Get to the Pointe

With Mother's Day coming up, I wanted to pay homage to the women who may not be our biological madres, but, still care and push us to grow so much, they need their flowers too. A round of applause and big hugs for our dance teachers! This reaction video features a variety of short form content from the ballet internet highlighting the realities, funny moments, and cute habits that these women have on their dancers' lives. Even amongst dance teachers, they also joke that they are therapists & caregivers outside of also teaching us how to tendu and plie. And...

It's been a few weeks since Tik Tok 100, and with that, we've been diving into other categories of the ballet internet.  And this week's video is arguably the type of content that Josephine wanted to watch in the beginning - before the the Tik Tok series went viral. Some highlights from this video: Are dancers just getting better? A once in a generation dancer: Chloe Misseldine Seeing traces of ballet in other disciplines  How do non-dance audience members see or appreciate ballet?  The impacts and influences of ballet on social media is a big topic to discuss for another...

With the rise of balletcore in the fashion industry, there has been a new wave of adults either trying ballet for the first time or going back to a childhood passion. Is this a good thing?

However, the most upvoted comment & my personal favorite is as follows: "In Argentina, us dancers have a saying: “tango waits for you” -el tango te espera-. It refers to the fact that anybody, at any age, can begin dancing. " Although this comment refers to a non-ballet style of dance, we share the same sentiment. It is NEVER too late to dance! Don't worry, this video isn't just sentimental takes that aren't that piping...there are some other clips included that lean a little bit more spicy. Do...

This video was posted on April Fool's - but was not a joke! Just a lil deviation from our regular ballet content :) Luckily, it's pretty easy to spot how ballet bleeds into so many different art forms, so this didn't feel like too much of a cry from our normal content. Was fun to dip our toes into another algorithm - thanks to the recent 2026 Winter Olympics! We too, have caught Alysa Liu fever, as her apparent joy in her art form is what we all strive for - ballet or otherwise!  What an amazing example to the...
