The guy that walked in the background at like 3:54 and immediately walked out is my aesthetic
Omg yesssss
Becca Intille lmao
My spirit animal
Mood
So truee 😀
As a dancer myself I think he could’ve given them something more hip hopped styled and not every dance should be sexy
Lamia Sparkle right
Lamia sparkle you are so right, the dance was good but I feel like they would feel a lot more comfortable dancing and in my opinion it would look better
Ik
Exactly
Yes I do agree and I feel like they did a good job for not being trained dancers
When she said "I want to be sexy but my body isn't doing that" I felt that in my soul.
I'm a dancer myself, this dance teacher was actually nicer then some of the dance teachers I've had. There are diffrent types of dance teachers who have diffrent methods of teaching his method was more strict and some dancers thrive under criticism but others don't ether way I think all there work paid of and they did amazing.
Same sometimes after a dance class my dance techer will just flat out say that our class did aweful and make up dance it until we feel like we are about to pass out. But I still love dance. And so many people don't realise how dance requires so much commitment and communication.
I used to have dance Teachers a lot more scary than this and now am having teachers who are really nice. But you do progress faster with the harsh ones, provided you don’t give up.
Agreed it might sound harsh yet thats what literally keeps yall up and runin
I completely agree. Having a variety of dance teachers, whether mean or nice, enables you to have more experience and a higher employability
I'm a dancer but I don't have a dance coach or anything, j just dance at home
"Everybody looks like, long haired beautiful dancers. And I do not emulate that at *all*." This breaks my heart cuz Jazzmyne girl, you're BEAUTIFUL.
Jazzmyne was amazing
Too Bad wow. I know its different but just accept who jazzmyne is.
Too Bad why so much hate? WHAT raised you?
AnyMotion :D I accept that she isn't the stereotypical dancer. She can be whatever she wants to be. That doesn't mean I want to watch her fail at dancing. I don't like the way she looks or acts or dances, and I'm not going to pay money to watch that.
Lynn Buchannon My father and mother raised me. I do not "hate" Jazz-whatever her name is, I just don't like her. I don't think she has any future in dancing at all. I was merely stating my opinion.
When they were breaking down, i felt that.
Megan Povilaitis I had those moments in my dance clubs at school but we’re fine now
Emily Conrad that had to be really difficult. But dont worry the only person you have to impress is yourself
Should’ve gone to Kyle Hanagami
Yassss that would be so cool
Yes
ashly did that
Hey yess
Factsss
Jazz...
You are a beauty, your body, your hair, this doesn’t make you any less of an amazing person
When people stare let them stare queen 👑
Yes! I highly agree!!
I appreciate your encouragement but it isn't the easiest job to just let people stare at you without being uncomfortable or unbothered
I love Jazz's aesthetic. I really always want to see her and it's because she's inspiring.
She is absolutely gorgeous and I have always loved her personality and fashion
She was the worse dancer though
Me: *moves head 1/1000 of an inch*
Teacher: STOP LOOKING AROUND AND FOCUS
Carlz Punk 😂😂😂😂same
Carlz Punk omg same
Loving your profile pic! :)
Eliza Schuyler Hamilton ANGELICA... ELIZA!!!... and peggy 😁
Omg me tooooooo 😂😢
As a person who started dance at 19, everyone around me had been dancing for years and years, many even for a decade, and I was a literal toddler amidst a crowd of experienced adults, in both physicality and mentality. So I really connected with these girls' emotional struggles, those things are what you face when you start dancing. For those of you criticizing, don't forget that you had a start too. These girls were complete amateurs and to ask them to instantly hone the mentality of a professional dancer, which is like that of metal steel, is unfair. We should really applaud them for their effort and big jump out of their comfort zone.
A. Kamazuka thank you
A. Kamazuka Amen to that! Thank Jesus for your compassionate soul.
A. Kamazuka Someone said it!
You started dance at 19? Man, I don't have the guts to do dance again even though I'm 15. I feel like since there is different levels and experience, I would be put with the inexperience or in my age group where everyone else is more professional at dancing than I would be. That's the thought that scares me the most...
A. Kamazuka your so right
You don't always have to make everything sexy to make a dance good
btw, i made this comment almost 3 years ago, i don't completely agree with my comment anymore. I am not judging them at all, i think if they are confident that is all that matters.
But most people now prefer that way
Holo
I Guess that’s the type of dance they were going for.
But I think it is more suitable for this dance...
I personally dislike sexy dances. I’ll rather see a cute kpop dance with a lot of energy
People are saying the choreographers were too harsh on them, but the whole point was that they train like "professional dancers"
As in the type that get to dance with celebrities.
And thats the reality of it. They have every aspect of their body criticized and looked at to see how it can be better, and they have to take it and use that to improve, because thats their job.
