Usually when it comes to artistic sports like gymnastics cheerleading and ballet movies overexaggerate, the part about mean coaches are usually not true, and other athletes in the industry are always supportive of each other (at least for me, ive never met a mean degrading co-athlete when I was cheering)
smileforhiba there's not mean they just have very strict things they want out of you, like my ballet instructor is a professional ballerina so she is a little rough sometimes but she's amazing
Sarah Katie But Lucie is pretty tall tho isn't she? I'm 5'8 and even that is taller then what's prefered. But sure, if Lucie had danced as a kid and untill now, she would've probably been a really good dancer! She did a really good job remember the choreography👏 God, I miss balette so much! 😔 I need to dance again!
Omg! For a person who has never ever dance ballet she did a great job. I saw people still struggling with simple choreography moves after a year of practice.
This is my biggest unfulfilled dream in life. I was so eager to learn but I met a ballet teacher once and she told me that I could never be a ballerina because of a small problem with my leg that I had. I was 4 years old.
Angelica Rufus it was never dangerous on the contrary it would be beneficial. as a kid I couldn't walk quite straight and in her eyes I wasn't 'graceful enough' to learn ballet but I was only 4, I grew up to walk perfectly fine, her opinion just held me back from pursuing activities like dancing or running for many years because I was afraid of looking like a fool. I am too old to start ballet now I'm 23 but it's okay I just wish that people were more encouraging instead of creating such complexities to others
people: ballet is so easy. all you are doing is jump around a stage in a little tutu... ballerina: beats person with point shoes and jetés away, gracefully...
LOVE that Lucie acknowledged how hard dancing is and that a person doesn't become a dancer (or go en pointe) in a day. Favorite Lucie video I fink (hahaha)
I love how everyone is always laughing with Lucie in Lucie's videos Look at the ballerina here! She can't stop xD. Lucie looks like one of the nicest people in NYC hahaha :)
When she put on the pointe shoes I freaked out bc I know how hard it is to be in them(I'm a competitive dancer) and I felt a lot better when she said she wasn't going to dance in them.
@@user-ck3xp4lv3r It still is. She has a natural way of unfolding in large gestures and is well-composed in proportion. I began ballet at the age of 15 and never got that turnout naturally as she does, not even by cheating. Also, my physics are not as outstretched but more compact. If she took lessons seriously, she would soon be good at bar-less adagio.
@@user-ck3xp4lv3r Yes, I know. People with long, thin legs tend to look more flexible than they are at first. One can still say that she put her extremities quite well together for the first time. I wish you a lot of joy persuing your dance furtheron!
YES. I’m a ballerina (not professionally cause I’m 12 😂) I’ve been taking ballet and dance classes in general since I was 2, so this is my tenth year of dance. This is a great video that showcases how hard being a ballerina really is.
Thank you so much for recognizing how much time and effort it takes to do ballet I have been doing it for 7 years and I have class 4 days a week and rehearsals all the time
what perfect timing! I went to see my cousin's ballet recital, they all looked so graceful and long but you could definitely tell it was not easy to do, good job Lucie!
I am 59 yrs old and did RAD Gr 5 exam this morning. After dancing for 6 yrs as I child I went back 5 yrs ago in an adult class. In Sep 2016 my teachers recommended I work towards an exam. This was harder and more work than any of the half-and full marathons I did in race walking. One is never too old to do ballet, but only those who start young will be able to attain the standard required for professional dancing. I do it for the psychological and physical benefit and have never felt better.
I love this video!! you are right Lucie, ballet is so hard but beautiful. I took the art for 4 years and it was so much fun and something I continue to be passionate about! love all your videos and enjoy seeing you explore new things.
MY FAVOURITE PART IS STRETCHING!! Everything else is blood ( not a lot so chill XD), sweat, tears and sewing your pointe shoe ribbons on again and again and again...
Lucie fink has he biggest cajones ever dancing on camera with isabella boyleston.Like combining playing violin with olympic gymnastics at the same time.GO lucie and stan bella
Lucie is doing very well for her first time doing ballet! Of course her technique could be better, but for a beginner she’s doing amazing. Was impressed.
