You’re most welcome! ❤

Adult beginner for 16 years... I still find this very helpful!:)

On your first point (take your time), omg yes!! That is of the uttermost importance. Good, solid, accurate and precise foundations are everything. ❤

I have been teaching ballet for almost 5 years and recently I have been looking up for this amazing tips that can change my teaching skills; I feel veery proud because a lot of the things you said are necessary for teachers to have I do prioritize them and make everithing I can to do. I thank you for all your dedication to us, teachers and students, who are in loved with ballet.

Your advice is very helpful! I wish this video was available when I started ballet. Luckily I found great teachers who care about adult students. Thanks to them I improved a lot, but I still struggle with some of the basics you talked about. I hope to participate in your intensive one day! ❤

This is high quality teaching

Thank you so much Isabella, Enjoy Melbourne it is such a beautiful city. I hope to join one of your intensives there one day when I return ‘home’. At 73 I might have to make a ‘flexible’ booking 😊 🩰❤️🩰

I hope so too!

What an excellent video. I theraband my feet, but I've always had weak ankles and that has never changed. Also I second your opinions about floor barre. So important. I started ballet at 21YO in the late 1970s, the beginning of the adult ballet movement. One thing I never learned was the positions of the body in space. We did the "box" thing, but rarely did we do drills for learning those positions to make them second nature. That was always a gap in my training.

Immensely helpful. Thank you, Isabella! So so so helpful!

You have helped me tremendously. I danced as a kid, and planned on dancing with a Company. However I had to choose between Skating and Ballet. Well I'm back at it again, and Loving Every Second of it.🤗💝

I honestly regret not taking Vaganova so much! still grateful to do ballet but I was supposed to learn Vaganova style and switched last minute. I think it's great for learning the true foundations personally. thank you for another great video!

​@@balletwithisabellathank you so much. I hope that one day I will be able to join one of your classes. I am making plans for that :)

Hola ! Yo voy a clases de ballet para adultos y doy una clase a la semana de barra al suelo, realmente me ayuda muchísimo ! Me encantaría hacer un intensivo de verano contigo pero yo soy de España ! No sé cómo podría hacer eso ! Gracias por tus videos ! Me encantannnnnnnb❤🥰

I will be near London in early September this year, I would gladly make the trek for the chance to jump in on a few of your beginners in-person classes * if only the stars align 🥹 I just re-began my ballet journey recently after 20+ yrs: continually encouraged by your guidance. I'm grateful I ran across your videos! (And if not this year, then surely the next time I come visit family in the UK! 🤞) I will peruse your website for more information. Thanks again for sharing your experiences ❤
