Most beautiful part of this video is the joy in her face! Your eyes are sparkling and your whole face lights up when you dance. Stunning to see that passion!
My dream company is the Houston ballet. whenever I feel like giving up on ballet, I watch this video. It reminds me what I'm working for. It also reminds me to have fun while I'm dancing and stop taking it so seriously. I hope to one day to be able to be in the Houston ballet and become as amazing as Aria. She dances with so much happiness and grace.
I did ballet when I was really little... I quit, but I loved drawing pointe shoes when I was little. I was so obsessed. Though I do not take ballet lessons nor train I still love watching other people with this amazing talent.
I cry everytime I watch this. Aria´s smile when she´s dancing is just so beautiful and inspiring... you can easily notice how much she loves ballet and that´s what I love the most about being a ballerina. Almost five years since this video was uploaded, it´s still my favorite.
I've been to 1 ballet....and was the only one (in our group) who enjoyed it....well, maybe I should say appreciated it. I love to watch professionals do what they do....weather it's a dancer or a doctor....the best of the best entertains me. The second these dancers move....I can tell they've put in a LOT of time and dedication. To totally commit to anything is a sacrifice to be sure....but those who succeed are a minority. It must be grueling, hard work to get to this level. I totally appreciate these dancers showing how graceful a human can be on a completely solid surface. Thank you so much Aria Alekzander....
She is gorgeous and I love her smile! Most ballet dancers have the most serious expressions... glad to see a change. You can tell she loves what she's doing because she radiates happiness and there's a glow in her eyes.
When I watch this, I'm not so much in love with all the perfection of her art form. Although it's amazing, but as a fellow dancer I'm more in awe of how happy she looks while she dances. Her joy is clear on her face and I think that's what we should all be working towards besides perfection.
I watch this one a lot when my health issues are interfering with my dancing. When I feel down it brings me up. There is so much joy in it! So it reminds me that the joy is what it is really about.
I really can't stop watching it! I'm enchanted by her smile, her perfection... I practice classical ballet, and this video makes me count the days that separate me from my lesson!
I love how she looks so happy and healthy. I remember watching a recent documentary on a certain prima ballerina from the Kirov theatre in Russia. She looked gaunt, tired, and depressed. I don't know if that's just her trying make it in a career she didn't really want, or just the way the instructors work their students. Anyways, it always pleases me to see people actually HAPPY with their performance careers, or any careers for that fact.
Aria Alekzander you are my two year old's favorite ballerina. She doesn't want to watch anyone else. She tries to copy you all the time. And she says, again again again, every time we watch you. She can't even say ballerina fully yet, allrina LOL but she knows she loves you.
Anyone who says that Ballet is easy are just flat out idiots. Ballet dancers work just as hard as atheletes. I believe that it is a physical sport as well as a beautiful form of performing arts.
+Kathryn Mitchell I watched a video recently. I can't recall the name of it but it was a physiotherapist who used to work with NFL players but now works with ballet dancers. He ranted that they often get up, work out for a few hours, then rehearse for another six hours, and then repeat this 5-6 days a week. He said flat out, ballet dancers are more athletic than professional football players.
+Stephen Mullins That is SO awesome and SO true! Ballet is one THE most hard sports (and an art. So I guess it's a spart!) in the world! At least in my opinion and I'm sure many others.
If you love to dance, they i say go for it! If you have another passion elsewhere, then go for that! You'll never get far watching other people all your life. 1 Corinthians 10:31 - "So whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God."
I remember when I saw this video, I was about 11 years old and I always said that I wanted to be like her, now I am 17 and I am currently applying to a degree in dance, it is nice to have memories of my beginnings in dance and to be reminded by these types of videos (I have been dancing since I was 6 years old and since then I have not stopped dancing)
To all the people complaining they are too old to start. You arent! anyone can do ballet. Thats what the classes are for. Go for it. Those of you who said you've done it before but quit it doesnt matter you can still go back you'll probably pick it up faster this time round. Keep calm and stretch!
i started ballet at 6. but i had to stop because idk if this is what i really want. it seems like whatever i do, my efforts weren't enough and i don't even appreciate this form of dance before because it looks like you are only hurting yourself for nothing. But when I grew up, i've realized that ballet is a beautiful form of art. Discipline and passion can make your thorns into flower during performances. But i feel too old to get back on the track. I'm hoping that someday, I can also grow like a rose as well as them.
I always look for this video whenever I need to ragain my mental focus. The song has been my companion since my 8th grade during exams and competitions. Now I'm in my 3rd year of college. I go back to this video because I'm preparing for a quiz bowl next week. This video made me achieve many things since then.
I love ballet. I love to train for the exams. I prepare myself more for the ballet exams than for the school tests. But when I talk in ballet at school everybody tells me it's very easy and I should not be proud to dance balle. They tell me that I should forget the Ballet.But when I see this video I remember that the ballet is fantastic and that if I like it I will never have to give up.
Me too. They say to me that it's too easy and I have to stop it but I love dance and anyone will say to me what will I do. If you like it, don't stop it!!!!
Never to late! Started dancing this year at the age of 21, I love it! Other people in my classes are well over my age as well, we have people from 16 to people in their 30's, 40's and sometimes in their 50's =)
@Piper Vaillancourt The girl of this comment loves ballet. She said that she hope one day do ballet classes too. (Sorry my kinda worst English, haha! I'm brazilian and I speak Portuguese.) 🤣💗
@Piper Vaillancourt And the first comment replying are saying to the girl: "So good commentary, follow ur heart and maybe u could be better than the dancer of this video." ♡
she is honestly... wow. head to her toes... does anyone else LOVE her feet en-pointe? even in that last jump her feet.... and in her arabesque(i know, i spelt it wrong) her foot is PERFECTLY sickled out!!!! SOOOOOOOOO perfect!
This is like a huge slap in my face for stopping ballet when I was 7. I'm 16 now and still dance but I've lost a lot of my flexibility and can't even do the splits now T_T Probably never gunna be able to restart ballet again...
The way you dance is life. Oh my goodness. So absolutely beautiful. You are my new favourite dancer to watch. Everything about you is just flawless. I just... wow
@ Keiti Kitty- I did the same exact thing as you; started at 5/6 stopped when I was 10, but I picked ballet up again at 14 and I fell in love with it. Needless to say, I am not great, but you don't have to be amazing or even good to enjoy yourself. I try to let myself laugh at my mistakes and remember I am just learning. Its fun, so just try to have fun and not worry too much.
she has a lovely smile!! wonderful. all the ballet documentaries I've watched tend to portray ballet as something that requires so much hard work and dedication (and it definitely does!!) but also somehow super stressed out and almost a bit gloomy....but here it's portrayed in such an uplifting way which is great! :)
You can do Ballet at any age. I think I started ballet when I was 9. If you want to do ballet at 14 you can do it! It just might be a bit difficult. When I began ballet I was not very good at it not flexible, no coordination etc you can do it if you believe in yourself!
Un-believable. Thanks for posting AnaheimBallet. Its great to see these people training. I suppose I never thought of them as humans; they were always just these little bouncy things on a stage somewhere.
So many years later and this is still my favourite ballet video.
+.. )
Same!!!
Most beautiful part of this video is the joy in her face! Your eyes are sparkling and your whole face lights up when you dance. Stunning to see that passion!
Yes!!!!

