Honestly this is so accurate. I dance and I can't throw or catch a ball but I get asked to do the splits or if I do anything that is mildly fexible people are astounded. I really related to this. Thankyou for the video! XX
I’m the exact same, its like they have never seen anyone do it before
Very true i agree
Omg yes
Same
Yes
It’s always amusing to me how impressed non-dancers are when they see a dancer do the splits, because it’s basically a required skill in dance and you forget not everyone can do them 😂
literally lol! like i can't even remember what it's like to not be able to do basic stretches like touching your toes and doing the splits. it's so easy for us lmao 😭
This used to happen to me alot aswell, I think people just find it incredible to see somebody more flexible than them do something they can't do. Any sport that requires flexibility goes with the people who ask to show them the splits
i go to gymnastics and i can relate
I can’t relate I am the impressed one jajaj
Yes, I am a gymnast and I often forget non-dancers/gymnasts can’t actually do flexibility
Something that always happens is that all of my teachers did ballet- EVEY SINGLE ONE OF THEM! One day I was doing releves in the hallway and my teacher came out and she asked me if I was en pointe yet and we had a whole conversation about dance which was pretty cool!
Y tho
that is so cool I wish I had teachers who dance
Really? This is the first year I've had teachers that used to dance and they both prefer hip hop
My teacher from last year used to dance with my dance teacher and that was pretty cool
Lucky
The good old sit n reach flexibility box test where it wasn't long enough! Hahaha. I'm an exercise science major in college and when we were learning how to administer flexibility tests last year, we had to practice on each other. I definitely related to this.
Gym teacher: Okay, stand on the bench and reach as far past your toes as you can without bending your knees.
Me: Standing on the bench, unable to even reach my toes without bending my knees.
What is flexibility? Where can i buy some? For most stretches, i couldn't even get into the starting position because i was already stretching.
I did ballet in elementary school, this video brings back so many memories! I hated running/walking laps every Wednesday (I remember spinning around and trying to do jetes to make it more fun) and doing basketball or tag. I did some sort of test where you had to do as many sit-ups as you can and I think I got to 50 ish because we did them in ballet!
There was some sort of exercise that our PE teacher would make us do where you had to jump with you legs apart and then jump with the legs together and I would always do echappes for that lol
Dancers always win in how many crunches we can do, I think. We had to do around 100 at the start of partnering classes and I made it a daily exercise
Recently, my teacher at school told us to dance something similar to Kpop dance and it is very awkward and hard for me as a ballet dancer. Whenever I do those dance steps, I dance like a robot which is terrible. Really love this video!💕💕
I do both 💀
@@ceci--lia tbf, Kazuha did get proper training for a couple of months so it might’ve been easier for her
@@ceci--lia but they trained to be kpop idols and got different dance lessons so 🌜
I had a friend who only danced ballet all her life, wasn't trained in other styles. When she danced hip hop, she looked kinda floppy.
ballet has always felt so awkward for me ugh but i'm en pointe now so i just have to suck it up lol
I am not a dancer, but a contortionist. So the stretches are soooooooo easy for me plus my gym teacher loves me cause I have opted swimming and yoga. I legit pass my fitness tests with flying colours.
This is so relatable😂✨
Woahh a contortionist?? So cool!
@@nevaehfr Thank you so much💗
@@nysachaturvedi :))
Omg....the stretching and the splits!!!
I remember those gym class days... Ugh! The running 😩 I didn't mind volleyball though. Of course I was always the most flexible! (Cue the pointing and stares)
This literally still happens to me.....I turned 50 this year! My niece's friends are always asking me to drop into a split for them or "Aunt Val, put your foot behind your head!" 🙄 Again...
Someone will walk into the room on Christmas and my 13 year old son and I are sitting there both with a foot behind our heads and a handful of teenagers (most of them top BMX athletes lol) are trying to touch their toes unsuccessfully. It's quite the site, especially when the old lady in the room hops up and puts her palms flat on the floor 😂!
I did that to my middle son's wrestling teammates at one meet. They had a break and a bunch were on a corner of a mat stretching and stuff. Well the boys bend over to touch their toes and bent their knees, my kid included, so I went on the mat and asked them what they were doing. They replied that they were stretching. I did razz them a bit about bending their knees and how they weren't going to get much of a stretch that way. Then I said something along the lines about a good stretch is like this...and bent over, knees straight, and touched not quite my palms, but the backs of my fingers and a little bit past the base knuckles of my hands. No previous stretch, I came straight from the bleachers to the mat
The looks on those high school boys faces was priceless and the looks from some of the parents was like, " You show them how it's done, girl!". 😆
As a girl in middle school currently I can confirm this is me at school. It's so awkward because none of my school friends do dance so they can't relate to me. The most accurate one for me was always having the pointed toes, it's just instinct at this point.