I love pointe so much I have been doing pointe for about two years. I go though about at least five pairs of pointe shoes a week. It was fun watching Lucy try to do a bun and just learning the dance. I’m 11 years old and I have danced since the age of 2 and it makes it easier to star young so I give lucky major respect for trying the dance.❤️😘
I freaked out about the Pointe shoes when I heard that she wasn’t going to dance in them I was already dead. At the end I was scared of when she went on the Pointe shoes for a second..
great job for your first time! you put a lot of efort in that and i could tell my self am doing ballet and getting red for point even though im only 10 years great gob!!!!!
This was really cool! I used to take ballet, contemporary, and tap, but I had to give them up due to injury and getting my first horse. I'm not sure if this has happened yet, but I would love to see her try equestrian! I think it would be really interesting. Have a good day everyone! ❤💛💚💜💙
I loved that! I started at eight and lasted until I was 26, eight years as a pro and then some teaching My teachers were great at helping one get the technic.
I think that this is proof that having a prefect ballet body doesn't automatically make you a good dancer. As I ballet dancer myself, I struggled and still struggle with not being thin enough (although I'm a normal weight). But I observed some how my thinner classmates didn't have as good technique or flexibility as me, even though they've took more ballet classes. In my ballet class I wasn't afraid to do mistakes because I knew inside my worth and what I'm capable of, and I've always tried not to let my "not ballerina" body stop me.
Oh thank god she said she wasn't going to dance in the pointe shoes. I was going to have a coronary lol. This is one video that really respects the art of ballet, instead of making it seem like anyone can be a ballerina.
I'm learning amateur ballet for nine years now and I think you did really good in your first try. I do think that you could be easily trained and you could be very good after a few years
eyyy!! it's Isabella Boylston!! even just looking through a couple of ballet videos on RUclips, I know her as one of the principal dancers at the ABT :) She's so pretty and graceful
Watching this video and I as a ballerina is such a fun video to look back at. I started like Lucie and she is right! It took many years to perfect a bun and get to pointe shoes
LoL I'm a ballet/modern dancer and I love when people try ballet. Makes me happy to see people have fun and try something new and get and understanding for what goes into the job ^^ I'm glad she didn't break an ankle en pointe though
She was awesome as a complete novice! If she took lessons I believe she could go far. People who have never trained for ballet have no idea how very difficult it is and how disciplined one has to be to perfect this art.
Lucy's Job is amazing. I've been a dancer for 10 years but I've never done ballet. Yes I did some ballet stretches and workouts, and for the past 2 years I have been doing ballet exercises for my self, but ok not a ballerina. I wish I had a job like Lucy, to go and take lessons from ballet professionals and make videos about it. Lucky Lucy
I was watching one of her other videos and then she uploaded this so I finished that video then I watched this video and now I am planning to watch another video made from her
Omg when she started to tie the pointe shoes, I literally yelled, out loud, “NO” because I did not want to see an ER visit go down lol. Trust me. I know how hard it is to dance en pointe. God lol
Omgggg.. I thought that the Isabel was Chloe bc I wasn't rly paying attention and I was watching from the corner of my eye. Once she came in I was like CHLOEEEE? Lmaoooo😂😂
I feel as if not everyone understands how difficult and physically demanding ballet is. I did it for 5 years, so I got a little glimpse into how much work it takes to be a ballerina. Movies and TV shows try to glorify dance, but they don’t show you the cracked toes, missing toenails and sore feet.
When I saw the pointe shoes I was like "Uh gurl. Your ankles are going to snap like twigs." As a person that has never professionally danced ballet I know enough about dancing en pointe to realise it is extremely difficult and takes YEARS of training. ^-^
I have been dancing ballet for 9 years and have just completed my elementary ballet exam I have been dancing on pointe for 4 years I started on soft pointes at age 8 and got my real ones at 10 my feet are a size 3 because I started to early and covered in blisters and cuts so be careful when U start and don't rush into it wait until your teacher says ure legs are strong enough .
