In this episode of the dance diaries, you'll go behind the scenes of a ballet photoshoot in NYC, come to an adult ballet class and see the craziness that came about when getting my first PAID job as a ballet dancer EVER.

I was NOT expecting to model for this big brand, I really just thought I was helping out a friend. As an adult ballerina learning ballet in my 30s, I was shocked when I was chosen to be part of this campaign shoot. I'm not a professional dancer (or even a very good dancer) so I felt pretty shy and awkward throughout the modeling process, but even so, it was a total dream come true!

I hope you enjoy seeing the process of how this photoshoot came together and if you like videos like this, don't forget to subscribe to my channel for weeks in the life of an adult ballerina in NYC!

HI, I'M VERONICA VICCORA

Hi there! I'm Veronica, welcome to my beginner dance journey. When I was 17, I was told by a teacher that I would never be a ballerina. I let that thought control me for YEARS but now, in my late 20s, I moved to New York City and I'm finally starting ballet late. This is a space for me to document the ups and downs of learning how to do ballet in my 20s and show anyone that it's never too late to live your dreams.