Thank you! Honestly I would even say Robert was being very gentle on them. Other professional teachers go much more harsher to teach professional damcers
Gotta agree with both of ya
I wanna be a dancer...
they weren't harsh at all, I've experienced criticism in my dancing way harsh then they did
They were
The choreographer needed to encourage the girls more. I didn’t here one nice or good comment other than the girl choreographer and that doesn’t help the dancer. Dancers need encouragement to get through tough dancers. I get that they were being strict but not one complement is bad. I’ve seen a dancer for 9 years now and it feels amazing to know that you get something right and hear that from your dance teacher.
It’s called corrections, and corrections aren’t supposed to be nice or mean. They are criticized to help them try to be better. Check yourself before u wreck yourself
Wait what check out Ashley's video correction but also encouraging to find themselves and feel Happy about themselves. Use what they have to their advantage
Dragon_ Fruit•-• i really agree. i am a competitive dancer who dances 12 hours a week and i not only get “work on this” but also “great job on that”. i think their “mental breakdowns” were mostly because they were only getting thing that they need to do better and no positivity.
I've trained in a competitive ballet environment for 10+ years. It's all mental. l'm over the moon if the teacher pays personal attention to me with a correction. Getting told you actually look awful doing a step and getting it fixed is AMAZING. It means that they care about your improvement, harsh or not. However, I also feel like they edited out a lot content from their rehearsals, and I highly doubt that there was no praise given at all.
that's what good dance teachers do. they're not trying to make you sad or anything they're trying to make you a better dancer
Michelle is my queeeeen but can we talk about lead dancer mode Kelsey?!
Pranckall I'm in dances gymnastics and cheerleading and I do contortion and theater in dance I practice 46 hours a week gymnastics 53 hour a week cheerleading 63 hours constitution 29 hours theater 31 hours a week even. I do it in summer to I don't remember a time wasent in front of a crowd I want to quit I have so much work every week and it's just too much to handle
Chloe Bean I can see you don't have time for math
Megan Payne loooooool
Chloe Bean 222 hours... there are 168 hours in a week.
Chloe Bean lol liar we worked it out
3:54 that dude in the mirror was like "ooppsss, wrong room..."
Why didn't they just fall kyle hanagami... He would have made them so much more inspired and motivated...
ikr
Ik he would’ve been so much better
PERIODTTTT
rm's moonchild exactly
i agree, their dance teacher was good but he seemed kind of rude - it could be from an outsiders view but idk.
I know that guy was a professional and he was trying to get them to be better, but to see those girls cry was awful, it really knocked them down
Yeah he should have been nicer
He was nice! He was giving advice! I am a dancer and for me that feels normal!
LMAOOOO ALL THE STUFF HE TOLD THEM IS NOTHING COMPARED TO WHAT MY DANCE TEACHER TELLS THE GIRLS AT MY STUDIO
him: y'all need to move a little more but also don't do too much
my teacher: *will call you out in front of everyone, make fun of you by imitating your mistake and then have everyone hate you by making them run it from the top*
k unt now thats just bullying. Dance teachers are supposed to push you hard, not bring you down like that
Aurelye venegas well the way she pushes us makes sure we NEVER repeat the same mistakes ever again. Works for our studio
Cool.
My teacher: Now SOME people aren't getting into it *glares in mirror*
Kelsey is gorgeous. Like I am not kidding she is on billboard pretty.
Halzsd Carder 0:55
Respect My Dad so true😍
lol not really her jaw is too big to be gorgeous , Jazz is gorgeous and Michelle is reallly prettty
Dziana Savenia I mean it’s her opinion and what’s wrong with big jaws? But I do agree with you on the other girls
Jordan is stunning
Everyone is saying how the dance coaches were rude but that’s just how the entertainment industry works. You need to know your flaws and your mistakes and fix them if you want to come out on top and be successful. And that’s why the coach’s are there, to let you know what your doing wrong and help you fix it.
There’s a way to tell me what I’m doing wrong without being a jerk
Ok but it’s a buzzfeed video, not a dance competition
But they could've been a little nicer about it
@@camille-vs7vz so true
@@kamiabruh9200 I completely agree
I much prefer Ashleys transformation, the environment they were in just felt so forced and horrible rather than learning how to move your body and get better. It shows in their end result how they were trained for the month
I totally agree with you! And I also feel like the tittles for this two videos should be swapped. Ashley really trained like a professional (practising everyday, positive attitude, dealing with the corrections like a real dancer, taking technique classes). This video shows a lot struggles of begginer amateur dancers (learning to get togheter, to take critiques, to deal with insecurities), which is great, but I wouldn't call taking 3 classes a week a professional training.
