Did anyone catch that subtle music in the beginning 😉As always, thanks so much for being here. Your support on this new journey of ours means the world to us.
I miss your UA-cam videos… I love that you are doing the program with people with movement disabilities! I have been almost completely disabled by arthritis and fibromyalgia in the last 2 yrs (I’m 49), and I can only imagine how much your classes help those individuals - not only with movement, but mentally. Going from being an active woman to having to walk with a cane have taken a toll on me mentally and I wish I lived in a large centre where I had access to something like that.
Got chills when Marty was with the kids. I'm getting caught up. Yesterday, you popped into my head and here I am. Love all of this for yall. Sending love from North Carolina. So excited to stream! ❤🎉❤
It's really hard for me to cry, and as soon as I saw all the elderly people and kids dancing I just lost it. Dance is so powerful, and I have avoided getting involved in it because of being on the spectrum and the possibility of not looking "right" when dancing. You have no idea how much good you are both doing.
I am in tears 🥹 I’m so proud of you both. I am so happy I found you Kate 5 years ago and got to watch you blossom in the most authentic way and find Martin. You guys are beautiful people creating something beautiful together💛
Love the short hair! Your community out reach is so beautiful. If we were still in the area, I would have loved to volunteer. The love and support you are showing to the neurodivergent community brings tears. I cannot imagine how much this would have helped when I was little. Movement seems to be so incredibly helpful. Love the codes lining your walls, and also, you guys are adorable.
Love that you're doing ballet classes for these groups! I'm sure they are highly appreciated. Truly great initiative. Good luck with all your projects and performances! PS, greetings from Estonia :)
I am so very proud of you and Marty! Congratulations on all that you have achieved so far! Just seeing the joy on your faces and those you were teaching warmed my heart!
Awww, I remember watching you when you were back in Ohio! I have always loved your vibe and you will always have a special place in my heart as the first UA-camr who ever responded to my first comment - it may have been on a different account but I have that memory (ahhh, back when I first found out you could leave comments on videos!)💜 So heartwarming to hear about all of your good news 🥰
I will definitely be donating your channel has inspired me from the being I did ballet as well growing its hard for me to find a place where I live you've help me through so much kate flowers you have no idea how much through raw vegan an going vegan an just staying positive thank you so much I hope when I donate you will see it even though I'm going through a rough time your channel just who you are helped me alot thank you
So happy to see this video and the 2 of you!!! I have been following closely the progress you have made and look how far you have come in a year!!!! The first time I saw you dance Kate (and Martin!!), I knew that dance was where you belonged...you are both incredibly beautiful dancers. The purpose of your company and the outreach programs warm my heart!!! I am soooo looking forward to the new season. For now I will have to be in the 'online' audience, but my goal is to be able to come and see a live performance! Thank you for all your hard work and sharing your beautiful vision with the world!!!💗💗💗
Love seeing you both back! So happy that your dream as a beautiful team has come to fruition. I LOVED the Azara Ballet crew neck you were wearing in your outreach clip. If you ever make those, sign me up for one! Congratulations again ♥️
So wonderful to see you both doing so well and using your talents to enrich us all. The outreach programs are brilliant and will have such a positive effect on the participants, I hope one day you will have them available in cities throughout the US. Continued success!!!
I am moved to tears seeing your projects for elder people and children on the spectrum. ❤ You have such a big heart and bring beauty, community, health and life to so many people. Love to see you back here. ❤
I'm so happy for the both of you! You are accomplishing beautiful thinga. It's amazing to see how far you've come in life. I've been watching you on UA-cam for more than 5 years and I know I don't know you but I'm proud of you for taking the big steps needed to chase your dreams ♡. I look forward to seeing the update videos each month ❤
So happy for you both, all huge accomplishments! I’ve commented this before, but as a former aspiring ballerina your vision for changing the negative dance culture is so important. Wishing you continued success! 💗🩰
I admire you guys so much! Thank you for bringing joy, positivity and love to the ballet world! I personally was very damaged by this manipulative and unsafe world and whenever I see your videos, your auras and what you've decided to create, I feel it helps me heal a little more. And I am sure it's the same for all the people who have the chance to see you and/or dance with you! Thank you so, so much for being who you are, for sharing it and for having the courage to change the ballet/dance world! Love
I've been watching you for so many years and it's beautiful to see where your life has gone and that you're making your dreams come true! I work at a performance theatre and I love love love seeing outreach work and making the arts accessible for everyone. Wonderful job to both of you ❤
Kate and Marty, although you both have been so missed on UA-cam, what have you accomplished in just a year is amazing. The good you are putting in to the world through starting your ballet company, teaching ballet classes to adults with limited mobility and neurodivergent little humans both warms my heart and brings happy tears to my eyes. We are given gifts and talents in this lifetime and you are using yours to make this world a much more beautiful and loving place for humanity. Can’t wait to follow you both on this next leg of life’s journey.
