Can a pro dancer repeat the exercises of a professional ballerina? Ballet and dance, it would seem, are similar directions, but there are a lot of differences in it! At least the dancers and ballerinas have completely different physical training! This is a challenge video with a real ballerina and a real dancer. Will a professional ballerina be able to perform all the dancer's exercises, and vice versa, will a professional dancer be able to repeat the ballerina's exercises? Watch this video from start to finish because no one expected this!

Pointe shoes and ballet shoes from the wonderful Bloch.
These videos would not have been possible without the great company Nike, whose clothes and sneakers I do all my workouts in.

I feel like ballet is more about long straight lines, calm and control, and contemporary is more about curves, expresión and freedom, and I find it cute to see Maria dance contemporary cause her ballet moves stick out hahaha she always gave straight perfect lines haha
I have a similar feeling. Great video!!!!
yes, doesn't she, she has such grace and control, I have no knowledge of dance and both ladies are remarkably talented-but Marias training, her level of extension, so clean and precise. Great video-thankyou to both ladies!
ballet follows the 'rules' and stays within the limits of classical positions. contemporary kind of 'breaks' the rules and pushes the body outside of those positions.
Not all contemporary is like that I just want to point out. The way you described ballet there would apply to many contemporary techniques eg Cunningham technique and Horton technique. Cunningham is often seen as the contemporary style that similar to ballet. Contemporary can be very much like ballet but also the complete opposite. The Alvin Ailey company might be one you like for example

Maria, wearing different color tights on each leg is a great idea for videos. It helps us to see which leg is in front.
I would like to see the comparison of this style of dances but out of bar where i feel the difference is much more noticeable, after dancing both ballet and contemporary I noticed ballet relies on the little tiniest details to make the difference between coreographies, while contemporary relies on the range of motion of each step.
and even maybe some floorwork could be good cause that´s totally something ballet dancers don´t do
@@laurapalac2443 Yeah, totally
Yeah it would fun to just see her try contemporary and explain the differences
I love when classical ballet is done in ballet clothes, instead of athletic wear. It always looks so much more beautiful this way. The leotard and skirt is lovely.
I like Maria Khoreva's videos, she is a very kind person and she wouldn't make you feel bad in a video.
In other videos in this style, the person who creates the video starts doing really complicated things that he knows the other person won't be able to do and they make fun of it.
That's why I think this channel is really beautiful
she does seem very lovely and yes has far too much class to seek to undermine another professional to herself look good...I have such a fan crush going on and I'm not even a dancer !
This was an excellent idea for a video! She's an incredible dancer. And of course the best contemporary dancers are usually well trained or comfortable in ballet. It's very interesting to see your lines and differences side by side.
Both dancers are professional and beautiful. The main difference between them is the fact that Maria didn’t tired after all this combinations at all. Ballet trainings since childhood make dancers stronger and more endurant than other people. Amazing 😻
no the contemporary dancer is very endurant too, it's just that she allows herself to look human, it's not so much about perfection but perception of the movement, so we rely a lot on breathing, maybe that is why we here her
She’s just younger
I love Xana's combinations! Please, continue this series! 😍
Yes this is beautiful dance sharing.
Maria please take a hip hop class 🙏 it would be so fun to watch
Maria is such a kind and beautiful person and thoughtful of others' feelings.
Now I kind of want to see how classical Chinese dance compares with ballet. They seem similar in many aspects but classical Chinese dance always creates a different effect for me, evoking different emotions and placing emphasis on different things compared to ballet. It's also different from your typical contemporary ballet in that it seems more exquisite, like fine embroidery as opposed to a splatter of paint or whirlwind swirls as one might find in abstract art.
中国古典舞就是20世纪初的时候由有芭蕾和现代舞背景的舞者结合京剧武术和绘画里的形态创造的。
Its in the middle of contemp and chinese like its both and then mixed with chinese culture;))
I love how happy Maria looks doing Xana's combinations, she is genuinely having so much fun and it shows 😄
I’m a yoga teacher and i train very skilled athletes. Videos like this further confirm that working to become skillful in a variety of different mobilities can allow you to become familiar and stronger through other forms of movement. I appreciate studies like this. ❤
Contemporary dance have techniques too, like graham, gaga, cunningham etc.