This is so beautiful, we should respect ballet dancers so much for what they do. Thank you, this has made me really happy and inspired.
واو
Thank you.... as a ballerina I appreciate it
I did ballet when I was really little... I quit, but I loved drawing pointe shoes when I was little. I was so obsessed. Though I do not take ballet lessons nor train I still love watching other people with this amazing talent.
Wow, Aria has such natural grace and power. It's amazing. To me, the best Athletes make their sport look flawless! Wonderful dancing.

This made me cry, I miss ballet so much and loved how her face is full of joy!

I am a ballerina and my little sister told me super excited "i wish i could be like her"
I totally agree with your sister🙈
i agree with my sister too xD

I like bullet but i cant find any one to train me😥😥
Wow... That took my breath away-multiple times!
When I watch this, I'm not so much in love with all the perfection of her art form. Although it's amazing, but as a fellow dancer I'm more in awe of how happy she looks while she dances. Her joy is clear on her face and I think that's what we should all be working towards besides perfection.
She makes it look so effortless. She is so light and smooth. The smile... so inspiring in all aspects!

I cried like a little baby. Yes, I get emotional watching videos like this. But I couldn't help it, it's just so beautiful!
I used to watch this so often a few years ago. Still love her
everytime I watch this video,I cry like a little baby.
she's just beautiful..I love the way she smiles when she's dancing!
Questa ballerina esprime sorridendo le sue emozioni e la fatica che prova senza far vedere la difficoltà, tutto questo è semplicemente meraviglioso!
I can't stop watching this video
Me too

BEAUTIFUL! Gives me such joy to watch her artistry. What discipline & grace!
She looks so happy doing what she (looks like) really loves :)
She does,and you love what you do you will be great at it,and she is
The music is very encouraging and whenever my daughter listens to this, she just got excited and really wanted to go back to her ballet training.
Anyone who says that Ballet is easy are just flat out idiots. Ballet dancers work just as hard as atheletes. I believe that it is a physical sport as well as a beautiful form of performing arts.

