🩰 they said I was "too old" to be a ballerina, so I created an entire adult ballet academy instead.
Does this sound familiar? You've always dreamed of wearing the tutus and dancing on stage but life took over and you've never set foot in a ballet class so at this point... it seems way too late to be an aspiring ballerina now.
Or maybe you've taken an adult ballet classes or two but constantly still feel insecure about most of what you're doing (they either don't take you seriously at all or seem angry with you for not picking it up right away).
And if you've ever been singled out or shamed by a teacher for your weight, your age, your lack of training or some other ridiculous reason that left you feeling embarrassed and scared to go back, you're not alone.

Wonderful & beautiful video as usual! 🥹🌸🩰
thank you so much! glad you enjoyed<3
Not me singing the tune from the end of the Nutcracker when it was played. Having been involved in seemingly a million Nutcracker productions (not dancing!) for so long, the music is INSIDE OF ME 😂
I expect nothing less of such a talented singer <3
No hate but idk anything about ballet - why are the red sweats or whatever rolled down ? Like for comfort or like ??
I just rolled them down because they're a little baggy and like them to have a more fitted vibe (was a particularly popular style when I was growing up, idk if people still do this anymore lol)
Ok thxxx lol
As you are aware…even calling yourself a yogi is a thing! 🙄 love your video as both a dancer 🩰 and yoga 🧘🏾♀️ teacher. XoXo
oh TOTALLY. thanks a million for the support!
I would love a virtual version of adult Ballett academy!! Very excited to hear more about it ☺️
that's very helpful to know! Thank you sharing that, I really look forward to offering it as soon as possible!
Hi Veronica, I recently found your channel and I’m so glad you popped up because your content is truly chef’s kiss - thank you for always being open and honest in a world where that’s extremely rare ❤ I wanted to ask you something - and please excuse me if this is a weird question, obviously you don’t have to answer if you don’t want to - is there a possibility that you might have ADHD (perhaps inattentive type, which is the one that’s more common in women)? I myself was diagnosed a couple of months ago (after I had been researching it for a long time & everything just kept making more and more sense as time went on) I’m asking you because in the very 1st min of this video, you mentioned a few things that made a lot of sense to my ADHD self: our attention spans being shot to hell, letting your dishes slowly pile up until it’s this insurmountable task, “struggling” to observe timelines when posting videos… Idk, perhaps these are all just coincidences (after all, ADHD symptoms are normal human behaviours - it’s when they are “too much” or when they make your life somewhat dysfunctional that issues arise), but tbh this is not the first time I happen to ask myself that question when watching a video of yours, so I figured, why not point this out, even if there’s just 1% probability that it could help you or someone else reading this out? I really hope this doesn’t come across as offensive, I just mean for it to be food for thought! 💕 PS excuse me for any mistakes I made, English isn’t my first language lol
oh dude, I for SURE fall under the ADHD umbrella lol. There are just some things I prefer to have boundaries with when sharing my life on the internet. But I really appreciate your kind heart wanting to help! That means so much, and thank you for watching my videos! and P.S. your english is excellent!
@@VeronicaViccora totally understand! I’m glad you appreciated that, thank *you* <3 btw thanks to your videos I’m going to start taking ballet lessons soon, at 23! I’m so excited 🥰
@@VeronicaViccora OH and in the end I did watch this one til the end, it was really interesting and I’m sorry about your injury, hope you recover very soon!
watching this vid while re sewing my pointe shoes for my first ballet class of this semester!✨🩷💞🍂
@@balletforlife3 ahhh! That’s so cozy 💕🎀🩰 have an incredible semester!!
Definitely love these vlogs!! I love the behind the scenes look at how you’ve planned these and what you have going on for it. Got my ticket for the upcoming ABA, I’m so excited!! 🥹✨
Love that you're doing this
Yay for adult ballet!!! 👏👏 So many places teach to children and teens only. However, a lot of these kids grow up and STILL have a love for ballet/dance, but the opportunities are gone.
Another vote for keeping these vlogs about the workshops going! I'm on a break from Adult Ballet at the moment (it's been over a year) because "life" however these vlogs keep me connected in my own way
You dance girl!! ❤ all the light and love for you in your path! You're doing great!
My Goddess I love this so much. Thank you!
I'm so glad you found it helpful! thank YOU for watching!
