barre, thank you so much ! Loved to think of a theme and characters, loved it :)

[@renettamikkonen7081]

Love this idea!💗

[@victoriarodriguez4596]

Beautiful idea🥰

[@emilliavalerieva1611]

BEAUTIFUL!

I didn't know I needed this but Imma go change and do that barre🤩🤩😍😍

[@SharkQu33n]

I can’t wait to try this!

[@whatirlymingg]

I love this!! Build up a good sweat and enjoyed the music and flares hehe ✨💯

[@francessmith40]

Awesome, so much looking forward to doing it. Just found out I'm in contact with a covid positive student, so guess who's going to quaratine barres

[@kathryn_morgan]

Oh I’m so sorry! Much love!

[@francessmith40]

Thank you so much! Love back to you and Chris!!

[@jessieborrell1856]

What a great idea!

[@ajesver185]

Just what I needed!! Your videos have been helping be survive quarantine, thank you so much!

[@kathryn_morgan]

My pleasure!

[@olivia_rcr]

yesyesyesyesyes love Don Q! (Also, I’m doing my favorite paquita variation for our spring show! so stoked)

[@starsupontheland]

Oh this is adorable, I love it.

[@chloeyoung3911]

this is so fun!! would love a romeo and juliet theme as well!

[@JessicabelliciMa1]

this was definitely hard but its been a while like since 2017 that I do your ballet class and I do improve. not fast as I want but I am a better dancer because of your educational ballet video. I do it one video before to go to work and one after my work shift.

[@LinaSingers]

I had to rewind so dang often and still messed up on most combinations, this really is the hardest barre we've had up until this point 😅

[@robinsmum]

Same here! :)

[@itsabicot9129]

Saaaame. I like to find a barre that's somewhat difficult for me and then do it everyday (or almost everyday) until I perfect it and I think it will take me a loooong time to perfect this one hahaha. But it's so much fun and I love the challenge

[@dlourdes4743]

I hear you...I too studied ballet for many years no one teaches classes as she does no one even come close...I too have to rewind and a few classes I have to reset the speed cause some steps combinations are complex
