Kathryn I was so happy today that I finally managed to take both classes! The level is slightly more difficult than my local class but at the same level of my Paris class so I was able to follow and I was able to show boyfriend that I can do the splits (sorry, I know it's silly, but I had to call him in to hold the chairs for the bar stretches). It's such a treat to be able to do this in confinement I cannot begin to tell you how happy this video has made me. Thank you so much!
this is such a treat! You look so happy in the intro, and I love hearing the encouraging feedback Chris gives to your wonderful dancer throughout the class so I can focus too! I never thought about how sometimes this is missing from online classes. It really helps!
I have always loved your videos and was looking for a ballet barre warm up today and found Christopher Selllars, It was a great class. I have known Christopher since he was born, yes Im really old, he reminds me so much of his father and I still take classes with Mr. Sellars from time to time. Love the whole family. Thank you.
I have been thrown into a position of my own doing, in teaching ballet and pointe. ALL of your videos have been so helpful in refreshing my mind and body with what needs to be done for my students. Thank you so much!
FABULOUS! I took Chris & Ellas’s barre, first, then finished with their floor for the first time.The variety of teachers brings different directions/corrections & new challenges. I thoroughly enjoyed these classes. Chris, Ella, & Kathy, thank you, so much! I just love you guys!❤️❤️🩰❤️❤️
Mr. Sellers explained the combinations very clearly and Ella executed them so well. I love that he tells you what foot you should be on and how to close, and all those little "in between" steps that are so essential (especially in video format when you don't get as clear visual as a live class). He never just does the combination at whatever tempo and goes, "And a one-two-three-four...got it? Whatever. Cue music." Thank you for uploading!
Christopher is an amazing teacher! I would love to see more classes. They will really be helpful for me since I don’t have the best technique😅 Love you both and thank you🥰
Watching this helped me learn technique, such as telegraphing and maintaining balance on both the left and right sides. I would watch again to focus on memorizing the combination.
Because of the quarantine there are so much ballet workouts on UA-cam and I try to do as much of them as possible and so far I enjoyed yours the most! I do the barre everyday since published and today I started the centre work and it's wonderful! Thank you for amazing classes!
This is a great class! My main issue with online classes is that I need the combination called out during the combination as well. Not just at the beginning. My memory isn't good enough to just hear it once 🤣 This was great, thank you 😊
I thought these two videos were great! I’d love to have Chris as a teacher. He is so clear putting forth his ideas and demonstrating. Two recommendations: wireless microphones and more cameras to allow mid-level shots and closeups. Thanks!
Just wondering, why closeups? I personally think the whole body shots are great as they are without unnecessary shots that cut the legs or body off, keeping it simple but clear and efficient as to knowing what to do :)
Thank you, Kathryn and Chris. You are the best. Now, to start as much of this centre as I can do in a small space in a house that rattles and shakes with each jump!
Thank you so much!!!!! I took both classes. I have been practicing everyday. and i can feel my improvement! It's even better than my real classes in local academy school. Thank you a million times Kathryn and Christopher!
Thanks so much for your lessons. They 're really helpful these days!!! I've done the barre and the center with Christopher sessions for two weeks so far and I feel much much better! Your advice and corrections are great!!! Go on like this.
I enjoyed this class so much! Add another class taught by Christopher please
4 роки тому
I'm slowly getting myself back into ballet after a four-year hiatus and Christopher explains very well, I was already able to see improvement as I haven't done center in so long! Thank you guys, love you Kathryn😍☺
I am so excited to do this and the barre workout. What a wonderful class to look forward to during this difficult time. Thank you both so much for doing this. Deeply appreciated!
it was an awesome class to do in my bedroom during these uncertain times to lift my sprit up! You guys are the greatest, thank you so much for this gift. More please :))
this was so helpful! I think there are plenty of barres around but center and pointe class is more scarce. Another thing I would love is Balanchine technique
YES! KATYY! We definitely need a beginner class. I came back to ballet 3 years ago after 6 years of not doing anything dance/fitness related and, oh boy, did i have cramps during my first class back. I've improved since then but I still haven't considered my self good in terms technique, strength and flexibility. It's just hard to gain it all back after i lost it 😅. Love you and your videos as always btw 💜
Both of you guys explanations and demonstrations are so great to improve my techniques since sometimes I have local classes, the teachers assume all students know how to do it and don't explain much. Thank you so much and hope to see more classes coming in the future!!!
Hi! Something a bit harder than your other "easy barre" but not as hard as the intermediate barre would be wonderful. Especially in terms of the speeds of the battements! Thanks so much for this.
I love that he's trying to be conscious of the fact that most of us are dancing at home with limited space, but cmon man do you really think I have enough space in my studio apartment for a saut de chat? These videos are fantastic, the barre was exactly what I needed but I'm a little salty I don't have room for centre at home lol
I really enjoy and benefit from all of the classes you post! Can you make a video doing a butt workout? That would be so helpful, especially for a lot of my routines, and the type of dancing we do at my studio.
@@kathryn_morgan you're one of the sweetest people, thank you for your videos! As someone who's been told in one sentence that "I'm too fat to dance the lead but I am the best in the class so if I'll loose some weight she'll give me a solo" since I was seven years old I really appreciate your videos. I don't have time to watch all of them when they come out, but I make sure to catch up later. All the best to you! 🌻

