Hi everyone, welcome to Ballerina Badass! I've performed & created roles on stage, film & television, from Giselle to Transformers: War for Cybertron on Netflix; with companies that include Ballet Hispanico, Cincinnati Ballet, and Kansas City Ballet (a looong time ago, y'all), and these days I'm dipping my toes into a lot of new waters like stand-up, writing, and ranting. The reason I named my channel "Ballerina Badass" is because I originally started with ballet, but now it's so much more. Life throws a lot of curve balls, and there is more to happiness than getting "the perfect line", whatever that means to you. So, I hope you enjoy this channel! Never Give Up, Never Stop Dancing. #BallerinaBadass

5 Steps to Handle Performance Overwhelm with Ballerina Badass
zhlédnutí 256Před rokem
Hi Dancers and Dance Fans, During my last livestream (every Saturday or Sunday at 4pm PST), a professional dancer asked for advice on how to handle "performance overwhelm", and it was such a good question that I came up with these 5 suggestions. Let me know what you think, and if you have additional advice to offer. I love talking about these types of challenges for dancers at all levels - the ...

I like the music you pick (especially that Eyes on You (415) intro) SAT APR-6-2024CE 2034EDT
Very helpful! I need to do this for my daughter's tutu. Without this video, i have no idea what the correct way is.

Homer Simpson: Fun-ny!
Hello where have you been when your next live stream coming
Ughhh the toe wiggling 😩😫😩😫
😂👣🧀
Hi very helpful tips! 😊 My tutu flips over become upside down when I jump ! The underwear is revealed as a result. How to keep the tutu staying flat and stiff ?
You split my heart..
😊😊😊
Hi Georgia are you ok where have you been for last 3 months when your coming back
I sort of quit ballet myself. So demanding. But... I'm trying to get back into it... Thanks for inspiring me... You're like a muse...
Hi Georgia how are you where have you been
I would do dying swan when i had two breakups from highschool
I love about Maya is that she wasn't as flexible like the other dancers
When it comes to tutus i like going old school
Can you do another one on how to dance Giselle?
Heck yeah! Stay tuned.
This is definitely a helpful video i love the dying swan
So glad you enjoyed it!
❤👏👏👏👏❤
Hi Georgia.
THANK YOU SO MUCH PERFECT TIMING!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🩰🩰🩰🩰🩰🩰🩰🩰🩰🩰🩰🩰✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
Hooray!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🖐🇧🇷
Hi Georgia!! I’m performing the dying swan for a festival coming up and I wondered if you could maybe make a video or give me some tips in the comments on embodying the character.. or any inspiration for the dying swan. Thanks so much queen xxx
Congratulations!! I Will put together a video tomorrow, stay tuned! You’re gonna be amazing ❤️🩷💜
@@BallerinaBadass ❤️❤️❤️❤️bless u thank u
if you have time for a zoom/facetime call (no charge!) I’d love to offer a coaching to get a better sense of what you need. I’ll still make the video for my channel too.
@@BallerinaBadass Georgia !!! Thank you so much I’d absolutely love to work with you on dying swan!! How should we go about this? Again, thank you so much!
Email me at georgiaisgiselle@gmail.com and we can set it up! Yay!
👍❤
Love ballet 😊😊
Georgia 🥰🥰
Hi, but what about teaching. I think you would make a great teacher
All in good time, and thank you for the compliment❤️
I love that you're still doing these! Thanks as always :)
So glad you’re enjoying the vids, TY!
very very helpful video. Thank you.
Glad it helped you!
does the sewing go in the middle of the layer, then switching layers its a diagonal line to the next layer?
I think it depends on the tutu, try a couple of ways and test it out before doing the full skirt!
Leave your bunions alone. We love them 😂
Absolutely ecstatic to have you back ❤
I do sincerely thank you from the bottom of my heart for being friendly to me when I come in here. You do also talk about stuff that got me thinking. Since you talk a lot about shows and performing, the way I would talk about my inspirations would be to tell you in a way without giving you an 80 page comment, but telling you the way I pulled off doing the splits and borrowing from ballet exercises and being an amateur who worked various laboring jobs...and seeing the different types of music with what I do in my channel, I would say that to explain my stuff and the way I do things, it would maybe be explained by maybe saying in theory...if I was cast as some character in THE WALKING DEAD as an extra because of the backdrops if a few of my videos, i would approach explaining it by saying "if i was a movie or character in a shiw, what would i be?"...anyway...I would do a LIVE video if I knew you eould watch...because I saw some if your stuff I pulled off on my own on my better days...the cool thing about you is that you admit your worse days where young days you can do some days better than others...that's a policy I live be too...I would have to do a LIVE video to keep from writing an 80 page comment explaining my influences...anyway...thanks for being awesome
Always a pleasure. Thank you. 😊

You look gorgeous Georgia and I love your commentary and listening to you work through things. It’s all the things I think about every day too 😅

Larissa thank you for the compliment, I love hearing that you go through similar thought processes!!

So glad to see you back for these Stretch & Kvetch livestreams, but I do miss the pointe shoe parties, especially now that I actually have pointe shoes to sew.
I’m figuring out how to get the Pointe Shoe Parties going again!!
Please do not have bunion surgery. It’s awful 😞
Depends on who does it!
So glad to have you back. But why did you go away for so long?😢
Go back a few videos, I talk about it at length :) - glad to be back, thanks for the support!
❤ Love your videos. ❤
Hey beautiful lady! So good to see this and see you. I'm still dancing. I had to change pointe shoe brands because of availability. I'm now using Freeds. I'm so sorry about your dad. Hugs to you.
pointe shoe availability is a rollercoaster, right?! Glad you’re still dancing and thank you for your kind words :)
