From the birds singing every morning to rain hitting the pavement there is music everywhere. Ballet 🩰 has been a favorite of mine since my first play in elementary. Opera, symphonies, drill teams, battle of the bands, jazz, country, hip hop, R&B, classical, brass, string, piano 🎹, poetry, cultural/native dance, and nature/God’s music 🎶....I love it all 🥰

      It’s not a victim card when people need advocates… I read something from the Royal ballet director that said he wasn’t willing to break up a line of white in Swan lake… It’s really ridiculous and ballet needs more beautiful dancers if color regardless if the current dancers don’t say anything… Ballets also need to be more culturally sensitive in general and the San Francisco ballet’s Nutcracker proves this can be seamless… so happy for all these beautiful people adding to the beauty of ballet… ❤

      Well everyone has the right to evaluate anyone’s technique. As someone who was a professional dancer and teacher...and an American not Cuban which shouldn’t mean anything? she is simply not ready for this rank as principal. It is a technical thing. Not a personal thing. I do however think it’s sad that people of color are so rarely given their due reward for hard work in the ballet world...then Misty gets this rank clearly for other reasons besides her technique. There’s a real lack of inclusion for those who can truly handle something like a principal rank.

Но такую попробуй тронь, вой будет на весь континент. Она даже Большой театр умудрилась в расизме обвинить и с ее подачи в сети затравили русских балерин, которые танцевали в Баядерке. Постановке, которая и до Мисти шла, и после нее будет, когда о ней самой забудут сто раз.