I agree. I feel like for this specific environment it’s not beneficial to make beginner and newbie dancers train like professionals who have years of dancing experience. People who train in this setting know basic moves and footwork and how to move their body confidently. The harsh criticism isn’t going to help if they aren’t at the level the choreographers are expecting them to be. Ashley’s dance environment was perfect for a beginner because it required learning and more basic moves. However, I do understand that the point of this video is to show how professional dancers train and how tough it is. Especially when you’re dancing in a group because you have to be in sync. Hopefully this won’t scare or turn off newbies from wanting to learn how to dance
I know you think that this environment isn’t beneficial for newbies but that’s how it works in the dance world. Also most people start learning at the age of 3 or so there aren’t many 20 or so year olds starting to learn how to dance.
Mmm but thats the problem with industries, people go along with it and just say this is how it is... There really needs to be a change in the way people are treated and "encouraged" if you can call it that...
I agree buh this was training like professionals not newbies
i did like this video, but i think that they were a little rude on how their bodies and physical features look.
@Malia Certeza-Baker Buzzfeed?
Shayla Roblox yea they work for buzzfeed
Well as sad and unfortunate as it may be that's what the actual dance world is like. A lot of teachers and companies are very harsh and are super picky. As amazing as dance is, it really takes a huge mental and physical toll.
Kendall Parsons fr though
They were criticizing their bodies, they were criticizing how they USED their bodies in the dance
Can u do one that’s “we train like competitive swimmers for a month”😂
That's just to harsh for them, like seriously
Lol that would be fun
I'd like to do that so badly
Yessss
YESSS THANK YOU!!! Lol I was about to comment this
i would cry on the spot if someone told me “watch your face”
Ikr
i took a dance class one time and that was the main thing the teacher kept repeating to me. I felt same as that girl, like "of all the things i thought they would critique me on, i didn't expect the face."
@@christynj291 dance is almost always about expression and if you have very bold and distinguished features, people are especially drawn to looking at facial expressions. it's important that you emulate the emotion you're trying to convey with your body on your face as well. there's a thing called "lyrical eyebrows" haha and it's essentially moving your eyebrows to express emotions while dancing, mostly in lyrical dancing.
finally someone get how hard it is to be a dancer!!! WHERE MY DANCERS AT!?
brooke carolineee BALLERINA RIGHT HERE GIRL
BOII WE ALL HERE
brooke carolineee aye
brooke carolineee hai😊
brooke carolineee heyyy
i feel like people underestimate us dancers. dancing is hard mentally and physically. ive been dancing for 6 years now. people have said "ohhh it must be soooo easyyy" but then im like "then try" and they fail. but they still underestimate us saying dancing is not a sport. dancing is a sport and yeahh you can really enyoy doing it but it takes time, practice and confidence. if you're not confident but you still want to dance, DANCE!!! you will build your confidence as time goes by. I PROMISE ITS THE BESTTT THING EVERRR❤
Martina Duhani ikr Dancers put so much hard work into choreography and have to go through so much pain mentally and physically. This is my 7th year of dance and I consider dance more of a sport than others. Football players only play for seconds at a time dancers can be in a show for 3 - 10 minutes. So we should be more respected for our hard work
I know right, I've been dancing for like 9 years and it is hard, people don't get that us dancer work our butts of to be where we are.
I've always wanted to dance. But I'm just afraid of being the worst, or just not getting anything right. My mother dance when she was younger, and she encouraged me to do so. I want to so bad, but I'm just scared I'll be ashamed
Martina Duhani same with being a figure skater :((
Dance has always been "my thing" and I love it so much it's just so much fun for me
I am a 11 year old professional dancer. I have preformed in the Nutcracker 4 times and we start training in July for the show in December. Dancing is so much harder then people think. I also take dance class 3 times a week for jazz, contemporary and ballet. Imagine being 11 and constantly being criticized and critiqued about your body and every single move that you make. So, next time you see a dancer and he/she is just working it up on that stage, you gotta think: Wow. Cause all that work that goes into that one or two shows is incredible. Please appreciate dancers and the amazing shows we put on. ❤️
The Donut Godess omg nobody cares
saramaryam marvel Jealous
lol um ok?
humble brag
@@SaraAli-ep5xb i do.... Does that count?
Robert seemed so nice then something happend
As a dancer it is nice to see people showing the emotional as well as the physical pain you get put through. The constant critique and even the feeling that you aren't good enough. Dance isn't a hobby or a cute tutu and a leotard. It is hard and mentally challenging, but it's worth it and it is beautiful. I think their dance turned out really well in the end.
When Jazzmyn was talking about how she looked different and everyone was thinner, I was so confused because I find her absolutely gorgeous. I love her hair, clothes and body shape.