Such beautiful adult ballerinas! I hope to join y'all one day 💖
no matter where you are out there, I hope you're finding joy and fulfillment!<3
@@VeronicaViccora I just signed up for the fall workshop. So excited! 😍👏🏼👏🏼
You are creating change in the culture of adult ballet!! You are so inspiring! I have so much respect & admiration for you!❤ I’m an adult coming back to ballet. I was a yoga teacher for years and ended up needing a spinal fusion bc of back hyperextensions caused me to have a herniated disc. Ballet is something that makes my body feel good, and elongates my muscles. I love watching your videos. You’re so beautiful and creative!
wow! that sounds pretty scary but I'm glad you're okay now and doing what you love! thank you so much for the kindness and support - it really keeps me going!
The windows at the studio are soooo gorgeous 🥰 Are you familiar with Rachel Brice, she does Fusion style belly dance? Rachel was a yoga instructor for years before she became a dancer, and heavily incorporates yoga practice into her instruction now that she's a dance teacher. She did a double DVD back in the day called Serpentine, with a lot of focus on yoga as flexibility conditioning. I know you've recently started to teach yoga as part of your workshops, and I think it could be really helpful to do something similar to RB''s program, but specifically for adult beginner ballet dancers, focusing on flexibility, extension, warming up the muscles, conditioning, etc., for dancers trying to push new movements on older bodies. Love seeing the behind the scenes stuff from your workshops! ❤
RIGHT?! It was such a magical space! And I hadn't heard of her until your comment but just looked her up and I'm obsessed! Thanks for this great tip. I've been thinking a lot about blending more of my yoga training into ballet somehow so this is really giving me that much needed push - thank you so much!
@@VeronicaViccora ❤
My favorite youtuber/ballerina posted!!! 🩷🩷🩷 You are so inspiring to me! I have been watching your channel for a while and just wanted to say I see your improvement, you’re dancing more and more beautifully! You already are but you’re becoming an even more amazing ballerina 🤍
what a kind and wonderful human! Thank you SO much for this encouragement and support, it means the world!
the Semester idea sounds so good iam literally thinking about traveling from Germany to the us 😭imstill in school so this isn’t an actual possibility but iam just praying that this will go on so mabey in a year I will make it ☺but for now I’m just enjoying the videos and the virtual would be Awsome🕺🎀
omg! That would be incredible! I'm really hoping we'll have lots more in the future and hopefully the virtual one so you don't have to come all that way!
Do you happen to know how to do pump turns and fouettés by any chance?
fouettes a little bit but I'm not very good at them yet!
I’m obsessed with your positive content 💗💕💅🩰
thank you! your comments are always so sweet!!
Tutorial on your hair bun please?
If it helps, I did a shorts version here: ruclips.net/user/shorts1XyOcARYRhA
Your videos always motivate me <3
that's so wonderful to hear!! I hope you're out there living your dreams too!
Yay🎉 Another video 😊
Yay!! Glad to see you here again!
More of these 🙏 SO what I needed today.
The title though 😂😂😂😂 Alternative title: "Girl being told that she is too old to do ballet, what happens next is shocking" I am starting my ballet journey in October. This channel inspired to start this journey. I have already reached out to the teachers of the studio. They are so nice. I hope that many artists feel encouraged to start their journey, reach their goals and have fun while doing it. Artists make the world more creative and colorful.
Love this! 🙌🏼
ohhh! I wish you could help me brainstorm my title ideas haha! that's a brilliant one! And I'm soooooo so excited for you! taking those small baby steps towards your goals is going to make such a huge impact on your life and I can't wait to hear all about how it's going - send updates please!
Will do so!! We as adults face so many obstacles whe we want to do dance. When I did salsa for a few years I did it on and off but it's not like I wanted it that way. The classes were either at the same time as work or the school would be located super far from where I lived and I wouldn't make it on time for class. There is always something getting in the way. I did tango classes during that time just to keep dancing. Salsa is my favorite though. But I never gave up, I always sticked to it even when it all got super hard. As a reward I am now EXACTLY where I want be, and the dance school moved to an area that is sure near me, I can literally get there on feet in 15 minutes. Guys just keep going, don't focu on the bad stuff and it will all fall into place. I am starting ballet in October and I am 30. I hope I will workout as well as salsa did.@@VeronicaViccora
I remember when I did my first fouetté is was so fun, sending love ❤!
Thank you so much for watching!! I hope your enjoy these little behind the scenes of my workshops 💕 these are truly the highlights of my life!!! if you’re interested in joining one, you can find all the info here: www.veronicaviccora.com/aba