Slightly disappointed this time he didn't say: "Also known as Kathryn Morgans boyfriend". 😝
But fine, I'll take it 🤷🏻♀️
Thank you for this class 😍
Hahahaha
I love it when you say "my boyfriend Christopher Sellars" you guys are so cute
Thank you! xoxo

Lovely combinations! They are challenging, yet clean and uncomplicated.

Kathryn, I love your classes. Thank you for sharing your expertise with us. I enjoyed Chris' class too. You both are great! Merry Christmas.
Love it!! More, please!! Great center for limited space at home!!! What would I do without your exercises, Kathryn!!?!!!

Superb! Really enjoyed this.
According to the subtitles his name is Lucifer Sellers and he’s a former valet 🤣
Hahaha love it! Amazing
Such an awesome class thank you so much!
Thank you so much!! He is a wonderful teacher!
He truly is!
Love your videos so much! Thanks for sharing!!
I loved the faster pace!
He is one of the best instructors I ever met. Please let him teach more classes!!!
Both of you guys explanations and demonstrations are so great to improve my techniques since sometimes I have local classes, the teachers assume all students know how to do it and don't explain much. Thank you so much and hope to see more classes coming in the future!!!
This was challenging. I definitely didn't do perfectly, but I'm trying !!! Thanks so much for this.
Thanks so much... wonderful!... would love MORE classes!
Thank you for this, so grateful for these classes during this time! ☺️
Lovely ❤️ Both teacher and dancer!!!!
Thank you Chris! And can I just say that Ella's got the springy-est petite allegro jump! :)
Hi! Something a bit harder than your other "easy barre" but not as hard as the intermediate barre would be wonderful. Especially in terms of the speeds of the battements! Thanks so much for this.
Fun class! A little difficult, but very fun! Thanks!
Yeeey i was waiting for this !!! Please do a live class 😍😍😍🙏🏼🙏🏼
Definitely going to work on it!
I love that he's trying to be conscious of the fact that most of us are dancing at home with limited space, but cmon man do you really think I have enough space in my studio apartment for a saut de chat? These videos are fantastic, the barre was exactly what I needed but I'm a little salty I don't have room for centre at home lol
Great center! I kind of wish he was teaching us as if we were in the class behind him, instead of mirroring him. But it was still great!
Thank you so much! Can you do a video that is feet, ankle, and calf strengthening? And turnout?
Thank you again from Barcelona.
This is so helpful!!
Great class... and looks like you found yourself a great man. He seems very sweet and caring!
Great Class thank you so much :)
LOVE THIS!!!! Thank you thank you!
please post more classes!!!!!
I really enjoy and benefit from all of the classes you post! Can you make a video doing a butt workout? That would be so helpful, especially for a lot of my routines, and the type of dancing we do at my studio.
This is an excellent class! The only thing I would change is don't wear black! It's hard to tell what leg is the gesture leg.
You are both special and talented! 😍
They are!!
@@kathryn_morgan I meant you and him! 😂
Awww well thank you!
I can't do most of this but it was fun to watch :D
thank you❤❤❤
Thank you again.
Do I mirror the instructor (his left=my right), or do I have to adjust and do the opposite as the instructor?
Thank you!!
Thank you so mach :)💃💕
Thank you!
It's our pleasure!
@@kathryn_morgan you're one of the sweetest people, thank you for your videos!
