In this video I will be reacting to my old ballet videos! How did I perform on stage before, how confident was I in front of the audience? Yes, I am incredibly embarrassed to watch these videos now, because then I was completely different and inexperienced! Being a ballerina is quite difficult, and everyone started somewhere. And I am no exception. And today I will watch my old videos when I just started to be a ballerina! If you want to know how my journey as a real ballerina began, then watch this video from start to finish!

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.

well, if that's "inexperienced" and "cringe" then clearly we're operating on two different scales 😂. BTW, you look divine in this blouse, old Hollywood glamour
Same here😂😂😂
Right💀😂😭
I love this blue costume because expose your beautiful body line , just perfect for Ballet. You could only walk across a stage and that will be performance.
Russian ballet is just on a different level altogether. We just have to love it and draw inspiration, and go on doing our thing at our earthbound level. 😅
exactly! If she wasn't pointing all the flaws out.... I'd think she was pretty much perfect haha.
Who can dance like her at the age of 12?
Actually she was already a rising star of ballet world⭐️
I could🤣😂🤣😂
@@user-dp8is4vt8i Haha, you speak for yourself!
ya but it’s vaganova, what do you expect
@@sheeniebeanie2597 hahaha, who cares
@@user-dp8is4vt8i if your so ‘good’ you don’t gotta be so rude. Plus, if your so ‘good’ then why don’t you post a video on your channel of you going ballet
Maria over here like "Ugh, I didn't have the grace to attack that piece with the gentle softness of an expert at 10 years old, how embarrassing!"
With all of the hours and years that you spent working on your dance, how in the world did you find the time to become such an amazing pianist as well?
I know right, talented all the way. I believe they have to play an instrument (or maybe even piano) as part of the curriculum at Vaganova. And she needs musicality and precise coordination for both, so I can see how that goes...
@billie. ramone Although I'm an American, I believe you are correct. I think that the educational programs for ballet students in Russia are better and broader than American ballet training programs.
I saw in some video about Maria that she has on her channel, that she’s a bit of a piano virtuoso
@billie. ramone Makes sense. Learning to play an instrument when you're a dancer helps you with your timing.
Most schools in strict big academy require to take piano or violin so you can get in touch with music
Jeez, girl, it is normal to dance not as an adult professional person being just a kid. this is not cringe, this is great.
everyone is harsh on themselves
Let her live
I doubt she really thinks it’s cringe, if she did she wouldn’t show it to anyone.
I grew up dancing ballet, from 6 to 17, was a soloist in a small company (until I had to retire bc of a hip injury that I'm still dealing with at age 38,getting a total replacement in a few years). Anyway, I only THOUGHT I was good and here you are at 13, dancing like a literal angel. None of this is cringe, you are far too hard on yourself. You have been so blessed with your talents and work ethic. Stunning!
I'm terribly sorry for your injury, ballet is a horrible thing
@@user-ut4vi7wb4h that's sweet of you, thanks! Ballet didn't actually cause the injury - it was a congenital condition - but it certainly didn't help any because if I hadn't spent most of my life trying to open my hips and increase turn out, I wouldn't have ever known. It is what it is.
I used to play piano professionally and i just love watching ballet here and there, did not expect to be treated to such a smooth and wonderful rendition of a chipun classic here! For 12 thats incredible and you should feel very proud of yourself!
That blue dress in the little snipit was gorgeous. I want one. haha
I think you are too hard on yourself. I honestly enjoy watching the progress of dancers, from early years to where they are currently. I see so much improvement. A testament to your Coaches and your hard work.
As a pianist I have to say she is really good for an amateur (if you can call her like that)! This is not an easy piece. You need at least 5 years of intensive (!) training to try it.
Вот это уровень фортепиано!!!!! Просто супер! Ничего себе! Мария, Вы сама понимаете, что Вы за уникальная личность, какая степень одаренности и способности к концентрации, и и интеллекта! Ваши родители счастливые люди!
I'm not a dancer but a musician and I used to play piano for a long time. I loved seeing you play, you are so musical and played so beautifully ❤
Wow your piano playing is so beautiful! I love that Chopin and you play it well! How can someone have so much talent (not discounting your obvious hard work) in multiple areas... truly amazing.. brava :)
Is it possible to do a video with your mother? I would love to hear her interviewed and how she raised you and your sister and what she wanted for yall. She gave her daughters so much beauty. She had to have done something very, very right!
