In school I’m a teacher’s pet so loads of teachers like me but in dance they care about me and my singing teacher is like a friend sometimes but my ballet teacher thinks I’m ok.
In my ballet school, the ballet 4 and ballet 5 girls are put in the same class, and everyone gets the choreography immediately and I’m just there blankminded not knowing what I’m doing
My teacher is definitely the laid back one. It makes the class super fun though, because she's always telling funny stories. I'm not in any top notch ballet studio or anything. It's just a local studio, but it's super fun.
I went to a local studio and quit ballet because she was the strictest teacher and made you do 30 push-ups if you were one minute late. My grandma is always late soo... she made it so boring. Most of the girls were in middle school and i was in 3rd grade.
That’s what my teacher does every single week! She doesn’t even let us mark it, she says the combination then we have to memorize it and perfect it in once chance.
I go to a strictly Vaganova-based Russian ballet school. I have one teacher that is extremely strict like that, but will yell at us in a thick accent or in Russian. Thank goodness I have another Russian teacher who is strict, but much more laid back. The slightest mistake on your port de bras, and you are done with the strict one.
I have a ballet teacher that never shows up and treats us like five year olds in choreography but she thinks that we can’t memorize a combinations. The teacher that normally teaches us has ya never do barre but we do choreography for the whole class
Wow! You would never do barre? Barre is important to warm up your body and to perfect basic technique, My point teacher says that she’s only ever seen one person be horrible a barre and be perfect in the center and she says that it’s like really important to do barre work
Maybe you could do also the teacher, who sponsor one person in the class the most and put this person always in the spot🙄 And the teacher who talks the half of the time in class about his life Or the teacher who can‘t explain
@idk yet they wouldn't neccesarily say we were fat, or needed to lose weight, but they would tell us not to eat certain foods etc, not to let our bellies stick out, and if they saw us / heard about us eating say.. Popcorn, dessert, or candy, (before class / while on break) they'd comment or give us those judging eyes. Before holiday season, they'd talk to us about not eating too much turkey, bread, or dessert. I remember getting praised more when I lost weight, (praised on my tequnique, and had recieved more attention in general the more I lost) but weight like,, the number we were, was never discussed. We weren't weighed, or told.we were "fat" But the skinner ones, were definetly praised more. I suffered from eating disorders (Anorexia, leading into Bulimia) from age 15-21. So I suffered a lot due to it. Ballet was very traumatic for me, and even friends I've spoken to recently agree it was traumatising.
One of the teachers at my studio is a strict teacher but will also talk half the time about something random once she gets started on something. I don't hate her but shes definitely my least favorite teacher. She will just talk about something random for 20 minutes and we will all just be standing there waiting for her to continue class. She also scares me because I feel like the slightest mistake will make her yell at me and single me out. I know that kind of tough love can make you a more focused student, but a lot of the time I just feel like she hates me since she will give me only negative feedback.
My teacher is the confusing combinations one, when she does it with us it looks fine but still weird then when we are doing it with her she changes like 3 steps while we are doing it 😂
I am a combo of the first three, depending on the day. Sometimes I can tell the students can be pushed and like the stricter class to apply lots of corrections, sometimes they've had a hard day or it's the end of the week and they need simpler, fun combos, and sometimes I just have total brain fog and have weird combinations. I feel so bad about those, but they happen. :) Overall, super relatable and totally hilarious!
My teacher is laid back with a hint of forgetting combos. Like her combos aren’t hard but sometimes she doesn’t understand her own notes and has to run through it in her head first while we stand and wait 😂 but mostly she’s laid back and she’s super funny and always tells us stories and stuff
My teacher always yells my name at me but it’s always in a joking laughing sort of way. Sometimes it means I did well and other times-most of the time- it means I didn’t go fast enough in my pirouettes.