Elsie The Equestrian Right she's out here looking like a bombshell.
Yes she is beautiful
Same she’s so cute!
When it comes to dancing usually smaller body's have it easier to make moves sharper while people with bigger body's need to work 10x as harder. I completely understand how Jazz feels.
You love her hair u mm she doesn't have hair by yeah she is amazing lol
Came here right after watching Ashly learning how to dance, and I don't care what you say, no matter how professionally you are being trained, no one should be that rude, if they are trying to make you see your flaws and work with them or fix them, a constructive criticism is the best way to do that. Not make your students have a mental breakdown.
Yes, exactly! The dance instructor in Ashley's video was so much more caring and it feels like Ashley had way more fun becsuse of that.
It’s called having a thick skin and tough love...to be able to do this, you have to have that.
Coming from a dancer, this is how the industry works. They were training like PROFESSIONAL dancers. Every teacher teaches in different ways as well! Ashley was just learning how to dance but they were training like professionals thats why they were treated so much more harshly. The industry is cut throat, no sugarcoating!
Yh but it isnt 6 year olds dancing and its just the dance industry- they did right
trust me, i understand this. i compete in dance, and the training is literally awful. the training we have before competition (we have to run laps and go over the same steps for hours before we get it right.) sometimes, we have panic attacks and we can’t walk the next day, but it’s all worth it. the dancing and competing is all about it being fun, and doing it for yourself. go buzzfeed
Do you see these girls improving to anything worthwhile if they keep at it? Dancing is so hard as an adult.. Share your thoughts if you don't mind. I noticed on thing is that they were mostly in shape.
The difference of environment of this video compared to Ashly's is incredible. I don't know if it's because these girls had "more experience" or if it's the editing but dance is about sharing and having fun just as much as it is about precision and elegance. That part didn't really shine through and it's sad.
I really hate when people say dance is easy. Honestly, it's not and I'm glad this video shows you that :)
They honestly are like that one group of friends that do everything together
He was only being tough bc they were training like professionals
@5 subs before 2021 True. And he is the one that sees everything what your doing.
That's not true, I'm not a professional dancer I'm a teenager and I still get treated like they did
@@meghantremblay2590 dam :(
This “coaching” or “leadership” needs be called out on. I’m halfway through the video and first of all, I have not heard one encouraging comment from any of them, except the woman. Instead of harshly critiquing, why don’t they praise the girls for the good they’re doing and helping them work on their flaws, geez
Damaris M yeah I really didn't like this dude.
The video shows something like 5 minutes of training from probably 40+ hours. They put in criticism because it builds more drama.
Criticism helps dancers, singers, artists, ect. It lets you know what to improve on. You need to have a backbone to be in the visual arts, I know cause Im a singer and artist. Youre CONSTANTLY having yourself critiqued by others but that is a good thing, so you don't sound/seem average but A M A Z I N G. You cant be soft in this industry.
Totally agree with you! This is not a "let's have fun while dancing" class! The title says it all: "Women Train Like Professional Dancers For A Month" They probably had some words o encouragement but criticism makes the video more interesting
WELCOME TO COMPETITIVE DANCING. They don't care how good you are, you can always be better. As a competitive dancer I cried multiple times from the critique I got. You have to be better otherwise your not good. But they critique you because they want to see you succeed. Sorry to say but that coach was actually nice compared to my old one. Experience is how you are able to see how they were trained in this video. Unless you literally make a move COMPLETELY flawless, you will not get any compliments. You learn to deal as a dancer because for every 10 nos, your gonna get one yes.
Kelsey *SLAYED* tho
3113victoria they all did.
1- Jazzmyn, you're beautiful exactly the way you are
2- GET KYLE BACK! Robert is cool or whatev (is it bad I would want him as a teacher, I need strictness like how he does) BUT FOR PEOPLE WHO INSECURE LIKE THAT, GET KYLE.
Everyone is commenting on how the coaches were “rude” on commenting on there bodies but that’s how the dance world is. It sucks but I went to one of the most prestigious pre professional ballet schools and people get kicked out because of there bodies. It’s horrible but it’s the truth. I and everyone else went through this everyday.
ikr, also everyone is commenting on how he "critized" Jazz's body when, in my opinion and what i understood, he only said that because she has a different and bigger body than the others she had to make the moves a little bigger too
@@conniegarcia5676 how do you make moves big..
Jazzmyne your insecurities made me so sad because you were so fierce and amazing! Ladies you killed it.
Shannon Dunning she is a terrible person . Bashes white people all the time .
GammaG also fat
+GammaG honestly who cares about your opinion
Pam Gifford well 15 people do soooooo
MangaMercy True
Jazzmyne needs a Parris Goebel binge watch session and realize how lucky she is for looking like such a diva just like Parris.