Hey Mackenzie!!! This is just soooo relatable! These have all happened to me, and also, while we had PE, our teacher made us do the pike stretch, I mean stand up and reach your toes, and all my classmates looked at me so amazed. They couldn't believe how further I would go😂😂
Same girl same
i feel u gurl lol
I'm one of the most flexible dancers on my team and tbh whenever we are stretching I always don't go as far as I normally would because I hate when people stare and say things like "omg how do you do that?"
lol for real, the looks I get when my palms are on the floor 😭😭
@@rhapsody206 yesss ik when they just look at you
My classmates knew I'm a dancer and they told our teacher about that, at the end of the school year, the teacher asked me to perform in front of the entire class and recorded it. I was wearing a uniform dress and dying inside.
The most embarrassing moment in my life. I still cringe when I think about that.
I’m not even a dancer (I’m a gymnast) but I can relate to pretty much all of these 😂 the flexibility, sucking at other sports, essays (about gymnastics), leaving school early for meets, etc. I’ve also had people tell me to “prove” that I can do a backflip lol I’ve even had people tell me to teach them how to do one
When we play sports in gym everyone will yell at me because 1, I stink at EVERYTHING except dance and 2, because I don’t wanna try because of number 1 lol
I do dance and theatre and I had a dress rehearsal for a play and I was a fairy. I had sparkles and makeup and rhinestones stuck to my face, and right after the dress rehearsal I had my first basketball practice and I literally showed up with a full face of makeup and glitter everywhere and I was like 9 😂 I was embarrassed but now it's just kinda funny
Do you still do basketball?
No, I stopped so I could do more dancing. I can still play it and I still enjoy it, but I am not on a team anymore.
@@anniemoore35 That’s fun!
I soooo hated gym class! It was the most stressful thing at school for me. I hated playing volleyball (which we did like 90% of the time) and other games, I hated everything apart from gymnastics. I had all Cs and two A+s for flexibility and cheer competitions 😅
This reminds me of how glad I am that I was homeschooled. And also makes me think of the one time I went to church camp, was thrown into a game of softball (which I just had to google to make sure I was saying the right sport) and everyone was shocked I didn't know any of the rules or what the heck I was supposed to be doing. Nor did I really care.
Are you serious?
SAME! I’m also homeschooled, and almost the exact same situation has happened to me. Except it was basketball.
Yeah, I'm homeschooled, and when my dance friends talk about public school and stuff, I'm always just standing there clueless.
@@april.29 yeah, when that happens I’m just standing there like 😑 and thinking ‘you know I don’t know what you’re talking about right?’
heyyy I’m homeschooled too haha
I can't wait! These kinds of your videos are always so entertaining and fun! You're an incredible dancer too!
Yes so good at dance!!!
Omg “I don’t really, care. I don’t try to be good” that is soooo relatable for me even though I’ve been homeschooled my whole life
In gym class part of our dynamic warmup is skipping. Because I’ve done skipping like how we do it in ballet all my life, I literally cannot skip like any other person. So I go across the gym with pointed toes and hands on my waist. 🤣
it was odd with my sister because she was the teachers pet with everything... especially in gym class. at the beginning of gym class she would randomly do pirouettes and the gym teacher would try and spin and end up on the floor lol! im a dancer and personally I do all of these things... 😂
This is one of the most relatable videos! I hate when people ask if it is a sport. You should do a part 2
Wait till they ask you if you have to exercise to stay in shape - after enough of those questions l said "no, just good genes" .
Absolutely relatable!!! I remember pointing my feet and staying turned out for all gym jumps, hated ball related sports, only loving the gymnastics part, all that jazz! Although I do like running for some reason hmm
As a gymnast, I also relate but my class is already so done with me bc i do shit like walkovers all the time.
Honestly this is soooo true I’m a dancer,singer and actress and when I need to leave early for rehearsal everyone is like “why do you need to leave for a stupid rehearsal can’t you miss it?!” Like nobody understands!
I’m a dancer too and when ever I’m at school I have all these bruises and everyone is like “do they hit you,” “are you ok.” And I’m like I’m fine i do dance.
This is the most accurate thing I’ve seen on CZcams. Literally last week so many people asked why I had makeup on and my friend asked why we needed costumes..
Does anyone else have this issue?
