Obraztsova is always one beat off everyone else, you can tell she really takes her time and thinks about what she's doing. She is incomparable to others.... :)
Does anyone know who the dancer in blue with striped tights is? She is amazingly musical and what placement. Also, thanks to the person who posted segment from Etudes w/Somova - would love to see more.
oh man, the Kirov is offering free classes in Los Angeles in two weeks and I wanted to go but since I'm 23, I'd be lumped with the adult/professional group. I don't consider myself an advanced dancer (can't really do beats), but I wanted to go :( maybe I can sneak in with the teen group- i'm 5'1 :)
here is not the most popular opinion. i rather love the extremely clean and sharp musicality exudes from Tereshkina's entire body. her transition is awesomely smooth.
Obraztsova has such musicality - I love watching her. And personally, I think any extension over 180 degrees is just plain ugly and unnecessary - even 180 degrees is ugly/wrong sometimes.
I find it kind of amusing to read all the bitter critique that goes on with ballet clips of exceptional dancers on UA-cam. Obviously, if the critics were really any good, they would be somewhere other than on the internet complaining about other people's attire, their extensions, turnouts, etc... Why waste energy? This goes for everyone: Get back in the studio yourself, and stop complaining!
You've obviously never seen company class before. Get out more or watch more youtube. Yes, schools like RBS and SAB have strict dresscodes, so do most schools around the world. BUT most ballet companies have no dresscode allowing dancers to wear whatever feels comfortable. That applies to big and samll companies. For instance, Jonathan Cope, (ex-Royal ballet principal) was known for wearing t-shirts that were falling to pieces. Do your research before being so rude.
wtf are you talking about. They are principals and I'm pretty sure you're not even close to their level of dancing. Post some videos of yourself doing centre work with the height of those developpes before you start criticising some of the best ballerinas.
I love Obraztsova's last pirouette, she seems waiting for last seconds of the music to do pirouettes precisely to the music. It's perfect.
I love that even when theyre doing developees on the left its still really really high! And thats probably most of their bad sides!
i love this video, irina golub is so beautiful and elegant i love kirov!
In different part of this class someone wrote that girl in purple is Irina Golub.
KIROV ROCKS!
@Hip2hopgirl she is just over 5'1"!!!

Oh sweet Genia, so musical! And Tereshkina is just fierce!

Thanks for posting!! Did you taped this yourself??
I never knew Obratzsova was so short
Evgenia Obraztsova. She is principal at Bolshoi now.
If I ever can do this (which is probably not the case) I'll fall on my knees and puke my guts out of happiness

Genia is fantastic as always!!😚😚
