[gymnasticsfan4ever11]

What is on her feet ??? At least get her ballet shoes those things look weird also do you still do ballet

[jannujanely]

thatswhy parents shouldn't be @ childs training

[robinengina]

I do not suck! NOT! and i´m verry hurt by most of these comments, i was 5!

[BBONK95]

bless, that dance teacher must have some good patient levels! id of flipped me top !

[Malela89]

she has serious attention problems

[oreosis]

should wait till shes older to try to do ballet. with all that energy shed be great at martial arts lol

[dancedreampeace]

where is that studio?



[Lissagirl99]

It's her FIRST ballet lesson people! read the title and stop hating!

[eatingutube]

dá-lhe umas correadas boas, e ela para de histerias.....

[Missanithapriya]

Nice Expressions!

[MrMaheshkamal]

good to watch!

[mslua3]

she doesnt stop mut steel cute and if she keeps doing ballet at her 8s she wil be briliant

=)

[balletteacher621]

The teacher did the right thing by ignoring her. Muppetnut is a bit harsh on the parent, but she is right about one thing - Mom (or whoever is videoing) should not be there. And what are those things on their feet? If you are going to put your child in a ballet class, buy real ballet slippers please.

[SLYCoopaEatsChicken]

GINA YOU ARE BRILLIANT :D

[robinengina]

hey, thanx! im 11 now but it's stil fun to look back!

[Frenchbabex]

i would be so annoyed if my kid was doing tht lol.

i thinkk the teacher should have gone to help her and made her listen like the other kids do.. but u guess little kids just cant be asked to listen..

[robinengina]

so you are calling me annoying?!

[sprotychick135]

this is really really bad dancing uh

[muppetnut]

wow.

you're a bad parent, i hope you realize.

:)

shes looking striaght at the camera that whole time--you shouldn't have been there.

plus shes just a brat. can't stand kids like that.

[robinengina]

hello, you're a bad parent if you do not go to your daughter her first ballet lesson! that would've been sad!

[paulw99]

i think no video and mum or distraction present and she would have done better

a common reason ballet schools ban people from watching apart from on parent days when the kids have something to show them

[jennysomeya]

Its good to have imagination and to feel the music like Gina does, but it is just as important to learn to listen and do as one is told..... there is a time and place for everything....... it is the mothers job to teach her child this.

[tdsmeg4]

poor girl looks like a not good studio

[yourbabez]

haha thats so cutee!

[mayadaniellejonas]

she's dancing in her own little world :D

thats cutee.

[democrazy1987]

I did ballet when I was 3 years old and paid more attention. Although when I was taught piano my mother made me do it and I used to make up stuff instead of doing scales correctly. Looks like she doesnt really want to be there.

[ginnypotter777]

i did it when I was four and I sat down, crawled off the stage, jumped around randomly, and removed my shoes. Yeah. I was definitely the ADHD child...

[andslam3000]

she's so good she dances in her own little world

[SaranaProductions]

LOL!! she is very cute,i dont think ballet will be her thing :)

[TashaH89]

yeah.. by posting that u just killed the whole concept of childrens ballet. what HAVE u given her to wear on her feet:O

crime to ballet

[freathproduction]

payless ballet slippers = they look like slippers, but theyre pink so they call them ballet slippers, so mothers want to save money and buy fake cheap shit :P

[ballet2lover2apple]

Gina is a lovely girl and I am sure she will be a famous ballerina one day.She is feeling the music and dancing by herself.Although she can't concentrate,she will next time.

[primaballerina176]

That is so cute!

I think a little extra personality is nice to have :D

[thuna37]

lmao she's too koo for those move...

[cutielove13]

wow.

[1210donna]

Gina is gorgeous, a lovely idiosyncratic performance. She is feeling the music with her whole body, not fixated on hearing the instruction. She would be wonderful in a dance class that encourages improvisation. She has wonderful fluid movement.  I started out in dance and I'm autistic with the attention span of a goldfish. I remember I learned best in a queue with someone's back to me ahead of me and all learned as rote. But the teacher structured in some set time for free improvisation.

[kaylovshim]

u should ummmmm rele take ur kid outa dance shes not doing nothing n it looks like ur waisting ur money

[febreezefancy]

The kids in the ballet classes I assisted in acted just like this. So at the end of each class we have "free time", where we played a song and they got to dance around the room however they like, as long as they didn't run. That's why most (not all but most) kids come to class. They want to show off what they can do and feel pretty. If you're open to what they have, they'll be more open to what the teacher has.

[ILuvDemiLandSelenaG]

She is so stupid that she's ANNOYING!!! Ballet is just not her thing, lock her in a closet or something so I won't have to see her stupid skinny wack body!!!

[monsters0eh]

shes cool

[bieketjuuh]

grappig kindje!!

