BalletMet dancer and Columbus native Samantha Lewis has been with the company for six years. She shows us what life is like as a ballet dancer, both on stage and off.
"I will get closer to the performances that I want to give by letting go of trying to be perfect" when she said that, I stopped the video and wrote it down. That struck and will stay with me. It's crazy how just some words coming from her have helped me realize something.
"A standing ovation never gets old, that's for sure." Yes, just yes. That unimaginable, indescribable feeling when your work and dedication puts an audience to their feet. Love it.
Mine is 6:00 get up 7:00 get on train to go to school 8:50-3:10 school 4:00-7:00 gymnastics 7:30-9:30 shower, dinner, bed (I do my home work on the train or when I get home from gymnastics, or on weekends)
I agree I think the lighting makes it look so dark which gives the video a somber feel as well I love the video I'm not sure about the light and sound they are off
personally I think it fits perfectly, because ballet is a thing you love but at the same time its literally killing you physically and emotionally... its soo fucking hard, but its said that you got to do what you love. I relate to this 100% and every single day I havent been so tired yet as I am, but at the same time I am the happiest I have ever been.
huh when I was three I did dance. I was one of the best in the class. But I quit when I was 4... I still regret it to this day. I keep asking to rejoin but my mum keeps saying no...
I have been doing RG since I was 4, so 11 years now. RG is a cruel and demanding sport, if you don't have the body or the mind set, sadly, you won't succeed. They diversify too much.... :( At least in Russia.
TheLifeOfME! :P my thought exactly! Which is why I scrolled through the comments thinking "someone must've put what song this is..." it's a beautiful song
I am 14 years old and I've been a ballerina/dancer for 10 years and I just had surgery on my toe (ingrown toenail uGh) and I can't dance for like a month so it will heal properly so I've resorted to watching CZcams documentaries :))
This is literally my life, this video makes it look sad but it’s not like that! Imagine doing your job every day and just loving every second of it. Yes it’s painful and hard but it pays off❤️
Here's mine 6:25 wake up 7:20 car to school 7:50 I have music 8:30 - 3:20 school 5:40 music school 6:30 I go to mom 6:50 we go home(car) 7:10 dinner 8:00 yoga and leg,abs workout+jumping. 9:10 shower 10:00 bed time And I do my home work mostly in school
Mine is 6:00 I do my home stretches till 7:00 then to work in our salon. I only have 3 days to train in the studio and just 2hrs. I wish I had more time
Don't let excuses keep you from doing something you love, can't do the splits? Stretch. Can't do a cartwheel? Practice. You can do it, it's hard but it's nothing a ton of practice cant do.
I've been a ballerina for 12 years. I couldn't do the splits until four years ago and still can't do a cartwheel. If you set your mind to it, you'll be able to do it.
As a ballerina you don't have to be able to do the splits or cartwheels. When I started I couldn't do the splits or a cartwheel, but I have developed them over time. I started gymnastics to help wit my strength and flexibility.
***** Cherryl Clifford Giannie Ruth Gabi CW Jemily D Thanks Guys, I'm actually working on it with the help of a friend. I'm a little bit more flexible than before and you are all absolutely right. There's no elevators when it comes to success, you always have to take the stairs in order to get there :)

you can start ballet at any age. I personally started at 19 but another girl in my class started at 4! so all that matters is finding a class that fits
I took ballet from ages 4-7 and quit (i regret that). I joined back again when i was 11 and since it had been so long i had to go all the way back to beginner. It took a lot of practice and devotion to move up faster. i practiced 3-4 hours everyday to build muscle, flexibility, and technique. I'm now 13 and I LOVE ballet soooo much. I'm in an intermediate/advanced class now :) I'm not on pointe yet but my teacher thinks i might be able to by next year. It's never too late to start ballet. Devote yourself and most of all, just do it with a passion. Do it because you love it.
