[littlehorror1]

17 people missed the like button :(

amazing :) well done

[emilywhou]

haha i tilted my head like 800 times watching this video

[LaMargoful]

Did anyone notice they had leg warmers??!! I did!!!

[Gkg3692]

@MissAliiciia

Not at all! Most girls start at ages 11-12.

And to the girl in the video, you've got talent girl (so does your friend)! You both need to try to find a new studio that challenges you ands helps you grow more. Somewhere with more original choreography.

[MissAliiciia]

Aww, isn't 13 a bit young for pointe?!

[Ballet4Everz]

@MissAliiciia no, at most ballet schools they start u off at 10, but i think 12-13 is the best age because ur feet are almost fully developed.

[00angel00girl00]

that was amazing! lol my name is Jessica so their comments caught my attention.

[dancerforlife62]

watch your wrists.. you let them go limp a lot and it looks sloppy.

nice work otherwise.

[XGinny11X]

Absolutely beautifully done, both of you :)

[danceri110]

you're much better than you friend . . . nice, both of you!

[dancerashley88]

Maybe it is When Comes December... It's confusing! can't fin anywere to download it though

[dancerashley88]

Sorry actually its called The earth lay white

[dancerashley88]

I finally found this song after like a year of searching. It is called when comes december by Tim Story

[born2dance2198]

beautifully done!

[boywhofelldownawell]

that was really good, but whoever was filming it shouldn't have kept turning the camera to the side, you can do that with photos but not videos. because otherwise we have to keep tilting our heads.

[corinnatheballerina]

You two dance very well together.

[ejhoeyerson]

to the dancer beginning on the left, very beautiful!!

[NckJonasluver]

Beautiful.!

[ieat4thgraders]

i was 13. i quit ballet at 14 because i thought i had a horrible body type and there was no way it would work out. wow that was pretty stupid idea. started back about a month ago tho. hope i can get it back. i've no idea what the song is called lol sorry..

[Ilovepointe134]

@ieat4thgraders

it doesn't matter the body type i mean if ur good go for it look at my vids

[Ballet4Everz]

@Ilovepointe134 well, maybe not when ur young, but, it does become a factor when u get older, and if u dont have a healthy fit body, u wont be able to jump as high or turn as fast because ur weight will weight u down.

[Ilovepointe134]

@Ballet4Everz

ya i guess so am trying to be skinny so maybe i can make dance a career

[Ballet4Everz]

@Ilovepointe134 didnt u tell ieat4thgraders that it doesnt matter ur body type? anyhow, good luck, i hope u make it if thats what u want :D

[Ilovepointe134]

@Ballet4Everz

ya i did i know but im just sick of wanting to make it a career but i wont be able to

[Ballet4Everz]

@Ilovepointe134 well, u cant say that for sure, do u dance with a company? or join one, ull make ur way up to prima ballerina :D

[Ilovepointe134]

@Ballet4Everz

thanks and i dance with the down studio

[Ilovepointe134]

@Ballet4Everz oppps i dance wit hthe town studio

[bhoward1980]

Does anyone know the name of this song??

[whiteneon56]

that was good!

how old are were you when you did that?

[annisconstance]

which brand of pointe shoes do u wear?

It's pretty good!

[nachtwunsch93]

I love the music, the choreography and the dancers, I think the girl with the blue shirt is the best! @her:You`re absolutely great!!

[nacholady08]

ummmmmm where do u dance??????

[iloveh2o13]

i want, no need to be able to do that one day. i bet im the only one who wants dancing to be my life. ive convinced my dad almost for lessons, just got to cinvince my mum. x x

[AmberCrawfordMovies]

If you are the girl on the right side while I'm watching the video, you have excellent balance and extensions in arabesque very pretty, the girl on the left doesn't have that great of balance and isn't as strong on pointe comparatively.

[lilanza]

i LOVE this video!! I wanna copy that dance now! But I'm nowhere near good enough yet :( x

[retroguy26]

Who is the composer for this wonderful music? I would love to know!

[TheDanzTeacher]

I love the choreography. You have good arches and turnout. Your dancing is very strong - excellent technique. Keep working hard - you look very natural on stage.

[JohnM3D]

Great ballerinas! Bad filming... :( When you take a photo at 90-degress, it's no problem because you just rotate the picture. When you're watching a film rotating the screen is NOT very easy! :D (video conversion, someone?)

[DANCEEisforlovers]

i think that you all our great dancers. shelle, you really have a remarkable stage presence. Things like that turn a good performance to great. You were going at different times at points in the dance but that could have been the camera angle. great work. i look forward to seeing more.

[attackthebonbons]

*mouth drops open*

You don't know what a box is?

[TinkaBellOx]

pause it around 45 seconds,, it makes me cringe how the right foot isnt up on pointe properly :L This is really gud though,, everyone has lil mistakes like that :D ox

[einsteingirl115]

the girl on the left needs to go all the way on her box in her shoes..that way it makes it look prettyier...great job tho.. awsome!!!

[mleiws111]

learn to spell practiCe douchebag!

[DanceSparksB]

practice can be spelt both ways:

practice, and practise.

they are used different ways too. so speak for yourself.

