no because the end has got me crying- you did so well and you looked absolutely a m a z i n g! you did wonderful and I'm so glad you re-discovered your love for ballet!! happy holidays

I had such a similar relationship with ballet. Didn't pursue dancing with a company because it ruined my mental health. But teaching ballet and taking class just for myself but not to please anyone else has reignited that joy and love that I've always had. Thank you for sharing this journey. It will inspire the next generation to be happier and healthier dancers.

omg girl got me crying over THE TURN on the final show, THAT WAS PERFECTION! so bloody proud of you

So happy you found your passion again! Love love love these videos

I used to be a ballerina and watching this just made me so nostalgic I can still smell the air in those theatre dressing rooms and the magical energy before the first show and AAAHHH LUNA I'm so happy for you that you're back on stage!!!

In all my years enjoying your Vlogs, this was by far the most beautiful and captivating Vlog you have ever done. It was so engaging and interesting displaying your incredible dancing and presenting your passionate personality for ballet and life. This was more than a Vlog, it was ART in its totality. The world needs you!

I feel that depression, down feeling at the end of christmas too. like its just so much of a build up and the presents and gifting and I love doing it and the anticipation and then the evening comes and its a little sad. But Luna you looked beautiful and danced so well. Congratulations!

luna, i'm so so so beyond happy for you. seeing you on stage brought tears to my eyes. your self expression in any way is beautiful and i truly believe that you are the embodiment of your character. i love this for you, sending love! you inspire us TONS, so proud.

I was a competitive figure skater my entire life & your relationship w/ ballet feels super relatable to me. I'm so happy you were able to dance again on your own terms & redefine your relationship with performing

I’m so glad that you’re happy being back on stage with a healthy relationship with ballet. It’s so good to see you this happy and grateful, you were absolutely beautiful!

I quit ballet three years because I also had a really negative relationship with it but after watching your videos you have really inspired me to try it again because I do really miss it and I am very exited to start classes again! :)

LUNA!!! I am so proud of you and so inspired. You really made my Christmas Eve so magical with this video. I am touched and so motivated to pursue my dreams too. Have a lovely Christmas!! We love you!! You are a gift to this world.

OH MY GOD THATS THE THEATRE WHERE I DID MY BALLET PERFORMANCES AS A KID!!!!! Seeing u walk up that walkway was so nostalgic

Wow Luna!! I usually don't comment on videos but this was so impactful for me. I have been watching you for years and to see you on that stage had me ready to buy a plane ticket for ur next performance!!!! Dancing is truly your gift and to be able to clearly tell a story to thousands of people without having to even speak is so impactful. And then for you to come on this channel to actually talk about and share your journey in both the dance industry and KZfaq industry for as long as you have is so powerful!!!! The amount of people you have reached and helped and just put a smile on people's faces is amazing! Don't ever give up, and ill be looking for you in the next nutcracker girl😉 just beautiful

you are such an amazing dancer and person, congrats because this show was incredible

Congratulations! also, totally related to your crying watching Tiler and the Nutcracker and general... for those of us who grew up dancing it year after year, it always pulls at the heartstrings. How amazing you got to dance again this year and so beautifully!

Arabian princess is literally my dream role and you performed and embodied it so well :) lly

this made me so emotional oh my goodness! I am an ex ballerina and for so long I've looked back on ballet negatively but its easy to forget the magic and loveliness of nutcracker season and the rewarding bitter sweet feeling of performing and completing a show. Nothing beats it. It was sweet to be able to relive it a little through this video. thank you. happy holidays

Ahh you were so so beautiful Luna! Really appreciate how you always keep it real with us and are so open about your mental health. I loved the ending montage and I’m so happy you are have found your love and passion for ballet again. You’re the best! ❤️

I couldn’t be happier that you vlogged every single part of this process, these vlogs are so special and magical coming from and dancer who adores the stage and does pointe and ballet and everything but who’s studio never did a nutcracker

Your performance was outstanding! I have a short attention span but my eyes were locked on you the whole time. You should be really proud of yourself especially knowing how much effort you put into it. I hope everything will turn out just fine for you because you really deserve to be happy. Keep doing the great work!

