Hi Katie,
Just wanted to say that I love your teaching ways. Thank you so much, most grateful. Also, wanted to know if you can add the link for your ballet slippers. They fit you so well. xox
Who else is using these instead of the no intros barre video b/c you wanna hear Katie's voice when you're warming up?🤗😍😄
Are there going to be MORE videos like these?
extremely smart and helpful class, thank you!
I'm a 38 year old, fairly out of shape man. Killer dad bod. I did ballet from age 9-21. I was pretty good, actually. Now I'm recovering from a rotator cuff surgery and needed something to help along my recovery. I'm doing these in a very cramped area of my bedroom with a cane to hold on to. Your videos have been helping my shoulder recover very quickly, and I'm getting a good workout in the process. Thank you so much for making these!
wow! as a ballet student reading for ten years, i have much respect for you, and hope you recover quickly!! ❤️
@@noelle7849 Me too. you are very strong for doing this than sit on the couch :)
I love the fact u trained ballet for 10 years!!good job😍
Im in ballet for almost 6 months now and seeing u done 10 years of training and i was just like:i have so much respect for u😇
@@johnlloydmarinas6334 thank you! Just keep at it. Ballet will keep you young. Dancing will keep you happy.
Just did this and;
1. I am melting,
2. I’m more of a barre cheat than I thought, and
3. Ow, my calves.
This was really challenging and exactly what I needed as I’ll be missing my adult ballet class this week. Thanks so much Kathryn!
SHES BACK Y'ALL!!!Can't wait to challenge myself and nervously laugh while doing this and panic.Thanks Katie!!!
My pleasure!
Let us all lunge in respect.
"Height doesn't matter". That does make me feel better LOL
Well yeah, that helps ne too
I can barely lift my leg off for an inch to keep the balance too.
This barre has helped me improve SO MUCH in class, it's amazing! My alignment and stamina has improved and my teacher has noticed the difference, i do this barre a couple of times a week as well as some of the other barres (with or without holding on). As a late starter to ballet, I believe this is crucial to catching up to my classmates!
Katie: Good. Very Good.
I'm glad you think my technique of lying on the couch watching you is good.
Katie: Don’t cheat
Me: is sitting on the couch watching you suffer considered cheating?
no.
Is it?
@@spolums Sadly yes :)
no it´s not. It´s even worse :D :D
Katie: "So, I lied. Little bonus."
Me: "KATIE I THOUGHT I COULD TRUST YOU!"
Never trust a ballet teacher, it´s the same with "OK only one more time!" or "It will be quite slow don´t worry"
(BUT this is how we improve, in the end we´ve always done just a little more than expected :D )
Hi Kathryn! I can't wait to try this new barre... I'm an adult dancer (44 years) and I was left without any ballet classes back in March. After two days sitting in my sofa, I bought a standing barre for my living room and I've been doing your classes ever since! For me ballet means happiness and sanity, so thank you for your help in keeping both for the last 6 months... I just listened to your interview with Jim Nowakowski and was sad to hear about your experience with MCB this past year. But after following your story for a few years now I can only say: you rock girl!!!
kathryn Morgan I feel so proud of myself. but a bit teary. I am an ex professional dancer and now 52 years old. I was never at your standard but I too contracted an autoinume illness Type 1 diabetes when I was 26. I went undiagnosed for years becasue, people thought I was anorexic. I was very ill by the time I was diagnosed after being rushed to hospital (the doctors told me that I had staved the illness off because of the amount of dancing I was doing. They also told me that thanks to my fitness and strong heart I survived. However it was devasting for me and for 15 years I did not want to be engaged in any type of dance because I knew I could not regain the standard I was at. Eventualy I could no longer resist the magic that is ballet.. So here I find myself taking your beauctiful classes and watching your exquisite technique.via video Thank you for sharing your troubles and for your classes . Love to you
This is a fantastic barre! I’m way old and don’t teach or perform anymore so I am grateful that you have shared so much ballet with the world. Your comments during the exercises and your energy takes me right back! When you were doing the battemants I heard my own teacher in my head “fast up! slow down!” And the releves at the end, savage! I would 💯 recommend this video to any person who wants to grow their strength, balance and stamina.