I would like to see center exercices.
The video is great to see the diference between how the body is used to move in diferents cases. 😙
it was funny seeing you struggle with the hip movements and her with the port de bras, both of you are incredible!!
I love Maria’s Laugh ❤ she’s the cutest 🥹
Can't help but be reminded, and am realizing with this video a lot, the in-between the two styles with my ballet cross-training in rhythmic gymnastics when I was younger~ Would be cool to see Maria speak or do collaborations about the athleticism of ballet with other sports that incorporate artistic expression like rhythmic gymnastics, or other gymnastics disciplines (artistic, acrobatic, aerobic, aesthetic, trampolining, etc), figure skating and ice dancing, synchronized swimming, or even with competitive ballroom??
Maria started rhythmic gymnastics as a child before switching to ballet. Sometimes she refers to it: for example, she has kept this kind of stretching from RG, where you hold your foot with the opposite hand and extend your leg ;)
Absolutely love it.
Thought it would be pretty boring video, however both girls are really trying to perform for each other, not to show off in front of each other!
Was really interesting to watch, thank you.
The ballerina can’t help but be graceful. So mesmerizing!
Please continue this series. It's so fun and interesting to see ballet and contemporary dance moves in different styles at the same time.. :)
Both of you are clearly gifted and talented and have honed that over time. Beautiful:)
Конечно еще!!! Очень круто) Оксана может показать движения в партере, на полу 😊, это будет интересно) балерина опускается на пол исключительно в момент, когда персонаж умирает🫣, больше никогда)))
Maria is so graceful, feminine, professional dancer with good English.
Dear Maria Khoreva, my admiration and devotion to your journey has brought me there! Im so happy of this collabo, it was so spontaneous and open. I never did ballet but Im deeply devoted into my contemporary and modern pratice into the ballet tideness and corrections, and for this I love your contents. Thank you from Italy, def waiting for the next one❤
My brain is gonna explode if I don' t find out if Xana has taken ballet classes in her past.🤯Maybe when she started dancing, before choosing comtempo? If she didn' t, my brain will explode anyways because she is IN CRE DI BLE.😍🙌🏻. I adore her épaulement. You can tell that she is, no matter the style, such a brilliant talented dancer. Since the moment you both did the first feet position, she hasn' t stopped self-repositioning her pelvis again and again every few seconds✨. Beyond impressed. Thank you, Mashula. So happy to see you dancing back🙏🏻. Keep this leg nice and warm😘 С Богом🧛🏻♀️🖤
contemporary is also a form of ballet, so you learn most things, just in a more relaxed manner.
Every time I started to believe that "oh I can do this" the hips and the chest did something my body just cannot comprehend 😂
Thank you for the nice video. It's always refreshing to see Maria dancing.
Please continue, I'm happy.💛
I like how there's even a difference in how they put their hair in a bun lol
Great idea to compare different dance styles, thank you for this one!! Every style has its own beauty and tells different stories, its really so interesting to see how it works by changing the movements and positions. More of that, please!!😍😍
Absolutely love this video! I would love to keep seeing more collaborations like this with different dancers in the future! Keep up the great work :)
Ballet, imo, is the most beautiful dance ever created. Just perfection! 😍
please have more such comparison videos! Via comparison I feel I can appreciate both kinds of dance more😀
Incredibly interesting! Can't wait for more
Прекрасно!
Машенька, так люблю Ваши видео, Вы такая добрая, никогда не заставите человека чувствовать себя неловко в Ваших видео. На других каналах люди обычно делают супер сложные комбинации, и всячески стараются показать, что они лучше)
Маша, это потрясающе!😍
Right. I loved this SO MUCH!
I loved seeing the contemporary! I have never taken a contemporary class before, so expansive and flowing! I really liked it.
Please continue this series. Thank you for share this dear Maria 😊🩷. I can't go to bed with my daily dose Maria Khoreva. Thank you so much. Greetings from Germany
Both dances are so graceful.
Amazing job you guys! ❤️
Omg you guys are so talented, I'm so amazed 💜 ! !
