When parents, friends, and family arrive at a ballet recital, they expect nothing more than adorable ballerinas who are ready to put on a show of their best spins, twirls, and pirouettes in colorful tutus.
However, the audience was very surprised when two of the boisterous ballerinas busted some moves of their own in the middle of a cover of Somewhere Over the Rainbow.
The performance between the two prima ballerinas was captured between fits of giggles and snickers as they began to battle it out mid-stage.
It all started as a peaceful recital
The tiny dancers started all lined up on stage clad in sparkling tiaras, rainbow tutus, and pastel leotard. They were ready to begin their dance to the song Somewhere Over the Rainbow.
The little dancers were off to a graceful start, swaying and twirling to the music. But after only a few pirouettes, pliés, and poses, two little girls were determined to show off their own style for the audience.
The ballerina brawl begins
A short forty seconds into the performance, a seemingly bored Freya, tiptoed over to the taller of the tiny warriors – Raegan. At first, Raegan tried not to get distracted and continued with the dance performance.
However, that didn’t last. She finally uttered a few unheard words to tiny Freya, followed by a prod to the chest and a little shove.
Freya, although smaller, did not stand for this and pushed and prodded in retaliation. The little but growing brawl continued between the ballerinas all while the other dancers continued with the routine around them. This understandably caused the audience to burst into fits of laughter.
Dancing through it all
The ballerina in the front of the stage is the pure definition of “the show must go on” as she continues to dance and spin despite Freya and Raegan bickering behind her. All of the other little girls also seem oblivious to the fight taking place mid-stage.
Bodyguards arrive on the scene
Even though little Raegan and Freya had everything under control, the ‘bodyguards’ arrived after a minute to separate the two fighters before matters could get out of hand.
Their teachers pulled them apart and returned them to their positions on stage while parents laughed and cheered in the audience.
A show that won’t be forgotten
Parents thought they would be watching a peaceful ballet recital, but they got to witness a rare ‘dance-off’ between two otherwise seemingly sweet ballerinas.
The night is definitely one that will be remembered by both ballerinas and the audience alike. Thankfully, they aren’t the only ones who have been able to get a laugh from it. Since the video has been uploaded, it has received over 120,000 views on YouTube and continues to climb.
People who saw the video on YouTube couldn’t help but comment:
“My money was on the little one. She wasn’t having any of it. And if the mom’s didn’t show up, she had the death look going on. I could tell it was about to get all crazy up in here.”

“’She’s boring I want to dance with you’ ‘No!’ ‘Well, I will’ ‘Did you push me?’ ‘Don’t push me?’ ‘Hands off you shrimp?’ ‘Would you two shut up I have moves to show off!’”

While Raegan and Freya have made the recital one to remember, perhaps their parents should consider allowing them to hone their fighting skills in martial arts class instead of ballet!