I literally gasped when I got the notification 😂. Can’t wait to to try it. I rlly loved doing your zoom classes!💕
Thanks Eva!
I am 62 years old. I was learning with a Russian teacher in Israel. Thank you so much because of your classes I am able to dance again. Very grateful
The balancing in first position part was pretty easy for me. But over all this barre is BRUTAL with a capital B. I am gaining a lot of strength... Thanks Kathryne! The most exhausting were:
Ron de sham 4 TIMES??!!
frappe (super fast) They are all great! 🩰🩰🩰🩰💖
The releve thingy
I love this!!! 53 year old beginner-ish here and this is slow enough and simple enough that I can follow along without looking, but challenging enough to build strength and help me practice different timing. Thank you, Kathryn!
I've been rotating your barre videos so much, now you uploaded this. Thank you so much,Kathryn!
My pleasure!
Just finished this bar at 10:50 tonight. Trying to find my love for ballet again and have fun! This was a challenge but it also challenged my artistry and helped me see why I struggle with balance in center... Thanks so much for an amazing class that is still being used 2 years later!
Ballet barre has been the thing I never thought I needed for my health during COVID. Thank you for the encouragement.
J . Love this class I always do this in the mornings boy this makes me work you are wonderful ,,
I am a contemporary dancer, just graduated from uni mid pandemic, so I am currently not taking regular classes and this was an amazing barre! I am dripping and my turn out muscles are dead in the best way. Thank you! I will for sure return to this video again and again.
Wow. I think I died, and somehow came back to life, my whole body is shaking. As a beginner this is the hardest bar I've ever done, ever. Thank you. I severely needed this and am probably gonna try to do this as often as I can. 😭🙏🙌
I was just practicing balances today funny enough. I love these instructional videos especially because theres not that many of them on youtube. Could you please do a center pointe when you have time. I feel so directionless on what to do on pointe. Thank you for these videos!!!
I'll work on it!
@@kathryn_morgan thank you so much!
Came to this a couple of weeks ago and was a bit out of condition, so I spent two weeks doing the classical ballet barre and a couple of others before attempting this. Just completed it and - ok my technique was far from perfect - but I'm super happy with myself, as I didn't struggle as much as I thought I would! Also Katie's words of encouragement and enforcement ('don't grab onto the barre!') always seem to come at just the right moment! Thank you so much Katie! xx
THE HARRY POTTER MUSIC DURING GRANDE BATTEMENTS!!!! HOW DID YOU KNOW I WAS BACK IN MY HP PHASE😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I am so happy to find out I wasn't cheating as much as I did when I was younger. I think little ballerina me would have just died. Thank you, thank you, THANK you Kathryn for bringing awareness to this. If I could go back to my early days and do this, I would!
This is absolutely true! I have gone back to my regular classes and the teacher was really surprised that I had gained strength despite the lockdown 😀
im three days in forcing myself to finish this barre and its already getting easier. stick in there this is a valuble class. gotta roll out and massage ur muscles tho by god
three weeks later i feel like such a beast of a dancer
18 years old, trying to get the dancer me back after a few years of not taking classes! Also had surgery in January so I’m very out of shape. Got all the way through, boy was I humbled! My core and extensions need a lot of work and I could not keep up with the frappés! Feeling good and sweaty though and J will for sure be coming back to this to track my progress!
Good class. I almost don't want to add anything, but: the head is heavy, and therefore moving the head uses more abdominal muscles than anything! Everything here can add head movements, simple: head to the side when legs are front and back, and head front when going to the side. Head to the side in port de bras to the back. Just that and the arms and legs start to become super strong together without being stiff. Otherwise, great choice of exercises! If somebody has a soft floor, they should add jumps in the last exercise, fast then slooooow, which are harder!
I’ve become so much stronger doing all your classes! I always judge myself and I love letting that shit go and just enjoying the movement. Thank you for all your knowledge and sharing it with us!
