anybody know the name of this music?

[pacificnwballet]

@beardabesque All those details are included at the end of the video--but the piece is Mirrors by Maurice Ravel!

[tdanceballet21]

I really love it when you show videos like this, no performance just classwork!

[pacificnwballet]

@tdanceballet21 Good to hear! If you want more, there's a whole playlist dedicated to school videos...

@loulie1997 Maybe you could find a better ballet school? When I was younger we had to drive over an hour to get to ballet because that was the closest pre-professional ballet school. So yeah, my mom drove about 2.5 hours most days XD

[juliet5roberts]

are they allowed to wear color leotards whenever?

[Cheerbabeforeverable]

theyre all so lovely!

i watched this video twice. the second time was just leotard spotting which ones i have :P

[OxymoronGirl500]

@PolinaSemionovaFan Yes if you're good enough...I was in this class this past summer and there were a couple 14 year olds...but mostly it was 15/16

[loulie1997]

man i wish i had a better teacher.... my training will make me in the corps de ballet, i could be greater but my teacher will not teach me!

[PolinaSemionovaFan]

Could a dancer be 14 and in this level??
