For those of you who do not believe dance is a sport, let me explain. The things you see them doing in this video require athleticism. Not only are they leaping and sashaying (comparable to running), they are also doing all these things on pointe. Also, notice how well they are doing these things they are having to not look tired, despite using their core, legs, arms, and ankle muscles. Those of you who do not believe it is a sport have never taken a true ballet class while using the correct technique.
I do cross country and track. I also have been doing 5 dance classes including ballet since I was little. Running isn’t comparable to ballet, but ballet is a sport. I agree with you on that. I do running and ballet snd they have multiple differences but I see what you mean. I think ballet is a sport as well.
I have been doing ballet for 10 years and I can safely say that ballet is a sport. I’ve done over 15 sports and ballet has been the hardest. You go through so much pain while having to smile the whole time.
Not only smile, sometimes you have to act sad or something so.. but yeah, just smile without making yourself look dumb and awkward while dying inside:DD
@@summerfan2976 same, I had to quit because my foot fractured and then healed, but everytime I do ballet it refractures in the same spot. I danced on a broken foot for two years and finally had enough of it, if I even go releve now it will break
Cheesus.., those are concrete floors they’re hitting on their pointe ballet shoes. No wood, clay, dirt and grass… this athletic group is hardcore archaic when compared to others
i’d like to see you try to do 10 turns in a row in pointe shoes. those things hurt BADLY and dancing takes a ton of skill, athleticism, coordination, focus, precision, strength, and endurance seriously when these dancers leap they look like they’re floating so their hang time and vertical is insane
@@King_O-yk3rv no there is a ton of athleticism-the jumping and turning in midair. Not to burst your bubble but a lot of football players do ballet to work on their foot work. It helps them strengthen their knees legs quads and ankles
@@youngconservative mhm ok, we get it. You think there athletic, I don’t, my opinion, not yours. (There no where near as athletic as true sports players)
@@iami3rian394 BALLET IS INSANELY HARD. girls have to twist and contort in the air while making it seem graceful. not to mention turning in pointe shoes is IMPOSSIBLE. and i broke my wrist one while attempting to turn. i dare you to try to do 10 turns in a row in pointe shoes while making it seem graceful. and try leaping and turning in mid air while doing the splits…you can’t it takes so much strength and coordination to do that
@@youngconservative if I did it, or fell on my ass, neither outcome produces a sport. Becoming a chess master is also super difficult. Hell, I could argue breakdancing is just as difficult. They're still not sports. Sorry about your feefees.

@@DanTheMan-gj8dy do you do ballet?
I do ballet and jazz, and tap, and acro, and Nutcracker now, and it is indeed a sport.
Ballet on its own is NOT a sport in the true definition of the word. Use the term “athletic” instead.
@@lorrie529 yes!😁

Its soo amazing that a channel this big is supporting the fact that ballet is harder then some competitive sports
It looks Painful.
Like i can hear those damn toes crying.
It has soft pads inside the ballet shoes!
@@sya.7936 but they barely help
You're right it is very painful
my friend used to be part of a ballet company but she quit because the pain and injuries she got was too much for her.
@@summerfan2976 same, I had to quit because my foot fractured and then healed, but everytime I do ballet it refractures in the same spot. I danced on a broken foot for two years and finally had enough of it, if I even go releve now it will break
As a ballerina, yes it hurts, REALLY. BAD.
(I couldn’t walk for a day after my first ever lesson)

Balet isn't a sport. Stay viral, "sports" nation.
it’s something that takes a ton of athleticism but i do agree it’s not a sport
@@youngconservative No doubt it's difficult... but something like 5 out of seven of their videos have nothing to do with sports.

@@iami3rian394 i agree they are not sports but i’m saying it takes a lot to be good at ballet it’s not easy
Ballet isn't a sport
They compete in competitions and get marked on their performance. There are winners and losers.
