*Lockdown dancer starter pack:* • Following Kathryn's awesome barre/centre videos • Slipping on wooden floors • Banging your knee while using the kitchen counter as a barre • Living in thermal socks to keep your ankles and feet warm • Dancing in your pajamas because they're comfy • Recovering from injuries due to accidental overworking :( • Binging dance performance videos to stay motivated :) • STILL forgetting to stretch!
Did anyone noticed the little change in Kathryn's bio? It's inspiring to know that it's never too late to follow your dreams if you work hard to accomplish them, and you're the living proof of it. Can't wait to see this video!
This was the first ballet I've done in probably 7+ years. The mood struck and I did this barefoot in my bedroom at age 30 with two children sleeping upstairs. Thanks, Kathryn. :)
I used to do ballet before I got my traumatic brain injury. Now, almost 2 years later, I got control back over my body and working on refining it still. Using your video and instruction has been incredibly good training for both my brain and my body and I enjoyed it a lot. I'm so happy to finally see and feel my body doing something I love again. Thanks!
This is exactly what I’ve been looking for! I dance for a contemporary company but I’ve found that nothing gets me warmed up and on my leg like a ballet class. I’m going to try this tomorrow so I can be prepared for when this quarantine is lifted. Thank you so much!!
I really appreciate all of your videos, especially these barre and center workouts. I'm starting ballet as an adult and doing your videos has given me the confidence to take a few classes. You are very thorough in all your explanations of different moves and you demonstrate terrific form. And I absolutely love the piano music. Go broadway!!
Barre! I'm looking forward to do it!!! You are so amazing! I am an adult ballet dancer and I'm doing all your barre works at home! It's like having private lessons. thanks!!!
Thankyou katie, i was scared you will off to Miami soon and you wont get time to make video's for us.. Thankyou for managing your time and posting it for us.. You are great teacher.. Wish i could learn in person...
Katie, thank you so much for all of your videos! I love watching even the ones that don't apply to me, an adult dancer who will never go on pointe. There is no adult ballet class in or near my little town anymore, and a friend and I regularly do your classes in my living room. We really appreciate the respect you show adult dancers. You've given us lots of barre options; could you add another center when you get a chance? We enjoy both the "classic" and "easy" centers that you've posted, but the others are too advanced for us. I'd also like to thank you for sharing so much of your life with us. I've been dealing with a hard time recently, and it has really helped to be able to watch your joy after your years of perseverance. My dance buddy and I are hoping to make it to Miami to see you perform!
Comment to your video about getting into a company again : I AM SO, SO HAPPY FOR YOU !!! I AM PROUD OF YOU !!! You fighted and you believed, you worked hard and you deserve it, cause you love what you do. When I saw you sitting their crying, I knew that it is your passion and I saw how incredibely happy it made you. You are such a nice, funny, ambitious and down-to-earth person, not a little bit arrogant or selfish. You help us everday and share all of your knowledge with us without wanting to keep your knowledge just for yourself. I don't know if I could do that. You are great, you have fun while filming your videos and make my day happier. Your videos motivate me and they teach me a lot. You try to make us benefit from every single one of your videos, even of videos about yourself like this one. You are an amazing dancer and such a kind and talented teacher. I am really, really happy for you. Take your time for getting into company life and enjoy that you can do what you truly love again. I will miss your videos, I will miss you, because I guess we will not get to see you and to ask you for advice as often as before and to be honest : It makes me scared. I trust a lot on you and I loved watching your videos twice a week. They helped me, as a person and as a dancer and made me more positive. But you spend so much time for us, now it's time for you to take time for yourself. I understand that and I am so happy for you. Those news literally make my day, because I feel so close to you and I am as axcited as I would be getting into the company as well (which I am farrrr away from :((( ) I will just watch every single one of your old videos, cause I haven't seen them all by now and you made quite a few, didn't you ? We love you soooo much Katie and we will do whatever it takes to support you, even if that means to kind of let you go sometimes ! Thank you Katie. For everything that you have done and what you will do for us in the future. I wish you all the best and I love you so, sooo much 😘 You're the best 💖
@@kathryn_morgan Oh wow, thanks for replying ! And by the way : I am unbeliveable happy, that you say, my comment made your day !! I am happy to be able to give you back at least one of my days you made ! ❤
I love you Kathryn ! You're amazing, tku for your share on You Tube! And congrats for your new company! I'm so happy for you Omg!!😍☺😘😘 Love from France!😍😘
Hey Katie! I am 15 and I just started ballet and I want to improve (I don't know if want to dedicate my life to ballet) What things should I focus in to improve faster and have a clean technique? My teacher says I should focus on strength (which I am already working) but I want to do more Thank you!
Hello ! I may be late but here are some tips : focus on your abs when you do relevés, balances etc., strenghten your feet with relevés and retirés, and keep working on your balance.
Love this video and I’m so happy your joining MCB! I have been watching you since near the beginning of your channel❤️ they have helped me so much and you’ve been one of my inspirations ever since I found you videos. I love your hair too! Could you do another hairstyles video?
Thank you Kelly! Yes - there is some fake hair in there (mine is FAR too thin to make it work.I usually always use it!) But I could do a tutorial if you would like!
It's because it's not live yet - it premieres tomorrow. RUclips allows you to now let your viewers know that videos are coming even though they aren't posted yet!

Decided to incorporate ballet into my routine as cross training for figure skating. This was an amazing introduction to the art that is ballet 💕

Arms hypnotize!
Les mis piano for the first combo had me shook 🤧
That was lovely! Thanks for the rehearsal warm-up!
This is perfect - I have a recital in a couple of weeks and the venue is always really cold! Thank you!
My pleasure! And cold theaters are the WORST!

@LM sparkle 😂Ya, I love writing long text and somehow I wanted to tell her everything, that's in the text.
Thank you so much. This completely made my day. I truly appreciate it. And the good news- Miami City Ballet wants me to keep the channel going. :)

I have a performance today so great timing! Thanks
Thank you!!! 💖✨
8:28 I was going along and then I got all flabbergasted because I knew the song 😂😂
Warming up to Les Miserables? Yes please!
Absolutely!
I am glad I am not the only one that noticed that
love this so much, super useful!
Love this video and I’m so happy your joining MCB! I have been watching you since near the beginning of your channel❤️ they have helped me so much and you’ve been one of my inspirations ever since I found you videos. I love your hair too! Could you do another hairstyles video?
Thank you so much! I will work on it!
The "I am soloist with Miami City Ballet" in the bio made me sqeal a little since I'm so happy for you.
And it made me squeal to write it! Thank you!
Loved the video! The music you use is always soo nice ☺️
Thank you! It's by David Plumpton.
I really love this rendition of ‘I Dreamed a Dream’ and want to incorporate it into my barre exercises! What version do you use?
You look so stunning! Also... your hair looks beautiful like this. Are you using a hairpiece? How did you do this style? Gorgeous!
Thank you Kelly! Yes - there is some fake hair in there (mine is FAR too thin to make it work.I usually always use it!) But I could do a tutorial if you would like!
We would LOOOOVE a tutorial on it!!! Thank you :):)
Yoooooo that leotard tho 😍😍
Thank you! It's Eleve.
thank you!
I’m here !!!
thnk you 👌
I’ve had a lot of struggles with my back, mainly pain on the right side. Do you know any exercises to do in order to help that?
Can you do it even when you dont do ballet ??
How do I get better at balancing? My balance sucks
Your feet are much better!
I can't play the video, it says there's an error. ☹️
It's because it's not live yet - it premieres tomorrow. RUclips allows you to now let your viewers know that videos are coming even though they aren't posted yet!