When it comes to writing an essay about Shakespeare or something, I struggle SOOOO much on writing at least a paragraph. But when I write about dance, I can write PAGES AND PAGES. I could go into so much depth about the anatomy of a pointe shoe or how tutus are made. Like I could probably write a whole 700 page book about it 😂
I died at “Have you ever heard of stage lights”
The essay one is so accurate. I did my English lit review on pointe shoes and my history project on Balanchine.
😂 this is so accurate! When they say stretch however you want and you start with straddle… 😐
It was ALWAYS people asking me to do the splits! So annoying lol! Such a cute and fun skit! I would love another night or morning routine. 💕
I could literally watch you all day long. I find like everything is just so accurate all of the time
I LOVE your skit videos! They are so funny and relatable.
Way, way back when I was a freshman in high school we did a section where the girls and guys were mixed and did two classes with the two P.E. teachers, a woman and a man. The woman P.E. coach taught the section on volleyball and the man P.E. teacher taught the section on gymnastics.
Now by that time I had been doing ballet for 7 & 1/2 years and gymnastics for 6 & 1/2 years.
The group I was in did volleyball first. I can play it but it isn't a favorite. One classmate would rag on me and say things like how I wasn't a great player and that I just didn't know anything. Then they said, "Just wait til we get to gymnastics, I'll show you how it's done." to which I was basically like, "Ok, whatever."
The first day of the gymnastics the coach was showing how to do a basic somersault. I thought it was pretty entertaining 🙂. The classmate that picked on me was surprised when I did a better somersault than they did. I then heard a friend, and fellow classmate proceed to tell the other one, with a bit of exaggeration, how I had better know how to do a somersault since I had been doing gymnastics for 10 years (my friend later told me about their conversation and that they just had to do that little dig).
That was a Friday class, by the following Monday, the first classmate came to class with a doctor's note excusing them from the gymnastics class. Meanwhile two other classmates and myself had a grand time since we 3 had taken gymnastics classes and did all 3 weeks worth of routines in 3 days plus 2 extra routines that the coach had to come up with until he finally told us 3 that we could do whatever we wanted as long as it was gymnastics related. That was my most favorite 3 weeks class and it passed away too fast 😎
Last week I got to leave school early and I literally said the exact same thing to my friends and I told my fav teacher and was literally so excited 😆
One time my brother was at his baseball practice and I was doing stretches with them and I was astounded that the stretches they were doing we’re so simple I was like we’re not even going to stretch our splits?
People always think that I’m trying to show off all the time! 😆
So relateable! Everyone at school thinks ballet is like 6:26 and I find it so funny!
Omg this is so relatable! People are always asking to do splits, cartwheels,handstands etc etc.
Your skits are literally my favorite! You do so well!!
It's amazing how comparable these experiences are to those I've had as a musician...❤ it!
me at school be like:
Damn,this is soo true😭🤣
I’ve never seen a more relatable video before! Wonderful job!!
I love watching your dance videos they are so accurate.As a dancer myself this is so much fun to watch.
Literally all of these have happened to me especially the essay and the flexibility test. We had the exact same prompt too 😂😂
Early! You have inspired me to become a dancer, and thanks to you when i grow older i want to dance en pointe with a proper company! Lysm!! 💞💞💕💕💕💕
Your videos are so funny and great to watch! I can relate to all of these.
This is the most relatable video ever! I have done ballet and dance since I was 3 and this is so true!
This is awesome. I can relate. Lol. Your amazing Mackenzie
LOL this is so relatable!
i’m so excited!! cant wait to see this come out
I can relate to all of these! Especially people asking me to do splits and things, and leaving early for a comp!
The flexibility test is so on point HAHAHAHA
I remember once we were in class and a friend and I (both of us were able to do the splits) started doing a competition on who would last longer. We stayed there around 30 minutes until she had to leave. We recieved a whole class line that.
I’ve done dance for 9 years, and this is very accurate. I don’t do ballet but I understand most of these because whenever I say I do dance people always assume I do ballet. One thing you forgot is getting weird stares when you’re casually balancing on one foot in gym class. I absolutely love your videos!!!🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
everything in this vid is so relatible! you should do more!
Do you ever have people tell you, you are obsessed with dance? It happens to me all the time 😂 we’re just committed 😊
lol yes all the time
Glad I’m not the only one ☝️
lol i thought it was today
@@d3arzx LOL!!!!!
Every single bit of this video is SOOO true! I can relate to all of these
The gym class and essay writing ones are so accurate!
Can't wait!
I am startingy first dance classes soon!!
Any tips??