Your piano playing was incredible for your age!!
Да, Маша, удивили Вы меня снова после вашего английского: прекрасная игра на фортепиано. Учитывая Ваше владение UA-cam technology, успехи в отнюдь не простой профессии, не могу не восхищаться и не задаться вопросом: как родителям удалось воспитать такую дочь! Большое им спасибо, а Вам - удачи и вдохновения.
I love that you say "flatter" with a perfect American accent at 8:22 and then quickly correct yourself like it was a horrible mistake 😂 Lovely video!
As a Brit 👏🏼! 😂
I love this video concept, if you have more of these old videos I'd love if you made a part two. I actually love that imperfect 5th position because it just shows that while you can be talented it still takes a lot of practice and hard work to perfect it.
Also: you looked so much like your sister as a child 😄
P.s Now I am expecting a Masha plays the piano 2023 edition after seeing that video.
I comment on this comment before I blew up ❤❤🎉🎉😮😅😅
Молодец Машенька, умница, красавица, Мечтаю попасть на ваше выступление
Wow! You play and dance so beautifully . Your passion for the music, soft, aggressive, sad, gently laughing in the dance, and the joy and ache of your dance transforming the music, it sends chills up and down my spine. I am overcome seeing the irresistible expression of your spirit, your amazing girl’s heart- the astonishment of feeling the blaze of sunshine in a fresh blossom, the tiger in a kitten. Bravo ! bravo! A half an hour watching you perform and all the harshness in this modern world vanishes for me. Yes, please give us more!
Beautiful Maria, we hope you realize how talented and multifaceted you are. Be healthy and persistent. Don't stop daring.💞
I have the mariinsky nutcracker in dvd it was a gift from my dad in christmass when i was little, and that dvd was the reason why i started ballet, i remember seeing the kids in mirlintons and thinking i want to be as great as them.
I could watch you dance all day long, but also - wow! The piano playing is exquisite. You are a passionate artistic soul and it's amazing to watch you express yourself through ballet and music.
Машенька, ты- чудо! Я потрясена уровнем твоей игры на фортепиано.
Masha, you're playing Chopin!... You're such a complete artist!... Bravaaaaaaaaaaa💐💐💐
You are very talented. You should stop being so embarrassed and pointing out your mistakes...most of us would have loved to even have a milli-fraction of your talents and opportunities that were opened for you to do these things ;) Thank you for sharing with us. My daughter is 13 and just starting dance (we can only afford two dance classes per week) but she wants to dance Russian classical ballet so badly. I showed her one of your classes that you posted. Though much too advanced for her, I said that she could practice in the privacy of her room and that she could be just as talented as you. Thank you again!
There are some great gym exercises she has posted on here 😊
Lying here with cancer you are so blessed to be able to live and love what you do and to have such support to live your dream being a mixed heritages individual with 1 emigration parents now departed at 40 its to late to live my dream but watching you is inspiring I know its not all smiles and roses but the end result is beautiful and your breaking alot of the stigmas around ballet.💛🇬🇧
Sorry to hear you are going through this.i wish you well.i also wanted to dance but i was one of four girls and only the eldest one got to go to lesson's. I used to go and watch the classes and wouls sit there tapping my feet.im 76 now and it still fills me with sadness that i couldent do it.but i love to watch any sort of dance but especialy Ballet.take care.🌹🌹
❤️💜❤️
I see zero cringe! this was adorable and honestly... shocking to me! lolol at 14 i was getting in trouble for smoking week behind the bleachers at school and Maria was a full on STAR!! She looked dedicated, committed and a little nervous but she still looked like she was loving it. Just wow! i loved it and YES WE WANT TO HEAR ALL THE STORIES! What was it like in school? was this a school for ballet where you learned your other material too? or did you go to another school for things like math and reading ect. Im SO interested in your schooling experience, did you like it or hate it at that time?
I mean I’m not her but as for how her schooling worked… She went to Vaganova, which is a ballet academy in St. Petersburg, so it’s focus is on ballet. However it is also a regular school, meaning they have to take and pass all the required regular subjects (math, literature etc)… but ballet is the focus and the rest of the school day is built around it. It is basically middle + high school (6-12th grades, but 6th=1st grade). There are dorms if you’re from far away, but Maria is from St Petersburg so she lived at home. Hope this helped a bit. There are also plenty of videos on UA-cam about what a day is like at Vaganova. I believe even Maria has one.
