00:00:30Hi, my name is Hope.
00:00:33Welcome to my world.
00:00:37Part ballerina,
00:00:40part softball player.
00:00:46Half the time, I don't know which one I am.
00:01:05My dad makes sure it's all about softball, softball, softball.
00:01:11Hi!
00:01:13Thank you!
00:01:15That could be you someday.
00:01:18And whenever dad's not looking, mom swoops in and suddenly it's adagio, allegro, plie, plie.
00:01:24You are gonna be a prima ballerina. I just know it.
00:01:30Okay, let's do it again.
00:01:33Sometimes I think my parents are getting more out of it than I am.
00:01:36Dance is in her blood. She has amazing talent.
00:01:40And she's even better on the ball field.
00:01:42She could go to the Little League World Series or get a scholarship or even go to the Olympics.
00:01:47Why all the focus on me? All Benji does is read books.
00:01:50Books are more fulfilling than tutu slippers, bats and balls.
00:01:55Can we please just have a nice meal together?
00:01:58Look, I'm just saying that I know talent on the ball field and she has it.
00:02:02We should give Hope a chance to go all the way with that.
00:02:06I know talent in dance and she has that.
00:02:10And that is something that will stay with her the rest of her life.
00:02:13I mean, I love both. I don't know if I'm ready to commit to either of them.
00:02:17I've spent hundreds of hours pitching to you and hitting to you.
00:02:20Honey, this isn't about what we've done. This is an opportunity for Hope to be able to express herself.
00:02:28And dance does that.
00:02:30Hope can express herself?
00:02:32Benji, just keep eating.
00:02:33Before a debate on what everyone else thinks my life should be, may I be excused?
00:02:38What? You haven't even...
00:02:43Oh, that's great.
00:02:44That's great.
00:02:46I'm just...
00:02:47Trey.
00:02:49Really?
00:02:49Can we just... I mean, is it going to be...
00:02:51No, it doesn't have to be that every...
00:02:58Are you okay, honey?
00:03:01Why does life feel like I'm a character in everyone else's play?
00:03:06Oh, come now.
00:03:07It may feel that way, but your mom and dad love you.
00:03:12And they want great things for you.
00:03:15I can't tell what they want from what I want.
00:03:19Well, that's understandable.
00:03:23But don't you worry.
00:03:25You will find your place.
00:03:28Trust me.
00:03:49You are hurt.
00:03:50You are hurt.
00:03:53You are hurt.
00:04:09Are you hurt?
00:04:16I am out.
00:04:18Would you ask your body for like all those other 초 interested in having strong a Muhammad?
00:04:19Can I do both?
00:04:29This is Kayla.
00:04:31We've been best friends for as long as I can remember.
00:04:41It sure is getting harder, the amount of practice.
00:04:44I know, it used to just be once a week.
00:04:47Now it's pretty much every day.
00:04:50Do you think it's really worth it?
00:04:52I mean, that's hard to say.
00:04:55It's really fun to be really good at something.
00:04:58I guess we're not little girls anymore.
00:05:01I guess.
00:05:14Duet competition.
00:05:19I'm so excited.
00:05:29We have a lot of things going on this month, but first I want to introduce a new student that
00:05:33we have.
00:05:34Her name is Dani, and she just moved into the area.
00:05:37So let's all give her a warm welcome.
00:05:41All right, ladies, we're going to start.
00:05:43First position, we're starting with plies.
00:05:45And five, six, seven, eight, and one, two, three, four.
00:05:53Very nice, Hope.
00:05:54Seven, eight, and beautiful, Dani.
00:05:58Four, five, six, posture, Kayla, posture.
00:06:02One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
00:06:10Good job, everyone.
00:06:12All right, we have a very special guest today.
00:06:26Tchaikovsky.
00:06:28My name is Yuri Balanov.
00:06:30I am the executive director of the Nutcracker Ballet and the owner of the Ballet Academy.
00:06:36This year, I will be attending the duet competitions.
00:06:41And from there, I will be selecting qualified dancers to audition for the Nutcracker Ballet.
00:06:49There are so many roles, but there is one role that is the most precious.
00:06:56The role of Clara.
00:06:58The lead role.
00:07:00To win it, you must be in love with it.
00:07:06So, I will see you at the duet competitions.
00:07:11Be at your best.
00:07:15Dani's so gonna get this.
