- Since we’re all stuck in our houses right now (well hopefully, you’re being a responsible citizen like most of us), I decided to make a little something for you guys to pass the time at home. I hope all these wonderful dancers demonstrating the beauty of the art of performance will be a good cheer up for you!

At first I thought it was a rat.

I have seen dancers slip and fall, ballerinas get dropped or throw themselves out of their partners’ hands. It is a physical activity and stuff happened even to the best of them. One of the sweetest things I ever saw happened because of a near disaster on stage to Lesley Collier of the Royal Ballet and Rudolf Nureyev. In act 3 of Fille mal guardee, there is a “bum lift” when the boy lifts the girl way up over his head seated on one of his hands. One can only imagine how precise that has to be, perfect placement of both dancers, the strength of the boy to raise her up fast enough and straight enough, how steady she has to hold herself up there! Well, something went wrong and Miss Collier came tumbling down. Nureyev realized and reacted and (thank God) caught her in a tangle in his arms before she hit the floor, but there was no way to save it. He held her safe while she untangled herself and they went on, but the expression on his face was devastated. You could tell that he held himself responsible for whatever happened. Even during the curtain calls, the way he looked at her was so touching, so sorrow filled. So when she went forward for her first call and several little bouquets of violets and baby’s breath lit on stage, she picked one up and, like a little child, carried it back, giving it to him. I never saw him do again what he did next. He took her face into his hands and gave her the gentlest, most chaste kiss imaginable. I felt SO privileged to be a witness to that absolutely pure moment of compassion and gratitude that I will always treasure it beyond the otherwise wonderful performance!
You are so lucky to have witnessed that!
That's adorable
😍 Is there any video? Could you send me the link?
Aww thts so sweet
This is super cute and adorable!! Thank you for sharing!!!
0:53 cat is me running away from any kind of responsibility
Banana Child Lmao same
The cat is me runing away from the deep tik tok because it's scary and creeps me out(sorry deep tik tok fans)
You callin me a cat?
Sunny Yes
Twins? Lol 😂
I don't blame any of them for making mistakes when they do moves like *that* 1:57 how do you even hold your leg in that position and spin around with speed? I'll never get over the sheer talent dancers have and how hard they work to bring that talent out
Dancing is a dog's life
Doing an arabesc turn or an alesecon turn are always so hard to turn but after you get it they are pretty easy after all the practice
Practice, lots of practice. It becomes muscle memory after a while and you don’t even really think about all the intricate parts of a step until you do something wrong.
Roblox Pro5000 *arabesque, *a la seconde
It's hard to do I can only do 2 it's all about the timing 32 spins on one leg
They can fall right into the orchestra pit and still do a better job at dancing than I ever could.
Yeah but you wernt paying to practice everyday for 12 years to just perform and fail! They should all be ashamed of themselves!
@@californiadoll6273 shit happens to everyone regardless.
@@californiadoll6273 i mean gravity sometimes just says no man
i would still clap haha
@@californiadoll6273 the only one who ought to be ashamed is you dear
As a ballerina, I can relate to this, as I once made a big mistake during a performance, but I do know that everyone has done this at LEAST one time, and there is no shame in it
I fell off the stage a few years ago. wWouldnt recommend
I've loved ballet all my life, but never realized how physical it was until I was standing in the wings, waiting for my jazz dance routine, and saw the ballerinas on pointe at eye level! It's harrowing to see it up close. One dancer did slip but recover. I thought, "Man, if the world was fair ballet would be in the Olympics."
Exactly! Ballet is an actual sport. Ballerinas are athletes. Ballet is honestly in my opinion one of the hardest sports in the world. Just because it looks graceful and pretty doesnt mean its not difficult. If anything it makes it more challenging because you have to use an exorbitant amount of muscles and body strength while at the same time making it look effortless and graceful. #BRINGBALLETTOTHEOLYMPICS
@@francesatea5796 I agree with you that it takes as much athleticism, training, dedication, etc. as any other sport. But it also takes something else. Look at what's happened to figure skating--it's become a jumping competition, and the artistry has been degraded. The artistry involved in dance can't be quantified.
While watching the clip
Me: Where's the mistake?
*The video slow-moed to show the mistake
Me:......so, where's the mistake?
Countrycowboy08 wait u couldn’t see?!?? On wait your don’t do ballet nvm 😂
@@simpery253 .....I think that's *exactly* what the point of my comment... Oh wait, can't comprehend? You don't have a mind 😂
Countrycowboy08
Why are you so mean? The comment above you didn’t tried being rude.
@@omao4938 "Oh wait you don't do ballet nvm 😂" is like the rudest, most condescending phrase that I've read. Haha
Countrycowboy08 wait how is it rude like seriously is my dream to not do it my feet hurts like hell
Vasiliev is the master of recovering from mistakes with smooth maneuvers 😂👏
his little tongue is the cutest!
yes but he made so many
@@jaya.ballet2656 Anyone with a career as long and successful as Vasiliev is bound to make multiple mistakes. His ability to recover so gallantly is admirable. None of his mistakes change the fact that he is one of the greatest male dancers of his generation!
Prayers for all the dancers and other fine artists out there who find their livelihoods in jeopardy due to performance and gathering bans across the globe. I cannot wait to see you all dance again! 💖
Everyone makes mistakes and that’s OK.
I love seeing professionals make mistakes. It makes me feel less bad about mine because we are all human and no matter how much you practice things can still go wrong. It just happens. Much love to all those beautiful dancers.
The cat tho 😅
0:35 idk why I said double pirouettes lmao. I meant to say double fouettes but I was tired.
- Angela writing to you with washed hands
Angela Chen omg I got confused I thought I remembered wrong lol u just confused your local ballet Dancer 😂
Yeah I was gonna say that that double pirouettes are easy. Double fouettes on the other hand are not easy though several fouettes into a double pirouette is pretty easy.