“the one who teaches the same class” welcome to syllabus folks i do syllabus class, and personally, i love it. we do do an open class, and i honestly just don’t enjoy it as much as syllabus class, because i’m focusing more on getting the exercise right, but with syllabus, i can really focus on my technique because i don’t really have to focus on the setting. anyway, that’s just my opinion :)
Yeah i do this one too to perfect my technique it also takes me a few days of doing the same routine to get it because it's challenging, and after that I repeat the same class everyday sometimes for a week or more depending on whether I'm doing it perfect or not, sometimes i just keep doing it until it's perfect then i take on a new routine and start the whole cycle again
I have the same ballet and tap teacher every week but she seems to be able to find something new to do every week. With a consistent dance teacher they know what the class needs to improve so personally I prefer it. Also you can be a lot more involved if you know how they teach the class.
before i got on pointe, we had a teacher (i was like seven) and she expected us to do all of our splits, and if we didn't she would sit on our shoulders until we were in a split, one girl didn't come back because she was scared of her and she wasn't as flexible. she is now fired.
the teacher who is scared to give corrections because she does not want to be 'mean'. like the class could flop over, sickle their feet and screw the dance up and she would be like 'okay very nice, i am so proud, just remember to try your best'
I love my ballet teacher because she’s kind of strict but like not always and always gives helpful corrections without like being rude and gives you compliments if you do stuff good and she’s also really nice
I love a ballet teacher who sets clear and realistic requirements to students, and who gives corrections that actually work for me :)) I really miss my old ballet teacher! She is elegant and observing, and she not only tells me what isn't working, she will also tell me how I can improve.
My ballet teacher gives us such simple things and makes such easy combinations and gives us so much time to go through it and says stuff like “I knows this is SUPER HARD so you get 10 hours to work on it” now I’m starting to miss my strict teacher who stopped working at my dance studio bc we weren’t good enough...
my teacher is literally a mix of all of these. like she is rlly strict but also a rlly nice person? and since she teaches us every day we keep our combinations for a week. she also does super confusing combination but wer’e rlly used to it by now :D
The thing about dress codes is funny because at my dance school they don’t give a crap we will have our hair down with earrings and anklets and all that jazz (heh I do jazz dance) they won’t even notice
the strict teacher was so accurate, she has favorites but atleast her favorites are actually really good only wear black, like ever she has made even the best girls at my studio cry sometimes she walks into another class to talk to a different teacher and i immediately just ✨panic✨ i dont have the strict teacher, but my teacher is a combination of the laid-back & the confusing lmao combination hahah
In the uk when we are learning grades we do the same exercises each week for the exam, but I go to a performing arts college and I prefer doing different each week cause then I actually have to think about it more and I feel like I’m learning more 💜
Join the club. The difference is which exam board you dance for, RAD is all set and means that everything is exactly the same. On the other hand, ISTD has a mixture of set and free work which allows for a bit more freedom but still with focus on technique and perfection. I prefer ISTD personally :)
the one who LOVES adagio and does like 4 adagio combos the one who has the super complicated combos BUT acts like they're really easy the one who gives really hard barre combos and then makes you do everything in center the one who picks favorites the one who picks people to ignore (for no reason) I could literally think of like 20! lol
Keep strong. Dont forget that despite the struggles in this world, God is full of justice, mercy and love. Justice said we broke His perfect law - causing the world's previous perfection to be destroyed - and therefore we deserve Hell (like a punishment in any legal system but this is eternal as His perfect law is eternal too). Don't think you fit in that category? Ever done one of these?: lying, stealing - regardless of how small the object EVER, hating others - which is murder in God's perfect law, lusting (plus God sees our entire thought life). Justice says "the soul that sins shall die" - if we break one in thought/word/deed it's as if we're guilty of all of them. Quite simply, living by the law (which is doing everything perfectly) is impossible for sinful humans . The law shows us that 1. We will die in Hell if we fail to follow it and 2. We cannot save ourselves BUT, 3. God's perfect, immovable law points us to Christ, who followed and fulfilled the law in thought, word and deed perfectly in our place. He did what we couldn't and did it on our behalf. He was then sentenced to death on a cross, and took our personal punishment for our sin, paying our penalty (like paying our fine) completely FOR us, and has given us freedom. If we turn from the sins we have committed and repent (pursue the opposite direction of love through Christ) He will, overtime, recreate us back into that previously perfect image through The Holy Spirit which Jesus sends to all who accept Him as their personal Lord and Savior of their life. He will help us through the struggle, the stress, and anything we experience in the world. It's about letting Christ in to guide and teach you and obeying Him through His power (not ourselves, we need Him to help us as it's impossible without depending on His power and instruction). He is our substitute in His life, death