Anaheim Ballet: Samantha '09

[bozemandude]

of course she is flexible! she can get her leg up past her head!!

[robynst8]

what age do you need to be to get your points.Im only 9 but i cant wait

[ThatOneTheatreGirl]

@robynst8 i'm 14 and starting pointe this summer at age 15... 9 years old seems a bit young, because the muscles in your feet are still very soft and tender. they'll harden up at around age 12. i know how badly you want to go up en pointe!!! i've been there! but you should just take it one class at a time. wait until you've been doing ballet for at least 3-4 years and are comfortable with the fundamentals of dance. then you can ask your teacher about going up en pointe! Good luck!! :)

[Lisa13245]

I'm one of those "unfortunate" people who don't have the opportunity to dance.

[xPeaceloveandmusicx]

Great dancer! Love her.

[school86]

Beautiful and very inspirational. Her words are soooo true! Samantha you are a wonderful dancer and Evan...great video!

[balletdncr1209]

Ask a Ballerina: is 12 too old to start ballet

[cocobabyballerina]

balletdncr1209- its never to old to start dance:)

"Get the negativity out of your head."

That's my new rule for life :)

[sunshinesmilenrg]

SHE HAS MY LEAG WARMER :p

[FaryaBibonett]

i want your car! no sarcasm here...

[ickyvic]

she's really pretty and a really great dancer! =)

[JackyTorres]

one of my favorite videos..

hands down =]]

[AbbyRoad13]

Ask a Ballerina:Do you have to do tap if you start ballet?

[leanna636141]

No. What makes you think that?

I'm not Anaheim ballet, but I've been dancing for 11 years and I have absolutely no tap background. I did it for about 2 months and quit. ballet is completely different, and while some moves might look alive you definitely don't need tap background to do ballet.

[xPeaceloveandmusicx]

Ballet is the base of all dance. If you can do ballet you can do any dance. There are so many moves in other types of dance that are from ballet. So no tap needed, but if you want to do tap you should do ballet to help with the tap.

[welshcorgilover0]

Amazing dancer!

What was the step she did at :36?

It looked like a fouette turn without plie - I've never seen that before.

[bubblebran]

It looks like she was undecided between a double turn or fouette and did a little of both.

[gigiperson123]

it's called a pirouette

[ipawdluv]

Yeah, I was curious about that too!

[balletkido]
