I love this video. It’s a simple portrait of a 95-year old ballet teacher, Maia Helles. She doesn’t teach or dance ballet per se in this clip, but you can see the dancer in her in the way she moves, in the way she does her morning exercises. Here’s hoping that we’re all so limber, articulate, and lovely when we’re 95!
I found this powerful because you can see the positive impression that dance has made on this woman’s life, again confirming that dance is for all people, at every age.
This is soooooooooooo inspiring. thank you for posting this!
She is beautiful. And I love her home, too. It’s so quaint and charming and peaceful. Amazing.
So lovely. I’m posting this on my blog today. Thank you for sharing! ❤

That is incredibly inspiring. I’m glad I found this blog
Wow, she’s beautiful in every way! My own grandmother is getting up there in age (88) and still looking that good, but definitely not moving like that. Wow!