[mleiws111]

uhh what r yew an aussie r sumpin???

[yearningarrow]

the British spell it with an s too, idiot.

[blondnymph]

how cute were those little kids whispering at th end?

[karab118]

i thought u both did really good it looked like u were really up on your boxes you looked like u really knew what u were doing...good job =]

[stereophone456]

I thought it was really pretty, and you both are great, but it was kind of boring.

[323557355]

The one on the left is late!

[jessicaah]

the only thing that bothered me was that you were staring at yourselves in the mirror

other than that it was really good

[dancer24x7]

good job staying on the music

[DancingXDestiny]

OMG!

What's the name of the studio

I've seen this before

[insanecircus]

you're pointe work is really good =]

but i prefer your friends arm movements

still your both really good!

[laptitmoii]

this is a beautiful coreography and i like the way the right one dances,very very soft ans somehow light

[horsecrazygurly]

something to maybe improve on would be to move your head(s) a little more. right now, when they don't move, it makes you look a little too mechanical. it doesn't have to be much, just a little tilt or following your hand motions.

[horsecrazygurly]

did you by any chance get the hand and arm movements at the beginning from Serenade?

because it looks like sort of a sped-up version of them.

currently my ballet class is doing a dance to a linkin park song, and we do the hand movements from Serenade too.

nice dance!!!

[ssdance]

Nice fluid arms...

:-)

[Ch1x0rH4x]

whoever is holding the camera is lame with cameras XD

[annreneen]

you were excellent, but your friend definately needs to work on keeping her leg straight, she tends to bend her knees

[rosy879]

Kentislandgirl, your mom started pointe at 7!!!! Thats impossible, she could not have been strong enough, no offense

[giselleacttwo]

No, it isn't impossible. It is irresponsible of the teacher though. They used to routinely put small children in pointe shoes before they realized it could cause injuries and disfigurement.

[clubihatekikyou]

yeah, my mother as well went up on en pointe at age 9, they thought they were being good teachers and making the kids look more graceful but after a while they found out how bad it was for their ankles and toes.

[SierraNichole]

Very pretty, and wonderful feet and balance. Your friend needs work on getting over on her shoes, but your feet were excellent. You also seem to have good extension.

[Kentislandgirl]

lol yea i agree.. my teachers really cool she sings to us haha

[Kentislandgirl]

sweet!! i cant wait til i start.. i wish my mom did dance but she doesnt oh well my dance teacher is really cool though

[Kentislandgirl]

oh dude thats cool.. did your mom take pointe ?

[Kentislandgirl]

well see i did it when i was 3 or 4 and i did it for about 3 or 4 years and i just started again this year soo yea but i probably wont start pointe until im 14 - 16

[didgte]

Good work ladie ooo my toes hurt now

[LunarLady3]

lovely :) well done!

[got2luvpointe]

that are both very good, but i prefer the one on the right!

[wisteriaangel]

This was so beautiful!!! You guys are good.

[PirateGirl129]

Pretty!!

[shawnjohnson214]

i cannot wait i am starting pointe next week!!!

[MERCK5SDB]

lol the whispering at the end was funny. "look at shelly! no look at jessica!" lol tf

[elli1807]

elephants!!!!!! ahah

[lauradewett]

the one on the right looks more advanced

[DanceFreakHannah]

you girls are beautiful dancers. Keep on dancing!!

[DanceFreakHannah]

I have a question... are there only two pointe dancers at your studio?

[5and6and7and8]

wow you have really stong ankles. i loved it.

[balletchick9088]

So graceful! I love it!

:)

[TrnsfrmerPrncs4lyfe]

a masing

[CaseyLKing]

thats nice

really together musically

[danceuse27]

You're only 13? You're very talented, and strong for your age. This is a beauitful video. Keep up the GREAT work!

[fpizlyp]

very very good :)

keep up the good work!

xx

[dancerashley88]

can somebody please tell me what this music is.... please... anybody??

[gbcdancer]

ok.. girl in the black needs some new shoes.

[dancerashley88]

beautiful.... wat is this music??? i love it!!

[rosawe93]

The girl on the left COuld have straighter legs but other than that it looks great!!! :D

[dancer021756]

OMG. the person on the right looks exactly like me. She stole my face!!!! LOL but seriously she duz look soooo much like me... FREAKYYYYYY!

[InfiniteWallflower]

your arabasques are gorgeous. the whole thing was quite lovely. the choreography itself is very interesting.

=D

[ClairePatterson]

you are slightly turned in on your pique turns.

[balletlovergirl]

i went on pointe when i was 10. that's the appropriate age.

[Iamdancerhearmeroar]

the 'appropriate age' is when you are ready. That should be at least over the age of 9.

[allibabii]

The appropiate age is when your dance instuctor thniks you are capable and storng enough..whether thats 10 or 20 years old.

[Iamdancerhearmeroar]

exactly.

[oliviainyourpants]

the one who starts out on the left has very nice feet

[katythebeautygirl]

loved the posey truns girls fab loved it wish i still did ballet

[Anni96xx]

I am 11 and am getting pointe shoes in the next two weeks. I've been doing ballet for 9 years. It irritates me when lil kids go on pointe tho. U guys are awesome , pointe shoe role models!!!!!