I absolutely love these videos where you vlog when you're performing in the theatre. I'm a dancer myself, but due to my chronic illness, I haven't been able to take classes and perform for almost 3 years. So seeing this feels like I'm pretty much there. Feeling all the emotions that come with performing on stage as a dancer. I love it. Thank you for bringing everyone along yet again. Happy New Year

I randomly found this channel and it's so nostalgic of when I did ballet when I was younger, it gives me a true appreciation for people who stuck with it through their early 20s because you see just how hard you have to work and how beautiful the outcome can be. Wish I stuck with it but just wanted to say I absolutely loved this vlog and gave me goosebumps to hear the nutcracker music again

finally! ive been watching your old ones from years ago and i love seeing you re-doing these now!! you have such a glowing aura and seem so much happier now

This is so cool. As a former dancer and gymnast, I love how open you are with your feelings. It's truly grueling, painful, tiring, and it doesn't always seem worth it. I am so proud of you. You're a lovely dancer, and you make me wish I had stayed in it! Well done queen.

I feel like dance in general is such a competitive industry where you are constantly putting yourself through the ringer emotionally and physically, always trying to be a better version and not feeling good enough. I was a competitive dancer my whole life and so I understand how hard it is to continue loving such a demanding sport and to have a healthy relationship with it. So happy you have been able to find that balance and also you are one of the most beautiful dancers I've ever seen. Your legs and feet are so stunning and just the fluidity is beautiful. Congrats on this part Luna you deserve it:)

I danced for a majority of my life and watching these vlogs has brought me to tears multiple times, seeing you in the theater brought up so many amazing nostalgic feelings. I want to dance again so bad you look so stunning!

Beautiful!!!!! Seeing the nutcracker used to be an every year occurrence for myself and my family. My brother was the athletic trainer for the Milwaukee ballet. He said he never knew how much work goes into being a ballet dancer until then. He gained a greater understanding and appreciation for me being a dancer too

I love how she's just silently warming up and all of that and it just switches to "KERRY"

i am so so proud of you luna. your nutcracker vlogs have always been my comfort videos. i am so unbelievably happy to see your healing journey with ballet, you are amazing. merry christmas :)

This year is my first year of doing the nutcracker! I was lucky and got the same roles as my friend. We both got three roles. Soldiers, back Tea, and angels.

okay these ballett vlogs became my comfort videos

I had tears in my eyes and goosebumps all over my body watching you dance on stage this is so beautiful ♥️

You were brilliant (just as I expected) and your talent shines through whenever you hit the stage! I'm beyond thrilled that you've found your place in the ballet world, and I wish you a happy holiday.

watching this made me tear up omg. seeing you dance is so special and seeing you be proud of your work and happy is so great 🥲

ahh girl it’s so cool that you’ve rediscovered your love for ballet and it’s so great to see you being happy doing it, it made me want to start getting back to ballet as well!! 🩰💘

I love the Nutcracker! I love watching it and I love being in the Nutcracker!

Oh Luna I’m so proud of you!!! You literally brought me to tears with this, can’t wait to see what you do next!!!!

Luna - "I suck at this, I won't be able to do this at all". Also Luna - "OMG, I did it!!! It didn't turn out that bad at all!!"BECAUSE YOU ARE SO GOOD AT EVERYTHING!!! 🤩🤩🤩

I love this vlog so much for so many reasons!! As a professional figure skater currently on tour, I relate so much to any performing/artist content and find it especially inspiring on the days when I want to go home. Two, I love to see other artists and their personal journeys through the ups and downs of performing, makes me feel less alone. And lastly, I love the nutcracker, although I skate, I still have so much respect and admiration for all dancers, and what you all can do, the stories you tell and the magic you create!!! I actually recently attended the nutcracker in the city my show is currently performing in. My absolute favorite part of the nutcracker each year, is the Arabian coffee princess, which you performed absolutely beautifully!! Thank you for this wonderful vlog!!!