Edit: just wanted to add this. Even just to get into Vaganova is extremely competitive. There are auditions and they accept based on potential determined by body type (flexibility, turnout, etc)… only 20-60% (depending on the year) of students actually graduate. A lot are expelled if they don’t progress.
Aww, I loved seeing little Masha dance! I go to a small dance school in the USA and this year I was asked by the Artistic Director to do a Pas de Deux for YAGP with one of my classmates who is graduating this year. I have only done partnering a few times and was inspiring to see that you also performed pas de deux with little experience in that area as well!
She even makes watching videos graceful 😭
wow what a talented woman here is!! She played piano so good!
I found another her talent 😘😘
И танцует, и на пианино играет, отличный английский =) Сплошные таланты
Это не таланты, это пахота, пахота, пахота. 🙂
@@dicer250 талант от Бога, чудесные природные данные, прекрасный подъем! Классов выпускных достаточно, но солистами становятся не все, даже усиленно прилагая труд свой
@@dicer250 каторга в цветах(с)))
Dance, Piano and Beautiful ! 👌
@@dicer250most likely both. talent & hard work.
Pomnyu eto god v pirvom video kak eto bilo tolko vchera! I remember these performances so vividly and watching you in the rehearsals in zal sidmogo verh**
You already had a presence, Masha dorogaya!
And hugs to Pasha M.☺
I expected the beautiful dancing, but not the beautiful piano playing. That is not an easy piece! You can tell she is really feeling the music too.
Yes, more of this please! This was incredible! I have two favorite pieces.. 1. The dance from the Fairy Doll-- your technique shows so beautifully and the dress is absolutely gorgeous, and 2. The duet set to Chaconne.. such a perfect role for you in terms of artistry & movement and I adore the emotionality in the music. You have always been so talented, and it's insane to see how drastically you improved each year! Your piano solo was absolutely mind blowing, by the way. We are living for this content, Masha.. "Passe game strong!!" hahah
She in age 12 playing Chopin so easly. I in age 12 trying to play properly the easiest piano peaces. As you said there should be more dynamic but still Chopin is quiet hard to play! Even now! Girl, you just have a gift!
Вау, Мария, как вы владеете фортепиано!!!!! Браво! 👏👏👏
Восхищению нет предела!!! Браво, Маша!!!👏👏👏👏
Мария как будто пришла к нам из мира фей. Танцует божественно, играет на пианино, изъясняется на английском. И всё это так органично, не верится, что она из нашего мира.
Maria!!! Who knew you were so good at Classical Piano as well as dance??? I'm all the more star-struck!
Such lovely work. thank you for sharing!
I saw many of your content on Instagram and I was always impressed ! I had no idea you were so fluent in English :)
Love from France !
Its normal to cringe at your past self, but jesus.. you were so good, even as a kid
Thank you for sharing journey through your ballet career and the treat of your piano concert. Truly, you are a truly rounded artist!
I love your comments and how you point things out that my untrained eyes would not pick out!
Please, I would love to have more videos such as this!
👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 ❤
I have followed your career ever since I saw you in Instagram many years ago. I have always admired your perfect timing with the music. Thank you so much for sharing your videos with us. Continue shining so bright. We will always be walking beside you and cheering from wherever we are.
My favorite ballet is the Nutcracker. We watched it on TV every year and I got to see it live once.
Как она прекрасна! Просто прелесть! А в танце вообще бесподобна! Талант мирового значения!
Отличные физические данные от природы
The age 15 fairy doll has much much improved facial expression! That shows what is gained with age, training, and confidence
Thanks, Maria, for sharing those old videos. You were super cute, and it's a joy to see your talent developing. And as for the piano piece - ok, it was a bit rushed, but what flow you had in it! I never was able to get that far with my piano lessons (10 years of them). No cringing needed. It was all heartwarming!
You are so amazing and inspiring, what a great role model! I‘m not a ballet dancer, but love doing your workouts💪🥵 and my daughter actually is captured by watching your dance😊 Thank you so much for making the world so much brighter and thank you for giving us insights to your journey and hard work!
