Ballet Dancers Dream?"

What Ruins Most Dancers? Most trainee dancers ultimately fail... WHY? Find out from Odette for free...

My name is Odette. Over the years, I found myself in every dance studio, preparing each pair of pointe shoes and performing on many different stages. Then, I became a professional ballet dancer. And, I still am.

I went from being at a local dance school to a world-class top vocational dance school.

But it did not come easily. I practiced, I trained, I auditioned. I worked my hardest to reach the goal of so many aspiring dancers.

Being a ballet dancer is much harder than you think. It demands a lot of determination, hard work and commitment.

To progress through any level in ballet you need the right skill and work ethic to improve. You need the inside knowledge and guidance. That is where I am here to help.

This site will give you the unique tips and advice to give you a special edge and reach your dancing potential.

Ballet Passion

Since my first few ballet classes in the studio, I have always remembered the enjoyment it brings. Having a passion for ballet is so important for dancers.

The legendary dancer Martha Graham once quoted, “Great dancers are not great because of their technique, they are great because of their passion.”

It is a magnificent feeling to perform on stage and fulfill your passion.

Ballet has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Just like you, I began with the ultimate dream to become a ballet dancer.

I had many thoughts that one day I would love to dance on stage and be a professional. And, I am still dancing now, performing around the world and fulfilling my passion.

You will soon learn how fascinating the dance world is. You will see that dancers are one of a kind.

So, let me help you discover and share my passion with you too. Whether you dance just for fun, or dreaming for more, you can reach your potential and become a better dancer.

Lets start with my seven secrets. The perfect way for you to begin and start to flourish in your dancing.

More About Me, Odette...

I was just an ordinary girl born without any special privileges. My parent's were not dancers and nor were my family much involved in ballet.

I began as a gymnast. I competed in many competitions and won 14 medals. But I had to choose between ballet or gymnastics, as I could only commit to one.

So, I stuck with the dance and from the age of 11, I won a scholarship to one of the world's most famous ballet schools.

I worked hard and trained there for many years, becoming Head Girl and winning both academic and dance prizes. As a trainee, I also went onto win a solo competition, two years running, and danced one of the world's oldest and most prestigious Companies.

I continue to dance in a professional company and my way of 'giving back' is, with this website, to help youngsters develop to be the best dancers they can be.

Feel free to write in and tell me if I have helped you. This is a great motivation for me.

I will do my best to give you guidance in the most understandable and attainable way.

You can talk to me and ask me questions (go to my Ballet Guide Blog here for exactly how).