Seeing this makes me think she should have done ballet, for a first try she's got really amazing qualities and the fact that she could even copy what Isabella was doing without using the wrong leg etc was pretty impressive. And she's totally got the body too, I'm jealous haha
such a cute video, always wanted to be a classical dance ballerina, tool modern dancing, but I still looked like an idiot dancing. loved your attitude :)
Her turnout is actually ridiculously good for a first timer
Priya Garmhausen turnout is natural so it makes sense
@@Alyssa-qk8kf lol you'd be surprised
Ikr
I dead ass train six days a week and she still has a better turn out. I’m not mad...you are
I know im so jealous
i dont know why i thought ballerinas and ballet trainers are mean and have issues (i blame movies)
but this ballerina seems so positive and sweet
Most ballet teachers are very nice and supportive of dancers
because were cold people
i guess lmao
Usually when it comes to artistic sports like gymnastics cheerleading and ballet movies overexaggerate, the part about mean coaches are usually not true, and other athletes in the industry are always supportive of each other (at least for me, ive never met a mean degrading co-athlete when I was cheering)
smileforhiba there's not mean they just have very strict things they want out of you, like my ballet instructor is a professional ballerina so she is a little rough sometimes but she's amazing
It kind of depends... I’ve had both- but the ones who are mean only want you to get better, their critisism is actually a good thing
If Lucy had started as a kid, she could probably be a world class ballerina! She has the perfect body for it.
right?! she's so skinny, #goalsaf
Not really her body per portions aren't the best and she would struggle on pointe with the arch of her foot
Sarah Katie But Lucie is pretty tall tho isn't she? I'm 5'8 and even that is taller then what's prefered. But sure, if Lucie had danced as a kid and untill now, she would've probably been a really good dancer! She did a really good job remember the choreography👏 God, I miss balette so much! 😔 I need to dance again!
Angelica Rufus as a ballerina my self you don't have to be short I have a dance teacher that is 5'8
Family Boggs my ballet teacher is 5"3
This is one of the best "random person tries ballet" videos!! Respectful, informative, safe!! Good job refinery29, Lucie, and Isabella!
Omg! For a person who has never ever dance ballet she did a great job. I saw people still struggling with simple choreography moves after a year of practice.
Ida C same college kids take dance for credits boy that was entertaining but watching them progress is priceless ballet is so enjoyable
She is annoyingly pretty 😭😭
made me SO nervous when she startes lacing the shoes and i was like NO NO NO NO but then she was like I'm not dancing in them today t god lol
This is my biggest unfulfilled dream in life. I was so eager to learn but I met a ballet teacher once and she told me that I could never be a ballerina because of a small problem with my leg that I had. I was 4 years old.
queeneva3 Oh no! You have to go out there and do what you really want! Unless it's really dangerous for your foot ofcourse!
Angelica Rufus it was never dangerous on the contrary it would be beneficial. as a kid I couldn't walk quite straight and in her eyes I wasn't 'graceful enough' to learn ballet but I was only 4, I grew up to walk perfectly fine, her opinion just held me back from pursuing activities like dancing or running for many years because I was afraid of looking like a fool. I am too old to start ballet now I'm 23 but it's okay I just wish that people were more encouraging instead of creating such complexities to others
queeneva3 Oh I'm so sorry to hear that 😔
Never too old to follow your dreams. Sounds cliche, but its true.
prove her wrong! learn and enjoy it 💕
people: ballet is so easy. all you are doing is jump around a stage in a little tutu...
ballerina: beats person with point shoes and jetés away, gracefully...
Accurate
Pointe is so painful😫 but beautiful
Kendall Ford I love pointe but hate it
Ikr. I can do the leg up on something and make my foot pointe like
Pointe isn't actually too bad if you do it right, and like anything you get used to it!
our studio doesn’t allow students younger than 13 to take pointe so yeah
#prepointesqaud #demipointeshoes
Rainbow Nya same
As a pre-professional ballerina this was really entertaining to watch! Lucy did pretty good for an adult and Isabella is an icon in the ballet world!
