“Wheeeee!!!!!” “Wheeeee!!!!” “Wheeee!!!!” I’d be making those sounds too if I ever got my legs up that high! Thanks for the great tip.
Claudia!! im getting a very late start into Ballet at 18.. its always been a dream of mine i just never thought i could do it my self! Trying to find schools that teach male adult dancers with no experience, you could imagin how hard it is..but your videos help me practice what i can until i can get into Ballet classes!
That's so exciting! I started ballet at 18 as well and now I am 24! What I did was start in a studio that offered Teen/Adult Ballet classes. Those are usually very introductory and has a large group of people who have never danced before. After a year the director of the studio asked if I wanted to start improving within the studio and evaluated me and put me in a trail ballet class with some younger kids (like 10-12 years old) I took that class for a few months and then they moved me up to intermediate. After two years I was able to move on up to pointe and with the advanced classes! It all started with the Teen Adult classes! Also don't be afraid to take classes with kids! I had to transfer studios because of moving and I am now the oldest person in the entire studio XD but I don't mind!
So do i.. thx claudia!!
I started at 30! at 26 I started contemporary dance, but ballet at 30, I'm 37 now. Obviously, my body (basketball and athletics) is not really suited for ballet, but it makes me happy. And Claudia is an excellent coach. Antonioo, wish you the best of lucks.
Omg, I have to the same! I am 18 years too and I started ballet a week ago. I've always wanted it so so bad and now I finally started ;)
How are you doing now?
@@hannanguyen4591 Wow, so inspirational! There is still hope for me lol
Would love a video about flexibility for adults. I feel like some of us who barely had splits at a younger age are questioning how much more flexible we can get and how to do so safely. I'm only 26 but already feel like I'm hitting a wall with flexibility.
I feel the same way! I just turned 29, and I've been working on flexibility for a while now, so I definitely understand the hitting a wall feeling too.
I started at 49 and it took a year for me to touch my toes. Now I have been trying to do the splits but progress is very slow. Never give up!
I'm back at ballet but I'm 63. Took a couple of years as a teen soooooo. ... getting flexible is a real challenge for me.
Oh yes that would really be helpful and I am 27years old and my flexibility is rusty
I think the best answer is "listen to your body". You can get flexible at any age, but your body will take longer than a child's. Stretching should never hurt (it may feel uncomfortable though). But if anything hurts take a rest and if a joint (knee or hip) keeps hurting you should visit a doctor to check if there are any anatomical issues. But as long as you keep these in mind and are patient, you can reach high flexibility at any age. Good luck!
Hi I hope this info helps anyone old (i.e., over 16 lol) trying to increase flexibility: for background I thought I'd work really hard (starting in my late 20s) and get my splits in a matter of months or even weeks - never had them in my life but when I started beginner ballet as an adult I really wanted them. LOL. I was so naive... sadly, it actually took me FIVE BLOODY YEARS - but I did finally get my side splits on both sides at 34 years old! I love Claudia's channel and she has also helped my flexibility immensely because she was the first person I heard say (and I don't know why this isn't more widely known/talked about) that flexibility actually depends on strength. That blew my mind! You NEED to strengthen in order to lengthen, there is no such thing as weak but stretchy muscles... just an injury waiting to happen, as I found out again and again before I understood how to strengthen and lengthen all the underused muscles (like adductors) that go into the splits. I would also highly recommend checking out/googling a lady named Stacey Neymour. She is a flexibility guru and even if you don't pay for her programs or sessions (I didn't), she has incredibly helpful free tips and videos. I credit her advice with eventually helping me get my splits, and I know if I had followed her advice all along I would have gotten them way faster (without knowing her methods, I actually injured myself a few times and set myself back months -__-). TL;DR-to get the most flexible you've ever been, strengthen as much as you can with Claudia's exercises and check out STacey Neymour to lengthen.
