you know it's going to be a good day if there's a new video by Kathie 😊 thank you for always providing helpful and well thought through advice. you're such an irreplaceable and inspiring dancer!!
first of all Happy 2023 to you Katie & Chris and your new school. I am an audience member, and I found this video very instructive, logical, and well thought out, which is “how you roll”.
Beautiful performance! Miami was trippin’ you look beautiful ❤ also I have never seen this show, thank you sharing. The jazz inspiration through the show, I can see why Balanchine made it it’s own full piece Bravissimo🎉🎉🎉
Your advice is really helpful for applications and interviews, too! It goes to show that dancers are really smart. The unique things dancers learn tie into other parts of life.
The day before I did video auditions I would have my students do a dress rehearsal so they were very confident before filming … I would also strongly recommend showing side view at the barre as everything can be seen . The day of filming we would do a walk through then film ❤ This proved helpful as everyone of my students were accepted their programs some with scholarships I suppose I’m saying to really approach these with the respect you would give to any performance Good luck to all you young dancers🎉… let nothing stop you …and remember to compare is to despair❤❤❤
As someone who doesnt know a lot about ballet I would pick the one who looks most like a professional dancer. Clean,neat,mentally focused,no frills,just the tidy body getting down to work. A bit of personality,but not a giggler or someone who looks in a flap.
So helpful! I was wonder since I am a late starter if I should just take the risk and audition for a summer intensive although I am not quite up to level...?
This is awesome!! I don't really audition anymore, but still great advice. And now I am seriously considering that adult ballet intensive...I love SoCal, and that would be amazing...!
These are such helpful tips that also serve well for job interviews . I’m very glad that there are no auditions for your adult intensive; I’d be a nervous wreck. I enjoyed last week so much and hope to be back next year. ❤🩰❤️🩰
Kathryn, I just want you to know how you have changed my life. I watched some of your videos about your health issues and realized how familiar your symptoms were. I got the active B -12 with L-5 MTHF you suggested. It has literally changed my life! I have energy again, I have been losing weight, my brain fog is gone, and I am off Adderall! Thank you so incredibly much!! I know this is not what this video is about, but I wanted you to know how you taking about your health journey is helping others.
can you do one if these for only in person auditions? i have an audition in 4 days and i could use all the help u could get! its only my second audition ever because im only 13 and my last audition was 2 years ago. this was so helpful though!!!
Hi Katie! I don’t know if you saw my live chat message or not but I wanted to ask you if you will have dorms for your upcoming pre pro summer intensive.
If registration begins at noon and lasts until twelve thirty, should I aim to get there at eleven fifty? On one hand I don't want there to be any issues if I'm running late, but I don't want to be the first person there
I'll bite. How much of a massive talent does one have to consider one's self, to roll in looking like the tail end of a three day bender, doing with walk of shame? It must happen, because it was brought up as an issue. My brain melted hearing that tip. Only Misha could maybe pull that off lol
I ask this all the time…but I have to know😅 I live in Cincinnati OH….are you going to have any Adult summer intensives in other locations such as mine this year?!
mmkay so I’m trying to buy this video audition course but even though I’ve entered all my information there appears to be no button to push that would allow me to purchase the course … tips?
Where were you 40 years ago? Not born, yet. Well, I would have loved to have had some information like this back then. No one came to Chicago to do summer intensive auditions or company auditions. I took classes with a girl who looked exactly like a dancer. She joined Winnipeg Ballet, I think; I don't really remember; it was 40 years ago. However, she couldn't dance her way out of a paper bag. She was a slow learner of variations and couldn't have switched sides in a corps spot like Snow or Swan Lake to save her life. She lasted a year. Me, I was always 10 pounds overweight, no matter what I tried to do. I have flat feet, so my pointe shoes were never quite right. But, I was an extremely fast learner and could switch sides on a dime. But, I was never allowed to demonstrate any of this because I was just another blonde, blue-eyed 5'6" dancer with just a bit too much in the thighs. 😞

I am not even a ballet dancer but your advices feels really helpful for me too 😄
To sum it all up: Be professional. Be on time.
And, most importantly, Be Prepared.
Yes exactly!
Good advice for life in general.
Auditioning for six summer intensives! This video was so helpful, and calmed my nerves a lot. Thanks so much, Katie!
Yesssss Katie is back! I hope you had a nice holiday season and time to relax after Nutcracker(s) 😊
Woohoo for Adult Summer Intensive 2023! Can't wait to dance with you again this summer! ◡̈
you know it's going to be a good day if there's a new video by Kathie 😊 thank you for always providing helpful and well thought through advice. you're such an irreplaceable and inspiring dancer!!
You know it's a good day when Katie posts something❤
first of all Happy 2023 to you Katie & Chris and your new school. I am an audience member, and I found this video very instructive, logical, and well thought out, which is “how you roll”.
These would be any great guidelines for any job interview.
I was going to post the same thing! So many young people havent gotten this basic message! Applies for any type of interview.
Very pretty sweater and Necklace Katie!! Thanks for a new video for this new year😄😄
Beautiful performance! Miami was trippin’ you look beautiful ❤ also I have never seen this show, thank you sharing. The jazz inspiration through the show, I can see why Balanchine made it it’s own full piece Bravissimo🎉🎉🎉

I suppose I’m saying to really approach these with the respect you would give to any performance
Good luck to all you young dancers🎉… let nothing stop you …and remember to compare is to despair❤❤❤
How i would sum it up - be professional, be polite, be punctual and be prepared.
Still doing your workouts from years ago! So helpful🙏😍
Well said, Kathryn. These points are the same points shared when people are interviewing for jobs.
Always charming; always professional; always great videos💐💐💐💐💐
Great to see you’re back.
This is so helpful with auditions around the corner. Thank you so much Kathryn!!!

Happy New Year Katie! If I were you, I’d do a full video on tip 5.
I haven't danced ballet since I was 14(i'm 29) but I love your videos!
So helpful! I was wonder since I am a late starter if I should just take the risk and audition for a summer intensive although I am not quite up to level...?
Do you have any leotard color recommendations for what to wear to an audition?
This is awesome!! I don't really audition anymore, but still great advice. And now I am seriously considering that adult ballet intensive...I love SoCal, and that would be amazing...!
I'm a Mum at home but I'm still watching 😁

Happy New Year Kathryn❤😄
Thank you so much for this video! I have an audition for a summer intensive in February and it's my first one so I'm kind of nervous. 😁😬
This video helped me so much!
can you do one if these for only in person auditions? i have an audition in 4 days and i could use all the help u could get! its only my second audition ever because im only 13 and my last audition was 2 years ago. this was so helpful though!!!
can you please do a video reviewing the zarely tights?
If you dont have the time to do it right the first time, you don’t have time to do it again.
Not from Ballet, but good advice!!
Thanks Katie! Are sign ups open for the adult summer intensive or is that coming soon?
Hi Katie! I don’t know if you saw my live chat message or not but I wanted to ask you if you will have dorms for your upcoming pre pro summer intensive.
Not this year!
@@kathryn_morgan oh okay. Thanks! Have a blessed new year!
@kathryn Morgan also, do you have any nearby hotel recommendations? I live on the other side of the country so I know nothing about local SoCal.😂
Hi Katie! I love your videos! I am trained in Balanchine technique, do you have any recommendations for intensives?
If registration begins at noon and lasts until twelve thirty, should I aim to get there at eleven fifty? On one hand I don't want there to be any issues if I'm running late, but I don't want to be the first person there

What about tight shorts for a company audition?
the video course does seem pretty thorough but $299 😮
