I am soloist with Miami City Ballet a former soloist with the New York City Ballet. When I was a young student, I was always looking for insights into the ballet world and how to improve my dancing as well as beauty and lifestyle tips. Now that I am a professional, it is my turn to share.
On my channel I make ballet, beauty, and lifestyle videos for everyone of all ages. My goal is help dancers improve and achieve their dreams as well as open up the ballet world to non dancers. You will see many different kinds of how-to videos here including makeup, hair, ballet workouts and exercises, Q and A sessions, lifestyle advice, and DIY on this channel. I hope you find all of my videos helpful!

It is even more effective with the legs close together (heels touching, even) and turned out. You may not get the legs more than a couple inches off the ground but it really targets the right area that way.
Thank you for sharing!
Great tip. Thanks.
I love how you say "lengthen" not necessarily height when we're on our stomach . I love this workout!!!! I like short and effective too!
Thank you so so so much Katie!! I have been using your workouts for like just a week every day during my break, today I went back to my class my teacher said" I am very very much impressed. " I believe your workouts are guiding me to another level or even another world. Thank you so much again!! I am looking forward to ur new ones.
Also I am thinking if you can give us some video about correcting wrong muscles. Today I just got to know that I had been mistakenly using my outer thigh instead of inner thigh since I started ballet two years ago. No one corrected me until today. And I was a very hard worker so my outer muscle is super super tight now( Also I didnt know there was thing called "releasing muscles" at all when I studied at home in China. Now I am in Australia so I finally got to know that.) So anyway, can you please help us, giving us some workout using inner thigh specifically. Thank you in advance!!
Can you do an extension workout? I really want to get my left extension up as high as my right since it's my weaker side.
Thanks for this video
yes it would be great!!!
I know this is late, but Claudia Dean has a great video on exercises to improve extensions
I was about to go do my daily exersizes for the day... and I got this notification, so glad I looked at it! adding this to my routine, definitely
Same!
+Perry Lynn Wright I'm so glad!
Haha Im here 4 years later.
This is going to be one of my favourites. Sometimes I need to go easier on my work outs as I can push too hard. This one is a perfect regular one to build on. Thank you
Thank you so much for this video! My teacher is always telling us work on our arabesque and this helped so much!!

I'm an adult beginner and my arabesque is appalling, so thank you very much for this video!
+TheFatRatChannel I hope this helps! I am sure it is not as bad as you think!
Thank you for making this video! I enjoyed this workout very much!
That little 8 minutes is NOT for wimps!!! I'm always out of breath when it's done, but I love it!
When I round my back it is really round. I have trouble to stand strait, without a “curl” in my back. My shoulders hang down... Do you have any of your amazing tips to get rid of this? Lots of love❤️❤️
still my go to!
thank you so much i need this
+Radia Mernissi Thank you! Yes! Great idea!
Hope I'm doing this right, since my right hurts a little more than the left side. I just finished this and I'm truly feeling it!!! Thank you a lot for sharing your experience and knowledge with us. So helpful. And my dance recital is in a month and half and I really want to be in my best shape. Thank you lots again, Katie. Hope you have a nice day!!!
+Seliiiina Gomess Aww thank you so much! I appreciate it!
...the grasshopper from pilates...from floor barre going to various degrees via leg extension-front/back
Thanks. This really helps a lot for my daughter in just a week. ❤️
This is good as backbend warm up. Amazing workout. Thanks 🙏
Still my go to!!!
Brilliant instructions, thx!
Thank you Kathryn Morgan! I'm trying to improve in several areas and your videos are helping so much!
Thank you soo much for this!!
Thank you.
Thank you kindly!
wow this one was so helpful i really need to do this one more because that was hardddd
Hello! I love your videos, you're so clear and expressive to explain all. A few months ago I bought a flexi stretcher and I really can't find the way to use it properly. Do you have one? Can make a video tutorial about it? I have a problem with my hands and arms then I can't pull my legs as up as I need and need additional help, and think that this could be the way to get a better job in my routine, but I just can't do it well, specially in first and second position. I know that I have a not-so-good english, hope you can understand me.
Regards!
Thank you, great workout. Looking forward to do more.
Another great video. Thank you Katie!
I love your videos! I was needing one about arabesque. thank you 😊
+Larissa Rocha My pleasure.
this video was literally made for me
Love it thank you KM.