That woman is one of my favourite choreographers/dancers ever. It has nothing to do with your figure or your hair. If anything Jazz and Parris stand out more which I think is a pro, not a con at all.
Hey Jazzmyne, if you ever see this, please watch some of her videos you'll love it and I think it will change your point of view!
But that's the moment, when you can show them, that you rock even though you aren't tiny or skinny or anything like "the others". And if you fail, fail with grace and with an attitude that says "I'm still better than you'll ever be" because you probably are. (I know what I'm talking about, I'm 5'7 and 175lbs, I was always the "big one" in my dancing group)
Anna I feel you. I danced too and believe me, with girls who look like ballerinas. So I know that feeling. But it's sad that you have given up on your passion because of that. Nobody is perfect but it shouldn't be an excuse for anyone to give anything up. Self love is important. Don't let negative thoughts stand in your way. Plus, I find it boring when every single member of the group looks alike. Okay, so maybe you know your "difference", how about embracing it?
Becca Scaredycat AGREED!! Prove them wrong! Make them embrassed!
I kept watching Jazz, she moved well, she stood out in a good way. I want to move like that. I'm 5'6" and weigh 250 lbs. I can dance but I don't think I'm in her league.
I definitely agree. Parris slays and so does Jaz
If this hard... imagine being a trainee in korea..
Exactly
Jimin especially
tiara and naomi toys tiara and naomi toys I mean I don’t see why jimin is any different from other main dancers, so I don’t know why you felt the need to point him out personally
@@pitbulls4life141 Exactly. Almost every trainee goes through the same things and it's disrespectful to belittle everyone else and just say "Especially Jimin!". How is he "better" than everyone else?
᪥ agree completely. Not everything is about BTS. (Coming from a BTS Stan) 💞
I don't think the instructors did ANYTHING for the dancer's confidence, and they were just rude overall. Not my vibe. The dancers were great tho, I'm proud of them for sticking it out
This was so eye opening as a dancer to watch. The emotions they're struggling with and the corrections they get are completely normal to me. Nothing in this video would make me even close to tears. I never realized how thick-skinned dance made me.
I understand,these corrections are normal to me
I am a professional dancer from Ohio and the stuff they were doing is really close to what I train like.
shutup
I dont interact with many people, and although I'm all for critique, I find i'll get emotional if its not worded in a polite way. I find that since i avoid people that are straight to the point I never build up any self confidence so i'll completely beat myself up after any form of criticism. I wish that I had built up that confidence when I was younger, since I have social anxiety now, and although I'm trying to overcome it, it makes small things like criticism so much harder for me.
honestly...
being a professional dancer, I loved how they never have up even during mental breakdowns.
childish sadbino wow u have a lot of likes
Me too, I am a dancer and sometimes they judge us,but they held it up.
In yoongi's voice : AAAARRRRMMMMYYYY!!!!
taesty yy ive only danced for a few months and had my whole school SHOOKKKKKKKKKK😁😀😀😀
Im a girl
3:54
*guy walks in* "hey gu--" *sees what they're doing* "oops" *leaves*
“Wow I feel so unappreciated”-every ballerina
I feel your pain sweety😢
I have been dancing since I was 2 and am now going to college to study dance. Dance is truly one of the hardest things to do mentally, physically, and emotionally. I struggle with my confidence every single day and it honestly puts you in a hole that takes so much time to get out of. I can give advice to just about everyone else to help them be themselves and do well,but when it comes to myself, it is a never ending battle. Seeing this video made me actually really happy. To know that others see how hard it really is and it shows the mental and emotonal component of it is amazing. Many people dont understand the hard work and dedication it takes to do this all. I hope people have a greater appreciation for this art form
if that is what you love and where your heart truly is, GET IT. everyone is going to have an opinion, no matter how good you are, just work hard and stick with it, GOOD LUCK!
M Kay there is a dancing college? Where do you live?
Wow. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I do ice skating so I know exactly what you mean last year I nearly quit but I pushed through and I made it
Queenie Isn't Here thank you for the support ❤️
As a dancer who's been on a break for over a year now, this was difficult for me to watch, mostly because I was jealous of them. I miss that grind. I miss the hard work and dedication. But since I don't have anywhere to take class, it's been difficult to get back. I've lost a lot of my strength and flexibility.
I'm so proud of these girls. I can relate to their insecurities and what they went through. I've also cried, I've also been picked apart piece by piece, insecurity by insecurity. Dance is relentless. I can tell they put in a ton of both physical and emotional work. And it paid off. I'm so proud. Thank you for showing me dance is still possible.
I still remember when the try guys were still in buzzfeed
I’m so glad that this video exists!