and resurrection. He essentially rewrote history in our place so that, if you believe in Him, it will be as if you had never sinned if you accept Christ's death as our own in our place. He is in Heaven right now preparing a place for us so that He can take His faithful, believing children home with Him when He returns. He will ressurrect us from death when He returns, giving mercy to those who accept His love, instruction and teachings in their life, and give justice to those who refuse it. He doesn't want ANY of us to go to Hell and die for continuing in evil and rejecting His way to life, thats why He died FOR us. Hes giving EVERYONE a chance, He wants everyone to take the free gift of salvation from Hell. He wants us to be His and begin to follow His life of love and service through His power and abiding (staying) with Him. So long as we keep our hearts near to Christ through His strength, strive to follow His will of perfect love revealed in the Bible, and let Him lead in the midst of (very certain) pitfalls and struggles, we will, in time, win the ultimate victory over sin, pain and DEATH through Christ. Even if you are willing to be made willing, pray for Jesus to come in and He will do what we can't. Give us The Holy Spirit who will guide us in the right way. Christ says in John 16:33: I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace. In the world you have tribulation and distress and suffering, but be courageous [be confident, be undaunted, be filled with joy]; I have overcome the world.” [My conquest is accomplished, My victory abiding.] - (AMPLIFIED version) NOTE: You are NEVER too sinful or messed up that God cannot turn your life around through Jesus. EVER. Regardless of what you've done or what you're going through you CAN make it through Jesus. If you have any questions let me know xx x
does anyone else have the teacher who has a favorite in every different class, but is ALWAYS changing; like the favor on the student for the class one week but not the next?????? she should do that one! and the one who actually chooses favorites!!...........or wait, the one who talks abt random crap that no one cares abt or the one who is young(er) and does stuff but talks with the students and sometimes the class get CRAZY!!! ❤❤😂😂❤❤😂😂
I had a teacher who was just like the first one, and she literally made me HATE dancing for a while and I would come home crying after every class, and then I realized I don’t need her approval to know I’m a good dancer hehe. (Ps, I had another teacher who is literally the second one, and I love her so much haha)
we love it when your doing a confusing combo, but you think you have it, then the teacher says it wrong when your doing it then yells at you for doing it wrong when your actually right lol
Both of my teachers had these 'nameless russian ballet teachers' in college. We don't know if it was the same teachers or what, but my favorite theory is that they were wives.
My main teacher is like a combination of the strict one and the laid back one. Absolutely love her. Our supply teacher ist the complete opposite, she's the one with confusing combinations. 😂
I had this one teacher who knew her stuff, would tel, us cool stories, still could give us corrections, and was so funny was just the absolute best person
My ballet teacher is definitely the laid-back one.. she still gives correction, she’s super funny and tells stories and sometimes uses some fun songs for our combos! I dance in a local ballet studio so, yea, been dancing with them for 6 years! love them sm
I like when a teacher gives the same warm ups, like plies or another beginning movement. Just gets your body working without having to think much about it!
and i kinda like when the teacher give the same class, like not for the whole year but the same for 4/5 weeks, it helps to focus on the mistakes you made the classes before and not be too focus on remembering the combinations, one of my teacher does that and it's honestly pretty great! but he does expect us to know everything for sure
Great video. I'll share this. I've had 20 ballet teachers in 13 years and only 2 are really nice. Your strict teacher was so accurate! Definitely the funniest. You forgot The Teacher Who Has Favorites, though. Had so many of those in my lifetime. There are two types of 'favorite' student in a class. There's the Malicious Favorite, whom everyone knows. Then there's the Hardworking Favorite, who is liked by the teacher because s/he is the only one who pays attention and makes the teacher's life easier.
I attend a pre-professional ballet school and we do the same class! We do new class work every three weeks and we do that class work 5 times a weeks for a 2 hour class. It is really important for technique and strength! Repetition is important. Love this video Kenzie!
I am a gymnast and I had a coach that just said “don’t even try” after a few minutes. She also said my skills were ugly and she didn’t want to coach me. It made me lose interest and confidence
Thank you so much! I actually moved gyms, but didn’t know that the coach was actually doing coach abuse until I watched this other gymnasts video on coach abuse. I am in a better place now and I’m starting to love gymnastics again. Maybe you should look somewhere else, and it’s ok to cry, and trust me this is not ok my coach was really mean and unencouraging
My favourite teacher is a laid back teacher but also gives lots of corrections she encourages me to improve. I've only been doing adult ballet for 8 months & have another teacher that asks for developpe at 45 degrees but demonstrates at 120 degrees (she's a professional ballerina) & these are absolute beginner classes I take with her. She's just an OTT teacher when she demonstrates 😁
i had a teacher that did the same barre every week (same music too!) and it really helped me focus on my technique since i didn't have to worry about the steps! but if it was more than once a week, i would have probably lost my mind haha!