00:07:17She's totally gonna get Clara.
00:07:35This is my chance.
00:07:43What was it like to be in a real dance company?
00:07:46Oh, it was like a dream.
00:07:51Really.
00:07:52Oh, I want so much for you to have that.
00:07:55Not for me.
00:07:56For you.
00:07:58I mean, when I had to stop dancing, that was my passion.
00:08:03I mean, no surprise.
00:08:04I loved everything about it.
00:08:06The wood floors.
00:08:07The musty smell of an old studio.
00:08:10I like the cute leotards and my hair in a bun.
00:08:13Well, that is pretty great, too.
00:08:15I just see myself so much in you.
00:08:18I wish you could see you when you're in the studio.
00:08:21Your lines.
00:08:22Your grace.
00:08:23You're magnificent.
00:08:26I don't know if I have what it takes.
00:08:28This all seems so hard.
00:08:49Come on, Hope.
00:08:57Come on, Hope.
00:08:59Yes!
00:09:01Here we go.
00:09:03Yes!
00:09:17The All-Star Game is coming up.
00:09:19We can only send one person.
00:09:20You got a shot.
00:09:22You're in the running.
00:09:23Yeah.
00:09:24You just gotta want it and work hard.
00:09:27Can you do that?
00:09:29Alright.
00:09:30Alright.
00:09:32Let's go, girls.
00:09:33What do you say?
00:09:33What do you say?
00:09:34Alright.
00:09:37Alright.
00:09:38All-Star Game, huh?
00:09:40That's awesome.
00:09:43Just means we're gonna have to add some more practices.
00:09:46I'd like to, but I already need to miss a few games because of ballet.
00:09:50Or you can miss some ballet practices for the ball games.
00:09:53Come on.
00:09:53Let's go.
00:10:02To be really good at something, you have to work super hard.
00:10:08To be good at two things seems impossible.
00:10:15But I want to make mom and dad happy.
00:10:20I got work to do.
00:10:30Dancers, pair off!
00:10:32The duet competition is just around the corner.
00:10:59Hope let me see ya, there you go, seven, eight, and pop the girl, good job, Caleb, I know.
00:11:15Hey dancer girl, don't even try to catch my home run.
00:11:48Do you think that we push hope more than we should?
00:11:51Some parents send their kids to live full-time in a training center.
00:11:56We're not that extreme.
00:12:08Come on, sweetie, we've got baseball practice.
00:12:10Let's go, honey, it's time for ballet.
00:12:12Come on, sweetie, we've got baseball practice.
00:12:14Let's go, Hope.
00:12:16We're going to baseball practice, ballet's tomorrow.
00:12:18Come on.
00:12:19Let's go, Hope.
00:12:20Come on, Hope.
00:12:21Come on, Hope.
00:12:22Come on, Hope.
00:12:33They can't figure out what they want me to be.
00:12:42And I can't figure out what I want to be either.
00:12:55How can you read a book and watch TV at the same time?
00:12:59How can you do ballet and play ball at the same time?
00:13:02In Swan Lake.
00:13:03And here she is.
00:13:05Look, it's Natasha Tivoli.
00:13:08My favorite ballerina.
00:13:10How does it feel?
00:13:10Lead dancer at a ballet in your home state.
00:13:14It feels amazing.
00:13:15It's been such a long journey and I'm just so excited to be back.
00:13:19What is your favorite ballet?
00:13:22I adore Swan Lake and I hope everybody comes to see it.
00:13:25But my absolute favorite would have to be the Nutcracker.
00:13:29Natasha received her training from Yuri Balanoff at the local ballet academy.
00:13:36If I want to be as good as Natasha Tivoli, I need to see where she trained.
00:14:09So, young lady.
00:14:11You come to my home.
00:14:17You look like a dancer.
00:14:20But you must apply.
00:14:22Everyone must apply.
00:14:23It is very difficult to get in.
00:14:27I have a class.
00:14:35Let's begin.
00:14:38Yuri said I have to be at my best.
00:14:42If I want to get into that Nutcracker audition, I have a lot of work to do.
00:15:09I have a class.
00:15:10We'll be at my rest.
00:15:10You're the best.
00:15:10You're the best.
00:15:15You're the best.