[electronicpostoffice]

Very nice! great balance guys! how long have you been on pointe?

[srosie10]

you guys are so good!

[haileyloves2dance]

i can only start when i'm 13...which i am now...i've been learning it for about 5 months now and it's the hardest thing for my feet to handle but i'm breaking my new shoes easier

[KaptainKlancy]

I have to say that you have the best technique of the three!

[saritisimayo]

Are you just thirteen?? WOW you´re great, I´m sure you´ll become a professional dancer!! Congratulations!!

[EternallyxJoy]

Supersonicseal, I feel your pain.

But I started ballet when I was three, so imagine waiting as long as I did.

I enter pointe next year, because my dance school doesn't let you start pointe until a certain age.

[fanfoon29]

love the bourres!!

[dance4eva2111]

good ! but smile & balance! also try to get all the way over the arches <3

[ninalovescake]

oooo never wear black tights under pointe shoes! gross..

[ave5rick3]

the girl with the purple tank top and black skirt you have a beautiful arabesque ... girl with black tights need to watch turnout!!  nice choreography!

[Kentislandgirl]

lol your never to old for anything im 12 and probably cant start beginging pointe next year so ill be 13 it sucks cuz i danced for five years but no i have to start all over

[liesetjuh]

You're very good.. i do ballet for 11 years..

Pointes is difficult :)

great job!

[Balletlove59]

watch out for your left foot..

[carrie1598]

I don't think 13 is too old. I'm 16 and I just started a few weeks ago.

[xsweetxsugarxcandyx]

hey i'm 13 and was wondering do you think i'm too old to start ballet class cuz i really love dancing.

[teddybear22482]

camera person sux!

[jsklaven]

The Dancers needed lots more practice! They were not together and they looked miserable! Also when the girl in the black tights joined them it made the routine look even more sloppy!

[tessagrl]

I think it's really good, and I liked it. The one thing that was monsterously distracting me though was your hands. They kind of... flop. Down from your wrists, it's just like... -insert clever sound effect here-

And especially in en courante, (spelling? I don't know) make sure your hands don't touch eachother. They should be extended out from your wrists, following the line of your arms, thumb tucked, wrist turned out- and generally about the same width as your face apart. Hope that helps! =]

[TigerToggers]

it was really good, just watch where you're flinging your leg on the pose turns lol and you'll be all good. dont worry i do it all the time.

[daddysballerina1]

that was great but the girl in the black stinks

[oldgoldsequin]

use more expression when your dancing...and over exaggerated head it makes it look 100% better

[iicecappaddict]

you outshinned your friend by far

[ErubianDawn]

Agreement with below. Your friend is gonna kill her feet. But all in all that looked great.

[nikofraiturette727]

Yoour friend dosen't look ready for pointe yet. She isn't completely over the box of her shoe...that kills haha. You are really realy good though :D

[7lightbulbs]

the girl in the left doesn't have very good technique...

[dangermouse1001]

wow! you're amazing!

[sophieblovetodance]

that was really good. the girl on the right of the vid ( there left) is far better, better lines and is better on pointe, the other girls shoes need to be broken in more

[paperjuicebox]

HI SHELLE IT"S MADDIE

you're amazing

i hate you

<3

[orangeblueandlavenda]

the fist thing i noticed were the perfect burays and the coupling.

[trixiemarie7]

The girl on stage right wasnt ever on the box of her shoe...... That must really hurt..... She needs to work on that...

[ballerina612]

wow you're amazing...I wish I had that balance, I need to practice my ballance. your friend didn't really seem to get all the way over her boxes at times.

[ieat4thgraders]

i don't know. my ballet teacher picked it. i can ask her when i get home in august (summer intensive rite now). i don't want to bother her over email because she's always really busy... sorry. but i get it in like 4 wks. =]

[bhoward1980]

This is really good! What is the name of the music you used?

[crazylilme13]

beautiful

[pointeshoediva38]

the girl starting out on stage right needs 2 get over her box!!!! great job tho!!!!!!!!!!!! <3

[tedmacat]

i must say, i love ur arabesque. (sp??) much higher than the other girl originating from the left, but i shouldnt be mean. its only practice. xP

fantastic job!

[ieat4thgraders]

almost 3 years. thank you!  =]

[xThexPopularxTot]

Wonderfulll :D

How long have you been on pointe?

[ballerinanerd247]

person who starts on the left, you would benefit from getting a pair of toe shoes with a lower shank break. you were very good tho. both of you. and the person who kind'a came in half way through :)

[MissxCrayonsx]

Beautiful [:

[Golddusttwin1]

Very nice! :)

[ieat4thgraders]

before around 1:55 i'm on the right. after 1:55, but before around 2:30 i'm on the left. After about 2:30, I'm back on the right.

[ieat4thgraders]

i am the one who starts on the right. towards the middle-end, we criss-cross and i am on the left. then at the end, we chainee` in a square-ish-circle and i end up furthest to the right in our diagonal.