Thanks for the tips!!!! ❤
yassss, just what I need 😍😍😍😘😘😘
it seems I cannot get my front developpé above 90° ever. I'm not sure if it's strength or flexibility issue...
piros100 when you pull your leg up or hold it up by your foot, can you get it over 90?
@@arielburrow9433 I can get it above 90° if I'm doing a heel in hand stretch but otherwise it's barely 90° :(
Lindsey Russell a strength issue. Try the theraband exercise and keep working on your developpes 😊
Claudia, I love your channel, you’re just the sweetest! You deserve all the grow here. I’m so happy that the dance community is being so supportive off you. I send your videos to all my students, you’re not only helping dancers to be their best but the teachers too. Thank you so much and I’m so sorry about my writing... lots of love and support from Brasil 🇧🇷
i want to thank you!! for sooo long i’ve been confused on why the front of my hips hurt when i developpé a la seconde and this video made me realize that i was pushing forward, when i tried it again just now, i felt no pain!! thank you thank you thank you!!!!
i was just watching this for a little extra information and then when you got to the end and explained flat turn out and how dancers do it incorrectly to the side.. i was like wow i actually needed this so much and didn't even realise! thank you!!
I love how thoroughly you describe these things! You break everything down so much, and I'm craving that! I think of your tips when I'm in class and will definitely be thinking of these now, too!
P.S. I'm 23 and have been in ballet for about 8 months. Just started a modern dance class too!
Claudia I can’t stop watching your videos. I am always learning something new. I love ballet, and I’m so happy that I found your channel. Xoxo
Omg I have been waiting for this 💖❗️such an amazing video 💃love you Claudia 💗❤️😭
Anyone else not dance but watch Claudia’s videos anyway? 😂
Jup :)))
Absolutely
I'm not a dancer or a consumer of ballet, but I enjoy her videos. Such a positive and inclusive vibe. How did I get here? Glad you asked: On the Google home page, there was a story about dancers of color who dye their pointe shoes to match their skin tone, which had a link to a video on CZcams of how toe shoes are made, which lead to her video on pointe shoe hacks. Now, I'm hooked.
I’m an ex Irish dancer who does yoga now and I think ballet is the most impressive display of strength and control you can do. The tips help me a lot for just general strengthening, but I also love to watch the dancing!
Always wanted to be one, but had no teacher near, so all of these tips are fun.
Genius information - I followed along with this video & WOW 🙌 I feel so inspired...coming to terms with my facility (and my shortcomings) and realizing that I can turn these into showcasing my strengths through use of strengthening super-isolated correct muscles! 💪 Thank you Claudia!! 💕
Claudia, I love your exercises. I find them very insightful; not everyone has that capability of propioception applied to teach others. I'm not a professional (more like a dilettante, ha!) but I love dancing and I've improven a lot, so thank you.
Hi Claudia! This video was so helpful, especially the last bit about turning out as much as possible before doing a side developpe. I don’t really have a great turnout so I think I mentally block myself from achieving the best turnout always thinking that that’s the best I could do.
I love your channel! I just wanted to tell you I am so glad I found your channel. I'm a late start dancer. I'm 14 and I only started earlier this year. I'm not it classes yet (I will be in January) but my mom who danced all her life has been helping me out a lot. I have also been using the internet. I've been improving quite a bit and a lot of that a thanks to you. Your videos have really helped me improve on my skills and most Importantly, my attitude towards dancing. Thank you so much. 😁🙏
Love this channel! Even having not flat turn out I've noticied a great difference since I started
your exercises. Thank you! Hugs from Brazil.
Thank you so much for this video!!! I’ll definitely try all of the exercises😍 you’re amazing❤️❤️
Thank you so much Claudia - this exercise is absolutely incredible!!✨
Amazing! Thanks so much! You are always such a big helper! Love you and your videos!💕xo
I just tried these and WOW that first one alone worked so well! Thank you so much for these useful tips!