00:15:16I put my mind to
00:15:17When life gets hard
00:15:20I reach deep inside
00:15:22It's so clear to me
00:15:25The best yet to come
00:15:40Cause I believe, yes I believe
00:15:43The best is yet to come
00:15:46And I believe I can achieve
00:15:48Anything else put my mind to
00:15:51When life gets hard
00:15:53I reach deep inside
00:15:55It's so plain to see
00:15:59The best yet to come
00:16:00Now I believe, yes I believe
00:16:04Oh, oh
00:16:05I believe, yes I believe
00:16:09Oh, oh
00:16:10I believe, yes I believe
00:16:35I believe
00:16:38I believe, yes I believe
00:16:46Hope, you have got so much potential, but you have to commit.
00:16:50I'm trying, but I'm going to be missing classes due to ballgames.
00:16:56Well, if you're going to make it in ballet, you're going to have to put in the time.
00:17:08Ready, Hope?
00:17:10To win it, you must be in love with it.
00:17:16Which means we're going to have to add some more practices.
00:17:19Or you can miss some ballet practices for the ballgames.
00:17:21I wish you could see you when you're going to make it in ballet.
00:17:24You're going to have to put in the time.
00:17:25You're magnificent.
00:17:27Hope!
00:17:35I want to talk to you about something important.
00:17:38Sure.
00:17:40Anytime.
00:17:47I don't want to do softball anymore.
00:17:51I want to focus more on ballet.
00:17:57I don't understand.
00:18:01But you have so much talent.
00:18:04You're just going to give up on your dream?
00:18:07I'm sorry, but it's not my dream.
00:18:12Hope, I don't think you're thinking this all the way through.
00:18:15I mean, what about your teammates?
00:18:18Or the all-star team?
00:18:19Or the Olympics someday?
00:18:21Dad.
00:18:24So you're just going to be a quitter?
00:18:47Ready for liftoff.
00:18:49Three, two, one, liftoff!
00:18:52I just want to step off.
00:18:53Oh, God.

00:19:10They're just evolffing.

00:20:05Nice.
00:20:07Hope.
00:20:14Very nice.
00:20:16All right, now both of you together.
00:20:18And a five, six, seven, eight.
00:20:26Wonderful.
00:20:28All right, as you all know, the duet competition is soon,
00:20:31and only five teams are going to make it to the state finals.
00:20:39Hi, I'm Hope.
00:20:41I'm Danny.
00:20:42You know, you're a really good dancer.
00:20:46So are you.
00:20:48You know, we should really hang out sometime.
00:20:52Yeah.
00:20:52Yeah, that would be cool.
00:21:05Bye, Dad.
00:21:06Hi, Danny.
00:21:10I'm going to show you the coolest thing.
00:21:19How's your duet coming?
00:21:20Not bad.
00:21:21Yours?
00:21:22Okay.
00:21:23I wish we were partners.
00:21:27Ooh, ballet magazine.
00:21:31Natasha Tipoli.
00:21:32It would be so cool to meet her.
00:21:35You know, when she was younger, she danced at the Academy of Ballet.
00:21:38You know, the one across town.
00:21:40Really?
00:21:41Yeah.
00:21:41She's so awesome.
00:21:43Um, I would die to be Clara, the star of the Nutcracker.
00:21:49You know, only one person can be Clara.
00:21:53Grab me.
00:22:00Look at her turnout.
00:22:09Clara.
00:22:24Bye, Dad.
00:22:25Have a good one.
00:22:26Hey, Coach.
00:22:41My dad never comes to watch me dance.
00:22:44I just wish he cared more.
00:22:48They're just busy.
00:22:50Don't feel bad.
00:22:52Parents.
00:23:01Actually, can I give me the adjustable?
00:23:02Yeah.
00:23:03Yeah.
00:23:04All right.
00:23:05You are all set.
00:23:06Power's back on.
00:23:08I really owe you for this.
00:23:10Big time.
00:23:10It's all good.
00:23:18Hey.
00:23:19I got you covered there.
00:23:21Yeah.
00:23:24Everything was going so perfect.
00:23:26The game.
00:23:28The momentum.
00:23:29Well, unfortunately, there's no user manual for 11-year-old girls.
00:23:36Everybody's life has a plan.
00:23:40And Hope, she has her own path, regardless of how difficult it might be to understand.
00:23:47You know, there's a time when Hope got ill, and the docs couldn't figure it out.