LOVE that Lucie acknowledged how hard dancing is and that a person doesn't become a dancer (or go en pointe) in a day. Favorite Lucie video I fink (hahaha)
"When your outfit is on point, your life is en pointe"
This was great!!! She actually did things that actual ballerinas do! She didn't just put on a tutu and Pointe shoes and fumble around. Loved it!
lucie you have such a good physique for a dancer wow
I've been dancing for 12 years and on pointe for 4 1/2. She was actually pretty good for one lesson, if she had started earlier she would be amazing!
I love how everyone is always laughing with Lucie in Lucie's videos Look at the ballerina here! She can't stop xD. Lucie looks like one of the nicest people in NYC hahaha :)
When she put on the pointe shoes I freaked out bc I know how hard it is to be in them(I'm a competitive dancer) and I felt a lot better when she said she wasn't going to dance in them.
Shayne Gray lol i suffered even more being a pre-professional ballet dancer
she's surprisingly flexible for someone who's never done it before
am i the only one who notice how great lucie's hip rotation was???? 💕
@@user-ck3xp4lv3r It still is. She has a natural way of unfolding in large gestures and is well-composed in proportion. I began ballet at the age of 15 and never got that turnout naturally as she does, not even by cheating. Also, my physics are not as outstretched but more compact. If she took lessons seriously, she would soon be good at bar-less adagio.
@@user-ck3xp4lv3r Yes, I know. People with long, thin legs tend to look more flexible than they are at first. One can still say that she put her extremities quite well together for the first time. I wish you a lot of joy persuing your dance furtheron!
Lucie is the cutest!! "5 days of..." and "Lucie for hire" are my favourite things to watch on RUclips 😍💕
I love how Lucie stressed that it takes years and years to perfect what a ballet dancer does. Thank youuuuu
I'm so glad that Lucy finally did a video on ballet, I do ballet and I am so glad that this video helps show people how hard ballet really is.
After watching this, I now really want to go see Swan Lake. :-)
TheMovieMyLife you're everywhere 😂
TheMovieMyLife really recomend it ... i have danced a part in it aswell but not the professionel one tho im not that Good of a ballett dancer 😅😂
I've seen the Swan Lake in Russia, where my family lives, its amazing!!
almost went into cardiac arrest when they brought the pointe shoes out.....
A little piece of me panicked when she had pointe shoes on in the beginning, but you did so well! Good job, Lucie! 😊
Ballerinas are super strong! I didn't think it was that hard until I started taking ballet classes as a workout.
YES. I’m a ballerina (not professionally cause I’m 12 😂) I’ve been taking ballet and dance classes in general since I was 2, so this is my tenth year of dance. This is a great video that showcases how hard being a ballerina really is.

Do a video where Lucie tries to be a gymnast.
my friday just got so much better !💓
Mikela I. I
Please do one of these episodes as an opera singer! That would be awesome! 😊
Rahel Erki omg that would be amazing! I️ train classically so it would be really cool to see Lucy give it a go

As a dancer I was excited to see you try to do all the hard work
Over all I think you did great😃👍

i love how she's actually respectful towards dancing :') this is so wholesome
How can lucie jump that high on her first time? I CAN'T EVEN DO HALF OF THAT TT
Lucie fink has he biggest cajones ever dancing on camera with isabella boyleston.Like combining playing violin with olympic gymnastics at the same time.GO lucie and stan bella
Lucie is doing very well for her first time doing ballet! Of course her technique could be better, but for a beginner she’s doing amazing. Was impressed.
3:42 The way you combining ballet with skating, that was very outstanding improvisation and innovation in the world of ballet 👏😆
Just Fin What do you mean
You were amazing! It takes forever to learn those moves.....I loved your turnout for your barre work and your piirouette!! Magnificent!
I love pointe so much I have been doing pointe for about two years. I go though about at least five pairs of pointe shoes a week. It was fun watching Lucy try to do a bun and just learning the dance.

She has a perfect build for ballet oh my goodness!!