Heres my normal day from Monday to Friday: Get up at 6:30 Have a shower do make up eat all that blabbar up to 7:30 pack my school bag up to 7:35 Pack my dance bag 7:45 walk to school 8:00 stop of in the nearest store to get a bottle of water and a snack for dance 8:15 arrive at school 8:30 In homeroom for 8:45 at school until 1:15 Get the bus to my dance Studio 1:30 Dance until almost 10:00 at night Get picked up from mc donalds with a milkshake in my hand 10:10 Get home at 10:20 and eat then sleep. Theres my life ;-;
Yes, I'm over 20 and it makes me sad. I've always loved ballet, and never had the chance to be one. I only did it for a very short time when I was a child, and I loved it, but I was unable to continue.
Keep strong. Dont forget that despite the evil in this world, God is full of justice, mercy and love. Justice said we broke His perfect law - causing the world's previous perfection to be destroyed - and therefore we deserve Hell (like a punishment in any legal system but this is eternal as His perfect law is eternal too). Don't think you fit in that category? Ever done one of these?: lying, stealing - regardless of how small the object EVER, hating others - which is murder in God's perfect law, lusting (plus God sees our entire thought life). Justice says "the soul that sins shall die" - if we break one in thought/word/deed it's as if we're guilty of all of them. Quite simply, living by the law (which is doing everything perfectly) is impossible for sinful humans . The law shows us that 1. We will die in Hell if we fail to follow it and 2. We cannot save ourselves BUT, 3. God's perfect, immovable law points us to Christ, who followed and fulfilled the law in thought, word and deed perfectly in our place. He did what we couldn't and did it on our behalf. He was then sentenced to death on a cross, and took our personal punishment for our sin, paying our penalty (like paying our fine) completely FOR us, and has given us freedom. If we turn from the sins we have committed and repent (pursue the opposite direction of love through Christ) He will, overtime, recreate us back into that previously perfect image through The Holy Spirit which Jesus sends to all who accept Him as their personal Lord and Savior of their life. It's not about following the law - perfectly, as it's impossible - it's about letting Christ in to guide and teach you and obeying Him through His power (not ourselves as it's impossible without depending on His power and instruction). He is our substitute in His life, death and resurrection. He essentially rewrote history in our place so that, if you believe in Him, it will be as if you had never sinned if you accept Christ's death as our own in our place. He is in Heaven right now preparing a place for us so that He can take His faithful, believing children home with Him when He returns. He will ressurrect us from death when He returns, giving mercy to those who accept His love, instruction and teachings in their life, and give justice to those who refuse it. He doesn't want ANY of us to go to Hell and die for continuing in evil and rejecting His way to life, thats why He died FOR us. Hes giving EVERYONE a chance, He wants everyone to take the free gift of salvation from Hell. He wants us to be His and begin to follow His life of love and service through His power and abiding (staying) with Him. So long as we keep our hearts near to Christ through His strength, strive to follow His will of perfect love revealed in the Bible, and let Him lead in the midst of (very certain) pitfalls and struggles, we will, in time, win the ultimate victory over sin, pain and DEATH through Christ. Even if you are willing to be made willing, pray for Jesus to come in and He will do what we can't. Give us The Holy Spirit who will guide us in the right way. NOTE: You are NEVER too sinful or messed up that God cannot turn your life around through Jesus. EVER. Regardless of what you've done or what you're going through you CAN make it through Jesus. If you have any questions let me know
OMG some Americans have this really cracking voice. It sounds so awful! Some british people have that too. Does anyone know why there are so much people have that when speaking english? It sounds so terrible 😳
they're not using a lot of energy while they speak. I do it sometimes. If she were to speak with more enthusiasm it wouldn't be there. I hate the sound too.
It's called vocal fry. It's a linguistic phenomenon primarily found in the English-speaking world, but apparently it's cropping up in some other languages as well. This article gives a good overview: theconversation.com/keep-an-eye-on-vocal-fry-its-all-about-power-status-and-gender-45883
It happens to me being a spanish speaker, but it happens to me speaking english too and I just noticed I talk like that just a few minutes ago reading comments...
