“Dancing with your feet is one thing. Dancing with the heart is another,” Biby Gaytán wrote on social networks when remembering her connection with classical dance.
That passion has been passed on to her family: from the former member of Timbiriche to her daughter Ana Paula, and now to Alejandra Capetillo, who returns to ballet after almost a decade.
The model, based in Europe, shared on Instagram the preparations for her first class in nine years. “I danced ballet until I was 17 years old and much of that time my mother was my teacher,” she said in a video while showing pink tights.
Ale recalled that Biby Gaytán had her own ballet academy and included a clip of the singer demonstrating her pointe technique, with the comment: “She’s a real pro.”
During filming, the content creator tried on different leotards and mentioned that one reminded her of her mother. Her husband, Nader Shoueiry, accompanied her and showed off some looks while Ale posed with dance moves.
“Little is said about the fact that my mother was a sergeant with me: in classes she told me ‘here I am not your mother, here I am my teacher,'” added Alejandra, highlighting Gaytán’s discipline.
The model confessed to feeling nervous about arriving at a class without acquaintances, although also excited to return to this stage.