The ballet pun though😂👌🏼when your outfit is on point your life is on pointe👌🏼

I’m a simple person. I see Lucie, I click.
"In a few years I might be a principal dancer too!"
Me: . . .
I have done dance since I was two years old. I started with ballet. I love it.
LoL I'm a ballet/modern dancer and I love when people try ballet. Makes me happy to see people have fun and try something new and get and understanding for what goes into the job ^^ I'm glad she didn't break an ankle en pointe though
I LOVE LUCIE !
haha my whole body used to crack when i was warming up and doing barre work and my teacher was always like "was that you, lynn?!"
She was awesome as a complete novice! If she took lessons I believe she could go far. People who have never trained for ballet have no idea how very difficult it is and how disciplined one has to be to perfect this art.
She didn't do too bad. Her pink tutu was great and she kept practicing as she learned.

when i saw that it was Isabella i got so exited, i love her
Them hip bones tho 👌🏽
im becoming a fan of lucy. im watching the playlist.i love the content
My ballet teacher always reminds us " ballerinas do not have thumbs!!!!!!"😂😂😂😂
I was watching one of her other videos and then she uploaded this so I finished that video then I watched this video and now I am planning to watch another video made from her
Lucie is honestly my idol lol
I love to dance and so I have Pointe Shoes. They are kind of painful but fun to twirl around with!
Omg when she started to tie the pointe shoes, I literally yelled, out loud, “NO” because I did not want to see an ER visit go down lol. Trust me. I know how hard it is to dance en pointe. God lol
Omgggg.. I thought that the Isabel was Chloe bc I wasn't rly paying attention and I was watching from the corner of my eye. Once she came in I was like CHLOEEEE? Lmaoooo😂😂
Isabella Boylsten😍
It was tea/Chinese from the nutcracker during the first part which was warm ups. And I love that song. I did a dance to it off my studio
Isabella seems so nice!
Lucy's arabesque though ! Impressed
Ok... Lucie actually did really well for someone who doesn't take ballet👌👌
Going to abt in New York this summer for their intensive! I'm super excited
I LOVE that black and orange tutu!
You did awesome Lucie! 💕
I have been dancing ballet since I was a baby, and I think she was really good for her first time!😍
I feel as if not everyone understands how difficult and physically demanding ballet is. I did it for 5 years, so I got a little glimpse into how much work it takes to be a ballerina. Movies and TV shows try to glorify dance, but they don’t show you the cracked toes, missing toenails and sore feet.
I do ballet and I am training to get en pointe
cara cennelsfort it is very hard but it's so worth it! Good luck!
cara cennelsfort same i got my point shoes yesterday and my first pointe class is today
how old are u?
I'm in Pointe and it's hard but it's so cool.I wish u luck
When I saw the pointe shoes I was like "Uh gurl. Your ankles are going to snap like twigs." As a person that has never professionally danced ballet I know enough about dancing en pointe to realise it is extremely difficult and takes YEARS of training. ^-^
I’ve been waiting to go on pointe for years but she goes on instantly
Lauren Hastie she didn’t go on instantly they were just showing her the shoes.
Since Lucy has never done ballet I think she did pretty good this is coming From a ballet dancer
I have been dancing ballet for 9 years and have just completed my elementary ballet exam I have been dancing on pointe for 4 years I started on soft pointes at age 8 and got my real ones at 10 my feet are a size 3 because I started to early and covered in blisters and cuts so be careful when U start and don't rush into it wait until your teacher says ure legs are strong enough .
DALIVSTER what is soft pointe?
ccap3211 soft pointes are like pointe shoes but without the hard part
Isabella 😍😍😍
1:32 is the purest part ever, I live for it
She was actually very good I am so surprised, I’ve been doing for six years now.
Seeing this makes me think she should have done ballet, for a first try she's got really amazing qualities and the fact that she could even copy what Isabella was doing without using the wrong leg etc was pretty impressive. And she's totally got the body too, I'm jealous haha
such a cute video, always wanted to be a classical dance ballerina, tool modern dancing, but I still looked like an idiot dancing. loved your attitude :)
