Are some dancers just naturals ?????

Question

in ballet are some people just naturals and how do u tell if u are

Answer 1

Yes, a lot of people are just naturally graceful or talented. Dance will seem to come easier to you than others, that is how I always thought that is was. Or, if you naturally make it look easy and graceful.  

Answer 2

Of course, but those w/ the most natural ability tend to work the hardest.  I could name a litany of ballet dancers, but I will just mention one dancer who played what I call "The Hardwood Ballet".  Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.  For years his magnificent footwoork kept him at the top of his game, and confounded his would-be defenders.  The 'Skyhook' is, as they say "a thing of beauty is a joy forever".

Answer 3

There are no people that immediately "get" ballet but there are some who  understand the moves better than others. You an tell if you're a natural if you just grasp the concept of the choreography you're learning with little to no questions.  There are some people whose bodies are built for ballet and that flow better than others also.

Answer 4

danceing in general does'nt come natural, but what does come natural is timing, coordination, balance and agility, which helps to learn or pick up quicker than others...this doesn't mean that these skills cannot be developed because they most certainly can with much practice...

hope this helps some...good luck!  

Answer 5

Well, let's say some dancers learn it faster than others and are more flexible which just makes dancing easier to learn. This goes for all dancing. You can tell if they dance it in the right way the first time and learn it easier, but sometimes they practice a lot at home,so they become good faster and some people confuse them for naturals. But if you learn the right skills and you enjoy dancing, then anyone can become a dancer! =)

Answer 6

No one begins ballet as a natural. It takes hard work and perserverence to become good. I think the term natural more refers to the dancers who have an easier time learning steps and make things look really easy.

Answer 7

Some people can be naturals. Some people have to practice their butts off to get to where it looks like they're naturals.

In order for it to truly be dance, you have to feel the music.