00:23:59And I thought, maybe this means no more sports, that magic father-daughter time.
00:24:10And I vowed that if she got well, that I would back her in whatever she wanted to be.
00:24:18And I said that I would back her.
00:24:23I gotta go.
00:24:43What are you up to?
00:24:45Oh, just fixing my bike.
00:24:48You know, I've been known to repair a bicycle or two in my day.
00:24:52Can I help you?
00:24:54I can figure it out.
00:24:56I'm not a quitter.
00:25:01Maybe try that one right there.
00:25:06It's just a thought.
00:25:07I mean, it's called a spanner.
00:25:11I can show you how to use it for two seconds, and then you can try it all on your
00:25:16own.
00:25:17Sound good?
00:25:20Fine.
00:25:21But I'm still not a quitter.
00:25:23I know.
00:25:25So you just loosen that knot and the wheel comes off?
00:25:28Mm-hmm.
00:25:29I can have the socket wrench.
00:25:34Actually, give me the regular wrench there.
00:25:39So, I need to make it up to Mom for being a jerk, right?
00:25:45So, I set us up for a dance lesson.
00:25:50An actual dance lesson?
00:25:53Yeah.
00:25:55A real dance lesson.
00:25:58So, I was thinking...
00:26:00Maybe you could show me some moves.
00:26:04You know, just for a minute.
00:26:07So...
00:26:08I don't make a complete fool myself.
00:26:12Fine.
00:26:13But just for two seconds.
00:26:14Of course.
00:26:16Absolutely.
00:26:21Okay.
00:26:25Maybe a waltz?
00:26:27Sure.
00:26:28You're going to put your hand on my waist.
00:26:30Okay, just follow me.
00:26:33One, two, three.
00:26:35One, two.
00:26:37One.
00:26:38Yeah, you're good.
00:26:39Okay.
00:26:39One, two.
00:26:41Because you're always going to start with your left leg.
00:26:43I love you.
00:26:45I love you.
00:26:53Huh?
00:26:54Uh-huh.
00:26:55Yeah, you're getting it.
00:26:57Oh, you're great.
00:27:00You're not too bad yourself.
00:27:02Oh, jeez.
00:27:07Look, I think I owe you an apology.
00:27:10Because I never really respected your dream to dance.
00:27:14That's okay.
00:27:17That was really fun.
00:27:19And hard.
00:27:38Can you help me fix my putt shoes?
00:27:40Sure.
00:27:44Your shoes are falling apart.
00:27:48Can you sew?
00:27:50Me?
00:27:51Sewing master.
00:27:57So you take the needle.
00:27:59Take the thread.
00:28:01Take the point shoe.
00:28:03Your ribbons are falling out of the shoe.
00:28:07What did you do?
00:28:16Ballet can be pretty competitive.
00:28:18I hope we don't become competitors.
00:28:34Hey, y'all.
00:28:35Hey, Danny.
00:28:37Hi, Danny.
00:28:39How are you liking your new life here?
00:28:41New town, new city.
00:28:42I love it here.
00:28:43It's so great.
00:28:45Everyone's been so nice.
00:28:47And how about the dance studio?
00:28:48I hear Miss Vivi is very impressed.
00:28:52Yeah, it's a lot of hard work.
00:28:54I just wish we could do the duet together.
00:28:56The ballet academy is even more difficult.
00:28:59Kids come from all over to train there.
00:29:02I'd like to see Hope train there one day.
00:29:04Maybe we'll both get in.
00:29:06Let's go straight.
00:29:07Okay, see you girls.
00:29:08Bye, everyone.
00:29:11Say a little high five.
00:29:13Okay.
00:29:36Kayla, let's try this.
00:29:43Okay, it's your turn.
00:29:58I bet you wish Danny was your duet partner.
00:30:01That's not true.
00:30:02You don't have to pretend.
00:30:04I know you've been spending a lot of time with her.
00:30:06We haven't hung out in a while.
00:30:08I'm sorry I haven't been around as much.
00:30:12But you really are my best friend.
00:30:15And I would never, ever give you up.
00:30:18Even if it means we lose the duet competition?
00:30:21We're not gonna lose.
00:30:23Come on, let's try that move again.
00:30:38So the duet, it's gonna mean more practice.
00:30:42What's wrong?
00:30:45I have to quit.
