Valentine's Day Ballet Class | Intermediate Level | Strength, Technique, & Lines | Kathryn Morgan

[@kathryn_morgan]

If you commented while the video was on premiere yesterday, those disappeared! I put it on premiere so you all knew it was coming, but then turned that off last night. With Premiere, you have to watch the WHOLE video live before you can jump around. I wanted you to be able to skip forward to preview the class if you wanted to! So switching it off premiere deleted those comments. Sorry about that! xoxo

Dearest Kathryn, I just wanted to let you know that I was recently diagnosed with ovarian cancer, and your ballet barres are one of the things that are getting me through each day. When I do them, I have room for nothing in my mind but ballet, and that is such a treasure. Thank you for making a real daily difference in my life. xox

[@kathryn_morgan]

Thank you so much for sharing that with me Jennifer. I am truly touched. You are amazing. Sending you SO much love!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@jfsteilauthor]

@@kathryn_morgan My day is made. You are one of my heroes. Dance forever. xoxox

[@rita6276]

I hope you’re okay!!

[@ElizabethHeath-u4e]

Same here. My grandma had cancer, but survived, thank the good lord heh heh😅

[@Mel-xz8dc]

I'm really happy you are still making new classes! Especially having a center is so great :D I hope you keep filming more 💕💕

[@Julia-rn1ib]

I really enjoyed this class. The best alternative if you are tired from work, can't join class in the evening. Doing this instead really helped.

[@kathryn_morgan]

Thank you!

[@MolissaSmithy]

Thank you for adding a little center to this class! And for being aware that we are dancing at home and have minimal space. Great class!

[@jessaglenny]

Very helpful having you show centre with your back to us, as it would be in class.

[@bodysoulutions]

ur vids getting me back, thx much! 🤸‍♀

[@daniellebraasch5926]

Happy Valentine's Day!! I hope you have a wonderful day! Thank you for the class.

[@lindsaybonn7526]

Loved having a little bit of center at the end as I'm building stamina towards doing a full barre and center!

[@dancegallerie]

So excited to try this one !

[@jfsteilauthor]

Every time you post a new video it feels like Christmas Day... such a gift. Thank you.

[@joannaconnolly]

Woke up today and was craving a ballet class from Kathryn Morgan, and lo and behold she puts a brand spanking new Valentine’s themed class. Just finished and ABSOLUTELY LOVED it-it kicked my butt. Thank you!! (I’m for ANY Broadway-themed barres/classes…loved the Wicked one!)

[@kathryn_morgan]

Yay! So happy Joanna!!!

[@Turdysevenmofos]

the center practice!!! literally helped me so much i’m finally able to do a pirouette!! every time i come into ballet class they wonder how i improve so fast, they don’t realize i practice your videos every day💗💗💗

[@pointelover1019]

Thank you so much for this amazing class!!! I stopped dancing years ago but I do your classes because I miss it so much!! Thank you for giving me the resources to keep my passion going!!

[@CowboyBebop444]

Awesomeness

[@Dances_in_the_kitchen]

Oooohh, this one is going to kick my butt 😅 But I’ll do my homework and in the end I bet my ballet teacher will be surprised about my progress 😁😎 Thanks Katie, these YT classes are so very helpful 💋💝🙏

[@kathryn_morgan]

Thank you! And my pleasure!

[@ellensusman4637]

I just love you Kathryn Morgan! I'm 56 years old and an intermediate dancer and I appreciate all of your classes to help me get in shape between my studio classes. You are so encouraging, clear, and beautiful! Thank you!

[@mylittlelab22]

thank uuuuuuuu💋💝🙏for being always kind to us

[@idavonehrenheim2809]

I really enjoyed this class, especially the adagio which was so beautiful and possible to do at home in cramped space ^^ Thank you for these classes which makes it possible for me to practice at home

[@Ariel_Fernandes.]

This class was amazing and challenging! Thank you for providing us with these stunning, themed, FREE classes. All the way from South Africa

[@maylaantonio]

Happy hearts day to KM and all dancers here =)

[@lwoods1940]

Thank you for another fantastic barre.

[@kathryn_morgan]

My pleasure!

[@rita6276]

Thank you so much Kathryn, I love doing your classes! Sending love 💕

[@doinacubicec4025]

Great class!! I Loved having the bar and Center together!!

[@bonniehawkins2979]

Lovely.

[@giannaformicone7395]

thanks a lot Kathryn, would you mind inserting the blocks for each exercise? in order to spring to the explication or exercise with music? thanks!!!

[@snabeyratne]

Excellent tute. Really enjoyed this. So much technique involved. Bravo KM.

[@ballettinriem9994]

Survived so far, very happy doing this class at 52! Thank you!

[@hayley4514]

Thank you thank you! What a great class. I haven't danced properly in 7 years! This was a perfect class for me in my living room

[@hayley4514]

I hope you film more too!

[@sarah1980111]

Wonderful barre! I like how you repeat the combo when it’s appropriate for endurance. I also love how you have tailored the center for those of us at home so the combos are somewhat stationary and we aren’t kicking the dog or the kids or the furniture. Lol. Thank you so much for this!