I already knew you are an amazing dancer. But now I know you're also an amazing piano player too! You are a true inspiration my dear! 👋♥
Свободное владение английским ,сыграла одно из сложнейших произведений Шопена и конечно же классная балерина,браво!!!❤❤❤
Your movements are so precise, and beautiful and fluid also! Just beautiful! I particularly love your Fairy Doll variation I saw on You Tube. Your technique is BEAUTIFUL, and your acting/pantomime is so appropriate for the character. Lovely! 💜
That was absolutely precious! Thank you for sharing!♥️
Hello Maria,
How lovely it is to see your evolution, little by little, like a bird who learns to fly, high, with elegance, so gorgeous,... you are born to be an artist! But how many years, swet, exercises, efforts it asks!
Thank you so much for sharing. It is always a pleasure to look at your videos 😊
Kind regards 😊💗
So interesting. I look forward to hearing what you have to share post masters. First you danced it, then you learned about what you were instructed to dance. You articulate so well that even an elderly non-dancer such as I can appreciate your descriptions.
Wonderful to see and hear, a beautiful person and exquisite dancer. Thank you. What a lovely place the world would be with more people like her in it!
If I didn't see the ballet which was awesome I would have thought you were a concert pianist. Absolutely amazing!!!
All I can say is "Wow" thats incredible Maria!! Such a gifted human!! Loved watching this footage of you performing Fantasy Impromptu (as I'm a piano player too - and your certainly no novice at playing piano thats for sure!) But its obvious that you were destined for the stage from a young age just looking at those clips! Thankyou for posting - enjoyed them very much!! 🥰
I’ve always thought you would have also been a killer figure skater, and that blue dress you said you loved in the last ballet video you showed to the Handel piece is iconic figure skating dress material. Especially for the dance category of figure skating with the longer skirt line. So in a way this made that idea complete, it’s like I got to see a glimpse of you as a pro figure skater in an alternate timeline. Amazing!! 😊
so interesting to watch your reaction! we need a part 2!!
So impressed with your accomplishments at this stage in your life. Being computer/internet savvy will expose you to a much wider global audience. I love the shorter hair style and language skills are constantly improving. Ballet is fabulous & all, so exploit it now for all it's worth, your dancing career will be over before you know it. You are a cross media sensation in the making and so much more than a ballet dancer.
How beautiful. It brought back so many memories. I loved watching your progression through dance and playing Chopin. Thank you so much. Xxx
It's so amazing that you could perform all that partnering without previous training!!! I definitely see what you mean about Grishko not working on your feet and it's so nice to see you change into better shoes. It was so interesting and fun to hear you talk about dancing at Vaganova and seeing you dance at such a young age!
We are our own worst critics. Growing a talent is a journey. I love ballet but don’t get to see it much. I think you’re amazing!
Loved hearing your interpretation of your growth as a dancer in school. It was so cute to see your reaction as well when you watched yourself. Yes, would love to see more!
Ballet is underrated! I see men get bullied for dancing ballet which is frustrating because it’s demanding and requires strength etc not just anyone can do it. I took a few classes when I was young and miss it!
This video was so beautiful, please do these kind of videos more👏❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏 and you are very hard on yourself watching the baby khoreva, I think you were doing so good always…. Loved it!! And I learned a lot watching you correcting yourself🙌❤️I enjoyed a lot, thanks❤️💐
The most beautiful sound I ever heard...Maria, Maria, Maria. Thank you for sharing parts of your lovely life with us. Tonight, you have enhanced my life and made me so happy.
She is so lovely and so modest about her unbelievable talent.
thanks for sharing Maria! I know nothing about ballet or dance technique, but I still find it interesting for you to review your childhood performances :)
Fantastic dancing and piano work, thank you for making this video.
I love how kind she is to herself!
It was so emotional seeing how your growth was.... thanks fir sharing also your thought watching those videos
fantaisie impromptu!! you played that so wonderfully
Of course! We want to hear all your stories! It’s so interesting and fun to hear about!
You are stunningly talented as a ballerina as well as piano player, and yet so nice and humble, and generous sharing your talent and your skills as trainer!! Super cool ballerina, I think actually you are the best 🔝
Wow! I can’t believe you were able to be so accomplished as a pianist along with dance. I had to drop piano to concentrate on ballet. I’m amazed at your lovely videos from your youth. I wish I had some from my young days.
Well Vaganova does require piano as a class… but obviously she took lessons before she started Vaganova as she described. But yea. Super talented.
