[0520sophiag]

[orcagirlred]

[DearyEdna]

[ja3135]

its not fake!!! WOWW! great!

[amelinegoh99]

i only can do a double and i am in grade 5 RAD :O

[SuperKleinen]

@amelinegoh99 what is the average age for grade 5 RAD ??

[dancingshrimp322]

i did two clean quadruples in class today and freaked out. and then i watched this. depressing.

[KiwiHorseProductions]

Abs, much?

[TheWooHooism]

Is it easier to do it this en pointe? But either way, soooo jealous! Her little ending thing was so cute! <3

[NinjaTree6]

@TheWooHooism i think it's easier to do pirouettes in pointe shoes. you have a solid platform of silk-covered shoe, it sometimes reduces the amount of friction that you would otherwise feel with a slipper made of leather or canvas. balance and alignment is key here. if you can hold a perfect balance for 8 counts, theoretically you should be able to hold it for 8 pirouettes.

[briannaamazing]

Lovely lovely lovely <3

[OnWeMove]

O_o I'm gonna go hide in a hole now...

[annajane1111]

Damn your amazing! I can't believe that other dancers are desperate enough to edit their pirouette videos! Thank you Aly!

[SuperS800]

She makes it looks so easy! Wish it WAS that easy. sob!

[sugarplum2403]

wow!!! :)

[FJDAfamily]

That I was AMAZING! I can just barely do a double! WOW!

[VioletCalliope]

@FJDAfamily i can do a triple

[ShinyJewels04]

watching stuff like this makes me feel jealous and insignificant. MY DANCE CAREER IS A LIE</3

and that was fantastic, btw(:

[Jennicasin]

Ok, I suck :-(

[Kidgirl13]

Was she on pointe? Was she wearing pointe shoes? I couldn't tell but, those were amazing with from what I saw, perfect form! Great job!

[aapricot816]

@Kidgirl13 Yes she was en pointe.

[meggygym]

Bravo tu es très forte :)

[laoleahma]

wow =] is all i can say.

[dancerbutt30303vlogs]

She's just doing her turns like, "Oh hey guys, this is easy...." =)

[Esprit6]

I love her smile at the end, as if she's saying "Yay I did it!"

[chellebelle444]

Ahh! I feel horrible compared to her!

[hides811]

beautiful!!



[dancer8164]

dafuq why is she so good.

[danceisawesome5]

NICE IOB !!!!:-)

[balletdancergirl]

wow i thought my singles were coll:( but reallygood arches

[da1anonle]

wow...well SHE's gonna be famous.

[BiggestOrphanFan]

my pointe shoes kills me! 

[Thebaddancer1]

omg!? i suck

[valavanderal]

She has such beautiful control of the turns once she is mounted on pointe. In the first set she cheats her first turn by turning in and doing a slide up mount, and ONLY pulls off 5. The second time, she is much better on the preparation, she does "wind up" a bit with her arms, but for 8 turns, who wouldn't? It seems she has an amazing center of balance. As she grows up, and fills out into a mature dancer it will be interesting to see if she can still maintain this clarity of technique

[OfGreenTea]

And I thought it was hard to do 4. O_O

[frapuchinocaramel]

I suck!

[kristirhong]

@frapuchinocaramel Lol I do too!

[xdancergirlx01]

@pinkstarburst131 being thin comes with ballet, and she's probably naturally skinny too.

[theamazingsoter]

26 people can only do 8 pirouettes on a turning board.

[NatNatBye]

impressive i cant even do that im not a ballarina...

[MajesticTOASTER]

Wtf? I thought I was cool when I could finally do a triple. D:

[mercythecall]

@MajesticTOASTER haahh me too!(:

[katklub]

@MajesticTOASTER Don't worry, she's asian

[butlikereally]

what studio do you go to! this is beautiful.

[YungDivas5189]

dangs she so skinny but great

[SitnDynamite]

I can do 6 jazz pirouettes :c but they don't look as perfect as ballet....

[peacelovepageants48]

en pionte 2!

[TheGabster28]

That. Is. Insanity.

[tooskyblue]

Beautiful.!!!!!!

[haileejo17]

i can do 3 thts all

[dnysyd]

@GnatSprat123 dont worry some of the greatest ballerinas cant do that many pirouettes and yet they can still be amazing. its really okay, not everyone is an amazing turner. and thats coming from the heart and personal experience!!

[GnatSprat123]

guys i can do three pirouettes on a good day. and not even on pointe

[dominiquesdelights]

@GnatSprat123 i hearddd that



[rxxxxxxxxxxr]

WOAAHHHHHHHHHHH I CAN'T EVEN DO ONE :(

[primaballerinaninja]

SOOOOOOOOOOOOO AMAZING! I WISH I COULD DO THIS!

[Cerisehercul]

Wooahoo!!!! AMAZING! =D

[kaylababexxo]

lol when u dance all the time like she does u get that skinny dance is hard work for alll u ppl that think it so easy

[DelaneyLUV101]

Um may I just say JEALOUS!!!