00:30:47What?
00:30:48Phoebe's been letting me train for free, but not anymore.
00:30:57My mom can't afford to pay.
00:31:01I had no idea.
00:31:05Don't worry.
00:31:06I have an idea.
00:31:21Why?
00:31:23Take a party.
00:32:04Yeah, you can put it in the back.
00:32:07Hey, girls!
00:32:08Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up!
00:32:09Hi!
00:32:10What is this?
00:32:12Oh, thank you, honey.
00:32:22You need any help?
00:32:25So, I'm sorry.
00:32:28And I want to be on the same page.
00:32:31I want to support you.
00:32:32I want to support you.
00:32:37That's why on that note, I thought about it.
00:32:41And I got us a dance lesson.
00:32:49Wait, are there cameras around?
00:32:51Is this one of those shows?
00:32:52It's a private instructor, you and me, tomorrow night.
00:32:58Oh, we have a dance lesson.
00:33:00Yeah?
00:33:01You and me?
00:33:02We get to dress up.
00:33:03No, I didn't say anything about dressing up.
00:33:05Oh, we are dressing up.
00:33:06We're dressing up!
00:33:09I didn't say anything about dressing up.
00:33:14What have I got myself into?
00:33:17Hi, Kayla.
00:33:19It's Hope.
00:33:20I haven't heard back from you.
00:33:22We are practicing our duet today, right?
00:33:26The competition is very soon.
00:33:31See you there?
00:33:45I'm sorry.
00:33:57I'm sorry.
00:34:07I'm sorry.
00:34:09I'm sorry.
00:34:10I'm sorry.
00:34:10I'm sorry.
00:34:10I'm sorry.
00:34:10I'm sorry.
00:34:10I'm sorry.
00:34:11I'm sorry.
00:34:24Oh, my God.
00:34:27I'm so sorry.
00:34:29Of course, if there's anything that we can do, please let me know.
00:34:34Okay.
00:34:36What? What?
00:34:38Kayla was in a car accident.
00:35:06How are you feeling?
00:35:09I'm tired. I can't feel my legs.
00:35:16I'm afraid.
00:35:19It's going to be okay.
00:35:23Before, I was worried about being good enough to be your dance partner.
00:35:28Now, I may never dance again.
00:35:31You are still the same person.
00:35:35This won't change anything.
00:35:37Oh, please pick a new duet partner.
00:35:41I can't be...
00:35:42I'm not picking a new duet partner.
00:35:44You can't stop dancing because of me.
00:35:51Okay.
00:36:04Are you all right?
00:36:07Kayla.
00:36:09You don't have to talk about it.
00:36:11Times like this can be so hard.
00:36:15Let's go get some lunch.
00:36:29Oh, my gosh.
00:36:31I heard what happened to Kayla.
00:36:33What's going on?
00:36:35She can't move her legs.
00:36:46She can't move her legs.
00:37:05Here we go.
00:37:14She can't move her legs.
00:37:21She can't move her legs.
00:37:28She can't move her legs.
00:37:52How can I pursue my dream when my best friend lost hers?
00:38:05Hey, Hope. Kayla's free to move around a bit. Do you want to take her outside or go get some
00:38:11lunch?
00:38:11Sure.
00:38:14What are you doing? You're free!
00:38:28Hey, I know. Let's dance.
00:38:31Stop joking.
00:38:33No, really.
00:38:36No, I can't dance anymore.
00:39:11Hi, Mrs. Smith.
00:39:12Oh, hi, Hope. I'm sorry about Kayla.
00:39:17Thank you, sweetie. Hope, I hope you can understand. It's time for Kayla to accept her new condition.
00:39:29But maybe there's still a chance. Hope, I need for Kayla to be realistic. Please don't set unrealistic expectations.
00:39:42Nurse.
00:39:48Hey, you look kind of exhausted.
00:39:49I am exhausted.
00:39:51Well, maybe you should get some sleep.
00:39:54Have you decided that you're still skipping the duet competition?
00:39:58All I know is that I feel awful for ditching my friend just because she was a next it.
00:40:04There are ways to honor Kayla, like continuing to dance, like completing the duet competition.
00:40:11I just don't feel my best.
00:40:16She's so tired.
00:40:18I know. I feel bad for her.
00:40:23Mom, I think this road trip you're going to take Hope on tomorrow is amazing. What an incredible idea.
