Derek is about 16 now. He is stunning to watch dance in person and very humble. He has perfected his craft over the years but was alway naturally talented. My 17 year old daughter loves him! And I love his parents . . . good people.
Funny that you say that, he's actually already quite a bit of a star, his name is Derek Dunn and he's with the Houston Ballet. He's probably one of the best young dancers you'll ever see!
hondo mullerD what happen to the tall one he seem to have the size. and masculine style. good height on his jump as well? bit more power. and he could work in some of the new style modern ballets.
MALE DANCERS ARE STRONG ATHLETES IN SPORTS; KARATE, BASKETBALL, BASEBALL, NFL FOOTBALL, BOXING, WRESTLING AND MORE. A MALE DANCER CAN DODGE OR BLOCK PUNCHES, KICKS IN MARTIAL ARTS/BOXING. HE IS ABLE TO EVADE FOOTBALL TACKLES BY RUNNING VERY FAST OR JUMPING OVER A FOOTBALL PLAYERS AND SCORING A TOUCH DOWN. MALE DANCERS ARE FAST RUNNERS IN TRACK. THEY ARE ABLE TO LEAP OVER HURDLES AND FENCES WITHOUT INJURY. IN BASKETBALL A MALE DANCER IS ABLE TO JUMP HIGHER TO BLOCK BASKETBALL SHOT. WITH GREAT FLEXIBILITY A MALE DANCER CAN ESCAPE OUT OF HANDCUFFS, ROPES OR PHYSICAL HOLDS IN MARTIAL ARTS/WRESTLING. WITH DEXTERITY A MALE DANCER CAN TIGHT ROPE OR PERFORM PARKOUR/OBSTACLE COURSE WITH GREAT AGILITY. WITH STRONGER ARMS A MALE DANCER IS ABLE TO SPEED THROW A BALL 75MPH OR FASTER ON A BASEBALL FIELD/FOOTBALL FIELD. HE CAN LIFT A WOMAN ABOVE HIS HEAD WITHOUT STRAINING HIMSELF. WITH FULL SPEED A MALE DANCER CAN LEAP ON ROOFS BY ESCAPING CAPTIVITY. WITH TRAINING/PRACTICE A MALE DANCER CAN PERFORM ANY DANCE; HIP HOP, LATIN, DISCO, BREAK DANCE, THE ROBOT AND MORE. IF YOU ARE BEING BULLIED MALE DANCERS OUGHT TO STICK TOGETHER, SPEAK UP FOR ONE ANOTHER LIKE A FAMILY OR ENCOURAGE ONE ANOTHER. COOL VIDEO! THANKS FOR SHARING!
turn out is "amazing"... all forced though and making sickles especially devant and also lifting their hips not keeping level hip placement. Forced turn out is shown in the allegro with parallel beats. There Grande Jete deviant leg looks like the battement it too high so makes their body go weird... though nice dancing and they are pretty good :)
The boy in the front is Derek Dunn... He received several gold medal in Youth American Grand Prix :)
the boy in the front has a young Baryshnikov look. also his legs appear very powerful. he'll have a leading role somewhere someday.
John Lamphier He is derek dunn and now He is solist with huston ballet

Derek is amazing. He's gonna be huge.
There is an outstanding winner. Just moves so natural.

Grand jeté en tournant or entrelacé

@dance2felina probably because they're hyperextended.
