    Hi I'm Kathryn!
    I am a former soloist with the New York City Ballet and Miami City Ballet. When I was a young student, I was always looking for insights into the ballet world and how to improve my dancing as well as beauty and lifestyle tips. Now that I am a professional, it is my turn to share.
    On my channel I make ballet, beauty, and lifestyle videos for everyone of all ages. My goal is help dancers improve and achieve their dreams as well as open up the ballet world to non dancers. Let's bring the joy back to ballet! You will see many different kinds of videos here including ballet classes, workouts, Q and A sessions, life advice, performances, beauty tutorials, technique tips, and more. I hope you find all of my videos helpful!

    I love how Katie says "you're doing great!" etc in these videos - she can't see what we're doing, but she's such a freaking beacon of positivity that she just *assumes* that everyone is marvellous. More of that in the world please!

      I laughed about this as I watched from my recliner with my glass of wine. I will try and live up to Katie's expectations tomorrow though when I go through some of these exercises at my barre. I especially love the attitude/passe exercise without moving the back. I think this will really be beneficial for me!

      @@kathryn_morgan Further bootcamps ideas:
      1) extensions = developpé front & side as suggested by Giulia.
      2) stronger/higher jumps to improve all kinds of allegro
      3) Strong core for épaulement, aplomb and general posture
      4) Balance and turns
      5) ankle and calf strength = articulated foot work and strong pointe work

  • @nefwaenre

    Believe it or not, i think swimmers have an advantage to arabesque. For me, arabesque is one of the things i can always do properly, since day 1. It has to do with me doing back arches and swimming all my life. Also as a belly dancer, doing back arches came naturally so that helps with arabesque. It's the develope a face that drives me nuts, when i elongate my legs the height drops...

    • @abee948
      @abee948 Год назад

      Yeah, my extensions all around are ok, considering my flexibility and strength, but arabesque was always a little easier because you get a lot of that strength in swimming!

    Thank you!!! I have very long work days involving teaching (standing on my feet a lot) interspersed with driving from one school to the other (sitting in a constrained spot a lot), so my back 100% needed this!!!
    Edited: Maybe a boot camp on how to get deeper demi plies, please? They make jumps so much easier.

  • @angelsapphire6088
    @angelsapphire6088 Год назад +7

    I needed this ! Thank you - I will do this video religiously!
    I had a question: We are starting to do beats in my ballet classes and I can barely do a Royale. Would it be possible in the future if you made a video for it? Jumps are a struggle for me regardless but with beats- its like I overthink them or just my legs only want to do changements.

    • @katherinedobias7499
      @katherinedobias7499 Год назад +2

      I just learned this a few weeks ago and i was overthinking it too. The work is not in the feet but in the thighs. For the royale you're not switching feet but rather squeezing your thighs together like you're holding a paper between them, and when the thigh muscles are squeezed really hard on that jump, it causes your feet to move on their own as a reflex. It's like when the doctor taps your knee and your leg reflexes go up. Somehow the muscle in your thigh causes your feet to move like that. I hope I'm explaining it well. I also try to feel my feet overcross while i squeeze my thighs together during the jump

    • @autisticdancer
      @autisticdancer Год назад +1

      I've been doing beating jumps for a while now and I feel embarrassed saying I still have no idea how you are supposed to do jumps where you have to do like 6 beats in the air. I understand the basic ones where you are only doing 2 to 3 beats in the air. But I have no idea how you are supposed to do more than three beats in the air and at this point I'm too afraid to ask because I feel like at this point I *should* already know how to do that.

    Ditto on a boot cap for Penche. Perhaps also for extensions, not just being able to hold them but also to lengthen. And maybe even a graceful port de bras one. I know you did one many years ago and I still love it and watch it.

    On exercise at 4:53, lifting the legs, it's much more effective if the knees are locked out fully straight. Makes it much harder, in fact you may not even leave the ground at all, but it's the effort that counts.

    Can you help? I think I have movement dyslexia? I have a hard time moving in the right direction. No matter how hard I concentrate, I end up moving the wrong way. I practice over and over but still have difficulty! Is there anything I can do for this? Has anyone ever heard of such a thing? Thanks for responses from anyone!

    • @larissaswayze
      @larissaswayze Год назад

      Hi! I don’t know if I can help but reading your comment I just want to say how frustrating that sounds! Have you ever talked to a doctor or physiotherapist or other body expert about this? There could be something going on with how your brain communicates with your body. If it’s not something neurological it may just be that you need to think about direction in a different way. If thinking left or right doesn’t work try thinking how you’re moving in space. For example, in a studio think “I’m going to move toward the mirror” or toward the barre or the door, etc. Anything that can act as a landmark for you focus on that instead. Another idea is perhaps tying something on your wrist or ankle that can remind you which way to go. It might just be that your brain thinks of direction in a different way. And that’s totally okay! But I also would consider speaking to a professional if it seems like a problem you can’t solve on your own. Good luck!

    • @lilacfairy121
      @lilacfairy121 Год назад +1

      Dear Julianne, I am a dance and yoga instructor, I am over 40 years old and professionally trained in ballet and contemporary and a certified dance instructor and yoga therapist and in all my years of experience and studying physiology and body movement I have never heard of something like "movement dyslexia". I can understand what you mean and I understand that you feel weird and uncomfortable. If you don't have problems with movement in your daily life (going to work, to the grocery store, doing your hair, etc.) then in my opinion there is no problem with your brain or your body. Beginners often have a hard time learning ballet or dancing in general and I have seen lots of beginners giving up because they were not able to coordinate the movement or the steps given by the teacher. I myself have made the experience that when I train ballet and I am overthinking the steps that it makes it much harder or my body sometimes even blocks completely (and then I also choose the wrong foot or direction). On another hand there is something called body memory and it works with different parts of our brain and nervous system. When we dance, we use this part of the brain more, and when activated through practicing consistently, the body can then itself remember the movement and complete it almost on its own. I think that you are a completely normal person and I encourage you to take your time and explore movement slowly and I invite you to feel every movement in your body instead of thinking about it. Try to go slow and try to feel into how a certain step feels in your whole body. Dancing is not for completing steps, dancing is for feeling our bodies. With more and more practice in feeling the movement, your body will be able to remember the feeling of a certain step. Be aware that everyone is different and everyone has an individual way of learning and moving. Sending you much love!

      Dear Lilac, Thank you for sharing your expertise and for your very thoughtful response. You sound like a wonderful instructor. You echo many of my instructor’s tips about muscle memory. I keep practicing and waiting for muscle memory to kick in. In my fourth year of training, I’m feeling better than I did at first. Now that I’ve identified the problem and have your inspiration, I feel better. It’s called visual spatial dyslexia, a learning disability. I have 8 of the 12 characteristics.

    So, I have a very tight lower back, short torso, and scoliosis. Arabesques have always been a struggle. When I'm doing the exercises on the floor, trying to keep my heels together is nearly impossible. My legs naturally spread wide apart when I do floor work on my stomach. Is it better that I work keeping my legs together as much as I can even though my heels can't touch or, should I put a slight bend in my knees so my heels can touch?