This makes me so very happy! I'm overjoyed how things have progressed for Azara, Kate and Marty! It would be wonderful to be able to attend a performance via streaming! As an international viewer, this opens up so many more opportunities to be able to support this incredible project ❤
From someone who has watched you for years, every video you post about ballet brings tears to my eyes. It is so cool to see how much passion, love, and joy you have for ballet. Watching you follow your dreams is so inspiring and beautiful. I am so excited to see what you have in store for the future, thank you for sharing your passions.❤
Hi Kate and Marty. You are such an inspiration. As someone who gave up performing and songwriting over 20 years ago I have been struggling with even finding a purpose again. This makes me wonder if it is possible to finally reconnect with that part of myself and be fully authentic in my expression. So much love to you. Do you think you might consider doing some online classes for mental health/holistic support for those of us still living with depression, anxiety, PTSD, grief etc as a dance therapy or expressive therapy project, and for those of us who can't see you in person in other parts of the world (I am in Australia unfortunately)? I am an academic and have trained as a creative arts therapist and still on my healing journey and would love to see this.. Your yoga and dance exercise classes helped me back in the day because of your genuine compassionate energy xoxo
Love love love everything you guys are doing and so freaking stoked for you! I think this first year is going to be amazing and life changing on so many levels, not just for you and your dancers but the souls you reach in the community as well. As someone that has worked with the neurodivergent population (starting in the preschool setting) I know how beneficial this will be for those sweet souls! I think it's my favorite part of your company so far! I'm so so so so so happy for you!
I really love this and after watching your journey for a few years through the internet I am so excited for you. I would consider myself a novice dancer. I always feel uncomfortable in "dance spaces" because I am BEYOND big for a dancer at this point in my life but as a child I danced in Broadway summer camps. These days the most dancing I do is basically weekly Zumba classes because I love dance so much but no longer feel comfortable at local dance studios. I appreciate what you're doing for dance, the overall dance community, and how you highlight the beauty of movement. Love you lots, thank you for your work!!
Everything you touch seems to turn to gold! Congrats to you both for all of your accomplishments & contributions. Looking forward to following you on your journey.
yaaaaaaay new video!! You guys made my day ❤✨ I say this all the time, but I'm relally proud and happy to follow all of your journey for the last 5 or 6 years. See you pursue this huuuge goal and business melts my heart :) I am also an entrepreneur and this is not easy!
Congratulations Kate and Martin! I love that you're working with kids and the elderly too, and working to create a positive, safe space for dancers to express their art. You are both kind beautiful souls. Love and peace. XO
Kate! You are positively glowing. Both of you are!!! I've never seen you look so happy and healthy from the inside out. Your hair is amazing. I think the time off youtube is exactly what you needed. I think youtubers who just rely on youtube have so much pressure and sometimes I felt like you seemed a little lost. I feel like we are finally seeing the real Kate who is just being herself here. The things you have done with the dance company is amazing. I so enjoyed watching this!! I remember when you first got back into dance, seriously, with Marty and I always thought you were a good dancer but man, you are just gorgeous and I can tell you have worked really hard getting back into it. I'm so happy for you. I love that you are bringing joy to so many people and created a safe space for your dancers in your company. You are a treasure.
Did anyone catch that subtle music in the beginning 😉As always, thanks so much for being here. Your support on this new journey of ours means the world to us.
Well yeah, also when you were talking about the new dancers 🎶 ❤️
That music is so nostalgic!!
Fruit flowers music!
I miss your UA-cam videos…

What you are doing is so beautiful. The professional dance and outreach programs are so touching. THANK YOU for what you are doing for the world!
We really appreciate this thank you!!!
Bravo and well done! All of your hard work is benefiting so many. I can't wait to see what's ahead in the future!

I. Am. So. Happy. To. See. You. Sweet. Lady. OMGGGGGGG. Look at you growing and blooming! Love you both!