Almost two years later and this barre is still a killer! 💯💪🏻🔥🥵
But man, does it work. I've been doing it religiously for three months and at 59 years old I am way stronger and steadier at the barre and center than 10 years ago.
three things in the title that i need - i’ll probably be using this later
Thank you Kathryn for bringing us this challenge barre. I am so proud of myself have finished the whole barre . I needed a lot of mental strength to stick to the end. My grand battlement was more like degage, I told myself “it is okay, just surrender “.
A year later and this is still very useful. I recently moved states for college and, being buried in school work, haven’t found the time (or the money) to look for studios to train at and haven’t been able to take a ballet class in the last 3 months so being able to do this in my dorm room at the crack of dawn as part of my morning workout is gonna help me build back my technique!
It’s been a while since I’ve danced, but watching Katie dance and teach is always so calming and healing that I will definitely watch all 47min haha
Dear Kathryn, I am a 70 yr. old former dancer from PA. I have not really danced in 20yrs.but had excellent training in my youth. Your videos are getting me through Covid - challenging , fun, love the music, and keeping me strong. I'm 5'3'', 125 lbs and have no health issues - except Covid 'fear' as I watch loved ones with this infection. Thank you for keeping me moving and healthy. Blanche H
I can't count how often I re-did this. I still suck but am definitely getting better. And I still enjoy so much the "bravo" in the end after all this pain :D Thanks!!
Can’t wait to do this after school!!
I've been doing thos barre for a month now. Thank you, Kathryn, for your guidance. Today I completed the entire barre with my mask on!
I had an actual AHA! moment during off-barre plies! I had no idea which muscles needed to pull where, and I fully felt the improvement when I found it. Thank you!!
Love this barre! I am finally able to more or less do it. Still a lot to work on, but I feel much better about it than a year ago. Thank you Kathryn Morgan for all your support and encouragement. 🩰🩰💌💌
I think there is SO much benefit to working without the barre on some occasions... shows you were sometimes you have been too reliant on the barre helping you, not you engaging and working correctly. can't wait to try
Thank you for not editing wobbles. Judging Helpful
i got to say , i started ballet for 3 months now and i improved really just watching your videos , when i do ballet i became happy and your videos make me happy and seeing myself improved is making me happy thank you for doing this videos i really love you thank you so much.
I literally GASPED when I saw you uploaded a new barre. Your class videos have saved me and my technique during this time. Thank you!!!!!
I’m so excited 😄. About a year and a half ago I started ballet and I remember really struggling with your beginner barres, and I could hardly do just 20m per day. Now, I just did this whole barre and my legs feel great, and without the barre wasn’t too bad! Of course, I realize I should probably practice letting go of the barre randomly throughout combos😂. Also, I thought it was funny frappes without barre were strange, cause I do them daily in centre, I guess this proves that has helped my balance a lot😊. Thank you!!! 😄
Wow a beast of a class🔥🔥 My legs are burning!! Thank-you so much!! Just discovered you!!
Adult learner here - I cannot wait to try this! Omg I am so excited!
THIS was HARD as f*** ... I will implement this in my training from now on. I have already done barre exercises without barre every now and then. But after doing this throughout an entire barre I really felt how beneficial this is! Thank you!
oh my...what a bar. I totally felt a ll that you mentioned and in addition I noticed two more benefits: 1 - I could not "space out", had to be absolutely present and aware of the length in my spine and where I was putting my weight to maintain balance. 2 I had to lengthen the back of my neck and use my eyes to keep focusing in front of me (no lowering my gaze allowed at any time). Really enjoyed it and will do it again. Thank you!
who else kicked something over while doing a penche!!
thankyou soo much!!
needed this to help with turnout
So a few months later after doing this a lot I have had miles of improvement!
thank you so much!
tHANK YOU FOR ABSOLUTELY DESTROYING ME TODAY KATY
How are your barres always just so perfect for what I need? Thank you so much Katie! (And also, that leotard is GORGEOUS ♥️)
I did this all in pointe shoes and the relevés at the end killed me!😂
That’s beast mode, right Katie?