I’m a dancer and people don’t realise how difficult it can be-physically and mentally!!
Taking dance further as a career pushes you in many ways and it can sometimes make people loose their love for it. However you just have to find the reason why you started in the first place and carry on. ♥️
"There's a difference between sexy and slutty" lowkey ticked me off though. Please tell me I'm not the only one.
Yeah, they were a little harsh at times but that is honestly what most dance teachers are like. They will tear you down and pick on your every insecurity and still except you to get on that stage. Dance is so mentally and physically draining, you really have to be strong to do it for a long time.
I'm sorry personally but try me. My dance teacher tells me I need to stop eating for a week before competition because sometimes I get to "fat"
jxava tell that teacher to shove that comment up her a**, after all you are paying her to teach you and not to call you fat
Lol it didn't tick me off. Some similar comments have been told to the models on America's next top model. He wasn't calling them sluts, he was constructing them
He was only saying it because he knew they were scared of acting too "sexy" as they thought it would perceived as "slutty"
Dancing is hard I think people underestimate us dancers
Dorky Actor the pain from atractions 😅
Meredith Hagan *bows ones like you are appreciated 😌 but like I hate when people are like DANCING ISNT A SPORT FOOOTTTBBBAAAALLLL IS!!! Arghhh and I'm just *sigh ughhhhhhhh look at these abs! 😎
Dorky Actor literally. like dancers recognize the struggles and they know the reality behind being a pro dancer. a performance looks good and fun and easy but that's all. people see, nobody ever sees what leads up to the performance and what goes into it.
Dorky Actor I'm a hip hop dancer. Every time I tell a boy I'm a hip hop dancing they think I'm sucky cause I'm a girl. They underestimate how hard I work.
Dorky Actor ur so right I'm myself am a dancer and its not easy and its our jobs to make it look easy until normal people with no dancing experience try it and see the level of difficulty that's in it
I honestly don't think that jermeel was that hard on them. to be good, you have to know where to work on. You can't just be sugarcoated every single time. They are adults, they should be able to accept hardness. I agree they were kind of harsh but some criticism is good to build perfection
I understand that but being new to everything you don't need to tell somebody that they need to do something because of their eyebrows or call someone out on their weight, he was kind of harsh considering he doesn't know what their insecurities about themselves are
There’s a difference between constructive criticism and telling somebody they don’t meet conventional beauty standards
i do get what your saying, and i agree. but he went to far with the criticism
@@placeholder4218 yes frfr he did
I get you, I really do. But the way he told them, his tone, his demeanor, and the fact that that's all he said was rude and not empathetic. I mean, he had nothing good to say. But I do understand where both you and he was coming from.
3:53 when the guy walks in and IMMEDIATELY walks back out. xD
Jermeel is SO rude! You guys are beautiful, especially you Jordan. You guys just need to practice a bit more. When he said that, I began tearing up. You guys can do this, don't give up.
Btw, Jordan nice eyebrows.
It's called criticism. You have to be told and then be like i don't care about that. I will do better and I'll go harder. People always point out the different and actually being different is better than being boring. If you embrace that and show that you can do the best with what you have,the first step is to be told exactly what your insecurities are
I think so too you a re people who are amazing and butiful
Jordyn Baker it’s the real world. You can’t go to a dance class and expect the teacher to baby you. I would rather a dance teacher be harsh and yell at me and tell me what to work on.
Jermeel isn’t being rude. It’s his JOB to criticize and be harsh on people to push them to their limits and to realize that their insecurities can be used to make them better 🙄.
THAT BEGINNING THOUGH
Kim Curtis if it
This whole thing was filmed like a trailer
men don’t exist when i look at jazz😩she is so unbelievably beautiful and i love everything about her❤️

Drishya M u should reduce the words that come out of ur mouth and stay out of her business. there was no need for u to comment that

*I'm tired of all these entitled people in the comments like "pssh they're crying about that, oh try doing what im doing, they wouldnt last"*

*We get it, now it's time for you to get that not everyone is dancer*

kadygirl0000 after ten years, finally saw these thanks gurl
That "when you're in front of the mirror you're always judging yourself but when you're in front of this people "honey, I'm gonna work it"" is so revolutionary for me!!!!! THANK YOUUU JAZZMYNE
Professional dancing seems like a really toxic thing... idk
This is a beautiful video! People underestimate us dancers because they think it's easy and a waste of money. Nothing ticks me of more when someone says that dance is not a sport! It's just so rude! I have danced since I was 4-5 so 6-7 years and it's hard work! I would be lying if I said that I haven't cried before and exam or show, there's just so much pressure and if you mess up you mess everyone up! I loved the teacher so much because he reminds me of my ballet teacher! She makes us work hard and she HATES wimps! You can NOT be a wimp in her class! This video so amazing and one of my favourite videos ever.
