I'm so exited for all the ballet content to come and like am so happy for her, this is such a great step/start to her career

@esmereldak8418 3 года назад

i cant believe you do all this scary new stuff and stay positive the whole time!

@dancingwithmackenzie 3 года назад

surprisingly it hasnt been hard to stay positive… yet! 🤣 its been a really great few weeks here so far :)

@eduardasartorio8932 3 года назад

@@dancingwithmackenzie hiii Mack, how is it going? Hope you’re doing great!! I’m a Brazilian subscriber of you since 2020 (I believe) and I’m currently a pre-pro ballet dancer! Ik it sounds a little bit inappropriate but may I ask if you’re paid for being a trainee in the company you’re currently dancing with? It’s because I’m looking up for some companies to audition for and I wanted to give it a try for this one! I hope you feel to answer this type of question (it will definitely help me a lot) but if not it’s okay then… Stay safe! ♥️

As a ballet student I actually have asthma it’s hard for me to do all dances fast I believe in my self and the asthma went when I was 5 I started dancing!

@ajogoz 3 года назад

I can really see the happiness and calm in your eyes now that you’re on to the next stage in your journey. Obviously training with a company, work will be a priority and none of us are expecting intricate vlogs, much less filming class. So so so happy for you!

@rebekahnewman3876 3 года назад

It is so crazy to see you in the studio I first learned ballet in through their adult dance program ❤️❤️

@anne-sofie546 3 года назад

Could you do a video on, what exactly a ballet trainee does? Do you get paid? Or is it like an internship? What is the proces like? How long will you be there? What will you be doing?

@maddymil2519 2 года назад

I am probably wrong, but I don’t think ballet trainees get paid. Like she said earlier in the video, she was going to do some work.

@alialr5339 2 года назад

I'm also a ballet trainee and in my country we don't get paid. We have to pay a lot of school fees.

@jenlouise1831 3 года назад

Proud simply doesn’t cut it! Your growth has been so insane, and watching you get better and better has been such a privilege! Good luck with this next chapter in your dance career and I think I speak for everyone when I say I have the most confidence that you will go on and excel at everything you do. Sending love and hugs from the UK ❤️

@starsupontheland 3 года назад

You were one of the first RU-vidrs I watched when I was just figuring out I wanted to be professional in ballet (I'm a late starter). It's been so incredible watching your amazing journey. I'm a couple years younger than you and I'm far behind you in terms of technique (I started pointe a few months ago), but I hope eventually I'll be able to dance in a company.

@emilybruhn3069 3 года назад

I would love to hear about how being a trainee works and when you will be a member of the company if that makes sense? Love your videos! Newly subscribed!

@SmillyDonut 3 года назад

I think the training programme thing is for a year. If I remember correctly she pla mns to use the time to decide if she definitely wants to pursue ballet professionally or not.

have you ever considered styling your hair as curly? because based on that first clip I think that may be your texture (I have curly hair myself) 😊

hey! for those of us who are also moving or going to college for the first time, how do you deal with like loneliness and living alone/away from your family?

@nicolelorrayne2436 3 года назад

i’ve been living on my own for 2 years now and what really helps is building a community in your new place! like at college, join a club or just introduce yourself to people on campus. if just moving, go to a coffee shop or find something you’re interested in (for example, if you dance, find an adult dance class and introduce yourself to others) you will get homesick but not as often. hope this helps❤️

I'm going to Idyllwild Arts Academy as a dance major to study ballet for high school and one thing I'm worried about is not auditioning for different companies like studio company or training divisions to get in to companies if that makes sense how did you become a trainee without going to their school before?

Since its the start of the season we don’t have a super big production coming up so theres really no point in overworking your body. I will say when youre training you’ll take lots more classes but as you get older you have to work smarter not harder to ensure you have a long healthy career!
