    "I haven't done a fouette in 5 years..."

      The technique doesn't really go away. It's just that you need to build back the strength/flexibility/balance required to do it.

      I can attest to that, I am a horse rider, even though I started pretty late age wise and didn't train for almost 5 years, I got back to it and it kind of took me three lessons to get back on track. It has a lot to do with muscle memory and how your brain remembers. Just like riding a bike after years or swimming or whatever. You don't have to start from the ground if you pick them up again :)

      The high point of my dancing career came when I was in the first act of the annual production of The Nutcracker with the Scottish Ballet, I was 13. That was 40 years ago, I stopped dancing after my parents divorced when I was 14, but I still get told, "you hold yourself like a dancer"....it never leaves you

    Claudia, you are such a sport, with a wonderful unassuming personality. You get a definite thumbs up from me for taking on these challenges, without having done a ballet class in such a long time. Says something about good, solid training when one is young, embedding those muscle memories, and says something about the level you attained when you quit to be able to fall into the challenges so well.

      I was a ballerina up until I was 14. The best way to start it to stretch. You will have to learn on Demi pointe as all beginners do and learn to balance. So stretch, warm up, posture and balance. If you can start with those simple steps and learning your positions then you’ll begin well. I always do Barre work in the kitchen when I’m cooking. Haven’t done ballet in thirteen years but, you enjoy just the small things you can still do

Now i do the lessons by myself.I'm 14 now and i hope that at 18 i would buy a pair pointe shoes.I hope that my feet would be ready.I watch every video in your channel and you inspiring me to continue ballet even it's impossible for me to get as good as the other girls in my age who are doing ballet.

      It’s definitely not something you should just try. Pointe shoes can severely injure you without years of training first. It’s beautiful but extremely difficult work.

    Claudia, I have no words.... YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY STUNNING! I am no match for you, even though you haven't danced for 5 years, absolutely incredible, would you be able to tell me who the dancer in the black swan clips were? I believe it's Gillian Murphy but I couldn't know for sure...

  • @rossi7056
    @rossi7056 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Thank you for this reminder that dancing can be serious or it can be fun, it can be both or one or the other. Thanks to remind that it's okay to not be in the BEST shape you've been or could be (talking about myself here) but that wherever you are still have value. =)

  • @alyssarosengard6674

    You dominated!!!! I am a beginner adult learner and am learning a basic kitri. Not on pointe. My goal is to get on pointe. Have a long way to go. I can see my feet and ankles are really starting to build.

  • @charlieedwards4331
    @charlieedwards4331 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    You passed the fourth challenge in my eyes! It is not easy to do a double ballet pirouette into a double back attitude turn and land so gracefully. Plus, you were also doing the turn combination in Pointe shoes, which only adds to the challenge!

  • @oliviarogerson3772

    How is this even possible?! I did 12 years of ballet and then stopped, I found my pointe shoes about 2-3 years later, they fit fine, but my ankles were so weak I couldn't go on pointe anymore! Amazing that you can still dance like that!

  • @SLAVEforLISA
    @SLAVEforLISA 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I loved this!!!!! You are definitely a beast!!!!! I'll bet you didn't even do a proper warmup...LOL!! You know most of the mistakes were because of timing. Timing caused you to rush a bit in the Black Swan turns, for example. And of course you pick the fastest versions. Your pirouettes are so good, and you prove once again that you can jump with any guy! I wish you would do a male trick challenge just to prove that point (though just watching you do the Sacrifice in Rite of Spring is proof enough). For the few mistakes in your fouettes, I would recommend a Claudia Dean tutorial video. (I hear she's very good ;-)... It looked like you changed your plie position from the corner, to the front, and even tried to adjust by going a bit toward second (which is when you started to travel). Brava!!!!! We should all be so brave to try this!!

  • @emilyadeliawhittle1276

    I used to be in ballet when I was little but I had to quit cause my feet naturally turn in and turning them out all the time caused me to almost tear a bunch of tendons in my ankles but girl, you’re amazing! 4 years? No dance? And you still got it!