OMG!! I have have teacher who's really chill!! She's really nice and is the best teacher ever!! I've also had a teacher like the strict and the one who does the same thing every single time!! It was the same person and one of my best friends left the studio because of that teacher, it was literally so sad!
My teacher is almost like she’s a student with us,she teaches us but does everything with us,of course she doesn’t do the dances with us on stage but during practice,at the same time she is very laid back.
Ooo I have one teacher that like knows everything. If anything hurts or doesn’t feel right, we go to her and she tells us how to fix it. She’s really cool and helpful. I also have another teacher that is very relatable and always relates to all of us which is very refreshing and creates a safe environment.
My contemporary teacher is sooooo nice. We did like a parent teacher conference and she said that she tears up when she watches me dance. In ballet my teacher does anything but that lol.
I'd say my teacher is laid back, but she also gives precious corrections Also, could you pleeease film a tutorial on how to improve balance and stability?
I LOVE THE LEOTARDS THEY ARE SO CUTE!!!!! My ballet teacher is exactly how you showed a strict teacher and she won’t allow any other colour leotard unfortunately so I can not get most of your leotards but I think I will look into the black bat one! Your an amazing dancer keep up the awesome work!
The teacher I have on Monday is DEFINITELY the laid back one who still gives nice corrections. The teacher I have on Wednesday is the most strict teacher ever and she definitely has such confusing combinations but she always remembers. Also I am like 11 years old so I just go to a ballet studio and don't have anything huge and special
when we start working on our exams we tend to start doing the same thing every class to memorize the combinations and to Improve on all of them but she always throws in some free stuff that she made. (I also make my own ballet stuff when I'm bored)
I like my teacher because our class switches every two weeks or so. It’s enough time to master the exercises, but it’s a short bough time that they don’t get too boring.
laid back teachers who still give corrections are the BEST
Yesss!!
My formers teachers were like that
Yep that's my teacher!
That’s mine! #Blessed😂
My teacher is like that
When she said “why are you asking to go to the bathroom, you don’t need to ask, just go” that hit a core memory😂 like “is this a trap.......”
i go to two studios and that’s the teachers at one studio but the other studio is completely the opposite 😂
@@8michelleh why do you go to two studios. 🤔
@Madison Friederichs I hate that!! I’m always like, “soooo was that a yes or a no???”
You missed the most important one!!! The teacher that chooses favourites! 😩
Edit: OMG Thank you sooo much for all the likes and replies!!
"Be more like *so and so *! Girls why can't you be more like *so and so*??" With big heart eyes 😍 like.. Gee
Ya
In school I’m a teacher’s pet so loads of teachers like me but in dance they care about me and my singing teacher is like a friend sometimes but my ballet teacher thinks I’m ok.
Luckily I am the favorite but the other girls don’t like me that much 😬
@@clovers282 😳
teacher: you guys have that?
students: (don’t have it) mhmm
In my ballet school, the ballet 4 and ballet 5 girls are put in the same class, and everyone gets the choreography immediately and I’m just there blankminded not knowing what I’m doing
That also sounds like math class
My teacher is definitely the laid back one. It makes the class super fun though, because she's always telling funny stories. I'm not in any top notch ballet studio or anything. It's just a local studio, but it's super fun.

SAMEEE my teacher always starts the class with some rly hilarious story that makes us cry laugh for like 10 minutes and we waste time but it’s amazing
Mine is pretty far away
Once I had a teacher at an intensive who marked the combination once and expected us to know it... that was a stressful week.
how did you manage it?
@@AiriArcoIris I had to be totally focused! It was a really good experience though because now I can learn combos very fast :)
That’s what my teacher does every single week! She doesn’t even let us mark it, she says the combination then we have to memorize it and perfect it in once chance.
that’s kinda what my teacher does it’s so bad
@@paige1751 yikes... that's rough
Why do I just know my teacher is DEFINITELY in here😂
THE STRICT TEACHER WAS SO ACCURATE THOUGH- girl ur acting as well ;))
#RussianBalletTeacher
If I had a teacher like that I’d tell them off a lot✨
@@I.love.chease lol good luck with that 😂
@@I.love.chease Yea hun only if you want to be kicked out of class or stuck in the back during the performance

Elora S. I agree
you should find a different school or teacher if your never doing barre :( that’s not professional and is a sign of poor training!