I feel like speding so much time in this is so stupid. I could never marry someone who does this as a "living" . I need someone who can cook , do accounting , help my business grow , etc. Not just be able to dance pretty. But everyone is diferente i guess. English is my third languaje so im sorry if I have grammer mistakes.
ew. get the fuck out of the 1950s jerk. because "dancing pretty" is the same as being a singer, a music producer, or any other JOB because that's what it is, a JOB. you definitely don't deserve a ballerina anyway.
What a rude thing to say. A dancer does more than you could ever imagine, I'd be surprised you have a spouse at all with such a closed opinion. Just like any other job, a dancer earns money, works hard, and makes a lifestyle. It's also rather sexist to say that a female's job is dependent on what you choose to do. Please, don't come and tell people that dance has wasted their lives, because this IS a living. I am sorry for the misfortune that your mind has no where to go to appreciate the arts, because it really is a rare, and beautiful experience you chose to push away.
LOL i don't give a fuck . That shit won't raise my fucken IQ like being a doctor would or being a fucken marketer. STFU ! If a doctor died a lot of people would be affected , if a dumb bitch that can dance dies ; NO ONE WOULD FUCKEN CARE! So get lost loser. #DANCEAWAYFROMMEEE
Zephie lovet STFU If u want to dance and not be anything in life THEN DO IT! IDGAF! I would hate to have parents that "Dance" , thats ME PERSONALLY! If u want to dance then DANCEEEE ! IDGAF!

I think the music is too sad; it makes her life look so depressing, when I'm sure she loves to dance!
i thought the same thing!
I agree I think the lighting makes it look so dark which gives the video a somber feel as well I love the video I'm not sure about the light and sound they are off

Could you please do a Vocal Fry tutorial. That is sooo cool.
YOUR REALLY GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!
I really wanna do ballet, but my body is just not flexible at all, I can't even do splits or cartwheel for goodness' sake!! :(
I'm a ballerina and I can't do either of those. But My friend helps me to get the splits xD
Don't let excuses keep you from doing something you love, can't do the splits? Stretch. Can't do a cartwheel? Practice. You can do it, it's hard but it's nothing a ton of practice cant do.
I've been a ballerina for 12 years. I couldn't do the splits until four years ago and still can't do a cartwheel. If you set your mind to it, you'll be able to do it.
As a ballerina you don't have to be able to do the splits or cartwheels. When I started I couldn't do the splits or a cartwheel, but I have developed them over time. I started gymnastics to help wit my strength and flexibility.

Are you a teacher? I mean, you make homework probably for your students after all. And at 13 years old? You must be hella smart.
Playliszt Man ... at least you’re not smart

I may be wrong, but it seems that you don’t know what sarcasm is. Just fixing their mistakes. :p
Playliszt Man lol i thought you were serious
12:30 school! What? What school do you go to? I remember when I was in school, our school started at 7:00 am, and ends at 1:30 p.m.
What's the song from 0:30 ?
What is that brand of pointe shoe I love them
I have suffolks and they are awesome pointe shoes! I love them too
Do you still need soft ballet shoes even if we have pointe shoes like for barre and stuff
Yes...
Jenessy Chloe Alegata Sassy Panaguiton yes of course!
what is the rheme song??
I have some question
how many hours do ballerina work week?
do ballerinas get time of?
If they do when and how many?
Do ballerinas have time for friends and family?
Glenis goodchild dancers (professionals) work about 8 hours a day, usually with 1 day a week off.
Very cool piece. My 3-year old daughter constantly pretends she is a ballerina. She watched and danced very intently during this segment.
Put her in dance asap
I agree she'll love it if you put her into a dance group
please tell me you put her in dance?
my 10 year old is on pointe. she started when she was 2.
