I used to do improv dance performances and one time. I shared a wacky idea with my husband, and he had the exact same negative reaction. Now that we’ve been married for several I know this is always his reaction and I’m finally learning to keep my wacky ideas to my self,or call him out on his default response.we have to protect our perspective and not let naysayers diminish our enthusiasm to experiment.

Yes, I understand this so well. Sometimes it really is the people closest to us who simply just don't get it, which unfortunately can hurt the most. You're so right, it's much better to keep things to yourself sometimes until it's officially ready to release. I just get so excited! lol

I just came across your channel a few days ago. I’m a dance teacher myself (in The Netherlands) and I absolutely LOVE your message. I think everyone needs to see your content, just for your amazing mindset. The way you pass on your enthusiasm & love for dance is so inspiring to see. Shine bright, I’m excited to follow your journey 🤩🩰

Enough of naysayers! I've been indulging them all my life to my own detriment (so much so that I quit professional ballet to become a doctor kkkkkk I don't regret becoming a doctor, I regret being persuaded to leave art to do so). Now i AM a doctor and realize I am absolutely miserable without ballet, and without musical theater, and without opera. So, here I come back kkkkkk wish me luck, you have been a MAJOR inspo on this journey. Much love from a brazillian late bloomer ❤

I love when small channels like yours pop up in my suggestions! Immediately followed you after this video. Such a cozy vibe. Feels like hanging out with a friend. Also: you have to give us lipstick recommendations! Looks so beautiful on you. :)
@VeronicaViccora11 ай бұрын
that is soooo so kind!!! Thank you so much! As for the lipstick: I wear my go to combo every single day! Mac's lip liner in "soar," Tarte's lip paint in "birthday suit" and for some shine, a little Merit lip gloss in "au natural" or Glossier's balm.com in the rose scent! hope that helps!

Love ballet (I came to it in my late 20s) and found your vlog!! Love it and believe in you!! 🌸🕯🦢 sending you good vibes from TX. I don’t think we are watching you fail, we are watching you succeed at doing ballet! You are doing it! You are practicing and dancing! 🩰 subscribed to the slipper edit too! I get what you mean about bringing up creative ideas and someone being like, "um okay?" And you are like ??? I like this???? And you have to keep going anyway. It can be hard and it’s especially weird when that same person is supportive later once it’s more ‘successful’.

I’m so happy the algorithm is working in your favor! I’m happy it because I feel like a lot of us are on this journey of being afraid to start something from scratch around this age because society has put such a huge expectation on having it figured out before 30 and it’s such a joke. I’m also I’m this process of devoting myself to music, it’s hard work but showing up myself feels better than anything else in this world. I love your vibe and thanks for sharing your journey, I know you’re definitely giving a lot of strength to many out there 😊

im under 18 years old and ive been really wanting to start with ballet but i live in the country and it is almost impossible to find a late beginner class here. so when i was looking after some ballet vlogs because its one of my dreams to be good at it and see how it goes and these people did it, its kind of a motivation but also a "you are not alone" message. Then i found youre channel with your video its never too late and i instantly clicked on it and i was amazed what you went through and how brave you were and how you fought through the rejection. This has motivated me soo much and ive been watching youre vlogs like almost every minute i could. And i really think youre an amazing dancer because you fight through and never give up,youre passionate about it and it all pays off. i love youre dancing it looks stunning and i love that youre beeing so real with us and show us that there are ups and downs in life even when youre the happiest person on the planet.stay such an amazing person and never give up!❤

When you turn keep your shoulders above your hips. You are going backwards with your shoulders that is why you're falling. But it's fixable. Think of your upper body like a square chocholate bar

Hi! I also started ballet late (technically I still haven't started yet I am just doing my own thing at home) and I am about as far away from a professional ballerina as you can get but I understand your struggle with pirouettes, something I recently stumbled upon is I can land my pirouettes better and do more if I move my arms to second and then into first. It was a light bulb moment for me so I hope this helps. Good luck 🍀 and you are so inspiring ❤

Oh my goodness. "Why do I fear success?" Such a good message. The worry, headaches, and INTENSE OVER THINKING about "which passion am I going to follow so that I'll be really good at it, hopefully it'll be a good income, and hopefully I'll get a lot of credit from the world," are SO real. "Oh, also, I have to start young if I want to succeed in life." Like, whaaaaa??? Who came up with that rule? I really relate to your story. Thank you for being SUCH a true example to us young ones about where our joy really comes from. I still feel afraid of trying something new and spending money on some lesson or other thing I'm not sure I'll like or not, etc., but now that I've watched your video, I am so encouraged and am reminded that I am not alone:) I've even considered trying ballet;) thank you so much.

I started taking Ballet Class in 22 and I have been taking ballet classes off and on for that time. I haven't done it in while maybe I try again this year, but I am still a dancer, but instead of Ballet I am an Argentine Tango dancer been doing that for almost 10 years, that you make me wonder, if I have kept Ballet where I would be now? by the way I am in my middle 30s now