Oof rip switch studios sis
6:26
Person: How much do you want to confuse everyone?
"Teacher": yes.
Maybe you could do also the teacher, who sponsor one person in the class the most and put this person always in the spot🙄
And the teacher who talks the half of the time in class about his life
Or the teacher who can‘t explain
Had one who ate cake and snacks / was overweight, but constantly critiqued our weight
@idk yet oh absolutely agreed!
@idk yet they wouldn't neccesarily say we were fat, or needed to lose weight, but they would tell us not to eat certain foods etc, not to let our bellies stick out, and if they saw us / heard about us eating say.. Popcorn, dessert, or candy, (before class / while on break) they'd comment or give us those judging eyes. Before holiday season, they'd talk to us about not eating too much turkey, bread, or dessert.

I’m glad I’m not the only ballet teacher here. 😂 I also related to the first three- maybe I have split personality teacher disorder.
There has never been a comment I relate with more than this one.
Ummm AMEN. I am definitely a combo of the first 3 teachers. Glad I'm not the only one.
Ikr omg!
So sorry. thought i was replying to another comment😬

Are you in my dance class, that is exactly what my teacher does! We get almost nothing done because her daughter is in my class as well :)
That’s exactly my teacher,especially forgetting the combos lol
SAME
Samee
my teacher was the strict teacher, i missed a class and she wouldn't call me by my name for like the next month
Was her name Abby lee miller? Lol
@Camilla Evaline
I thought the same thing
My teacher always yells my name at me but it’s always in a joking laughing sort of way. Sometimes it means I did well and other times-most of the time- it means I didn’t go fast enough in my pirouettes.

The strict ballet teacher who dresses like a ninja is so accurate 😩
the teacher who teaches a lot of classes and expects you to be perfect it what all my teachers are mostly like it was the perfect example
That first one is literally the definition of my ballet teacher. Also the outfit in the first one is on point 🤣😂
My ballet teacher is like all types in one person😂

What the heck the acting here was EN POINTE bahhahha
Lol love the pun. 🤣
You forgot the zen teacher 😂 I’ve had those and they’re all about improv, modern, your feelings and a really long cool down/reverance
the one who LOVES adagio and does like 4 adagio combos
the one who has the super complicated combos BUT acts like they're really easy
the one who gives really hard barre combos and then makes you do everything in center
the one who picks favorites
the one who picks people to ignore (for no reason)
I could literally think of like 20! lol
Oof I had a teacher that did like 7 grande allegros. I mean they were fun but always confusing and long.

If we turn from the sins we have committed and repent (pursue the opposite direction of love through Christ) He will, overtime, recreate us back into that previously perfect image through The Holy Spirit which Jesus sends to all who accept Him as their personal Lord and Savior of their life. He will help us through the struggle, the stress, and anything we experience in the world. It's about letting Christ in to guide and teach you and obeying Him through His power (not ourselves, we need Him to help us as it's impossible without depending on His power and instruction).
He is our substitute in His life, death and resurrection. He essentially rewrote history in our place so that, if you believe in Him, it will be as if you had never sinned if you accept Christ's death as our own in our place.
He is in Heaven right now preparing a place for us so that He can take His faithful, believing children home with Him when He returns. He will ressurrect us from death when He returns, giving mercy to those who accept His love, instruction and teachings in their life, and give justice to those who refuse it.
He doesn't want ANY of us to go to Hell and die for continuing in evil and rejecting His way to life, thats why He died FOR us. Hes giving EVERYONE a chance, He wants everyone to take the free gift of salvation from Hell. He wants us to be His and begin to follow His life of love and service through His power and abiding (staying) with Him. So long as we keep our hearts near to Christ through His strength, strive to follow His will of perfect love revealed in the Bible, and let Him lead in the midst of (very certain) pitfalls and struggles, we will, in time, win the ultimate victory over sin, pain and DEATH through Christ. Even if you are willing to be made willing, pray for Jesus to come in and He will do what we can't. Give us The Holy Spirit who will guide us in the right way.