Luna Luna Luna you crushed this!!! Your healthy and happy relationship with ballet this video was so pure and made me so content for you. You deserve all of this!! It was so special to see you like this again. Keep rocking life girl:)

the theater depression is too relatable 😭💃

i know you have a complicated relationship with your dad and i completely relate. i felt terrible for u when you talked about it. but you absolutely killed it. such a stunning dancer Luna!!! i know u said u dont feel like u have much to look forward to now but i hope u continue dancing

i've been LOVING your videos recently, like the editing style?? so nice

Your performance and this vlog were fantastic. That montage at the end made me cry. I started ballet last year at 22 and I think you and your vlogs played a big part of me having the courage to just try it, so thank you!!

luna you did absolutely amazing no joke. this video got me so emotional, i used to dance a lot too and i know how powerful the feeling of being on stage is. im so happy you overcome your fears and changed your relationship with ballet. have always fun with it you truly looks happy when youre dancing and that is all that should matter.

Love seeing this danced with dramatic truth in Kansas city for years. We did the mystery of Christmas a form of the nutcracker...was alot of fun ..

Luna, you really help me as a ballerina, just as someone to relate too. I love your videos so much, and it makes me feel so motivated to get back on stage

You're so genuine and sweet to meet in person! I'm so happy I got to see you and your journey leading up to the show:)

tech/theatre week is so fun lol… i love the stress for some reason

my mom made me quit dance in middle school, and i LOVE your ballet vlogs! i feel like i'm living vicariously through you

So so proud of you Luna, and really enjoyed being able to come along on this journey with you :)

This video maked me realized of how much love and work is in everyone of each. I just wish some day I could go that far. 💪

Just recently finished dancing in the nutcracker and omg was it a Journey with the pandemic and everything it felt so much more important and it is sad that it’s over so I totally get it. in my company we have an Arabian core and I was part of that so that music will always be special to me love that dance you look so beautiful lunaaa

sugar plum pas de deux makes me cry every time. just the music and the dance is so emotional and it just reminds me of nutcrackers.

Okay but the ending actually made me cry 🥺🥺 it’s so good to see you happy and enjoying ballet again ♥️

Beautiful dancing and partnering! You looked so happy, too. I hope you were. I know there's a let down after performances, but I hope you know that sharing your artistry made a lot of people happy. Merry Christmas, and please keep performing!

The montage at the end made me cry Luna, I am not a ballerina so I can not relate to your relationship with ballet but I can relate to love your interest, hate it and find peace with it again. I hope you can keep having a healthy relationship with ballet and be happy 🩰

My heart was already starting to pump real fast when you started dancing in the makeup room hahahahah I remember all those stage performances, I don't miss them XD

YASSS SLAY LUNA. i remember seeing your first nutcracker vlog right when i was seriously considering quitting ballet. but you made realize that this is something i want to do for the rest of my life, even if my relationship with ballet isn’t perfect. i deeply appreciate you being open and honest about your experience with ballet, because with out it, idk what i’d be doing rn.

Literally Gave me chills watching through my phone on the couch. So beautiful Luna

This has been an absolute joy to watch, this stranger over in Ireland is so proud of you! 😭😭😭

The younger dancers flocking to the camera made me so happy! It's so clear they look up to you, and it's lovely to see that they have a role model like you :)

You looked soooooooo gorgeous and graceful, I’m so glad you got the strength to be in stage again, seeing you dance is a delightful 💛💛💛 I hope we can see more of this in the following year!! Best wishes and love 💕

Luna!! I literally clapped at the end of your performance for the last show! Thank you so much for teaching all of us girls that we can accomplish our dreams if we set our minds to it :) Love ya sis

Luna!! you gave me chills

so so beautiful! the last part brought a tear to my eye! So happy for you !!

