oh my this is beautiful!
it doesnt matter if you are fat or thin, you can be a ballerina anyway only if you have the motivation
I know a girl that is kind of fat… like really fat and she is SOOOO GOOD! Even more than other skinny girls 
And it doesnt matter the age that you start to, it only matters the effort you put into it 
She really inspires me, to see what i could be like if i really practised on my dancing skills. Any hints for getting more flexible? and being able to do fluetes. (cant spell it correctly)
I just read “Bella Alyssa” instead of “Ballet: Alyssa” and I thought: Yeah, that’s what she is. Bella Alyssa. Beautiful Alyssa.
YOU ARE SO INSPIRING!
i am a ballet dancer ive been on pointe for 9months and im just now rising on pointe with no problam ive been taking alot of extra technique classes but my sotoshas are weird my front leg is high but my back leg wont go up very high any suggestions i could do at home?thankyou
Thank you so much…
how long have you been doing ballet?
sure! watch some ballet for beginners -vids and strech at home. worked for me.
) if you have enough motivation there’s no problem.
Really? i’m also 16, and i want to start ballet classes… but i don’t even know the positions…
hum, i’ve always wanted to be a ballerina, but i think i’m a bit too fat..
A couple years- though it really depends on how strong your leg and foot muscles are.
By the way my comment was toward

Well sometimes it is just a matter of how strong you are. I tried out for the dance company at my dance studio with no ballet training. Once i got accepted into the company it was required that you take a ballet class. this was my first year of ballet when i was in fifth grade. now i am in seventh grade and taking my first pointe class. it really is a matter of how strong you are. Hope this helped you
i really agree. Someone with hardly any experience can easily be on the same level as someone with tons!
usually your teacher will tell you when your body is ready. It all takes time. I’ve been dancing for 9 years and i will finally be going on pointe soon! It all depends on when your body is ready. For some it only takes one year for others it takes almost 10! (like me
thats what ballet is
she made me fall in love with ballet all over again.
i absolutely agree with you. i’m 16 and started about 6 months ago and even i’m in the most advanced class, i have improved so much, that now i’m as good as the others. if you want it and are ready to work for it, no one can tell you that you can’t do it! BALLET IS FOR EVERYONE!
WOW your amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!
how much ballet experiencedo you recomend before begining pointe/
Awesome!
i love the way she carries her arms at 0:28. she´s so classy, elegant and feminine
Moonshine148… just dont listen to anything they say. just follow your dreams!! dont let ANYBODY say that you cant do something. you can do anything you want to if your heart is in it. I started ballet at 15.. its almost been a year and i have improved dramatically. all you need is a good teacher, lot of practice time, determination, discipline, and a passion. as long as you have that, you can do anything.
True, it seems it is a little about asthetics. But I’m still convinced that if one started at like 17, and really truly was dedicated, they could make company around 23. What about the handful that started at 13? Does 4 years really make that much of a difference? Would one even be able to tell the difference between a 25 year old or a 29 year old? Or a 21 year old and a 25 year old, if all 4 were at the same skill level?
Professional companies want young dancers, because if they are, lets say, 25, they will probably only have a 6 or 7 year dance career where some one who is 18 can have a 15 year career. Let’s face it. As sad as it is, nobody wants to see a 35 year old dance Giselle when there are plenty of 22 year olds who can do it just as well. The ballet wold is harsh.
can you point me to something that proves this age limit?
I’m not trying to argue or offend you or anything, but I don’t see how you must start young to get the stamina, strength, fitness and technique of a dancer. The only thing I see that would be different is that if you started young you’d have to wait longer for pointe, which means you’d have everything before pointe down that much better.