Балерины однозначно вне конкуренции. У них лучшая физическая подготовка и невероятная грация
How wonderful! Beautiful artists showing so much respect - thank u for sharing! Please do more!
Really like this video, I appreciate both types of dance. I love the orange trousers and Maria's long blue leg warmers!😍
This was a fun and new exchange of your training Barre styles. Thank you.
Awesome job.
Maria, you are impressive!
Really interesting video. Thank you!
Incredible video, you two are amaizing!! 🤩Also, i love'd to see someting off de bar, some kind of combination on the floor
Such a blast to watch, love it🤗😍
so interesting! you are both amazing! thanks for this video
This is so interesting! I love Xana too! You two are beautiful together. Please make more of these! 🙏
So much child memories came back, i love it
Great video!
i like the way that we have the same exact warmup in my ballet academy
Excelente clase de barra! Primero elemental. Gracias Chicas! Salen preciosas y muy divertido! Ja! Ja! Muy simpáticas! Me hacen recordar las clases de danzas de niña en el Estudio de Silvia Pujadas. Gracias por todo. Saludos afectuosos desde Buenos Aires.
More please!
Would be fun to do this sort of video with a hip hop dancer! Hehe 🥰💕
Sehr interessant, danke
Both are fun to watch even though I can't do neither. 😛
Wow 😍 that's so great ❤❤❤
Xana turning out made me nervous for her knees bc you could see she wasn't turning out properly from her posture
I can instantly tell Xana has taken ballet (I hope I am not wrong?). She is gorgeous. They are both beautiful dancers in their own right
i think most contemporary dancers HAVE TO take classical ballet training at some point in their life. because contemporary is based off of ballet. ballet works within the positions, contemporary pushes the body beyond the positions and 'breaks the rules' so to speak.
@@SaltySugarPlum correct
Yes, if you train at aco contemporary Conservatoire you will get regular/daily ballet classes. However, the will be done keeping in mind that they are training contemporary dancers and not ballet so things will be adapted to some degree and certain rules like gender roles wong be enforced
Stunning Maria! I'm a big fan of your videos from Argentina🇦🇷🇦🇷
I was wondering wich brand are the shoes you're using in this video????
Love this! So informative and interesting!
Не только движения красивые, но и голос приятный и хорошая речь 🥰
So funny the two different hairstyles🤣🤣🤣
Maria❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😄
Maria,
Would you please put the guest name in the title and list their social media? Thank you!
I’d love to see Maria try hip hop or ballroom
dégagé for you is pas de cheval for me! even ballet in different countries can be so different in our terminology and technique methods.
xana is adorable! the juxtaposition of ballet vs contemporary is very interesting.
💖👑👑💖🎬🎥📽You both are so Talanted Beautiful girls .l enjoyed watching the different moves so much fun.Thank you for showing us all the moves💖😊💖 Well Done Both of You 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼xxxx
супер, очень интересно было смотреть за обеими
What a fun video! But... Who does ronde de jambe en l'aire at 180°??? 😂 Right, we don't need to ask. Lovely!
I am not a dancer, I just do video workouts from ballet dancers. I did everything after the girls on the video (at least, I tried=). It did not take long, but I have got tired so much like after a long workout. Especially Xana's parts turned out to be much more difficult and unsual for my body. That would be so wonderful, girls, if you make a new video with exercises like this!
I want to see Maria try hip hop
Honestly: thew cutest shaming I ever saw. It is not about the persons but the background study, preparation, work differences. Briefly: there is always a way from the classical to contemporary but no chance from the contemporary to classical. But this is same in every arts and points to the importance of the “classical” hard work. As an “old school” photographer I would say: thank you Maria, a great lesson for every artists! ❤
Where can we find a video of Xana dancing?? I would love to see in full action!
A very nice video and both of you are so cute!!!
The contemporary dancers in my daughters class all did super extended splits etc
Omg, Mmmmagnificent❤
Thought the contemporary dancer excelled herself
I wonder to try Xana's workout for beginners) that would be interesting
so interesting..
Strange. I did Modern Ballet years ago (Martha Graham influenced) and we still did the same classical ballet moves at the bar before the floor work.
I’m dancing both style but it’s very hard cuz we have to use different muscles.