(heb gehoord dat de leerkracht nederlands sprak ;))

[lilshymamisexi7414]

she might be a lil slow but i think she's just showing out for the camra

[JudeHarrison0289]

DEFINitly tryign to show off for the camera she knows its theire and well shes cute but if the camera should be hidden next time or get her used to it just follow her around with it doesnt have to be on record just follow her around with it in your hands. trhen she'll get used to it and wont show off as much next time

[kokolina1996rok]

very very very very stupid

[idancemyheartout]

she acts like she has ADD or something

[destiff1613]

wooooow shes ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,stupid

[dancettechick13]

I was a dance assistaned at ages 9-12. We had kids that acted the same or worse. Most of the time the parents would ask me if they paid attention just so they know how they act during class because they couldnt watch. Ive seen kids run around the room and one year we had to get an older door to sit at the door so the kids wouldnt run out the room during class. Shes ok. Just a free spirit

[dancer9411]

I teach pre ballet to 5 year olds and i was told if one acted like that girl i would have to kick them out for 5 minutes until they learn to obey. Harsh i know but they want to be ballerinas

[febreezefancy]

kicking them out doesn't accomplish anything. The kids might act this way because they don't want to do ballet (usually because it's boring for them) so getting to leave them room might actually be what they want. it is different with different schools though.

[SBizzle94]

yikess.

[jdhash8347]

In all Honesty at my studio if she would have been acting like that even in her first class she would have been taken out because she is affecting the teacher's concentration and the other kids.

[thispoopisbananas]

Don't let her stand all the way on her toes, its not good. not trying to be mean, just letting you know.

[monkeyangel611]

o my! maybe ballet isnt thing thing for her. i have a child in my class that is very similar. she trys to overexagerate eveything and wont stand still for the life of her. Gina should be involved in something where she is constantly moving like maybe gynastics, swimming, soccer.

[TinyDancer567]

wow if she cant even calm down and pay attention than how do you get her to do anything?

[claymate15]

I am a profesional ballerina too and one kid wasn't even moving and one shoes are to big good luck kids

[Babycurly321]

ah,there is no way you are going to get her to enoy ballet,she needs something like street dance or something

[BalletBully]

Hmmm...

A little hyper.

But gymnastics would be great for the little sweetie.

[BalletBully]

Awe!

Why not try a movement and dance class.

It's not real ballet,

But they dance around,

And make noises.

I teach many along with other ballets.

[Narutoprincess101]

the girl that 2 much energy 4 ballat

[robinengina]

so what? at least i gave it a try!

[Narutoprincess101]

funny

[Huliatt]

I bet her mom signed her up because she never had a chance to study ballet and succeedd. Why are you doing this to your child? She obviously doesn't want to be there.

[rebeccajake]

im in ballet im a profecional ballerina

[Huliatt]

well, congrats!

[Narutoprincess101]

cool

[natdancemartin]

little gina s a bit hyper!!!

[melisa1211]

ballet not for her, try her out for jazz, or hip hop..

[AnnaLRussell]

um, ya. y won't she do what the teacher is asking? I feel sorry for the teacher.

[QuetzalPhoenix]

Do as you're told! Maybe, it's because the camera's there ...

At least she isn't disrupting others ^^ and I guess she's having fun.

[thedarkone19876]

ok strange

[pomkitten]

omg that class is way stupider than what my dance teacher teaches for kids younger than that age!!! my teacher actually wears dance clothes. as a nice bonus, my teacher takes us to starbucks!

[chriscanal]

um ok

[vixiixiv]

Having 1 free spirit in a class is fine, but when they disrupt other kids who are being obediant it's hard.. trust me I teach and have had a few of those... she's not bothering the others so let her be

[Ballerina604]

Aw, she is such a free spirit.

I think she was just playing up for the camera. Maybe she would be more interested in jazz? There is more letting go and not as much order..

[cindyrella83]

ummmm no, thats not funny. true, she is a cutie, but im pretty sure the reason she signed up for that class was so she could learn. trust me, i am a ballet teacher and i am so lucky to have obidient students who listen and follow! they are actually at my classes for a reason. but dont worry! she'll learn eventually. :)

[bartandreas]

it is a particular thing by the way...

i guess you learned a lot in school like everybody else in the western world...i am very proud of her and she is not just cute but also very funny.

[SJZ17]

I love kids with a mind of their own!!! But the point of lessons is to learn to do a particarler thing isnt it? she is cute anway

[eatingutube]

Agreed. This is cute but useless to her future. It satisfies the parents vanity only, not the child's whishes.

[robinengina]

it was my idea to do ballet and i do not like mean comets

[SJZ17]

why isnt she doing what the teacher is telling them to??? the other kids were.

[bartandreas]

because she is a free spirit unlike you. programmed dumbo!!!

[eatingutube]

No, she is like others that needs to be different by thinking they were born to be pop stars. Sux.

[Huliatt]

something went very wrong with the way her parents raised her... spoiled and arrogant