You got me crying over here. You did amazing, you look amazing and I am so proud of you!!

I’m so endlessly proud of you, Luna!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤

I'm so glad you were able to find yourself again and may I say that our Nutcracker ended Dec 12th so watching your vlogs I got to somewhat relive the experience

I had to quit ballet three years ago due to an injury, but got cleared last year to dance again and am trying to build up the courage to go to an adult ballet class! Congrats on an awesome show and I hope you are able to find more things to work towards!

the Arabian dance is my absolute favorite part of the Nutcracker!!

I'm so happy to see you in a better place. I know we all can be doing better no matter where we may be in our lives so i hope that you and everyone who would see this will continue to grown and heal. Luna i love you and your honesty and how much you share with us. you danced so beautifully :,) merry Christmas 💙

You are amazing not only because you performed wonderfully , but for the fact that you enjoyed every second of it !!! Well done Luna !! I wish you merry Christmas and stay healthy and humbled!!!! Kisses from Greece!!

congratulations, Luna ✨ i kept tearing up throughout this vlog, you are a beautiful woman and dancer. i cannot wait to see where you go and what you do next. lots of love and merry christmas!

Girl, I can totally relate with the whole being depressed. I love playing concerts but then it’s bittersweet because you’ve worked on your music for so long and then when you perform, you’re so happy in the moment but you’re sad when it’s over. Im a flutist so I understand🙃

i’m so happy for you that you got to have this experience and heal your relationship with ballet. you were wonderful

Omg Luna you're shining🥰

I love literally everything about this video and I am so happy for you and your ever growing confidence 🤍

Me encanta la danza Árabe! Es mi favorita! Lo hiciste increíble por cierto!

So proud of how far you've come Luna! This was so emotional to watch I absolutely loved it ❤

lunaaaaaa i'm so so so proud of u!!! you were brilliant, and i'm so happy ur back on dancing. you inspire me so much!

i always love nutcracker season

i had no idea of anything ballet related until this video but just the little clips you put in were beautiful and i had no idea how hard doing ballet truly was your honestly inspiring!

No because this was so beautiful Luna. You are an incredible dancer and performer! I loved watching you perform even through a screen you can see the emotion and it’s just beautiful you should be so proud 🥺

Every time the needle turn came I was so nervous for you I literally held my breath. But you nailed it it was so beautiful 🥺

Im a violinist and the rosin part had me tearing up we worship rosin like it's going extinct

Wow, as a dancer myself i could just feel the nerves en excitement watching this video, watching you go on stage and do the performances. I really miss doing this stuff.. Thank you for taking us backstage and on stage with you, it brought back some great memories

i love the nutcracker I’ve went to the theatre many times 2 watch it and I really wanna go again I hope I can next winter :DD

luna!!! i'm crying i am so so proud of you. you were absolutely stunning and that turn on the last show!!! it was so good!

Ahhh you looked absolutely stunning Luna!! 💕💖 and your performance was beautiful. Extremely proud of you, we all are!!!!!

I think the first video I ever saw of yours was from that Nutcracker video you inserted where you said “I hate myself” so it’s so lovely to see this turnaround ❤️

I just found your channel, but I already feel like a proud mom! Great job Luna, from a fellow ballet dancer💞

rewatching this year to keep me calm and rady for this year's nutcracker moment from lUNA HEHEHEH

You were positively magnificent! So so happy to see you happy about ballet…it looked like you were having such an amazing time!

i will never love a video more than these ballet vlogs. feeling emotional

I don't know the backstory of your relationship with ballet, but I wanted to say that what I watched today was an outstanding ballerina doing her thing, you looked absolutely perfect, please do not stop dancing! GORGEOUS!

Very proud of you, Luna, and happy you have found your path. You are a dancer. That will never change!