Edit: Wow okay first I would like to thank you for over 2 k likes, that's amazing, and second, yes I believe dance is an art form too, it's both a sport and an art. Dance is also a way of expressing yourself, no matter if you've never danced a day in your life or have been doing it your whole life! Dance is hard and I'm not saying that your going to be amazing on the first day but saying that you don't need to be experienced to have fun, and having fun is the most important part of dance if it's a sport or not.
HeloMeow I completely agree with you. Just today my brother told me I shouldn't be sore from my class because dance isn't nearly and hard as hockey. So many people have said this to me. I told him I'd give him $30 if he could do the stretches and movements I do and not be sore afterwards. Let's just say I'm now $30 richer. 😉
Dance is not a sport it's a art
Ive also been a dancer ever since i was 5 and it's such an amazing sport!
It's really sad that people think that anyone can be thrown on a dance stage and suddenly become a Maddie Ziegler it takes time, effort and dedication to be the best. 😊
HeloMeow exactly I used to be in dance but stoped but I still practice and do dance at my school but it's kind of upsetting when people underestimate it or say it isn't a sport
Did anyone notice at 3:58 the guy walk in and then instantly walked back out lol
Alfie Garfoot he was like not today Satan 😂😂💀
Alfie Garfoot e
Alfie Garfoot he's like "here's my da- ummm ok bye"
3:54** but yeah XD
Alfie Garfoot that guy was their dance teacher and they didn't walk out the dance just ended😂
Is it just me or Jazz is the most beautiful women I've ever seen?
She's amazing! It just broke my heart to see her cry. ❤
Can relate so much to the girl who said she's always wanted to take dance classes but is intimidated bec everyone in those classes seem to know what they're doing -- sameeee
I’m so glad my dance teachers aren’t body critiques
Frank Iyeero i know right
At no point did their bodies get critiqued- only their dancing.
Frank Iyeero yes same
There's so many dances that compliment your body type. That's what they were going for.
That's just how teachers work. If your teacher doesn't tell you what kind of dances compliment your body type then there's really no point and you need different teachers.
they should’ve just gotten the person Ashly trained with. (Kyle i think his name was¿)
kyle hanigami ?
Hamiltrash Animates yaaasssss
Yeah kyle and haley are like the best combination as dance teachers. Add in a jake kodish and they will be fire!
Hamiltrash Animates yeah true
Hamiltrash Animates YOUR NAME I'M DYING
Jazz, you help me so much when I have body issues. Always being a bigger girl, I've always been scared to do physical hobbies. To be surrounded my thinner people that know what they are doing, I always feel shame. But I know if I don't try then nothing will happen. You're truly a wonderful woman, thank you 💜💚💜
The final performance was FLAWLESS! This is so empowering! You ROCK girls! Made me feel so good 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Being a full-time dancer myself it’s actually so refreshing to know that I'm not crazy for having a breakdown most weeks! These girls did this for a month and by week three they were really struggling with the mental game and that's only doing one style! I do all styles, all day, everyday. Mentally it's challenging but I feel like when I tell people that I'm mentally struggling that always say "why its only dancing" but try being put down for your body imagine everyday, having to stare at your body and insecurities in a mirror and the constant rejection of the industry. People always ask me "if you’re feeling like that and are being told those things why do you still do it" but it's the love for what I do and being on stage that gets me through everyday. Thank you for showing such a truthful video about what its really like to be a dancer!
did anyone else notice at 3:54 when the guy walked in and walked straight back out? 😂😂
ayesha rhys oml, lmaoo
ayesha rhys what
ayesha rhys whoa
I love this video. It shows that dance isn’t easy, it is a sport, and it takes a lot of effort, practice, and confidence.
this video is so inspirational. JAZZ YOU GO GIRLLLLL

Carlz Punk I used to be a Dancer, i had to stop because of an accident. :(
Carlz Punk HERE
HEREEEEE
Carlz Punk HEREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
HEEREEE
I liked that beginning synchronized part. I wished they had done more of that.
Melo same!!! i thought it was really cool:) i'm always a sucker for synchronization
WOW! This dance was AMAZING! I'm dancing street dance for fourth year, i've been on 6 shows in total. Before the show you're always nervous, but when you hear the crowd cheer you're happy and you stop being nervous. 🔥
Good For you this was so awesome and inspiring!
