In French, gargouiller refers to the sound your stomach makes when you're hungry 😂. My teacher refered to the gargouillade as "stiring mayonnaise" ! It looks like a combination of 2 small ronds de jambe en l'air done while doing a side jump. It takes great skill to do it well and gracefully, which is the case here !

@@kaileyhallettThey never said the kids are FORCED into it. Plenty of parents who never did ballet but are interested in it have signed their kids up to it and see if it interests the child or not as well. For example, my mom never did dance. She was too poor growing up in a third world country to be able to do it, but always liked it. She signed my sister and I up. I did ballet and my sister was young enough that she did a ballet/tap combo class. I continued with ballet because I LOVED it. My sister decided ballet was not for her so she went the tap route and my mom was never going to force her to do ballet. That said, my sister did decide to try ballet out one year when she was older to see if she’d like it or not. Decided it wasn’t for her so she went back to tap and remained there ever since. There was one year I decided I wanted to do hip hop instead and never did my mom try to force me to stay. I decided to return back to ballet but my mom was always supportive of us loving dance and wanting to do the form of dance that WE wanted to do (we weren’t able to do multiple dance styles like some kids got to do but we were grateful to be able to even dance one style!). MANY parents are this way.

In high school, our pointe class was at 8am on Saturdays. I remember our teacher trying to teach us these ONCE. During our pointe class. On a Saturday morning. I was in a *mood* and I just blurted out, "we can't even say it, how do you expect us to doooooo iiiitttt!?" Luckily, she got a laugh out of it and never tried to make us do them again. 😂

Damn. She made that look ✨effortless✨ I could feel my ex-ballerina love handles jiggling just watching this. That’s the main thing I notice whenever I dance now…almost 20 years post spending 8 hours per day in the studio: there’s more of me now, and I’m *much* harder to lift. 🫠😆 Ballet is hard. It’s harder when you don’t do it. The best advice I can give anyone regarding anything is: if you love it, don’t stop. Even if that just means doing one adult ballet class per week, your body will appreciate it more than stopping altogether. ❤

I’m 10 years retired but I don’t miss it. I never liked ballet to start with anyway, it only caused problems for me like emotional and psychological trauma as well as lower back pain from keeping my pelvis tucked all the time and so sitting like that everywhere to the point where I can’t sit on the floor in the middle of a room because it hurts too much, I need a wall. But I do miss contemporary and ballroom and am sad I stopped

@@itsdune079 I can empathize with that. Ballet definitely encouraged my ED as a teenager…actually, staring at my body in the mirror everyday for hours, my ballet teacher screaming at me to suck my stomach in, and nineties diet culture/the desire to be uber skinny all worked together in an awful trifecta which manifested in an ED. Ballet can be extremely stressful. I danced at the pre-professional level and the competitiveness, constant auditions and rehearsals, and having no social life outside of dance made me resent it eventually. It sucks because I did love it…but much of me just wanted to have a normal teenage experience. I’ve talked to friends of mine who did do professional ballet, and they all agree that they didn’t care at all about anything but ballet…friends and dating all took a backseat until they became adults. I think you really have to want it that badly to be successful and do it as a career. Even so, both the gals I know who danced with companies only did it for 5 and 7 years, respectively. It demands so much of you.

@@amandamarklandyoga Hmmm, yep. There are so many stories of ballet dancers who developed EDs. My poor body image, low self-esteem, and later ED history started when I quit dancing competitively ten years ago and packed on fat from eating the same excessive amount of snacks as when I danced, but not exercising anymore. Since I quit dance 10 years ago, I have blamed myself for the higher body fat I have lived with, that it’s my fault I ended up this way and wasn’t informed about the relationship between food intake and exercise amount. And then the EDs started but I never ended up in a hospital because my depression’s apathy moved me from atypical ana relapses into periods of overeating because I didn’t care about calories or portion size anymore. Yeah I’ve heard that somewhere that you have to really want it to maintain a full-time professional ballet career. I’ve watched many ballet documentaries in my time, like First Position and Wendy Whelan: Restless Creature, as well as many on KZitem, and they don’t show much social life or marriage, let alone child-rearing. I guess it’s good for workaholics (until they burn out), but it is a tough industry and it definitely destroys the body