I love your videos, they ve helped me so much :) you are awesome
Thank you so much!!
Hi Katherine! I love your channel! Thank you so much for all the advice that you have on your channel!:)
+Courtney Elizabeth (CourtneyCouture03) My pleasure.
Great back workout!
+Leslie Johnson Thanks!
Love you!!!!
Question. When you're doing pulses/extending the legs behind, is the position parallel or turned out? This is still my favorite and go to for back workout--it's short and effective. Love it!
How do you find energy to keep going and push harder in a state of total
exhaustion during a performance? (In my case a variation with lots of
jumps)
I'm wondering too! I hope she makes a stamina video :)
I totally, completely, integrally, fully, desperately agree with a stamina video!!! I feel like the weakest person of the world when I see I can't handle any extra work, I feel lasy you know lol
Ik I'm not Kathryn but I go running once a week not too intense but as long as I can and it boosts my stamina so I can dance for longer x
I know your comment is old but maybe it helps someone. To build stamina for a variation you could split your variation in pieces. Do every piece a couple of time, maybe like 3-5. Do a small break and then continue with the next piece and do this 3-5 times. Then a little break again and so on. After you've done that, dance the whole variation. It helped me a lot
to build stamina I always practice my variation twice full out with no pauses, at first I was quite exhausted, however, once I was able to complete my variation twice, with no pauses, I found it so much easier only doing it once in my production and was, therefore, able to focus really on my technique and artistry rather than worrying about running out of stamina. I hope this helps
This was great thank you!💕
+Paige Hester My pleasure! Glad you enjoyed it!
thanks Katie!! this was just what i needed :))
+Libby Zorilla Great Libby!
This was great💕
+Paige Hester I'm so glad!
thank u for this!!
+Alice Kham My pleasure
great video can you do a petit allegro video
This was very helpful, thanks so much! Can you please do a video on increasing back flexibility, so there is a strength and flexibility video? Thank you!
I have been doing this everyday for about a week and I can already see it helping me. Do you think after 3 weeks my arabesque will be significantly higher/stronger?
I did it every other day for somewhere around 2? months and my arabesque went from barely off of the ground to at least 80 degrees. You'll get there!
This is a lot harder then I thought it would be! Also how long do you this it will take us to see results
will this also help with back flexibility??
Katie, are the ballet classes included in workout Wednesdays? I just love the new format of the channel!
+Lygia Moura Yes absolutely! I just didn't have the time to film a big long one this week. Haha but yes definitely!
+Kathryn Morgan thank you Katie! A good idea would be alternating ballet classes and strength workouts in this case. Which will be Friday's theme so? And where will performances be included? And what about the app videos, when is the next one being released?
i have a lumbar sprain (every time i do an arabesque or something behind mi with my leg hurts a lot, even walking or sleeping hurts, i stop trainning, but i want to be in shape and the doctor said that it would take almost 4 month to healdo you know some excercise to heal quickly, also any treatment? .. thank you so much..
Don Q!
So excited about this! Thanks for posting. :)
I'm working on the second shade in La Bayarde and it has quite a few sissones en pointe and I was wondering if u could do a video on those
thank you so much! Do you know some exercise or streching for opening leg but more from knee to foot, because I am open in hips but from knee down I am closed..
+Sara Radakovic Knee to foot is hard to work out. The more you can shape your feet the better, so try doing some ankle exercises actually. That can help improve your lines.
What are they called though.
Is it abnormal for my back thighs to hurt after this?
i’m wondering if my back is strong or my form is bad 😂
Haha same
Is the leg always turned out when doing this??
Meghan Lynam you can turn out your legs if u want but if u turn out just make sure your hips are always on the ground
Can you do a new workout video for your turnout
you loose like 5 hours talking and explaining even what an arabesque is sis i want the exercises not your whole story and stop doing the exercises so slow i’m not stupid i know how to do crunches and how to push up my back i mean... please
It’s for everyone. Girl, she’s trying to teach everyone at different levels, just do the exercises without the video
Belle Claire i just saw this 😭 literally i made that comment almost 2 years ago.. and i dunno why i was so rude.. damn i apologize lol i changed
Lmao, I’m proud of you 😂
It’s like your amazing five years ago. You should write a book . With paper dolls