Think you did amazing in that first clip from the Nutcracker! You were so young at the time and hadn’t danced for nearly as long as you have now. Your body and your dancing was still very much developing when you were just 12 years old! You did things at that age that a majority of adults wouldn’t be able to do
You are so beautiful and talented! Please show us more! I loved every single second. I say to you: be so proud of each stage of your journey and enjoy yourself! It's so much fun that you have so much to look back at and see your growth. Regret not a single bobble or misaligned toe. Smile kindly at the younger you for she is what gave you your foundation. You will always have a 'younger' you. A 'younger' you that holds you up as you grow. Each stage is precious, as precious as you are today. I look forward to seeing more.
@Maria - your Chaconne was sublime! One illuminating moment in a serious of other very good performances 👍
I did ballet as a little girl. I wanted to be a ballerina so badly. I did ballet from 3 to 7 years of age and then I quit on my own. My parents were divorced and I had to miss so many lessons because of visitation with my father I just couldn’t keep up with the other dancers and I gave up on myself. I so regret that now. Now I’m in nursing and want to be a doctor the idea I wanted to be a ballerina is very comical to me. Though I still respect the dance. It’s the only dance I really am fascinated by I actually hate musicals and don’t like dancing so it’s very ironic I wanted to be a ballerina as a kid. But even with how impartial I am to most dancing I still find ballet to be beautiful.
I TOTALLY feel you... I began dancing around 6 years old and I sucked for a long time (I was pigeon toed and flat footed- so the docs told my mom to put me into ballet to help my muscles in these areas - it worked, but I still was pretty low in my class. It tool an injury, a lot Pilates and a new perspective to make great improvements in about a year and a half. I didn't end up going professional... I was very close.. but life had other things in store for me 😊
But I wanted to mention, that whole I loved dancing ballet I LOATHED other types...especially contemporary like people dancing 😂 Over time I finally got better at jazz and modern dance, but man, I really had to put on an "act" to "dance" without set choreography!
Good luck in your journey to become a doctor! ❤ Be sure to look into nutrition as I understand that's not addressed in the schools much. God bless!
I like listening to ballet dancers: they speak slowly, rhythmically and express their thoughts absolutely clearly.
How are you cringing over the piano? It’s INCREDIBLE!
Wow, all your performances here are so beautiful to watch. So thrilled especially to see an excerpt of the wonderful pas de deux to the gorgeous music of Handel’s Chaconne. Would dearly love to see the full performance of that piece if it is available.🌹🌹🌹
Maria, you are just amazing! So talented!
SHE SLAYS PLAYING THE PIANO TOO???????????? we love a multi-talented qween
You are both disciplined and so very talented!! What a gift!
Yes I would love to see more stories! OMG I WAS REQUESTING THIS VID BY THE WAY! Please show even younger baby masha vids and photos you were seriously SO CUTE!! INCREDIBLE!
Loved this! Amazing to see! Thank you. 😀💕
Between your mastery of dance and the piano, I don't know how you have time for anything else😋 The piano playing wasn't cringe at all; it was incredible!
Hi Maria! I was wondering if you could do a video on how you found you perfect pointe shoe? I know you did a video on how you prepare your pointe shoes, but I think it would be interesting to hear more in detail your journey to finding your best pair of shoes!
such a good video!! i had seen all of the young masha beautiful dance performances, but the piano?? omg im so impressed!
Is there anything you can't do?! You're so so talented, I aspire to be like you
Loved this! Would love to see more of these nostalgic commentaries 🙏
absolutely adorable and very uncringe throughout. Loved the piano too and for someone who can’t play a single thing from memory, not kidding, it was astounding! Loved your commentary & recollections, being ill, pirouettes difficult in the pink costume, love of the blue floaty costume (although to me it looked not dissimilar to me to a practice leotard. Really lovely to watch, all of it. Ps you are critical of yourself (plus amused) but so beautifully complimentary about everyone else! 🥰
Amazing!! It was a pleasure to watch these talented "little" dancers.
Aside from your gorgeous blouse, your earrings are also beautiful. Thank you.
❤💖❤💖
Wow, amazing, I'm in awe of people who have such talents, and you are really talented.
Such a talent...the ballet, the music, the humility. Keep on this parh. ❤
Вау! Я в шоке, что наткнулась на это видео! У меня была запись именно этого "Щелкунчика" на диске в хорошем качестве, и мы с сестрой засматривали его до дыр, буквально каждое движение знали.... Круто увидеть кого-то оттуда сейчас, особенно в формате реакций) Удачи!))))
Am loving ‘to the gills’! ❤
