In-Depth Technique Workshop with Christopher Sellars | Ballet Barre | All Levels | Kathryn Morgan
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 сер 2024
- Today Christopher Sellars takes you through an in-depth look at ballet technique and barre. This is more of a working class and "workshop" to help you improve your dancing. While the combinations are more for intermediate/advanced dancers, ALL LEVELS would benefit from hearing his advice! I hope this helps you start to develop your own technique further. Demonstrating is the lovely 12 year old Taelor Fjeldsted of Ballet West Academy.

Hi I'm Kathryn!
I am a former soloist with the New York City Ballet and Miami City Ballet. When I was a young student, I was always looking for insights into the ballet world and how to improve my dancing as well as beauty and lifestyle tips. Now that I am a professional, it is my turn to share.
On my channel I make ballet, beauty, and lifestyle videos for everyone of all ages. My goal is help dancers improve and achieve their dreams as well as open up the ballet world to non dancers. Let's bring the joy back to ballet! You will see many different kinds of videos here including ballet classes, workouts, Q and A sessions, life advice, performances, beauty tutorials, technique tips, and more. I hope you find all of my videos helpful!

Give Taelor a hug from everyone on the internet. She was truly awesome!
I will! She is beyond talented!
Lifting the heart is an INCREDIBLE correction, so helpful!! Thank to all for your generosity and inspiration.
I was in the nutcracker with Taelor! She is so nice!
I admire the vulnerability of the student to demonstrate and show real-life "mishaps" or areas needing a bit of correction. It really helps us all learn, to see the process of improvement.
Thank you for pointing this out. Taelor is an incredible student. We went with a younger student because they tend to be less critical of themselves and just hungry to learn. (I had to get her to do things wrong on purpose at times because she is so darn talented... lol) Taelor is brave to be our demonstrator, but also so talented to apply live corrections. I’ve watched her do this in class. So the way she works here is no different than her discipline in class. Taelor is a superstar. We also had her mother (also a dance teacher) in the studio the whole time. Taelor is the way she is because of how her mother supports her. It’s inspiring to be in the middle of!
This is the video I was desperate to put out there because watching applied corrections as a teacher has made me learn so much more about the physics of classical ballet. Thank you so much for watching!
-Christopher Sellars
I wish Chris had been my ballet teacher when I was a young ballet student. He is a very talented dancer and teacher. You two are lucky to have found each other.
Taelor is a beautiful dancer.
I wish I had the ballet memory I used to have when I was younger. I had no problem remembering barre sequences and now I'm like: "How does she remember everything?!"
right? so impressive!
I completely agree!!!!
Chris is a wonderful teacher! He’s so good at working with students. He’s so encouraging and detailed with his corrections! Thank you both for this video. Even as an adult dancer, I got some great corrections to keep in mind
Agree☺🤗
Oh my goodness, such a wonderful teacher!!
What wonderful details that are so helpful and make so much difference!!
A privilege to have Chris as a teacher!!!
As someone who started ballet as an adult, this was VERY helpful 💗 thank you Taelor and Chris!
Wow. This is pure Gold!
I’m still a beginner (I danced in my childhood but sadly not much ballet but jazz and belly dance) and I had to play many exercises in slow motion because I wasn’t able to follow the pace but I learned so much from this workshop. I can’t even count the aha moments - it’s incredible! I will watch this again and again to really internalize all the techniques. Christopher Sellars is a wonderful teacher and Taelor is just adorable and so talented. Thank you so so much for this!
I guess I speak for everyone if I say: more of it.
Quality content!!!!! We are so lucky to have you! You are the ballet prophet; you and Chris
Taylor is Very Talented. Christopher is So Wonderful!!! It was very helpful. I wish your studio was in Madison, Wisconsin.😊
So excited to do this later Taelor is amazing!
Yes she is!
I've been taking Ballet for years and this Teacher taught me in this video the correct form and how to use my body without pain for many of the bar exercises. He's a Gift to any Student who has the privilege of being taught by him!
Katie, this is incredible! Chris is amazing, what a gifted soul! Taelor is a star!!! WHAT A WORKSHOP!! truly priceless, thank you so much XOXO :)
Dear Kathryn, thank you so much to you, Chris and Taelor for another wonderful video! You are so encouraging, inspiring, and learning ballet with you is a great, I'd say almost magic way to not let frustration get the better of me during these difficult times. A big hug to all of you, and stay safe!
Chris is an excellent teacher! And Taelor is an amazing young dancer!
Taelor you did so amazingly awesome!!!
This class was amazing! So many great corrections - especially about the importance of the supporting side. I love watching his beautiful lifted placement! That alone is a class! :)
his corrections are amazing!!! i have always have a lot of trouble with stability in sous sus but i just did it so effortlessly after his tendu 1st lecture
This looks amazing! Thanks so much to the whole team for this! I can't wait to do this later!
Chris is an excellent teacher, the care he takes to correct the student is exemplary. Thanks for sharing this class. Greetings from Mexico.
Amazing amazing class, thank you so much! I learned so much from Chris and was BLOWN AWAY by Taelor's skill. Fantastic work!
Amazing ballet class and amazing Teacher (super super interesting technique tips and exercises at the barre 😍)!! 💝Hope another one will come asap!! Thank you ❤️
This is such good content I'm gonna revisit it in the future! I wish i had a teacher like this when i was young 😭🌹
Thank you very much for the excellent class and advice, Christopher! And bravo to Taelor too! Greetings from Belgium! Happy Easter!
Yes! You always come through with a great video when I’m ready to do some barre outside of the studio
Great job Taelor! Chris you are an awesome teacher! Ballet is so beautiful, but so stink’n hard!
I absolutely love your videos! I do at least one of your classes pretty much every day!
Thanks Katryn and Christopher for this beautiful ballet barre!!!
This is such a gift. 🎁 I could never thank you both so much for your genuine generosity. Much love from the Philippines. 🇵🇭♥️🎉💐
Great workshop! Can’t wait to try it soon. Y’all are truly amazing.
Brilliant. I will be going through video again, have already picked up some really useful tips. Thanks Chris, Taelor and Kathryn xx 🥰
I will be doing this whole workshop later! This is amazing and you guys are all so awesome for making it, thank you! I find your videos so helpful btw ☺️🩰
Wow, this is totally brilliant - thank you!!
Thank you guys for making this video! We have been dancing online for more than a year now and although we know the basic, it is difficult for teachers to look at the technique.
So excited to watch it in depth soon!
That was adorable! Thank you and congratulations for your work! ♥️
Thank you for this wonderful video. I’m 64 years young lol and enjoy this so much . You are both amazing dancers and teachers .
Thank you for this! I'm actually a fan of the longer videos tbh :)