Christ says in John 16:33: I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace. In the world you have tribulation and distress and suffering, but be courageous [be confident, be undaunted, be filled with joy]; I have overcome the world.” [My conquest is accomplished, My victory abiding.]
- (AMPLIFIED version)
NOTE: You are NEVER too sinful or messed up that God cannot turn your life around through Jesus. EVER. Regardless of what you've done or what you're going through you CAN make it through Jesus.
If you have any questions let me know xx

does anyone else have the teacher who has a favorite in every different class, but is ALWAYS changing; like the favor on the student for the class one week but not the next?????? she should do that one! and the one who actually chooses favorites!!...........or wait, the one who talks abt random crap that no one cares abt or the one who is young(er) and does stuff but talks with the students and sometimes the class get CRAZY!!! ❤❤😂😂❤❤😂😂
O ye my teachers like 25 and she’s so laid back and I love her
I had a teacher who was just like the first one, and she literally made me HATE dancing for a while and I would come home crying after every class, and then I realized I don’t need her approval to know I’m a good dancer hehe.
(Ps, I had another teacher who is literally the second one, and I love her so much haha)
we love it when your doing a confusing combo, but you think you have it, then the teacher says it wrong when your doing it then yells at you for doing it wrong when your actually right lol
Lmao @ the crazy combination teacher. Mine would always say "wait what did i do just there?" And look confused too while trying to remember.
Both of my teachers had these 'nameless russian ballet teachers' in college. We don't know if it was the same teachers or what, but my favorite theory is that they were wives.
I promise that is not a strict teacher. I’ve had teachers where I cried for every class for years.
That's the brutal teacher
Most of my teachers are the ones who forget the combination. But the chill ones are the best.
My main teacher is like a combination of the strict one and the laid back one. Absolutely love her. Our supply teacher ist the complete opposite, she's the one with confusing combinations. 😂
I had this one teacher who knew her stuff, would tel, us cool stories, still could give us corrections, and was so funny was just the absolute best person
My teacher is the one that spends half the class telling jokes and (lovingly) makes fun of everybody.
I have a ballet teacher that is a combo of all of these but she is honestly the best ballet teacher ever Love you Ms.Terri!!!
My ballet teacher is definitely the laid-back one.. she still gives correction, she’s super funny and tells stories and sometimes uses some fun songs for our combos! I dance in a local ballet studio so, yea, been dancing with them for 6 years! love them sm
The teacher with confusing combos is like, every ballet class for me lol
The teacher we always have as our substitute is the laid back teacher (gives corrections but not too many and constantly smiling)
We literally did almost that exact pirouette combination
You forgot the teacher who Very obviously has a favorite
I like when a teacher gives the same warm ups, like plies or another beginning movement. Just gets your body working without having to think much about it!
Love this type of video!!! Here’s another type of teacher:
The one who only pays attention to their favorite.
1:26 So Kenzie goes to the same dance studio I go to. She probably doesn’t know me, but I have a feeling she took Mr Keith’s class.
I kinda like strict teachers. They make me better. And their kinda funny 😄
My teachers are a perfect mix between the strict teacher and the laid back teacher 😁 love u Kenzie!! ❤️
Growing up I had the laid back teachers and when I hit up studios in LA I was SHOOK by the strict teachers. Accurate
and i kinda like when the teacher give the same class, like not for the whole year but the same for 4/5 weeks, it helps to focus on the mistakes you made the classes before and not be too focus on remembering the combinations, one of my teacher does that and it's honestly pretty great! but he does expect us to know everything for sure
Great video. I'll share this. I've had 20 ballet teachers in 13 years and only 2 are really nice. Your strict teacher was so accurate! Definitely the funniest. You forgot The Teacher Who Has Favorites, though. Had so many of those in my lifetime.
There are two types of 'favorite' student in a class. There's the Malicious Favorite, whom everyone knows. Then there's the Hardworking Favorite, who is liked by the teacher because s/he is the only one who pays attention and makes the teacher's life easier.
OMG! I am literally dealing with a super strict teacher right now and how you said you were treated it how I am being treated! TWINZZZ
i like to think i'm laidback with a bit of confusing combos 😌 ty for what you said about ballet teachers at the end! you're so sweet!
I attend a pre-professional ballet school and we do the same class! We do new class work every three weeks and we do that class work 5 times a weeks for a 2 hour class. It is really important for technique and strength! Repetition is important. Love this video Kenzie!