00:40:30I feel that Hope needs some space to think, to breathe, to clear her mind.
00:40:42I think what you need is a little R&R.
00:40:45What's R&R?
00:40:47Old fashioned rest and relaxation.
00:40:53So where did you get this thing?
00:40:56Oh, I have my connections.
00:40:58You're just so full of surprises.
00:41:47There's still something on your mind.
00:41:49The duet competition.
00:41:51I feel like I just can't do it without Kayla.
00:41:54And everyone says I need a new partner.
00:41:58Well, there's a quote on that.
00:42:00You can make some of the people happy all of the time.
00:42:04You can make all of the people happy some of the time.
00:42:07But never all the people all the time.
00:42:11Abe Lincoln.
00:42:12You got it.
00:42:15But he didn't do ballet and play softball.
00:42:39Five, six, seven, eight, and step, step. Rock, step. Step, step, step.
00:42:47There it is. You're doing the swing.
00:42:50Did you say I stink?
00:42:51No, she said you're a prince.
00:42:54Oh, thank you.
00:42:55Two left feet in motion.
00:42:57Wow.
00:42:59Great.
00:43:02That was like a reverse dip.
00:43:04Thank you so much, Vivi.
00:43:06Oh, you're very, very welcome.
00:43:07You have a fun evening.
00:43:08You too. Have a great night.
00:43:12You're amazing.
00:43:13I don't know about that.
00:43:14That was incredible.
00:43:15You're amazing.
00:43:22Happy anniversary.
00:43:23What?
00:43:24I know it's a little early, but go ahead.
00:43:27Well, look at you.
00:43:30What?
00:43:31Wait, wait for it.
00:43:33Don't judge a ball by its cover.
00:43:40Oh, my God.
00:43:42You amazing, wonderful man.
00:43:47I love you.
00:43:48Cheers.
00:43:51Hey, this is Hope.
00:43:55So, I've decided I'm going to do the duet competition.
00:43:59Are you in?
00:44:03Okay.
00:44:04Here you go.
00:44:05Good luck.
00:44:06Put the phone away.
00:44:07Oh, we are so lucky.
00:44:10Hi, Vivi.
00:44:11Hi, girls.
00:44:12Names?
00:44:42Thanks.
00:45:13Very well done, dancers three and four.
00:45:17You will advance to the finals.
00:45:23Congratulations, you guys. Good job.
00:45:27Good luck, sweetie.
00:45:29Good luck, sis.
00:45:32Deep breath. Show them what you've got.
00:45:39Welcome, team seven and eight.
00:45:44You are a duet, yes?
00:45:46Yes.
00:45:52Mom, are you in on this little secret?
00:46:15You're in on this little secret.
00:46:44I'm in on this little secret.
00:46:55We are so pleased to be able to witness your wonderful effort.
00:47:01We are not able to give you a pass to the finals.
00:47:05We look forward to seeing you next year.
00:47:16I'm sorry. I wish we could have done better.
00:47:20Don't apologize. I don't care if we lose every competition.
00:47:24I'm not going to give up on my friend.
00:47:31Wait.
00:47:36I saw potential out there.
00:47:40Can you do a solo for me?
00:47:43Right now.
00:47:48Hope Douglas, please step up to the stage.
00:48:03Hope, you have one chance to dance solo.
00:48:09To dance for your life.
00:48:11Are you making an exception?
00:48:29Oh, oh.
00:48:33Oh, oh.
00:48:41Oh, oh.
00:49:13Oh, you've got a lot of work to do.
00:49:14Your lines, your legwork, your presentation.
00:49:20I would like you to consider training at my ballet academy.
00:49:29I would like to invite you to audition for the role of Clara in the Nutcracker Ballet.
00:49:44That's amazing, I can't even believe it, come on.
00:49:47Wow.
00:50:00I know.
00:50:08I did a double that.
00:50:17Can you believe we both made it into the ballet academy?
00:50:21I'm going to miss this place.
00:50:23Good luck, girls.
00:50:24I hope one of you wins the role of Clara.
00:50:33Are we competitors?
00:50:39Sweetie, don't worry about it.
00:50:40You got this.
00:50:41You're going to do great.
00:50:43Thanks.
00:50:44All right, good luck.
00:50:45Thanks.
00:50:46Bye.