Wow this video is really helpful !! Thank you !! Could you do a video on back flexiblity??❤️❤️
I’d love to see you reacting to your old dance videos and giving critiques as a teacher!
Thank you so much for posting this! I really need to get higher developpés and I think if I do these tricks enough, I will see results💕
This is so helpful!!! I've been stuck at just under 90 for the longest time and it's so frustrating. This seems like a great tip!
So very useful !! I instantly felt a change doing these 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Thank you for the tips in this video showing the correct posture and muscles that should be used for developpe. I had no idea what I was doing wrong but I knew it didn't feel correct.
Omg I love this video so much 😍 I’m so determined to improve mine now ❤️❤️
Beautiful!!💗As always Miss Claudia awesome work your pointers on higher extensions are insane I saw 30% improvement In about 3 days Thank you!!☺💗
At 47 I have not brilliant turnout but when I developpe to the side I find it helps to look to the side and pick a spot to aim at. Same with tendus,pick a spot(still keeping your head up)where you would like your toes to be and aim for it. Make sure you keep your pelvis facing forward!
I'm not a dancer or a consumer of ballet, but I enjoy your videos. Such a positive and inclusive vibe. How did I get here?

Omggg I’ve been waiting thank you!!
Thanks a lot for your helpful tips. I’m not a ballet dancer but I’m training for aerial circus. And your tips actually worked wonderfully for me. Gradually I can see the improvement in my strength and flexibility. So biggg shout out for you and sending you lots of hugs and love!
The third tip was especially helpful. A huge thank you for making it clear💕💕
Thanks for this Claudia ❤, I struggle with my front developpe the most and I think this will help me 😊
Thank you so much❤ your videos always help me.
Woah that helped so much! Especially the part about turnout!
You're so smart! Love your videos!! ♡♡♡

THIS CLEARED UP SOOOOO MUCH!
Thank you so much, Claudia.
Wow. This is SO helpful. I'm getting back into teaching and this makes so much sense. I want to teach my girls correctly.

Thank you so much Claudia 💗😘🙋 love your videos, especially this one💖
thank you for your amazing support ❤️❤️
This is fantastic advice!! I am a fitness instructor, and I struggle with getting my students to strengthen the abductors and adductors.
Awesome!!! I’ve struggled a lot with this because I don’t have flat turnout, I thought I was supposed to feel that pain in the “front muscles” when lifting my leg to the side.
Thank you so much this works so well 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😙😙😙😙😙😙😙😙😙😙☺☺😊☺😊😀😀😀😁😁
Great tips, Claudia.
Love the ten little lifts in retiré
I’m currently training in musical theatre at college, and in ballet class I’m noticing that I’m struggling with extensions a little as far as technique goes, so this really helped me a lot! Dance has always been my weaker discipline so my goal is to really improve by the time I finish the two year course!😋
omg your tip at the very end is life changing
Thanks very much Claudia! Your tutorials are brilliant!
thank you for the support ❤️
wow! Thanks for this!!!!
Ugh! Hallelujah! I need a higher developè! Thank you so much! This helps a lots😀
YAY I'm glad it helps ❤️
Thank youuuuu, this tips really helped me
hahaha "wheee!" ah such a good tip thank you so much xo
This video was SO helpful! I really needed these tips to know what I was doing wrong❤️
I'm so glad I could help ❤️
Yay thank you! Could use this!
Omg I tried it and I have to say that it is the best hacks I have ever seen !! You are amazing!
thank you so much ❤️❤️
This video was so helpful thanks!😁😘
Early......love your vids😍
Hi Claudia! Could you do a video on hacks to have the perfect 5th position for people who don't have a flat turnout please?
PS: this video made me realize that I wasn't using the right muscles so thanks a lot for your knowledge, you're amazing! 😘
I love this channel!
Hi Claudia ! Great video. Whenever I do développés, I can only feel my hip flexor working, which is kind of painful, and not the muscle you tell us to use .. Would you have a tip for that ? xx
Thank you so much Claudia! Getting over 45 degrees is a struggle. Could you do a stretching routine for your middle split?