[@hannabergmann8831]

Again, thank you

[@nathalie7503]

Merci beaucoup pour ce nouveau cours complet, barre et milieu. Je vais l'essayer demain J'adore votre bonne humeur Thank you very much from France

[@stacnkev88]

Excellent, love that all your combinations are good tempo and focus on clean basic steps so as to try and work placement and technique. There is a place for speed and crazy, but see too many classes (not yours) doing radical and students just learn bad habits. Thank you!!

[@kathryn_morgan]

Thank you so much! And I agree. I try not to ever go CRAZY fast because it just makes you grip! So thank you. ❤️

[@cece121234]

This is so beautiful! I'm in love with this barre...

[@kathryn_morgan]

Thank you!

[@kellyhandler8316]

Kathryn this is so wonderful. Love it ❤️

[@paulahidalgo4417]

Te amooooo Kathryn

[@violet8476]

I'm soooo excited for that one 🥰🥰🥰🥰can't wait ❤❤❤💗💗🩰🩰happy valentine 💝❤

[@kathryn_morgan]

Thank you Violet!

[@theoluoma3087]

LOVE having the mini center, so wonderful to have! And THANK YOU for showing turned around, I had given up on video center classes because so many teach it facing but it's so difficult to translate the changes that way, so this was so welcome and I feel amazing having done a center I didn't leave absolutely frustrated because of this 💜 I'm sure there are many others like me with no access to a studio right now who are loving these classes.

[@user-jj5mm9pi5s]

This class was beautiful thank you

[@alicerpz3468]

Thank you for this and all of your videos!

[@Hellbender8574]

Thank you for creating this Barre plus bonus center exercises! Thank you for helping keep my heart healthy and happy. 💚

[@esterfleurke9309]

[@lintica380]

thank you for your online classes! i absolutely loooove them!!! happy valentine's day:)

[@lydiapnevmaticou3857]

Dear Kathryn, what a wonderful class, great flow of movement, great music! Thank you! 🇬🇷

[@anastasialenkova-molchalin5874]

This is the favourite class I have ever done! Your classes are amazing! Will you please make Sleeping Beauty or Giselle class? Thank you!

[@kathryn_morgan]

I’m so glad! I will add it to the list!

[@brett9595]

One of my favorite classes so far! Thanks Kathryn

[@rfagler]

Great class!! Loved having a center after the barre. Thank you! (From your 6:00 AM, 60-year old dancer in the kitchen.)

[@mariapapira]

Thank you so much for this lovely class, Kathryn. What a wonderful and romantic idea! 💝

[@MissJaime]

I really love the combination of the barre and centre class in one video ⭐️ Keep at making these fantastic videos they are so helpful!

[@Audrey-vf6ic]

Amazing classss 🎉🎉 😊

[@sofasjava6805]

Thank you for this beautifull class. I love how you added the center on the same video! Greetings from Germany :)

[@nomdeplume5032]

Yes! More classes! And with a center.... Katie, will you be my valentine? 😍💗

[@camilapihn8654]

I started my morning saturday with this class and feels awesome!! I enjoyed it soo much! Thanks Miss Kath once again for your beautiful classes, i loved every minute of it! Lots of love all the way from Argentina!

[@jeannevautrot2556]

j'aime tellement vos vidéos ! le son est parfait, le cadrage aussi ! les exercices adaptables quand on est chez soi

[@Gailtoday]

Thank you for this excellent class. Amazing!

[@mariat.7599]

Thank you! The music was also wonderful. The Valse Triste by Sibelius at the end was a treat (I'm a Finn ;))

[@siyuancarter-patkau9260]

I had to stop dancing for a while after being diagnosed with a chronic illness, but my doctor just approved me to start again as long as I keep my range of motion extremely limited and I'm SO excited to do this once I've built back up a bit. !! And I love that raspberry colour on you.

[@ericahaag7230]

I love your classes❤

[@naomireineke3151]

As always thanks for the fun workout! I'm sore from dance this week but knew I needed to keep moving and this was a great way to do that.

[@Nan01040]

i feel so good after ur classes ❤️❤️ thank you plenty Kathryn and Happy Valentine's day to you ❤️

[@CorinnePina]

Thank you so much for this amazing class. This will be challenging as I’m a beginner , but I enjoy all your classes and hope to join you online soon. As I am right now in Switzerland , it’s hard with the time difference. 😢, but you are an amazing teacher and I enjoy your classes a lot! 🩰😍❤️🩰

[@kathryn_morgan]

Thank you so much!

[@mariapapira]

I’m a beginner from Switzerland, too! 🩰 I agree, the time difference is complicated, but it’s worth it. Kathryn is such a wonderfull teacher. 💝

[@CorinnePina]

@@mariapapira I will try to join. The beginner class is on Thursday though, and I usually have another obligation. I don’t think I can do the intermediary /advanced yet, but would definitely lloye to try her online -live classes.

