day in the life of a dance teacher ☆ Luna Montana 

the different reactions when she said they were doing improv was hilarious

I taught a ballet class for 3-6. When I was teaching my 6 year olds we were “jumping over the river” - a piece of blue fabric on the ground to practice leaps. Well I’m the middle of that activity I had a little girl pee mid jump and that’s when I knew I wasn’t cut out for it:

i would do anything to take a dance class with you. you're like the coolest and best teacher.

“i’m super hunger” *eats kale salad*

“and that’s on post anxiety” ok max jdjsjdjsj

Hi Luna, My name is Anna. I don’t know if you remember me but we danced together at CDT for a really long time. I was just scrolling through my snap feed and I found the video you did about going through body dysmorphia. I remember always watching you dance and being so amazed at how good you were and how perfect your body was. I never in a million years would have guessed what you were going through. I’m glad you are doing better. Just know that a lot of girls from our studio looked up to you and still look up to you for your talent and grace. As a senior dance major in college, I can tell you that the dance world at large is much different than the environment we grew up in. People judge you for your talent and personality more than for your body. I really hope you find your way and continue to dance, because it’s worth it.

the kid in black doing the renegade dance at 9:30 lmao i-

Lol my dance teacher would always tell us “I made this part up in my kitchen while cooking dinner!”

these 3rd grade ballerinas are better then i’ll literally ever be

At the end when you’re talking about your voice being tired, I noticed that you had been “shouting” or speaking at a high volume. Something to work on would be projecting, like on a stage, because this can help prevent vocal damage. Also, steaming your voice with a steamer or even just hot showers is great for this. Avoid tea before you’re talking for long amounts of time as well!

this is so random but i feel like you and maddie ziegler would be such a good friendship

Omg the warm up routine looks so nice!! Maybe you could show us the complete routine in a video? 😏

I love how you encourage them, but yet keep them focused. You're so sweet, but also know how to correct them when they need corrections 🖤

“If ur not doing it it’s caught on video” lmao I love these videos!!

These girls are so lucky to have you as a positive influence! You're a stellar role model, which is needed in the bitter sweet world of dance 💕💕💕💕💕💕loved this :•)

yes girl as a dance teacher myself I can relate to the whole blocking shenanigans lmaooo😂👏🏽

FINALLY a teaching video WE WANT MOREEE love it

I struggled giving classes at cadets when I became an instructor, something I was told then that has stuck: never speak while they are still talking, don’t disrespect yourself to raise your voice. It is such valuable advice and if time doesn’t permit for you to wait then speak in a low volume and those that are listening will benefit from your teaching. Try it, it might help you !!

Lmao when I tell my dance kids to do improv they all go "NOOOOOOO"😂😂😂

Hey! just a little tip- with kids as young as the ones in your ballet class, try to do really simple exercises so they can work on their placement and technique. Also, at that young of an age high legs are not worth sacrificing their placement and are not very important!!

9:28 lol the girl with the low ponytail having a quick tik tok dance break

I did ballet when I was 5 until 12 and then 16-17, I'm 20 now and seeing this brings me soooo many good memories

I love how you give positive corrections!! and ur so good at coreooooo!! we need to see it the final version😍

Kai: 50/50 LoVe ThE wAy YoU sPLiT iT- Luna: -okay- *cuts scene* That made me laugh so hard

I’ve had to quit ballet recently but hopefully I can do it again when I’m older if it’s not too late :( for now I’m living through your videos

Luna is so beautiful like, what?!

As soon as I heard wrong direction by hailee steinfield I was like “I like this class”

I’m having a major life crisis: dance teacher or aeronautical engineer someone help me pls

it’s been so amazing watching you grow as a dancer yourself then spreading your passion teaching other young dancers!🥺

the girl at 10:10 with "yeah you don't get a hug, just me" , swatting down luna's invite for a hug, then saying "come sarah" iF THAT AIN'T ME AT THAT AGE TRYING TO ME THE FAVORITE ASLDKFJASKL

Starting my first ballet class on Monday! Thank you so much for inspiring me to get out of my comfort zone. I'm 15 so lets hope I don't go and make a full out of myself.

you make the classes you teach have such a supportive and loving environment! I wish I had this when I danced more regularly

EVEN THO YOU ONLY PUT A FEW SECONDS OF 4EVER BY CLAIRO,,,thank you I freaking love her🤪🤧💗

I’m in eight grade There is three people in my jazz class We are all untalented

7:11 the stand of a good responsible teacher - btw i teach English nd i love how u treat ur little girls -

OMG THEY SEND IT TO BRAZIL FOR FREE AM I DREAMING? edit while watching the video: I'm proud of the amazing teacher you are becoming, you really love and enjoy being with these kids

That's adorable! (at 9:28 the girl on the right with a blue scrunchie is dancing a tiktok dance, I can relate lol)

You reminded me of my dance teachers, loved them all sm. Imma cry now

You remind me so much of my dance teacher me.ashley she’s so fun to be around and she just feels like a friend and we always get off topic and talk forever

your lyrical class are so sweet 🥺

Amazing job. Also amazing respect that you remembered about filming kids. I always am so worried but you're already a great teacher!

