  • From ‘Arch’ to ‘Ouch Pouch’ and onward! Our ballet dancers demonstrate a pointe shoe-related point for every letter of the alphabet. 'S' has got to be our favourite!

      stellerz lemonfield C is for crying in the bathroom because you grew out of your point shoes during winter break and during rehearsals when you had asked to change into your soft shoes because your pointe shoes were too small and she said “no, you can’t”

      @Joni Crouch Here in the UK we have an odd mix of French and English. We'll have demi-plies and full-plies (rarely grand) but we do have grand battement. We have glissade over and under, presumably because people don't understand dessus and dessous. Lately I've heard people in class referring to preparatory position as B+; I've heard American dancers call this position zero. You're right, of course, it doesn't matter. Ballet is wonderful to watch and to do. One of the most difficult things for me was when I switched to Cecchetti from RAD. Cecchetti has different terms for the arms. Most teachers here are schooled in RAD. Personally, I prefer BBO, but there aren't many teachers about.

    For anyone who is confused for the fire/lighter basically ballerinas use fire on the tips of the ribbons so they don’t turn into string (idk how to say it but we all know what I mean)
    For the ice one ballerinas need to put their feet in ice at the end of the day because of all the hard work in ballet shoes
    And for the make up one ballerinas use that to give the shoes a shine and make them a bit more colorful or hide any blemishes so on.
    Rosin is a powder used so ballerinas don’t slip on stage

    • @chuckbeggles8858
      @chuckbeggles8858 Před rokem

      People burn the ends of the ribbons so they don't turn into something the equivalent of horse hair, which is in turn useless as a ribbon or a rope - yes people burn the ends of rope for the same reason.

    This is just the cleverest thing. The dancers look like they had a ball making it, almost as much fun as we have watching!

    Kudos to the guys behind the style and storyboard of this! Incredible visuals and modernised to remove that sometimes stuffy image of ballet! Bravo ❤️

    Bravo pour l'intelligence, la créativité, le travail incessant (individuel et ensemble), la grâce, le sourire et le plaisir donnés au spectateur. Nous accédons avec vous toutes à une autre dimension. Celle de la Beauté. Magnifique vidéo. Merci.

    I'm French and it's very weird to see some words in French, I laugh about it because I thought you had your own vocabulary for classic dance, by the way you're so professionnal and it's a real pleasure to watched an aesthetic video as you made

    that is actually really cool. I've always wanted to learn how to ballet but never had the money to get a class or the products. I have so much respect for ballerinas. Great video 💙🐝💙

    I used to do a lot of ballet when i was younger, and I remembering always hating it when entering the class, but always left with a smiling and happy face of excitement. They were good times, i got to use pointe
