Ballerinas By Night
United States
Приєднався 8 лют 2013
Ballerinas By Night is a support community for adult ballet dancers, started in 2013 by Jana Carson and Abby Hudgins - student and teacher turned best friends! Our goal is to provide helpful and relatable videos for dancers who are beginning, returning, or continuing ballet as an adult (though all ages are welcome!).
In the fall of 2021 Abby decided to take a step back from creating here at BBN. We hope you continue to enjoy all of Abby's valuable class videos for years to come!
Want to get in touch? Email Jana at ballerinasbynight@gmail.com or send a DM on Instagram

Nice choreography! You are all at a good level
Is this channel no more?
I am 11 and got fitted yesterday hehehe
I did it exactly like this, except instead of putting bobby pins in your head, I just used a scrunchie to put around the bun, it's up pretty good 😂
I am on pointe I’m a beginner on pointe so I needed this thx !
Started ballet a year ago and today's my one-year anniversaryyyyyy! Lots of love to people who gathered the courage to try it, or anything new to you! ❤
🩰
thank you :)

Great instructional video. I'm 62 yo and want to get back into ballet
Is it just me or did she go way to fast
Thank you so much!
your color combo is BEAUTIFUL!!
That weight forward tip was gold!!! I had an immediate difference
This Is great, thank you for inspiration 🤩🤩✨✨
😢😢😢im not working im😭😭😭😭
It was one of those days where I randomly wrote on Google: "How to dance with a cat" and this video was the first result
Show it from audience seeing the back side of the dancer. Thanks!
Thankyou very helpful
cristal's mom teaching ballet.
Well dang! Y’all are grand! I kinda wonder how long you’ve been taking lessons because you’ve mastered some pretty complex moves. Congrats and thanks for sharing.
Your cat 🥰🐈🥰🐈🥰
I haven’t heard from Jana hope she is ok
I reeeeeaaaallly wanna go next year. Like reaaallllyyyy
seeing the older lady at around 9:48 really made me smile, she was dressed so cutely and looked like she was having a lot of fun!
Okay not impressed this didn’t help me at all It’s only cos my tie things weren’t separated
Helped alot!
Lovely performance, would love to know the musics please 😊
Do you know of any colleges that offer ballet specifically as a minor?
Thank you sm!! I keep messing up with the stretch, this definitely helpes me improve my stretch at the barre thanks!
How close together are the foam blocks? Looks like every 2 feet? Or every 1 foot? Thx
I prefer ballet music.
I started ballet as a 68 year-old male. It’s completely changed my body awareness. I’m more flexible, I’m inspired to stick to a fitness routine, my balance is better and it’s just great fun. I’m patient and a little realistic about how much I can do but I’m working consistently and with discipline to improve centimeter by centimeter. Lots of people think I’m a bit nutty but everyone thinks it’s great. I’m completely behind the view that it’s not too late to start. Just set rational goals and expectations and go for it!
I did ballet for about 12 years… been out of it for ten years now and was just looking up pas de bourree… this is such an amazing tutorial and brought back all my skills!!! Thank you!!!
I'm 21, started taking ballet mixed with salsa classes. I have NO balance. 😅 Definitely gonna try these exercises at home. Thank you for the tips! ❤️
This was great. Thanks.
You are super, it's very helpful. Thanks so much!
Love this!!!! I used to do fancy foot work on pointe back in the day 😂 Today....lol
amazing
So fun and lovely to watch, thanks for sharing ❤