+CoffeeAddict she probably didn't mean she went on pointe at 2, she probably started dancing at 2
I think she meant child has started dance at the age of 2
+Sophie Ding LOL IKR
Her feet might get ruined
that's really early. be careful and watch her feet so they don't get ruined.
we do some of those moves for jazz

Is it normal to start ballet 11 yrs old?
Absolutely, I started ballet when i was 13, now im 16 and intermediate
+Annabananza 2000 probably in my 14 😊
you can start ballet at any age. I personally started at 19 but another girl in my class started at 4! so all that matters is finding a class that fits
i started dance in general at 12.
I took ballet from ages 4-7 and quit (i regret that). I joined back again when i was 11 and since it had been so long i had to go all the way back to beginner. It took a lot of practice and devotion to move up faster. i practiced 3-4 hours everyday to build muscle, flexibility, and technique. I'm now 13 and I LOVE ballet soooo much. I'm in an intermediate/advanced class now :) I'm not on pointe yet but my teacher thinks i might be able to by next year. It's never too late to start ballet. Devote yourself and most of all, just do it with a passion. Do it because you love it.

You gotta be confident about ballet
Who else was stretching while watching this video?

San Diego they’re kinda supposed to look like that. Trust me, if they were dead, you would know
When you realize you are 20 and too old to start doing ballet...
You're not late! You are always at time to start!
Yes, I'm over 20 and it makes me sad. I've always loved ballet, and never had the chance to be one. I only did it for a very short time when I was a child, and I loved it, but I was unable to continue.
I started doing ballet when I was 21 I was actually one of the younger people in my beginner adult class lol
This was depressing
It WAS just a pice of sad muisc
Keep strong. Dont forget that despite the evil in this world, God is full of justice, mercy and love.
Justice said we broke His perfect law - causing the world's previous perfection to be destroyed - and therefore we deserve Hell (like a punishment in any legal system but this is eternal as His perfect law is eternal too). Don't think you fit in that category? Ever done one of these?: lying, stealing - regardless of how small the object EVER, hating others - which is murder in God's perfect law, lusting (plus God sees our entire thought life). Justice says "the soul that sins shall die" - if we break one in thought/word/deed it's as if we're guilty of all of them. Quite simply, living by the law (which is doing everything perfectly) is impossible for sinful humans
. The law shows us that 1. We will die in Hell if we fail to follow it and 2. We cannot save ourselves BUT, 3. God's perfect, immovable law points us to Christ, who followed and fulfilled the law in thought, word and deed perfectly in our place. He did what we couldn't and did it on our behalf. He was then sentenced to death on a cross, and took our personal punishment for our sin, paying our penalty (like paying our fine) completely FOR us, and has given us freedom.
If we turn from the sins we have committed and repent (pursue the opposite direction of love through Christ) He will, overtime, recreate us back into that previously perfect image through The Holy Spirit which Jesus sends to all who accept Him as their personal Lord and Savior of their life. It's not about following the law - perfectly, as it's impossible - it's about letting Christ in to guide and teach you and obeying Him through His power (not ourselves as it's impossible without depending on His power and instruction).
He is our substitute in His life, death and resurrection. He essentially rewrote history in our place so that, if you believe in Him, it will be as if you had never sinned if you accept Christ's death as our own in our place.
He is in Heaven right now preparing a place for us so that He can take His faithful, believing children home with Him when He returns. He will ressurrect us from death when He returns, giving mercy to those who accept His love, instruction and teachings in their life, and give justice to those who refuse it.
He doesn't want ANY of us to go to Hell and die for continuing in evil and rejecting His way to life, thats why He died FOR us. Hes giving EVERYONE a chance, He wants everyone to take the free gift of salvation from Hell. He wants us to be His and begin to follow His life of love and service through His power and abiding (staying) with Him. So long as we keep our hearts near to Christ through His strength, strive to follow His will of perfect love revealed in the Bible, and let Him lead in the midst of (very certain) pitfalls and struggles, we will, in time, win the ultimate victory over sin, pain and DEATH through Christ. Even if you are willing to be made willing, pray for Jesus to come in and He will do what we can't. Give us The Holy Spirit who will guide us in the right way.