[CrazyForDance98]

She makes it look so easy

[peacelovecheer3898]

ah it makes me cringe to see her do that in those shoes lol

[alannathelioness1]

gee im glad with ONE pirouette on pointe.... I'd be bouncing off walls if i got eight!!!!!!

[dance9passion]

wow , she´s really good. nearly perfect

[Natiree]

14 and on point! WOW! she must have gotten enrolled wen she was really young!

[redmarker820]

@Natiree there are many girls who go on pointe around 11...i know a lot who started around 9 or ten..its all about ankle and core strength....

[realnewsgirl]

@Natiree i started pointe when i was 10(:

[MrIlovefishies]

my mind can not comprehend this. she is so amazing. i can barely do one piroutte and i've been in dance for four years. i fail.

[RoseBrilliante]

@MrIlovefishies Lol, I've been dancing for just over 10 years now and I can barely do two xD Guess it's off to pilates I go...

[KKJSinas]

where does she go?

[olgafre]

Perfect!

[foreverdancing26]

I always found pirouettes on pointe to be the most impressive things. Great!

[candyismythang]

Damn!!!!! She is good!!

[tatekylie]

she is amazing i wish i could do that i can only do 4 at the most!

[buggygal21]

so beautifully effortless- bravo, ally

[toastmybread123]

I love how she spots. It's so perfect!

[medlehgro]

[hannahtom12]

[crazydancergirl12]

[HorsesandPointeShoes]

[lpkidd17]

[Madyyyy15]

[Themaynah]

6 and 7 pirrouetts

[Cerisehercul]

I just say OH MY GOD!

[LiveDanceeLove]

amazing!!! she acts like that was nothing! i remember when i got 5 i was like jumping around and screaming like a lunitic! lol

[FLdlV]

she does them like she's playing in the park!!! it's like nothing's happening



[luvyduvycella]

Great beautiful job well done!

I used to be that skinny as a child too and I always stuffed my face, don't listen to the mean skinny comments.

[MSSsssMMs]

she's amazing.....

[xxoogossipgirl]

so, where does the force come from to do something like that? i can do about two lol. but how do you keep spinning? i need someone to explain this, pleeeeasseee :)

[Sweetiebea]

@xxoogossipgirl

The power comes from the preparatory positioning, and the arm positioning. If you look very closely her arms come in slowly, and smoothly using centripetal force to continue the motion. Also she has VERY good posture and balance making it easier to stay in the turn because she is not psyching herself out about falling. She also is spotting(focusing on one particular spot to keep from becoming too dizzy).

[MayDevereux18]

i love neo classical



[orangeluv022]

really good! hopefully i'll be this good soon :)

[penguinsReatingmybra]

WOW thats amazing i could never do that but she still needs to work on her arms a LOT.

[222TheBee]

BBBEAUTIFUL so so so so perfict!

[yummyalphabetsoup]

She's amazing! I can barely do two semi-decent pirrouettes en pointe!

[brokenpointeMV]

Very very technical.

[diamondgurl411]

The girls from my studio said its easier to turn with a tutu but this girl makes it seem easier without.

[naya123451]

That seems like it hurts wen she does that with her foot owchie!!!!!

[MsCocoNoir]

@pinkstarburst131

i think you're right! i'm 15 and not so skinny like her and i do ballet since 9 years and everything is allright! you don't have to be so skinny to be a good balletdancer!

[whatafonduefulworld]

@MsCocoNoir how is that relevant? maybe she eats like normal people do..you don't even know her, so why would you agree with a comment regarding her diet?

[jpg225]

i can only do 3- on average

4- on a lucky day

5- when im extremely lucky

[whatafonduefulworld]

@pinkstarburst131 because obviously since someone is skinny, she doesn't eat enough and needs to be fed lots of fatty foods. because there's no such thing as a fast metabolism or a naturally skinny person, right? what a ridiculous thought!

[jennyluvballet]

@whatafonduefulworld No. I eat lots of fatty food like cakes, chips, etc, but I still very skinny.

[ConieeSwaag]

she is soooooooo good! i can only just do 4 pirouettes!:)

[YumaTenshi]

I imagine it must be an incredible feeling to be able to turn and turn and turn... I once dreamed I would do so many pirouettes and it felt so great but when waking up, reality came back T_T

[antosroad]

great

[mshappygurl13]

is that at Barbra driscol ballet?

[ohsusanna123]

amazing!!!!!!!:D

[loveballetxo]

beautiful! I'm twelve and I can do five regularly and six sometimes! you are an incredible dancer! I hope to be as beautifully held together as you when I'm fourteen!!

[dancehart]

@loveballetxo

Wow lucky! Im twelve and i can barely do two!! What dance school do u train at?

[Sergeisgay123]

Shes so skinny she reminds me of a spider lady. You can see its natural though.. =) Which is better.

[JuliaMakeItRain]

Wow.

Amazing.

I'm speechless.

[BalletfreakXD]

AMAZING!!!! I can only do 4 3/4 I wish I could do 8

[beautifulballetbabe]

@BalletfreakXD you can round up to 5, I won't tell ;)

[dogsrcool099]

20 people do not know what a good/ AMAZING pirouette looks like!!!!