[@ちゃんのん-q5o]

Arigato-gozaimasu from Osaka, Japan👏👏👏　Looking forward to the next whenever taking your ballet lessons through KZbin. Happy Valentine's Day💗💖💞

[@kassandra0]

I loved it! I love all of your barres, I feel like I improve so much doing them, and the themes and extra fun little things are amazing! Thank you so much!! ♥️

[@valentinetoussaint4990]

This is great! Thanks so much for these classes they're very helpful and fun too! xoxo Happy Valentine's day

[@ellierosedance]

This looks like so much fun!!

[@stacyspurlin266]

Loved this thank you!!

[@Anajulia-nx6nd]

Yeahhh! I Love your classes so much💖🤧 Thanks kathy

[@haleynicolewright]

Though, I am a beginner I am looking forward to this class! I would almost say I am an advance beginner. Looking forward to checking this class out! 😁

[@Mackenziee1294]

Frozen 1&2 by Nate Fifield! 🙏🏻 Also, loved this class!! ❤️

[@afronativebarbie]

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!

[@Bellahw]

Thank you 🙏🏻 💕 continual inspiration to keep practicing

[@AnatDayag]

wonderful class!

[@galinayepanchina6443]

This is the most wonderful ballet class you've made so far! Will you please make a Sleeping Beauty one? Thank you!

[@mirandaseitz-mcleese3108]

I spent so much of this class being like "oh my god I *can* do that...I didn't think I could do that!" Was it perfect no, but I'm so much stronger/coordinated/capable than I thought I was. (And you're totally right this felt a lot easier than some of the beginner classes. More brain work less muscle work.

[@natalies9602]

Love the outfit❤(as always)

[@mariajoaosalomao3069]

I love your classes! Thank you so much🥰🥰

[@KBol-st3nd]

really nice for my small space at home------just 2 by 2 meters and I am 1.78 meter tall hihihihi so this great.....

[@maatkaramaatkara5170]

I party everytime I reach the end! :D

[@angelsapphire6088]

Loving these barres with center in them. I am starting to try to do more center instead of just only barre, so this is great! :) (P.S. mainly hard to do center because I feel like a flapping penguin there versus feeling slightly like a swan at barre 😂)

[@ainsley.cotton.05]

Same! I’m very good at barre and it sets a great tone for class, and then center makes me want to cry sometimes…

[@anastasialenkova-molchalin5874]

Try letting go sometimes at barre, and try not to put weight on it. Also try building strength and balance, as you need those for the centre.

[@marycapossela2090]

That is the best analogy I have ever heard

[@monica_habit1038]

Your 'Port de bras' is so beautiful 😍

[@eduardaryan13]

thanks for this class, I'm in a moment that I have no time to do ballet classes in schools, so I'm training with your videos, they are helping me a lot. 😊

[@emiliaadamo1261]

This is absolutely amazing. Thank you 💖💖

[@mirandaseitz-mcleese3108]

AAAAAAAH OH MY GOD I'm in the middle of this video but I am not sure I've ever gotten double frappes before and stayed even in the same neighborhood as the music! I've always singled them thinking I couldn't but I guess I can?

[@ElizabethHeath-u4e]

I was really confused when you were doing 14:07 I was just like “I am so confused” lol😅. I was also doing on pointe because I wanted a bit of a challenge 😊

[@sorry9720]

Your leotard looks so good which brand is it? The Ballett class is really good for me. Thank you.:)

[@samanthakrieg6710]

A Taylor swift themed barre would be so much fun!!💕💕

[@hornbill9204]

Won't it be lovely if you could bring us a lesson with slight dash of yellow or orange as the summer is about to arrive in the northern hemisphere!🌻🌞☀🧡

[@serenasalme4265]

Weeeen🤗🌸❤ cant wait!😃🌺

[@sabrinaboudraa9791]

Thank you so much for this new barre ! I had a wonderful moment again ! And when a Valentine's day barre for advanced or on pointe ? :)

[@Connor-RK-lh7be]

ong im so excited

[@emmamcneely5137]

I love this barre and center class! It's the perfect level for me! I would love more classes in the intermediate range, especially for center. Would you consider doing some center classes specifically to help with petite allegro and grand allegro in small spaces? I find these are the trickiest aspects of ballet to practice when I can't go to classes every week.

[@galinapopov909]

Katie what is opposite to pas de cheval? Please, give me an answer, if you have a little time. I highly appreciate your talent, your drive and energy, your high professionalism, your theoretical knowledge and practical Amazing ballet skills.

[@danapolonsky7685]

Did this today while my "real" dancer girl looked on in horror. Kicked my butt, sweat pouring out. Great workout. Thankful for the rewind button :)

[@taravolna6192]

my class got cancelled this week and I wanted to do something at home to ... just do something I guess. Anyway this was amazing!!!!! Thank you so much! this was the first class of yours that I did but definitely not last

[@bodysoulutions]

full beginner classes please ?

[@doranicotra6279]

❤❤

[@logiclanguagelearningFrench]

I adore these classes. Black swan was my favourite themed one. I meant to mention. My friend who had a similar health trajectory to you is finding ashwagandha life changing Kathryn. You look amazing already but please check it out x