They are athletes, it's just an art form of being an athlete
amo
***** I've heard that as well. I've heard of several football players who have taken ballet lessons.
Questa ballerina mentre balla esprime le sue emozioni e sorride sempre ed è questo il fascino della danza
I love/hate watching amazing dancers that I'll never live to be like.
I feel you :(
You read my mind :(
If you love to dance, they i say go for it! If you have another passion elsewhere, then go for that! You'll never get far watching other people all your life.

Dame Lia Knightridge Thankyou, i needed this :)

If you start late ballet you'll never be a ballerina, you need to start at 11 years old (maximum) or at 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10 years old.

Why would anyone hate this video? Jealousy?
Yep jealousy takes over us all at one pointe haha see the pun pointe instead of point lol I'm so funny
Mariana Dias idk but u r cute :D
May be because of her black tights
The haters are the ones parked on a couch with a teinky in their mouth and more cottage cheese in their thighs than the dairy case
Never to late! Started dancing this year at the age of 21, I love it! Other people in my classes are well over my age as well, we have people from 16 to people in their 30's, 40's and sometimes in their 50's =)
Nine pirouettes after fouettes....! Wow!!!! Lovely
You can see she loves what she is doing, I can just watch in awe and amazement at her skill and grace!

Naomi Shae Don't give up!

Aria Alekzander just became my new favorite ballerina. Thank you for reminding me why I fell in love with ballet.
Wow! This is my inspiration!

What is the music she is dancing to, and where can I find it!??
Movimentos amplos, equilíbrio perfeito... e evidente satisfação ao dançar. Lindo de se ver! Parabéns! 🌷

Mesmerizing! Absolutely beautiful to watch and it's making me so happy.
She makes it seem so easy!
Such poise and beauty. I love the creative additions to classic ballet moves. Best wishes to a long and fruitful career :)
Where is her tutu from?? I love it
It is Capezio's practice tutu! ❤️
She is one of the best turners the ballet world has seen recently.
Amando su forma de bailar, espero que algun dia llegue a ser como ella*_*
The first thing I noticed about her, above anything else, is what a happy ballerina she is. It's contagious.
@ Keiti Kitty- I did the same exact thing as you; started at 5/6 stopped when I was 10, but I picked ballet up again at 14 and I fell in love with it.

Ok =) Thanks for the advice =D
Her smile says it all! Love her!
Does anyone know what kind of pointe shoes she's wearing? They look BEAUTIFUL on her feet.
+Yannie Lee Wow. Really? I never would have guessed! Thanks!
she has a lovely smile!! wonderful. all the ballet documentaries I've watched tend to portray ballet as something that requires so much hard work and dedication (and it definitely does!!) but also somehow super stressed out and almost a bit gloomy....but here it's portrayed in such an uplifting way which is great! :)
She is amazing

she looks so graceful!!
I really want to do ballet but I'm 14 and I don't think you can start from this age
yes you can start at that age
you can start at any age, it's just harder to do it professionally if you start later in life.
yes, its never to late to start doing what you love
You can do Ballet at any age. I think I started ballet when I was 9. If you want to do ballet at 14 you can do it! It just might be a bit difficult. When I began ballet I was not very good at it not flexible, no coordination etc you can do it if you believe in yourself!
I fel the same way but i'm 12................This is my sisters acount :)
Un-believable. Thanks for posting AnaheimBallet. Its great to see these people training. I suppose I never thought of them as humans; they were always just these little bouncy things on a stage somewhere.
Quisiera ser como ella :') ♡
She's actually perfect. So beautiful and so happy.
i'm 15 years old and i really love ballet! But I think that I am too old for this...
What should I do? :/
I'm in the same situation as you :/
I found a school where I live, but I don't know if I should do it or not. I'm 15 as well.
You can start ballet at any age, go for it!! :)
I just started ballet 9 months ago and I'm 15! Just start... I'm so happy that I did the right decision! Ballet is my passion!
I started ballet 3 months ago and I'm 19! I love it so much!!
thank you so much
I've been dancing for 30 years and I have never seen such beautiful legs!!