Maravillosa clase, impecable técnica, toda mi admiración para ti y para el Maestro Christopher. Saludos desde México.
Please, please, PLEASE do more of these videos for us!
Thank you so very much!
Parabéns! Excelente!👏👏👏👏👏
This girl is amazing! Talented, cute and motivated. I would love to have class with Chris as well. Best regards from Germany :-)
Thank you very much.....🥰🥰🥰.
awesome workout
consider myself beginner, just approaching intermediate but k is right, these corrections are an amazing resource for how you think about muscle engagement. especially *where* your coupé etc originates.
Thank you so much, loved it!! Can we get a similar one for center? 🙏🏼 ♥️
Wonderful video! Katie, you know how you did an updated video on standing out at auditions and completions? You need to do one for summer courses.
INFINITE GRATITUDE 💚💙💛🤍💖💋💐🌹🌺🌼⚘🦋🍓🍭⭐🌈🥇🌊🌞🌏🍾🤵🏻👰🏻
.....I'm gonna have to make my way to Utah at some point in the next few years just so I can take class with this guy, aren't I.
😍❤️
I know this is random, but Kathryn, in this lighting with your lovely makeup/hair, you look like Snow White! Not the Dinsey version, just a really beautiful version!
Hi! I'm breaking this down minute by minute, and it's AMAEBALLS. But I'm stuck on balancing in al la second at around 23:00. I understand your corrections to her. I don't understand what I am aiming for though. You say "there it is," but I just don't understand why the correction is a better thing. I'm an adult beginner so there are things that I'm totally missing.
What is the metodology? I can notice that in the souplesse she goes up and brushes his hand from the leg to the waist instead of raising her arms from first position and i like it.
Question: I get the posture corrections and can work out something i'm pretty satisfied with considering my level, but then I DON'T KNOW HOW TO BREATHE while keeping my balance. Where is the air supposed to go, in the lower belly? In the ribs? Certainly not...! Help :O
Katie❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😄
I've never heard "shape the ankle with the inner thigh". Is it possible to get some elaboration on that? I'm not certain I'm really understanding that cue.
Same!! I would like to know
It’s the terminology I use to express how the shape of the ankle and foot doesn’t come solely from the ankle down. It should start from the pelvis, as in through the lower abs, rotators, and inner thigh extending the entire line of the leg down to the foot. 😊
-Chris
2:39 hi katie
This girl is so cute haha
HI Chris love the detailed instructions ..a couple of things,
A little less touching by Chris..it might be a red flag these days...a man touching a young girl...I am a student myself so I completely understand.
When Chris stands behind Taylor she completely disappears ....both wearing black. More facing front please.
Love when Chris walks quickly back and forth...so funny
Thank you so much...very interesting
Thank you so much for this
PS I'm using my husband's phone lol
Thank you for this thoughts! I will pass them onto Chris. I will say - Taelor's mother was in the room off camera (as was I), and he got her full approval to provide hand-on corrections. Chris is always VERY aware of that, but she was right there and gave her go-ahead for everything. :)
30 minutes in, I give up. I'm too stupid and slow for this
Hey - you got this! I know when I get to attempt this later, I am probably going to be flopping around looking not so majestic as they are. But I think with practice and taking it day by day - you'll get there :) I'm still a beginner and am trying to figure a lot of this stuff out. lol
@@angelsapphire6088 Thanks. I decided to keep going through the end and I think I am gonna keep trying after all. With covid not showing signs of disappearing, I've got all the time in the world to improve
@@singer2be256 I agree, I kind of took up this stuff because one - I've always been interested in balle, and two its really helping to not think of covid or all the crap that keeps going on with everything. Not saying I am ignoring the news - but I am not going to live like that where I am constantly stressed out like I was doing last year.