If that’s not beast mode I don’t know what is!
I love this barre! It's the best you did so far, I always feel great afterwards. If you could give us some more advanced barre videos, I'd be thrilled. I always feel like I'm in class and not home alone when I follow your videos, really great!
It took me 2 hours to finish this class, had to keep repeating because I wasn't staying centred and over my supporting leg ... Fell on my butt for most of it 😂thnx Katie Morgan
You were absolutely right Kathryn! I've been doing the routine now for about 3 months and my strength in turnout is vastly stronger and improved. I look back on how unsteady I was and cannot believe how far I've come. Thank you so much.
Many thanks for this class. I am a 62-year old amateur dancer more or less at Intermediate level. Since lockdown restrictions eased in South Africa I can only attend one class per week instead of three, and felt my technique and ballet brain deteriorating. Your killer barre is a life-saver!
Thank you sooo much for this barre! My legs are burning but that's exactly what I wanted!!!
total hip replacementt. age 61, not easy. loved!
I was so pleasantly surprised - I’m stronger than I thought! Thank you so much for this barre, Katie. I know it’ll help me get even stronger!!
I am so happy you made this video! I usually dread centerwork in class because I feel so weak and off balance. This workout is just what I needed!
One of my favorite barres forever. Thank you Kathryn Morgan
Oh I am so glad barre is not on every single move! My barre (chair) is hella low and wonky throws me off balance. This will be perfect(ly painfully amazing) 😊
I had a baby a year ago and haven’t done a ballet class in 2.5 years and I thought I’d do one of your barres tonight. This was not what I thought I was getting myself in for! I am now very tired and very proud of myself! It’s insane how your muscles just remember after all this time. Brill barre!
This is great. I learned quite a few things:
1. I’m stronger than I thought I was
2. Frappés still give me headaches
3. Pas de chevals are exhausting
4. Awesome barre that I will definitely do more often
Thank you Kathryn!
I finally know that how much I love my barre
I hadn't taken a ballet class in 9 years until tonight. I did this video and it felt so good! Thank you for getting me back into after so long.
Damn Katie! This was so good! My feet hurt too! I can feel the foot and ankle stabilizers working! Thanks for this!
I *love* making my students do center barre - they groan, but ultimately they admit how much it helps improve both technique and strength! And, yeah, calves on fire! I'm stealing that... 😆
I love and hate this at the same time 😮💨
Hi Kathryn! Greetings from the Dominican Republic! I have been following you for almost two years now and been doing your barres and centers and I absolutely love them! This one is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! I could do it almost to the very end (couldn't do the last 32 fast relevés cause I almost die with the first 32 😜) but still it was very eye opening with how much I rely on the barre! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and classes! Love you! ♥️
LOVED THIS BARRE! OMG my calves are on fire!
I'm 47 years old, have a shoulder injury so I can use just one arm. And made it to the end. YESSS! Still got it.
And thank you. In The Netherlands/Amstardam we still can't dance in the studio :-(
I will be coming back to this video until local studios open up. Carpet makes tendus without the barre so much harder! But also, my balance has stayed much more intact than I thought (probably thanks to some virtual Horton classes). Thanks as always, Katie, for giving us quality, accessible, free dance content!
I think this was an amazing barre class❤ my feet died just in a great burnout the last minute. Will repeat it over again🎉
So glad we sometimes do no barre. We usually do it after we have done the exercises a few times already so we don't have to think about what the exercises are. It is so hard, but also a reality check that we are relying on the barre a bit too much sometimes.
Thank you for this video!
I started my dance journey with contemporary not ballet and we never used the bar, so this is quite familiar to me.
The only thing keeping me going through this butt-kicking were the hilarious comments you kept throwing in! Thank you so much for this amazing class!!
I love the “you can scream I can’t hear you” at the end 😂😂 this was sooooo challenging but I LOVED IT !! Thank you 💛🥰
Just did this barre on pointe...
