South Florida dancer teaches NFL player Rob Gronkowski ballet

The ballerina from the Miami City Ballet who taught Rob Gronkowski aka “Gronk” to dance is talking about her lesson plan.

Gronkowski isn’t afraid of a little challenge. The New England Patriots star learned ballet in a private lesson. However, it wasn’t just any ballerina teaching the famous tight end, it was Nathalia Arja, a principal soloist for the Miami City Ballet.

Arja taught Gronkowski everything to know about being elegant and graceful. “I didn’t expect this video to be such a hit,” she said. “He’s so fun and so funny to work with, and he actually has a lot of potential. His coordination was surprising to me.”