00:50:47Bye.
00:50:47Honey, do you have your bag?
00:50:49Yep.
00:50:49Where are the keys?
00:50:51They're in the ignition.
00:50:52Oh, God.
00:50:54Listen, will you just run in and grab my sunglasses, and then we're out of here?
00:50:57Okay, check your head first.
00:51:02Listen, I need you to focus.
00:51:04Okay, this is your one chance.
00:51:07Time to show them what you've got.
00:51:09Okay?
00:51:10We are going to be late.
00:51:11Okay.
00:51:12We are going to be late.
00:51:54Okay, everyone.
00:51:56Eyes to me.
00:51:59We have two new dancers joining us.
00:52:03Hope.
00:52:05And Danny.
00:52:09This ballet academy is a privilege and a challenge.
00:52:15If you work hard, it will take you to the top.
00:52:19If you give less than 100%, you might as well go home now.
00:52:30All right.
00:52:31Please show them the warm-up sequence.
00:52:45Put the bra into the bar.
00:52:53Away from the bar.
00:53:01Again.
00:53:02Please.
00:53:03In ballet, we need precision.
00:53:04I am not seeing precision.
00:53:07All right.
00:53:08Pliés.
00:53:11Pliés.
00:53:11Pliés, what are you?
00:53:12Trying to lay an egg?
00:53:15Show me a real plié.
00:53:16Hope.
00:53:18This is not a playground.
00:53:21I need strict attention.
00:53:27Focus.
00:53:28Now.
00:53:30Changement.
00:53:31Point your feet.
00:53:33Knees.
00:53:35Harder.
00:53:37Up.
00:53:38Up.
00:53:39Stronger.
00:53:41Push yourselves.
00:53:49If you don't master the basics, you will never get past an audition.
00:53:53Danny, very well done.
00:53:55You pick up fast.
00:54:02Step forward, girls.
00:54:05Now.
00:54:07Fifth position.
00:54:11Five.
00:54:13Six.
00:54:14Seven.
00:54:15Plie coupé.
00:54:19Lift higher.
00:54:22Faster feet.
00:54:30Eyes forward.
00:54:32Paribasque.
00:54:42Up.
00:54:43Up.
00:54:44Don't let up.
00:54:45This is not a playground.
00:54:47This is an academy.
00:54:53Rest.
00:54:58Is this always this hard?
00:54:59Yes, always.
00:55:03Back to it, dancers.
00:55:06Back to it.
00:55:08Back to it.
00:55:29That was a seriously hard class.
00:55:32Totally right.
00:55:34Now crack our auditions.
00:55:35Pretty soon.
00:55:36I'm so not ready.
00:55:39Neither am I.
00:55:40Do you think either of us could get the part?
00:55:54What would you do if your best friend turned into your opponent?
00:55:58Oh, that is a tough one.
00:56:00I guess I would ask myself if my friend was really the opponent, or if maybe the opponent
00:56:08was really just me.
00:56:11So you mean, I could be my own opponent?
00:56:15Oh, sure.
00:56:16Happens all the time.
00:56:19Seems that we're competing against others.
00:56:23But maybe we're just competing to be the very best we can be.
00:56:51Oh, no time for mistakes.
00:56:57Don't forget, dancers, auditions for the Nutcracker Ballet are in two days.
00:57:02If you think you are ready for it, see you tomorrow.
00:57:08Hope.
00:57:10Just a moment.
00:57:12Hope.
00:57:18You have a great deal of work to do before the Nutcracker auditions.
00:57:25I think maybe we wait until next year.
00:57:33You know, Hope has a love of dance, but I don't know if she has a love of all the
00:57:38issues
00:57:39that come with being a dancer.
00:57:41I had my worries about that new academy.
00:57:44Maybe it was too soon.
00:57:46But she's just as good as those other girls.
00:58:05That's a long time ago.
00:58:07Dancers, we have a surprise visitor, my first student to ever enter a premier dance company.
00:58:19Natasha Tivoli, she was once just like you.
00:58:24Please resist the urge to bother her.
00:58:29Class dismissed.
00:58:41Excuse me.
00:58:44I'm sorry.
00:58:45Your shoes, they seem like magic.
00:58:47They were a gift from my dad when I was a kid.
00:58:50Well, he's in the hospital right now.
00:58:51That's why I'm in town.