Very cool! I'm tired just watching (fingers on feet are toes❤)
Maria❤ your leotard was beautiful :)) May I know your leotard brand? :))
i would love too see some floor work ❤
it's so funny to watch these two incredible dancers copy each other because the pronounced difference in style makes the ballet dancer look too stiff/controlled while copying the contemporary steps and the contemporary dancer looks like she's trying very hard to maintain a more disciplined/intentional movement while copying the ballet steps. Contemporary seems to have a lot more body rolls, it's more sensual and grounded and ballet is highly disciplined and controlled. It's interesting but also just pretty cool that they both seem to catch on to the other's movements so fast.
Ни кто так больше не двигается как балерины. Повторить не возможно.
For those looking, the contemporary dancer is Ksana Kovaleva.
It would have been nice to watch with each dancer's respective class music. I realize this would have been difficult.
Is it just me, or does it feel like Xana is actually really good for a beginner/intermediate in ballet?
that do be me when i try contemporary
Does anyone have the Instagram of the contemporary dancer? I couldn't find it just by the first name. How beautiful, I wanted to see more videos of her dancing
Sorry to ask here but does someone know about this problem : when I'm in the first position, there is a biiiiigg space between my legs, as if I was not stretching enough my legs. Still, I stretch them as much as possible, but I feel like my knees are already at the maximum
Does somebody know if it can be solved? Thank you
You mentioned the book. Which?
It seems that contemporary dance is an extension of modern dance. I studied both ballet and modern from the 1970’s-‘90s but never learned the style she’s doing, tho’ I can see some influences from Limon. Also, Maria, you call some dance steps by different names from what I learned in the US: what you call “degage” I call “pas de cheval“ (to me “degage” is a tendu extended low off the floor), for example.
Interesting! My understanding (as a ballet student and a native French speaker) is that "dégagé" is a relatively 'generic' term referring to the extension of a leg + foot: By default, "dégagé" is thus a synonym for "battement jeté" (which itself is short for "battement tendu jeté"), which is exactly what you're describing (hence, by the way, the logic "battement tendu" -- or "tendu" for short -- extending to "battement tendu jeté"). My ballet teacher being Russian / Vaganova, she would always say "battement jeté" and never "dégagé" (I discovered the term "dégagé" listening to French and Italian teachers). Now, when Maria executes a "pas de cheval" at 6:54, maybe it breaks down into "pas de cheval = cou-de-pied (which Maria simply skips describing) followed by a dégagé" (which is the leg extension anyway, even if in this case you don't lift your toes off the floor, since you're not coming from the tendu brushing...). Does that make sense?
@@mariannec.3939 I don't know if I feel really able to make a sense of it, but is it like "arretez", when both the outturning leg and the standing leg (holding leg) muscle are shifted, whether to hence it up from floor or to get the inside turn which appears in tendu rather from the upper leg, in pas des cheval rather from the lower leg under knee? I'm sorry I might be a bit confused to ask this, but I love to ask!
@@mariannestoffers5067 I'm sorry, I don't know "arrêtez" as a ballet step or jump or position... and I can't find it in any ballet glossary! In (plain) French, "arrêtez" means "stop" (at the imperative).
@@mariannec.3939 Thank you so much, Marianne, for your soon given out answer, it's good you are there to improve on my French a little bit and I hope to get more from you of these explanation! There's always terms when we're difficult about and it's always good to hear something new, and share it together.
Pps how do you end on a degagé - second position - forward position - fourth position - or fifth position. And what on Earth is the "Retiréez"?
@@mariannestoffers5067 you're most welcome! I would recommend Wikipedia's "Glossary of ballet" (even though I don't agree with their translation of "dégagé" by "disengaged" -- "disengaged" would be "désengagé" -- "dégagé" means "open / cleared out / uncluttered"). If you mean dégagé as a synonym of (as the Cecchetti version of) battement tendu jeté, then you end it in the position you started it (first, third, or fifth). If you mean 'generic' dégagé, then it 'ends' open (to the front, à la seconde, or to the back), in the sense that, precisely, it is the initiating (opening) part of jumps such as assemblé or glissade.
i want the contemporary dancer to be my teacher she is so goood!!😯
