Very helpful tips! I am about to Audition for Nutcracker. They said we have to dress in only black leotard and pink tights, nothing personal, nothing bold, bright, flourishes, etc. No make up nor jewelry. My date is Aug 11th. I am in the USA and am an Adult returning Ballet Dancer auditioning for the 1st time in my entire dancing life! At the age of 51!! Lol, huh?! Wish me Luck!! :)
Btw, I GOT IN! As Calvary! WhooHoo! Thank you SO much for your tips! I even got leather split sole flats vs using my dirty crappy canvas ones, for it! :)
I have a ballet audition next week at my company for our annual ballet. It’s not a professional company though. Anyone who auditions is guaranteed a role but I want a lead role so I needed this video. Thanks so much Claudia ❤️💜
could you do a video about hyperextended knees? like exercises and ways you've worked with students who have them naturally? i've been looking online but i'd love to hear what you have to say because this is the most informative channel i've found!
Definitely a CV video, a social media for dancers (seems to be almost a visual CV) AND an exam tips video (particularly for RAD vocational levels). Thx!
Aw, darn. I like canvas shoes. This video was very helpful though! Especially the attitude part--I feel like that could also be really valuable in a dance exam.
Hello Claudia, firstly I just really want to thank you for all those amazing tips. And also if you would do a floor barre, that would help me a lot :). You are awesome, greetings from Czech republic
I have an audition today.. But they do more of contemporary and hip hop so some of the tips don't really work for me.. But it does make me think about what impression I want to give off.. So thank you
Hey Claudia! Thanks for these hacks, they will help me a lot! I'm from Portugal and I really love all of your videos! I started ballet late but I'm determined to get to professional and you are inspiring me! Kisses from Portugal 😘😘
Just noticed this was posted on my birthday! Maybe it's for good luck haha. Thank you so much for these tips! I am auditioning soon and these are super helpful. I am excited!
I watched this last year before one of my auditions for the Nutcracker ( ballet ) and I was very nervous! But I followed all of these tips and guess what! I PASSED THE AUDITIONS! thank you so much ❤️❤️
Hi Claudia, very nice tips! I didn't know that about the left side, it's very good to know. I'll try to remember all of your advices when I have an audition XD
Can you please make a video of how to make a more natural smile for auditions or competitions because I'm not the best at showing are good smile that doesn't look fake. I would really enjoy that!
I always thought wearing satin ribbons on ballet flats would be seen as pretentious, but I completely agree with leather being more professional than canvas. What do you think about the satin ones?
Hello Claudia! Could you do a video on tips for adult beginners? I am 18 and I want to begin ballet again after a long break. strengthening tips to help advance quicker would be great! Also, I am a bit bow-legged so would that affect anything in my ballet training? Thank you.
How do you start with nothing in acting? Like how do you get a resume a headshot and everything you need? And how do you get an acting role and an agent?
Sasha Zoumadakis I'm pretty sure it would be the judges left cuz they are the one marking you anyways.. Hope it helps Even though I'm like a week or two late
About the audition frame of mind. Say the instructor asked for a group of 5 girls and you step forward to show the directors you’re up to give whatever you’re thrown at a go even though you’re not very comfortable with the exercise and you make a few mistakes. Should you still step forward to give it a go or not bother because you’ll make a fool of yourself? Thanks Claudia xxxx
Can i dance in theatre without conservatory? Because in my country aren't good. But i am trainning every day with my teachers two hours and i started at seven.( sorry for my english i am still learning)🖤
Depends on how much support you need. If you have very small breasts you can get away with not wearing a bra, (especially if your leotard is lined) which eliminates the fear of your bra showing. If you really need the support, find a leotard that will cover the “bra area” so that the straps and back won’t show, because they tend to look unprofessional in an audition.
I’m auditioning for four summer intensives soon ahhhh I’m scared the variation I chose for my audition video is super rare but perfect for me:) it’s the butterfly from carnaval see wien you can’t find it on TH-cam :)
I am auditioning for a summer intensive tomorrow. I just realized that I am doing everything wrong! THANK YOU!
Gamer Daily how did it go???

Just a question, but when you say where to stand (front left) do you mean stage right (left to the panel) or stage left (right to the panel)☺️
I am wondering the same thing...my left or the judges left🤔
Sasha Zoumadakis I'm pretty sure it would be the judges left cuz they are the one marking you anyways..
Hope it helps
Even though I'm like a week or two late
thanks for the tips! should i go to the judges left or my left?
What colours would you suggest for a darker skin colour?
Thanks for the help!

Thank you! I would really enjoy suggestions about the resume 😉
I have my first audition this Saturday and it’s for the nutcracker wish me luck
What would I do if I have to pin back my bangs? How do I make that look natural?
Is clear lipgloss good for auditions, becuase it’s very neutral
It would be great to see tips for CV! thanks
I have short hair (shoulder length), what should I do with my hair, it’s too short to do a high bun.?
About the audition frame of mind. Say the instructor asked for a group of 5 girls and you step forward to show the directors you’re up to give whatever you’re thrown at a go even though you’re not very comfortable with the exercise and you make a few mistakes. Should you still step forward to give it a go or not bother because you’ll make a fool of yourself? Thanks Claudia xxxx

and if I'm midium skin tone then I can get away with all colors?
I have a question about what to wear in an audition. I’m not sure what to do about the bra department
Linda M good question!!!!
Depends on how much support you need. If you have very small breasts you can get away with not wearing a bra, (especially if your leotard is lined) which eliminates the fear of your bra showing. If you really need the support, find a leotard that will cover the “bra area” so that the straps and back won’t show, because they tend to look unprofessional in an audition.
i have an audition for college on the 29th
Can you also make a video of how our back and shoulders should be? 💙
I’m auditioning for four summer intensives soon ahhhh I’m scared the variation I chose for my audition video is super rare but perfect for me:) it’s the butterfly from carnaval see wien you can’t find it on TH-cam :)
When you say to go to the left, do you mean the audience’s left or stage left?
Stage left