00:58:52I'm sorry.
00:58:55Am I bothering you?
00:58:56Can I, can I watch?
00:58:57Sorry, I need my privacy.
00:59:00Any chance you might.
00:59:01I, I have an audition and...
00:59:03Sorry, no time.
00:59:04And I'm an awful teacher anyway.
00:59:07See you later.
00:59:24Allie, Allie, Allie, Allie, Allie, Allie, Allie, Allie, Allie, Allie.
00:59:34Hey, new girl.
00:59:36How about a little game of add-on?
00:59:38How about a little game?
01:00:01Reminds me of me when I was a kid.
01:00:15You've got this, Hope.
01:00:26You've got this, Hope.
01:00:31I was a kid.
01:00:32Better지approل.
01:00:46I did all 하니까.
01:00:47All these after-loop.
01:00:48Piper.
01:00:48Bye bye.
01:00:48Bye bye.
01:00:59Try and over.
01:04:22Try again.
01:04:36Let's do it together.
01:04:54Good.
01:04:56Not too bad.
01:05:00So, you're only here a few days and you're ready to train with Latasha?
01:05:03You think you can be Clara in the Nutcracker just like that?
01:05:09She thinks she can do anything.
01:05:44How are you liking the academy?
01:05:46It's amazing.
01:05:47It's the hardest thing I've ever faced.
01:05:49Well, except for one other thing, but...
01:05:53Harder than ballet?
01:05:54Well, my best friend was just at a car accident.
01:05:59That's difficult.
01:06:00But even the most difficult situations have hope.
01:06:05It's like dance.
01:06:06You have a movement that you practice over and over again, and you never get it.
01:06:11Your mind, it gets in the way.
01:06:13But if instead, you have an image, an image of the outcome, and you hold on to that image with
01:06:19everything you've got...
01:06:21Does that work?
01:06:22For ballet, it does.
01:06:24In real life, such as with your friend or with my father, it's a way to find strength.
01:06:36You need to be prepared.
01:06:39As a dancer, you may find yourself getting up at any hour, traveling to any part of the world.
01:06:45You have to be ready to dance at any time.
01:06:48Swollen neck, torn muscles, your pointe shoes breaking just before the performance.
01:06:52Having to dance in front of 5,000 people with the worst flute you've ever had.
01:06:57It can be brutal.
01:06:59Are you sure you want to go through with this?
01:07:01More than ever.
01:07:03Thought so.
01:07:29Oh, I never wear these.
01:07:33Dancing on pointe.
01:07:35A thousand pounds of pressure on your toes.
01:07:38Blisters, broken toenails, calluses, you name it.
01:07:42But, it's how you deliver the magic on stage.
01:07:46This is all I got.
01:07:48You should have seen my shoes when I was your age.
01:07:52I love you.
01:07:55I love you.
01:08:00Go and do this.
01:08:00I don't know.
01:08:00I love you, everyone.
01:08:01It's so much.
01:08:03I love you, Mary.
01:08:04I love you.
01:08:06You can do this.
01:08:08I love you, Mary.
01:08:12I love you.
01:08:17I love you.
01:08:21so why do you do it really it's my identity it's how I found myself when I
01:08:27was young everyone's different but for me ballet fits like a glove I can't
01:08:34imagine are you asleep let's go get some fresh air okay
01:09:07so
01:09:16so
01:09:18so
01:09:40I know you've been working on this, and are you sure you know all the steps?
01:09:48Honey, there's gonna be some serious competition.
01:09:53I've been practicing my steps every day.
01:09:56Okay, but this is your one chance.
01:09:58There's gonna be some serious competition.
01:10:01You need to be your best.
01:10:03The best.
01:10:04Are you ready?
01:10:11You're being a little hard on Hope.
01:10:14That's the only way she's gonna get this role.
01:10:16Maybe you're pushing too hard.
01:10:19She needs pushing to get this role.
01:10:22I mean, if I had been pushed harder, Jay, I might have gone further.
01:10:27Yeah.
01:10:37Isn't it your audition tomorrow?
01:10:40I'm so nervous.
01:10:41I'm gonna explode.
01:10:44When I was your age, at my very first audition, I just froze.
01:10:48I completely forgot how to dance.
01:10:52But then I stopped trying.
01:10:55I stopped thinking.
01:10:56I stopped worrying.