I'm not dead yet :)
I Love how I can feel the improvement with this one - only three exercises in and my placement is way better and everything is engaged. It's wonderful how Kathryn's dancing and teaching is inspiring instead of making me feel bad about myself :))))
Love it, Thank you!!
You have no idea how much I'm sweating! At the bonus exercise it's like you read my mind! I wanted to scream so bad :P IT WAS AMAZING AND my legs are burning!! Thank you Kathryn for challenging us to become stronger :D
Heute war ich stark genug und konnte das Workout endlich schaffen. Und es hat sehr viel Spaß gemacht. Vielen Dank, Katie !
This is one of the best barres i've ever done! i've been doing it for a few weeks, and already developed strenght, turnout and balance.
i stopped taking ballet classes a couple years ago but i like to do one of your barres every once in a while and i thoroughly thoroughly enjoyed this one particularly, thank you!!!
I’ve been doing this for the past couple days and oh my god it’s been helping me sooooo much; Especially with my college video audition! Thank you Kathryn!❤️
Thank you so much for the constant motivation and encouragement throughout the barre! I almost quit after almost every combination, but you kept telling me to keep going. If KATHRYN MORGAN believed in me, why didn't I? I'm so glad I stuck with it the whole time. Thank you!!!!
I just did this barre and my body hates me haha this was wonderful Kathryn, thank you!!
I’m so grateful for your encouragement! This IS a beast of a barre but you help me fight for it. Thank you for all your efforts! You are wonderful!
When you said “ you can scream , I can’t hear you” I FELT THAT.OUCHHH.but this was so so goood! Thank you :)
I never did ballet myself, only did colorguard during my 4 years of HS while having a huge love for ballet. I remember in HS, I did your barre videos to build strength and flexibility for my activity and even after I graduated this spring, I still follow your videos to keep myself in shape since I only do work and my classes now. I decided to try this last night and holy hell it was a workout I was not expecting but it was a great workout, one I haven’t had in a while. I’ll be doing this one again when I’m not sore lol
Just wanted to say that I love your videos and you as a person, and your videos reach and help beyond the ballet community, even if it’s just me lol 🥰
omg that was so brutal but so efficient. amazing! I'm gonna use this for a week- let's see what happens! Thanks Kathryn!
Loved this class. The last exercise is perfect for me to do with my competition team. Thank you so much for the fantastic barre!
This is my favorite favorite barre for sure! I've been doing it every day and I will keep going until I can do it just like you!! Love your content 💖
Wow.. this did miracles for my balance on retire on demi point! Love this class!
This is so r-e-a-l and h-o- n-e-s-t. And t-o-u-g-h. I am so glad I found this channel. This is the first one of your videos I tried. It was a challenge . I loved it!! Brava!!
I love your videos it is also quiet helpful for me to improve my dancing
I too want to become a dancer like you..love you so so much
Thank you!
Dear Kathryn,
You will always be an inspiration to all ages & abilities, you are greatly blessed & greatly loved, never forget that! I am so grateful to have the opportunity to take your CZcams classes at home since Covid & will continue regardless. I love your technique, personality, artistry & beauty of class formats.
Music to my ears when you said you would love to develope "Kathryn & Friends". How gracious you are, after all you've been through! Thank you, stay healthy, the dance world needs you! We love you & wish you all the best, Merde, xo
That was soooo hard...That last combo was evil lol
Thank you for the amazing videos!!! You're the BEST!!!!
Yaay, I looove your classes, tips and all your videos. Thank you for all of them. Actually, I have class in a few hours😂😂❤️❤️
Oh Kathryn, thank you so much for all you do to keep the ballet community going. I have met you a couple of times at C Squared in Spring, TX and it was an honor for my daughter to attend the Ballet Intensives that were offered. Sadly, the studio was one of the affected ones due to the pandemic and they had to closed its doors. We are living in difficult moments right now. I just took this class and I’m so proud to say that I stayed until the end! Wishing you the best always. Thank you so much, you are truly an inspiration. ❤️❤️❤️