I am really nervous
Work on flexibility and conditioning at home it will make all the difference! Try to stretch at least 10 minutes every day. Always mark the combos as the teacher gives them to you it helps with memory. Also try not to be too hard on yourself everyone there is more concerned with their own dancing. Nerves are normal but just think of how close you are to starting your dance journey! Don’t forget to breath while you dance. I hope you enjoy your classes!
@@sarahjohnson6407 oh ty so much with your tips i actually have been stretching and i have my splits and i am trying to get my middle splits and tilt I know some acro tricks too! But what do you mean on the marking things as I am starting dance late and I am a bit confused on some of those things!
@@LLeonor23 Marking means when you do the steps but not full out like you may just do all the movements with your arms, some people they mark they turns by turning their finger and the rest with their forearms and hands.
@@funniebreadie498 Ohhh thank you for telling me I was confused!!
Don’t worry, if it’s your first dance class then it probably won’t be way above your skill level! What style are you doing?
Gurl the one about the essay litterally happened twice, so relatable😂 I love yur videos!
8:55 hits different. There was somethin about people always asking that and feeling so cool.
The first part is so relatable. I always need to modify my stretches otherwise they're too easy
The “just skip it” and the “I used to do ballet when I was little” parts are so relatable 😂
Omg can relate to so many of these! One question I get after I tell someone I just had a dance competition is: “did you win?”
Clearly they know nothing.
I totally understand this! Everything was true for me other than the 2nd one and the last one. Only because my school doesn't have flexiblity tests and I don't do competion dance
Omg I can relate to all of those! Especially the flexibility and makeup one
The running one omg!!! My dance teacher when I was in 7th grade was so against running she wrote us all notes saying we couldn't participate 😂 I was so grateful
Also for a competition one time (5th grade I think) we had to slick our hair back with a specific kind of gel and I was so tired I forgot to take a shower so the next day I went to school and the gel was kinda flakey
And this girl whispers to me "don't worry, I have dandruff too! But it's embarrassing so don't tell the boys."
Can I ask why your teacher was against running? That's kind of cool, cause I dislike running
@@candylin7964 running is high impact and if you do it on certain places (like concrete) too much it can really damage your joints
At least that's what she told us 😂 I have no idea if there's medical knowledge behind that or not
I’m a gymnast but I can totally relate!!!! I have missed so many things for gymnastics though
I dance and literally everything about the competitions is so accurate and also people asking about point shoes. Thank you so much for this amazing video I really enjoyed it.
Omg all of this is so relatable! We’re even doing the basketball unit now 😂
I relate to all of these, especially the sports and hanging out w/ friends ;-;
In school, they always ask me, if I can teach them ballet… 😅😂
Same!
This is so relatable!
you are honestly so pretty!!
OMG first of all, your hair is soooo pretty! Also, this is so relatable cuz I’m a gymnast lol!
this is so accurate every single one of these happened exactly like that
Omg so relatable! Especially the not being able to hang out one and the gym one
same thing but with synchronized swimming/artistic swimming too!
I love you Mackenzie and your videos this vid was soo relatable
So accurate because I literally cannot go one day without someone in school asking me to show them how to do a split and when i stretch in gym i always throw in my own stretches cuz the stretches they give us don’t warm u up
Omg all the questions are so reliable! Uhh it’s so annoying. Love your videos there so funny and reliable
I can relate to this too bc I do gymnastics and people do the same thing to me, ask annoying questions, make me do skills and so on.
I’m a competitive dancer and I can say these are all facts. Every second I get asked to show someone a spilt, pirouette, etc.
These are so accurate, especially the one about makeup, because I have never been able to get off eyeliner and I've been trying for almost 8 years. Now, I just don't wear any when I perform
So relatable. like when people ask if I can hang-out and then I just can skip dance.
Omg this is so relatable in every way
THAT WAS THE MOST ACCURATE VIDEO I HAVE WATCHED IN MY LIFE. Been thru every scenario
omg the sports one i relate to so much! In middle school we were running and I was leaping
Dead-serious fourth grade in the middle of class slid into a split during snack time because I was an absolute flexibility show-off during 4th-6th grade.
CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS ONE!!
I started dance in the middle of 4th grade and I can relate so much! Especially when I left school in the middle of the day for a concert and a couple people were like: “But school is more important” even though I had more than a week of school left and only 1 concert. I love this vid!
That could never been more accurate!!😅😅
The last one is sooo true for me because after I had like a dress rehearsal I had like makeup under my eyes and people always ask do you have makeup.
its SO relatable. im not a dancer but i do competitive cheer and its practically the same experience
Literally exactly how I feel every day at school ngl.
Why is this sooooo true!!! love u!
So true! This happens to me at school all the time! 😂