Bro the one with the confusing combos is so accurate ong like they be confusing themselves 💀💀
I am a gymnast and I had a coach that just said “don’t even try” after a few minutes. She also said my skills were ugly and she didn’t want to coach me. It made me lose interest and confidence
Thank you so much! I actually moved gyms, but didn’t know that the coach was actually doing coach abuse until I watched this other gymnasts video on coach abuse. I am in a better place now and I’m starting to love gymnastics again. Maybe you should look somewhere else, and it’s ok to cry, and trust me this is not ok my coach was really mean and unencouraging
My favourite teacher is a laid back teacher but also gives lots of corrections she encourages me to improve. I've only been doing adult ballet for 8 months & have another teacher that asks for developpe at 45 degrees but demonstrates at 120 degrees (she's a professional ballerina) & these are absolute beginner classes I take with her. She's just an OTT teacher when she demonstrates 😁
I love watching your vids I’m currently doing jazz acro ballet classical hip hop
Lmao that strict teacher ALWAYS wears a turtleneck tho 😂
I has this one teacher that when you asked the time she would go “why do you need the time, why do you want to leave” and then she would kick them out
i had a teacher that did the same barre every week (same music too!) and it really helped me focus on my technique since i didn't have to worry about the steps! but if it was more than once a week, i would have probably lost my mind haha!
I like the stricter ones cuz they made me better
My ballet teacher is like something in between the strict teacher and the laid back teacher
OMG!! I have have teacher who's really chill!! She's really nice and is the best teacher ever!! I've also had a teacher like the strict and the one who does the same thing every single time!! It was the same person and one of my best friends left the studio because of that teacher, it was literally so sad!
My teacher is almost like she’s a student with us,she teaches us but does everything with us,of course she doesn’t do the dances with us on stage but during practice,at the same time she is very laid back.
Ooo I have one teacher that like knows everything. If anything hurts or doesn’t feel right, we go to her and she tells us how to fix it. She’s really cool and helpful. I also have another teacher that is very relatable and always relates to all of us which is very refreshing and creates a safe environment.
Loving the video so far!
My contemporary teacher is sooooo nice. We did like a parent teacher conference and she said that she tears up when she watches me dance. In ballet my teacher does anything but that lol.
LOL....your red hair and attitude as the 'strict teacher' gave me flash backs to Susan Trevino in my childhood, good job
my teacher is the laid back teacher she is so nice and she’s also a family friend so I love her a lot
I'd say my teacher is laid back, but she also gives precious corrections
Also, could you pleeease film a tutorial on how to improve balance and stability?
my ballet teachers give compliments and listen to the students and stuff, but tell everyone to focus at the same time so i think thats good
the strict one gave me SUCH war flashbacks lmao the "why aren't you in dress code, you may as well sit out or not come at all" takes me WAY back
I have the same ballet teacher everyday , but we get a new class every two weeks and she seems to find new exercises every day to add to the class !
I LOVE THE LEOTARDS THEY ARE SO CUTE!!!!! My ballet teacher is exactly how you showed a strict teacher and she won’t allow any other colour leotard unfortunately so I can not get most of your leotards but I think I will look into the black bat one! Your an amazing dancer keep up the awesome work!
My ballet teacher is a combination of nice and confusing.
When the strict teacher called warm ups junk I felt that😂
Okay but her acting like a strict teacher was really good cause it gave me goosebumps lol 😂
My teacher is the laid back one. And my teacher is amazing. And so is Mackenzie!😃
When you started on the one with the confusing combos I had fLASHBACKS
The teacher I have on Monday is DEFINITELY the laid back one who still gives nice corrections. The teacher I have on Wednesday is the most strict teacher ever and she definitely has such confusing combinations but she always remembers. Also I am like 11 years old so I just go to a ballet studio and don't have anything huge and special
Love how in the mirror you can just see her talking to the chair 😂🤠
when we start working on our exams we tend to start doing the same thing every class to memorize the combinations and to Improve on all of them but she always throws in some free stuff that she made. (I also make my own ballet stuff when I'm bored)
I like my teacher because our class switches every two weeks or so. It’s enough time to master the exercises, but it’s a short bough time that they don’t get too boring.
My mom is a ballet teacher, and shes definitely a strict teacher. She once made me cry in her own class.
