First Class, Preballet

[ipadlover21]

that does not look pre-ballet it looks a little advance

[Barbiebratzgal123]

is this an open house maybe?

[IBakedYouSomeCookies]

the correct term would probably be pre-pointe

[floralportraits]

if this is pre-ballet....i'm in trouble, cause i can't do splits! this looks a bit challenging for the first class....

[Habibushka1]

They are doing minimum 2nd grade as minimum, but not pre ballet. All teachers might dream about pre ballet students like they are....

[MichelleLant]

To people saying this isn't pre-ballet... it definitely is lol. They're just going over pirouette/pique preps, changement and sous-sus, etc

For recreational classes though this obviously isn't pre.

@noshititskrae good luck with ballet! Sorry you had such a rough experience. Sometimes talented teachers teach to the highest level of the class, instead of the overall, which can be frustrating. You WILL improve. :)

Lol noob

[wendyverdades]

@Kibifos I too started older. I want you to find another class you feel comfortable with.

No matter what your first ballet classes will be overwhelming. I have danced now for 20 years.

I started at 30. I hope you continued with ballet or you will try again. I am what they call a balletomane. I have balletomania and want the whole world to dance!

[noshititskrae]

I honestly had a first class which had stuff this complicated in it today. They went so fast and it was unbelievably overwhelming. I felt absolutely horrible about myself after because I couldnt do any of it. I understand I am starting as an adult, but I still don't see how I can be expected to follow 16 steps with arm movements after one showing, and then do it myself to music. I wanted to cry.

[sk8rpunkbalerina]

my teacher uses the exact same music!

[edwinac2009]

at least grade 3 ! the first class ballet suppose wear in pink dress and learn the position of the step..they almost got 3 to 4 years for dancing ballet!

[balletteacher621]

I agree with the other comments. Pre-ballet is not the proper title for this.

[LaMargoful]

That's ballet not pre ballet pre ballet is for people who r 6 and youger

[iRideiHorse]

@LaMargoful I'm going to start pre-ballet and I'm 10.. I'm taking a class with kids my age, though. Isn't pre-ballet just beginner?

[littledancerrgirl]

yeaa.. this is like grade four? but what syllabus is it? like ive never seen it before..

[louisem0425]

i dont think it is preprimary-ballet preprimaryballet is diffrent than that they look about grade 3/4

[Ballet4Everz]

Ok, there is not way that this is pre-ballet or their first class.

[aisheteru407]

unless it was like 4 hours long, theres no way this was not only a pre-ballet class, but a FIRST lesson???

[MermaidLover97]

[cupcake2844]

[pointeskatecybunny]