Omg when I learned how to properly do devont on the side, my legs was shaking a lot! I can feel a major difference. :)
I finally realized that i’m not using my hip abductor enough so now i’m working on strengthening!
Thanks a lot for explaining.
Especially on exercise number 3, pointing out about flat turnout. I always get really upset about it because I feel I’m not working it enough and that’s why I’m not achieving it
Yay, I really wanted another video like this😁 thank you ❤️
Thank you for this ❤️
My friend and I "discovered" the first hack last month completely randomly and since that we do it everyday its amazing
2 days ago I did an exercise quit similar to the 1st one! I tried to do grand battement and penche with dumbbells in the heels, Then I took them off and felt my legs like a feather!
Ps: this is my second comment LOL. I want to see your make up routine, please🙊
Really good tips. Thanks a lot!
Thank you so much Claudia❤️
No worries ❤️
Hello!! My name is Brianna (I’m from the U. S.) and I absolutely LOVE watching all of your hacks/tips videos! They all help me so so much!! I am now 18, and looking into auditioning for companies to try and get a job or internship next year, I was wondering if you would be able to do a video on tips for applying/auditioning for your first job??
thank you so much claudia, i dont have a good extension, this is really helpful. can you make a video about improving developpe avant?
that's amazing. thank you
Love all ur vids Claudia !
Omg! Thank you for this vid this helped me so much i just tried it yet i still see improvement
I'm so happy it helped you! ❤️
WHEEE WHEEE, yea, this is my favorite sound
hahahah ❤️
Great tutorial!! I was wondering if you can do a video for dancers with longer legs. I do struggle when on pointe trying to do posé turns and step up into arabesque etc, I always feel the need to bend my knee in order to get on pointe. Any tips? Thanks xx
Hey Claudia, Thank you so much for your great tips!
I wanted to ask, if you have a Video or some advice for mastering the Cabriole-jumps? (I hope i wrote that correct 🙈)
Thank you!! 😄
Amei suas dicas! Parabéns!
Love so much!!!
Love this
this helped ALOT thankyou
Claudia you made wonderful points but also if you’re not properly, placing your body like people with hypermobility like me, I know have a grade one muscle strain, and how to be careful for the next couple of weeks to not progress it, but if I had been properly placing and properly warming up before class. I wouldn’t have gone that muscle strain, very important to be warm before class
Just to add, if you could make a video for grand battment👍🙌 please! How and which muscles to use to throw that leg high. xxx💪❤😙
I would so love if you could (somehow!) do a collab with Kathryn Morgan! A reaction/commentary vid looking at some of your performances would be lovely,too, if you've got any videos you don't mind showing us.
Dear God Claudia! Thank you so much gor ex. n2!!! Finally i got an exeptional answer on how and with which exact muscles lift that leg! You have no idea how some of us suffer because we use wrong muscles. As you said, we use hip stretcher to lift and absolutely forget about inner. It's much easier with exercise n2!!!❤❤❤ Thank you thank youuu!!
A G i dont understand no2 i cant find that muscle, any tips?
Hi Claudia! I've been tracking with your videos for awhile now and find the tips really helpful. I especially appreciate your pirrouette tips, and was wondering if you could do a video on landing/finishing a turn?
I appreciate your videos, thanks so much!
thank you so much for this, and that's a great idea!! xx
Love it 💓
Thank you, this was so helpful!!
❤️ no worries at all
Also Ordered my second collections by Claudia leotard yesterday before school 😍❤️
YAY ❤️❤️
Omg this helps so much.
SO helpful! Thank you!!🤗 xx
❤️❤️❤️ I'm glad I could help!!
This video is very helpful to me.thank you great video
This video helped me soo much! So I’m pretty sure I have flat turn out and in the video you said to not(?) work the muscle in the front. So I was wondering when I do develope which muscle should I be focusing on?
