Adding to everything you said (all of which I wholeheartedly agree with) being able to go “showtime!” And just switch on and sell it no matter how crappy or unprepared you feel - that really helps in life. I don’t perform professionally but I perform a lot nonetheless in many genres. I also have a corporate job where I have to meet with very scary and intimidating people. The kind of concentration and show must go on and sell it even if you don’t feel it attitude has helped me in job interviews and very important meetings. As someone who is not that naturally confident and tends to overthink everything, that on/off switch I attained through my decades of performance is something that I think ONLY performing arts can teach you.

Omg anyone who is a supportive “lady at the front desk” thank you so much!!! So many of them in so many settings. I don’t know what I would do without them 😭 Even as an adult but especially when I was as a child

Our ballet teacher taught us this, if the teacher says to do this, you gotta do it no matter what. 😅

I looked at a class without corrections as a class I failed. It seemed to me if the teacher corrected me, he thought I had the ability to do better; if he didn't correct mistakes, I thought it meant he thought I couldn't improve.

I'm an adult beginner to dance and the first thing it taught me was how out of shape I was. Holy crap my body is so sore and I feel so tired. I also feel like if I had any level of ego it would teach me humility because EVERYTHING IS HARD! Entirely worth it though. I always feel great after a class.

To Jordan’s lesson - how about “esprit de corps”? A feeling of belonging to a group, working as a group, being loyal to that group, and being proud of being part of that group.

I dance in a more recreational, less strict and smaller studio, and perhaps the most important thing for me is understanding that even if some steps may seem simple or boring, I can always challenge myself and focus on various aspects of my technique to improve it even more. Btw I love your videos ❤

What has your ballet journey taught you? We’d love to chat about it! As always, thanks so much for watching, we love and appreciate you guys! ❤❤

I just want to applaud you both for your beautiful, feminine yet modest fashion and style. Im always thinking how I want to find the shirts and blouses y'all have on

This was something I've never thought about and have never seen discussed. So interesting, and it makes sense. Ballet has probably lost promising dancers who couldn't or wouldn't adapt to the mental demands/requirements.

I don't generally "like" videos, but for a "most embarrassing ballet moments" video... yup!

Oh, yes, the body's boundaries! Like Jordan, I also used to push myself to and past injuries. Yep, a very dangerous strategy and one that more teachers and directors should caution against.

1,000 is creeping up on you!!! How about those stories! 💕

Have a great day gals 💗

I hope you guys do an episode about Dance Academy!! That show wrecked me but also got me interested in Ballet.

I love how wholesome and supporting your videos are, particularly since there are a ton of stereotypes about ballet that portray it as being more toxic. And I feel like everything you mention here is applicable to so many areas in life, regardless of what it is. I'd love to see you doing a collab with @ThePointeShop and be able to reach even more people.

I haven't danced ballet since I was a little girl, but your commentary is great. You guys are fun to watch. I will admit, I subscribed mainly to get you to 1K so you can get monetized! May the algorithm be ever in your favor.

Hi! Sorry to comment this in a non reaction video, but a Ballet themed anime released in 2022 called "Dance Dance Danseur" which you might find interesting to react to (at least to the dancing portrayed). The anime is about a young boy called Junpei who has to attend a ballet performance (which he finds very dull), but immediately is drawn to the display of emotion and artistry. After the death of his father, he decides to do something more "masculine" thus straying away from ballet. His passion, however, is reignited at age 14 after watching two classmates dancing.

Brilliant ❤

So non ballet related,but loving what you do is so so so important! Spent 6 years in a job that I hated so bad! But then once I found my calling all the things you two spoke about in this vid resonated with me, and i could totally relate to everything you guys said! Keep up the good work ladies

Great content! Vibe is great! I love hearing about ballet history and I would love to hear y’all opinions about other professional ballerinas, like Joy Womack and others perhaps. 😊

You girls are hilarious!!! Def worth the sub