Lol I would rather dance in front of thousands of people than give a presentation
MariahFitness SAMEEEE
Same even though I can't dance cause when I have to do public speaking, I stutter a lot
MariahFitness You tell me! I have to do a 5 minute presentation soon 😣 It is also banned to write it down. So a 5 minute presentation out of straight memory😯
MariahFitness same! 😩😭
MariahFitness other way around for me
Is it just me or was Michelle SLAYING🔥🔥👏🏻💖well all of them woooow🔥❤️❤️👏🏻👏🏻
Yes I liked my own comment😂😂
Bex Xx she's rediculously hot but still cute at the same time 😂😂
Yes!! She is so stunning 😍😍😍🔥🔥
Yes Ma'am
Brendan Phillips Serious Question here: Are you saying you have to be skinny to be perfectly healthy? I'm not asking sarcastically, I'm asking for your serious opinion
i left my last studio because they were so toxic and never encouraging. i’d walk in class shaking because the teachers were terrifying. at my new studio, i’ve never been yelled at, or hit, i haven’t pulled a muscle, and i don’t leave crying. these choreographers are going so hard on them, but encouragement is so important
This is really powerful and badass. We want more videos like this. 👏👏👏
3:55 the guy is like time to work out wait never mind 😂😂😅🤣
Cookiemonster onlyeatscake Lol😂😂😂
Cookiemonster onlyeatscake is
couldn’t take my eyes off kelsey. you can tell she was a competitive dancer, it really is in the face!
Tbh helps me cope like nothing else does, it gets me thru the week knowing that i‘ll be going to dance class. It helps me with my depression and tbh i am so so in love w dancing i‘m glad i found my passion. I hope everyone gets to find their passion ♡
Guys stop. Stop saying "that's just how the dance world is." No, I call BS. I'm a dancer and you can absolutely have teachers and choreographers who critique you without shaming you or discouraging you. There is a difference. Look at Ashley's video. The guy she worked with was so nice, but still honest. The dance world is cut-throat, and there often are harsh body-shaming teachers, but that doesn't mean it's good. That doesn't mean it's okay. If anyone in this video ever sees this, YOU ROCK. You guys are so great, every single one of your bodies is awesome. There is no one definition of sexy, one definition of beautiful, you are all amazing.
I'm sorry but this Robert guy needs to stop! These girls are absolutely amazing. This was so harsh, I myself am a professional dancer and what Robert's behavior looked like clearly didn't help these girls. Kyle is much better
He is making it worse
I think its Jermeel who was rude but Robert is okay
Although it comes across rude, their hard critiques that are meant to better the performance (This happens in all occupations but especially in dance, it is a hard sport that calls for a lot of "perfection"). I do agree that both of them could have been a bit nicer due to the girls being relatively new to dance however the teachers, being professional dancers/choreographers, have been conditioned to tell the truth to better their performance (sometimes the things that seem most brutal cause the most change). The girls all killed at the end despite their previous experience so all the instruction given helped. I personally know this to be true because I take dance myself too.
They wanted to train like dancers. That is how we are trained. There are specific ways to do things and if they do wrong then they need to be called out. It's not mean its bettering them.
Clearly you're not a true professional if you haven't received criticism. I mean come on now.
Every single one of these videos is made in the SAME exact way. They start, they're excited, they break down, they get excited again, they do a fantastic job. Every. Single. Time.
Levi Sacher yet you still watch it for you to notice that it happens every. single. time.. :)
Levi Sacher yep. that's the credentials of life lol. you don't ever see a girl say one thing and only have one mood during the day. lol were a million emotions in one and I think in my opinion they put it very classy. I love them!
I don't have a problem with THEM, I have a problem with the repetition of a single storyline over and over again. This is, after all, for entertainment purposes, and probably not entirely real(-alistic). Just thinks it gets old really quick.
Levi Sacher aw boohoo you dont like the reality of life. if you're tired of it and you wanna find something more up your alley, stop watching and go find something else to watch.
I AM watching something else, why wouldn't I? If I like content and see it becoming something flawed, I criticise it. I wouldn't complain if I didn't care.
I love you guys so much! Jaz, you are my favorite. Such an inspiration! Get it gurls!!
I actually loved this video and all the ladies did great! Good job 😍😍😍
Ashly's transformation was a beginner learning how to dance like a beginner. This video is people with minimal dancing experience (probably not that different from Ashly in terms of the technical stuff) learning how to dance like it's been their job for years (and the coaches were still probably going wayyy easy on them, if they were pros and they performed like that during rehearsals they would've just been straight fired lol). The stress constantly gets to people who have been in the industry for years, of course it's going to get to them too. Being a professional artist means you have to suffer a bit so that you can become truly great.
Especial with what the video is titled
Can people stop with the comments about their name? It's not a big deal, move on
astrozombie ikrr
Loved seeing these ladies bond and finally just enjoy the joy of dance.They all looked and danced amazing! :)
when she said learning the dance is one thing and cleaning is another and me as a dancer was like “yeppppp you have no idea lol”
