My favourite basic ballet class on KZfaq! Thank you so much for that, I always come back to it ❤️

You are making my heart sing with this lesson ❤❤❤ Thank you so much. I begged my parents to let me dance ballet as a child. First they told me we were too poor. Then they told me I was too fat / built like a baby elephant / wouldn’t be any good / it would be a waste of money. I was made to work from around 10. I saved my money and at 13 I paid for 6 weeks of ballet tuition myself at a school I found by myself. I bought my shoes and my leotard and tights. I was so happy. Then I went to class and my choice was go with the young kids or those my own age. I went with those my age but couldn’t keep up. I felt worthless but I kept trying because I wanted to learn. But after I would walk home after class (in winter, ice, and around two miles), my dad and sister would make fun of me so much I would just cry. After I finished my six weeks I gave up. I tried again years later as an adult, at 26? went to one adult class then lost my job and couldn’t go again. I tried again at 33 - got to the class and had a panic attack. All I could hear was the venomous words of my mother in my ear and my father mocking me. I literally ran out of the building and never went back. I realised that this is my biggest dream. It always was and still is. To learn to dance. And one day dance on a stage for an audience. Even if just one time. I refuse to believe at 35 it’s too late. It’s not. I’ve been limiting myself my whole life because of my parents poison. Not any more. As soon as I realised this, I looked on KZfaq and your video came up first. Your grace reminds me of Olivia Newton John when she used to introduce the Timeless Tales videos I watched as a child. From the bottom of my heart, than you for sharing your knowledge and videos on this free platform. I am so so grateful 😢. You are helping me take first steps towards realising my dream and stepping out of a lifetime of fear conditioning. I want you to know how much this video means to me ❤

I'm quite late to this class, seeing as it was posted 2 years ago, but I just took it and I LOVED it! I love the music you choose and the musicality you encourage throughout each exercise. This is oerfect for me because I want to go slower in order to concentrate on correcting lifelong bad habits, poor training etc etc. So, thank you!

Thank you so much for putting this together into one video! It's the perfect daily workout. I am not the most graceful and have to practice in my bathroom bc everywhere else is carpeted, but it's nevertheless so enjoyable. I'm very excited and have to share: my gran plies are now twice as low as when I first started a couple months ago, when they were basically the same as the half plies 😅 At 51, that's no small feat, so thank you thank you for the amazing content and for being such an inspiring teacher!

OMG, I swear your classes are unique. Thanks for another great lesson 😁

You are so beautiful and graceful. Your port de bras arms embrace so much emotion. I have never been taught swan arms and your demonstration is so moving. As a middle age woman (myself) who is now retired I still appreciate the wonder and beauty of ballet. Thank you for your simple and instructional videos!

my favorite

I love your work: I joined the online classes im going to be frank here and say im a trans person and I found that not only does it give me great workout but I feel like im improving my posture poise and confidence in being myself. anyways the warmest regards and wishes to you all.

I love love love this class 😍😍🌺 so amazing.. I always admire your absolute gorgeous talent for teaching 😍 and your metaphors are so on point! A rose petal between the fingers.. Sunlight on your chest, the raindrop on my arm during second position are just a few of them but they help absolute beginners like me so so much 😍 have a wonderful day and lots of love from Germany 🥳🍀

Would like to start this as looking for a new challenge and something different but quite overwhelmed with all the moves/information in ballet. Also a little OCD so i like to make sure i do everything correctly. I'm male and come from a soccer/running/cycling background so would this be suitable for me to start?

Magnífica !!!

I love your skirt, the back and white one, where did you get it from?

Hi

Hi good day to you. I'd like enquiry your classic class, there will be how many classes in total to be completed ballet training. Is this classic class trainning under time schedule that you set or just you will send me videos? I am from Malaysia, can I know you are base on which country. I learnt ballet when I was 14years and was only joined in a year adult ballet class. I always would like to returning to ballet and wanna to know it takes how many years under training classes and qualify to apply a test become a ballet teacher?

😘

Are kids also allowed to join the ballet class ??

Again