The moments you said “were doing Sweden” I was like omg I’m from sweden

your honestly THE coolest teacher ever, my ballet teachers is just so strict and emotionless and yells at us 24/7

All these dance moves (don’t know the term for it) is giving me throwbacks from my beginner jazz, lyrical, and ballet dances years ago😂

Oh man, I really miss going to dance class 😔 I can’t wait till quarantine is over and I can go back to dance 🥺

I really like you you're such an inspiration i love seeing you chasing your dream keep up the good work love you

You’ve inspired me to not only dance again but pursue my own dance company and teach!!

hi luna, i just wanted to say you really inspire me.. your video on body positivity really got me thinking because i was like “no way she’s insecure? i would give up so much to be as pretty” but thinking harder i realized our biggest judge is ourselves and everyone finds something wrong with themselves.. anyway yea i love you and wish i could meet you someday

your girls are all so cute and talented i want to hug them

OMG I love you! your so inspiring to me and your my tole model.

I clicked SO damn fast!! Lucky is looking so chilled and healthy🥺, and your pupils seem to really respect you and have fun, I loved this video Luna

I love how she actually does the moves with the kids 💗

my favorite youtuber right now! you’re so elegant while still being real and genuine in all your videos! i totally feel like i’m having a legit convo with a friend when i watch your vids haha! 🤍

Man everyone hates doing improv what the heck??? Improv is the best!!!!!

Why is ur family so dazzling and beautiful

its so cute all the little ones following her

I'm really trying to get flexible and to get my splits but im not flexible at all even tho I've danced my whole life... could you film a stretch routine or something pleassse, btw love u and ur channel ♡️

9:42 the kid in every class with ADHD😂😂 (kinda me ngl)

Ur lyrical class seems so fun to hang with i love them

U are such an amazing teacher! U have that connection with your students and that is so important! As an ex-dancer, I remember dancing my best for the teachers that were in tune with my feelings and cared about me as a person, not just a dancer filling a spot on stage. Excellent 👌👍❣️❣️❣️ I love your videos girl!

You seem like the teacher everybody loves and wants to take classes with... 😍

I love how inthusiactic u are girl

Your students are very lucky to have such a great dance teacher

Luna iam so proud of you how much you're generous and kind and you work hard you're an example for those little girls may god bless you ❤️❤️❤️

OMG IM GOING TO CRY 😭 I’m a dancer too and it’s a dream of mine to be a dance teacher! ❤️I’ve been dancing for 8 years and I’m on a competitive team! You are amazing 🔥. Love you!

You seem like such a good teacher and role model -- I bet your students absolutely adore you

Omg I love how you teach you explain everything so good and have amazing choreos and exersices. I'd love to have you as my danceteacher ❤ Could you please make a video with the warming up/ stretch you teach your kids in the beginning of the class because it looks so good!!! ❤❤❤

Yesssss the song they’re dancing to is the best

how long are the classes you teach? you get so much more done than my teacher does lol

i would love a video of what workout/warm-ups you do!!

ok but those dancers are amazing

It looks like you're such a good teacher, kids just seem to love you so much

the way lucky wags his tail at 1:18 🥺🥺

o my god how could someone be this pretty

I LOVE videos like this- seeing your working process and watching the girls learn is so interesting to me!

such a beautiful studio omg!!

i teach to a group of 6-8 years old and they’re THIRTY girls, we are three teachers and it’s impossible for us to hve them to be quiet 🥺

dang i’m so impressed by how your keep everyone under control! i could never

Luna: Coconut and vanilla, so yummy Me: wait she eats deodorant 😂

omg in the first stretching montage time lapse thing all the stretches lined up with the music haha that's great

Recently I told my dance teacher that I want become dance teacher in the future. I received so much support from him. I am so grateful. Luna you are doing an awsome work. I hope that one day youre student come to you and said '' I want be a dance teacher like you. ''

lmao kai is me “I don’t like this light”🤣😭😭😭

Luna I literally love your videos and you inspire me everyday not only in ballet but in life itself❤️

I think you're going to be the best teacher ever luna! You know the struggles both mentally and physically with dance, I can't wait to see you grow even more as a teacher😊😊😊💕💕💕

I need a environment like this, i tried one where it was working you too hard and no fun the one i'm at one now it is all chill and no working. But you let them have fun and work hard. That's what i need.

Could you do a video on stretches for ballet please?

I love your teaching videos! 💃🏼 Id love to see more of how you structure and plan your classes in a video, it seems so organic for you and there's nothing like it on RU-vid x

I’m so glad you are loving yourself now you’re beautiful

i am a senior in high school and i am not doing ballet next year but this made me want to get a summer job as a dance teacher somewhere

I’m watching during quarantine, and it’s making me miss my dance class and dance friends!

as a dancer, i can tell she would be the best kind of dance teacher to have

I do ballet and lyrical and I love it! Also you are such a good teacher!❤️

Seeing the classes is super interesting, please make more of these

LUNAAA Im so hyped u have to do as country Spain AJAJJA im from Spain so having my idol (u) dancing to Rosalia and like representing my country makes me feel amazing :) ily❤️❤️❤️

I took a jazz/lyrical class for 2 years so all of this is so familiar and it makes me miss taking classes!

I love your Jazz across the floor and warmup! 💕

Being a teacher is the most difficult and the best job ever

I would kill to have you ask my ballet teacher, don't get me wrong I LOVE my teachers but you seem like so much fun!

just watching this makes me miss dance... I danced for my studios performing company for 7 years and I miss it so much

I was a teacher assistant when I was 14 and I'm now a substitute dance teacher (16) I totally understand how hard it is to get kids to quiet down especially if you're younger because they don't respect you as much as an adult! Kudos to you girly!