NOTE: You are NEVER too sinful or messed up that God cannot turn your life around through Jesus. EVER. Regardless of what you've done or what you're going through you CAN make it through Jesus.
If you have any questions let me know
Ballet demolishes your feet though
What happens if you didn't realize that you are a dancer when you were a kid? that happens to me, it is not cool :(
Same here. It just means the traditional path to a life of dancing isn't available to us... we have to find our own way!
you can still dance, though !
OMG some Americans have this really cracking voice. It sounds so awful! Some british people have that too. Does anyone know why there are so much people have that when speaking english? It sounds so terrible 😳
I can't unhear it now 😭😭
they're not using a lot of energy while they speak. I do it sometimes. If she were to speak with more enthusiasm it wouldn't be there. I hate the sound too.
It's called vocal fry. It's a linguistic phenomenon primarily found in the English-speaking world, but apparently it's cropping up in some other languages as well. This article gives a good overview: theconversation.com/keep-an-eye-on-vocal-fry-its-all-about-power-status-and-gender-45883
Sarah Sophie thanks for basically trashing all Americans
It happens to me being a spanish speaker, but it happens to me speaking english too and I just noticed I talk like that just a few minutes ago reading comments...
My ears are bleeding from that voice
Wonderful video but OMG the cracking in her voice. It makes me not want to listen to her and it's such a pitty because the video is so great...
WHY do americans speak like that? They always end the phrases sounding like a creaking door, it's SO ANNOYING
What do you mean? What words end like that?
Yes!! ^^ for example when she says: "every dancer likes their shoes a little bit different" 2:50 min ... omg!
I wish I had not read the comments before watching the video because that's all I heard! Annoying
I don't sound like that....
Why do you assume all Americans speak like that? Stop being so general. I like your analogy though, very accurate!
She looks too rough for ballet, I don't know.
LukesMother there is no such thing as ‘too rough’ for ballet
this looks like the most depressing family ive seen
This video for whom say that the dance is just a skip....
I feel like speding so much time in this is so stupid. I could never marry someone who does this as a "living" . I need someone who can cook , do accounting , help my business grow , etc. Not just be able to dance pretty. But everyone is diferente i guess.
English is my third languaje so im sorry if I have grammer mistakes.
ew. get the fuck out of the 1950s jerk. because "dancing pretty" is the same as being a singer, a music producer, or any other JOB because that's what it is, a JOB. you definitely don't deserve a ballerina anyway.
What a rude thing to say. A dancer does more than you could ever imagine, I'd be surprised you have a spouse at all with such a closed opinion. Just like any other job, a dancer earns money, works hard, and makes a lifestyle. It's also rather sexist to say that a female's job is dependent on what you choose to do. Please, don't come and tell people that dance has wasted their lives, because this IS a living. I am sorry for the misfortune that your mind has no where to go to appreciate the arts, because it really is a rare, and beautiful experience you chose to push away.
LOL i don't give a fuck . That shit won't raise my fucken IQ like being a doctor would or being a fucken marketer. STFU ! If a doctor died a lot of people would be affected , if a dumb bitch that can dance dies ; NO ONE WOULD FUCKEN CARE! So get lost loser. #DANCEAWAYFROMMEEE
Zephie lovet STFU If u want to dance and not be anything in life THEN DO IT! IDGAF! I would hate to have parents that "Dance" , thats ME PERSONALLY! If u want to dance then DANCEEEE ! IDGAF!
So it would raise your IQ that your wife is a doctor..... OK that makes perfect sense.
Mine is 6:00
I do my home stretches till 7:00 then to work in our salon. I only have 3 days to train in the studio and just 2hrs. I wish I had more time