[raccoonxeyesxx]

Wait, wait, wait...I just noticed something. What's up with her first position port de bras? I'm no expert, but shouldn't they be, well...in some sort of semblance of a first position? It looked like she had them crossed here...

[heyimAWESOME12]

she has perfect control!

[dancechampion10]

Thats really good! Especially for pointe shoes!

[blueydleprechaun]

Wow!!!!!!!

[juliet5roberts]

Aww:) I love her smile at the end!!

[tinydanzr425]

wow

[MsSunshine889]

beautiful

[BelgiumWonderKing]

Feed it.

[brynnl2d]

i do danceing but not much ballet. is her arms correct?

[ramdonchickencheez]

omg! perfect... everything!!

[yanyuet]

how does she do that??

[Coogigirl101]

Geez, why does she make this look so easy?

[fujimorimomoyia]

Everything was brilliantly done!!

Except did anyone notice at .08-.10 she swings her arms back just before she spins. In class my techer has always said to keep your center strong, the arms shouldnt move because there not the things giving you momentum. Its all in the feet. :)

[LaurenStar111]

Wow. Thats impressive :)

[jellysams]

Can you please tell me how to do a pirouette on pointe??

[cccfieldhockey]

dannngg! that was great!

[mrsladida]

I've watched lots of dancers on youtube do so many pirouettes, and I've noticed that they always bring their arms in close to their chests. Does that help them turn faster? Generally my ballet teacher discourages that kind of posture.

[Kierstentr]

@mrsladida Yes, i noticed her doing that too. My ballet teacher advises us to keep the strong rounded arm like you always should, but i guess this is okay sometimes. Especially if you are doing 8 fast pirouettes en pointe, people might not pay that much attention to her arms. But it is still not correct or posture for ballet, yeah. Plus, yes, pulling the arms in will make you spin faster, physics.. so she might just be doing it for the film on youtube.

[douglasgn66]

her arms go way out of wack after like the 2nd turn!

[Nf9456]

gahhhh! soo many good things going one there! Great turnout, balance, and spotting!!

[PrimaOnPointe]

Pirouettes on pointe... not fun for me, but she landed them like it was easier than breathing! :)

[ScorpionDancersLife]

and on pointe!

[jkokich]

It's her finish! So lovely! Yay!

[zoeyboey313]

gaynor mindens? :)

[sarahsandiego2]

goodness i can't even do one!

[theepictalent]

@sarahsandiego2  I know how you feel

[brokenpointeMV]

I am going to go cry now. Jk that was really really good.

[xSmiley97x]

Girl u are my new hero ;)

[GigiBizzy]

Omg!!

[xoTeenyox]

She looks like a music box ballerina... amazing!

[XxMelinaxMallisaxX]

AH-MAZ-ING!!! :'))

[sofiemarris]

..how?!

[PutanGanteng]

00.05 - 00.06 the skirt was magically dissapear

[carlyiona]

she randomly loses her tutu in the middle, but shes standing in the exact same position...i replayed it like six times, like wtf did it go?!?!

[mangamacho122897]

@carlyiona actually if you look closer she moves back an inch or two even lol :)

[Leshamajigga]

@carlyiona oooh GOOD! i'm not just going crazy!

[gisoojoon]

@carlyiona It's a different clip......

[laurenboren94]

@carlyiona shes not is the exact same spot the clip is cut

[Chickofmanywonders]

@carlyiona mostly she took it off and handed it to someone who took it from her

[ramennoodlesgirl]

@carlyiona I saw that too.

[indepdanc]

@carlyiona they jump cut the video! haha :)

[Jazzyliz18]

@carlyiona She took it off and started over?

[EllyBelleAMVs]

@carlyiona Actually, I think she was a little bit farther back when they cut the video? It does look like almost the exact place, though... xD

[razzleberry123]

omg is she on point?!?!?!?

[laurenboren94]

she is an insperation to all young and old dancerss

[Allylaurel]

Amazing! I wish I could do pirouettes like that! She makes them look incredibly easy and beautiful :)

[casualsharpiee]

hahaha at first i was like "wait i counted six." and then i saw eight. Beautiful dancer!!!

[BarbieGrl291]

Stunning dancing. End of story.

[Vlikeshugs]

That was absolutely gorgeous, but I can't get over how freaking thin she is. Nothing wrong with that as long as it's natural though. xD

[love2dancedance2love]

Sooo pretty and I love her smile at the end!

[CrazyCrazyDaphDaph]

She had incredible control, but she wound her pirouette up at the beginning.

[becca9102]

i'm 14 and can barely do a double en pointe. soooo jealous hahah

[Nf9456]

@SoMusic888 You definitely are not a "ballerina" and I'm pretty sure you don't even know what that means.

[palmtree101gal]

So skinny!

[eagleslaxgirl1]

How old is shee..im on my 11th year and i can only do 4..

[eagleslaxgirl1]

Im in my 11th year of dance..i can only do 4..

[Pinkarooty]

[Pinkarooty]

6 by my count

[JyeonMin]

Excellent! Hmm I'm not a dancer but I'm amazed that dancers have total control of their bodies.

[butybubu222]

OMGAAAAH beautiful.