This is a great video. My daughter practices ballet, and she gets so flustered when she makes a mistake that it becomes glaringly obvious. It’s not that professionals never make mistakes; it’s that they keep dancing in such a way as to make it hard to catch. This is very encouraging to my little dancer. Thank you for sharing!
I feel like part of being a dancer is learning how to continue from your mistakes so the audience doesn't even know it happened
I was a ballroom dancer - a large part of our training for a competition was how to recover from interruptions (another dancer getting in your path), being "bumped", performing a figure that "did not pan out" the way it should, getting distracted, music skipping (or worse, missing a beat) ... recovery and "smiling" was essential - the audience may not notice but judges would ... usually! Great video - it happens! Ciao, L
If the girl at 3:39 hadn’t immediately corrected herself, I don’t think anyone would have noticed. She could have just used the next time the corps moved to fix herself!
agreed
Some of these mistakes, you don't even notice at first glance, because everything else is just so beautiful and breathtaking.
The cat... He was probably playing hide and seek with other cats and when he saw one he was like:
"BILLY I SEE YOU!!!!"
*enter that one naruto soundtrack*
Ha lol or he just hates dace
Sorry I mean dance
I can’t stop laughing bc the cat running across the stage😂😂😂
My wife's ballet teacher claims that "ballet" is French for "hard."
She has a great sense of humour !
My daughter danced for years. I cry when I see mistakes because I know how much work goes on to make these performances prefect. But indeed, dancers overcome terror mistakes with the utmost poise and grace 💞
Tracey Roberts finally a adult that understands 😂
Awwww Sveta being human from time to time 😊
Thank you for bringing to light how difficult it is to be perfect in ballet. As a dancer myself it is not easy to do the dance without making the small mistakes but it can be even more difficult to come back from such mistakes.
I love this video! it’s an excellent reminder of the sheer difficulty of ballet dancing and the amount of effort an entire team dedicate to make things look effortless. Knowing this makes me appreciate the art form even more!
I love how you have nothing but respect for the hard job of these ballerinas and don’t at all shame them for their mistakes, in fact, you compliment them. It’s so refreshing to see someone who realizes mistakes are common and doesn’t get on people’s backs for them.
I just cannot get over that cat XD a black cat during a Black Swan's performance...brilliant! XD
poor cat he’s probably like “why is there so many feet :(“
0:25 WOW that looked even better than the original chorio probably was 😂👏👏👏👍
Svetlana Zakharova herself fell during a recorded performance of Giselle (I can't remember whether with Bolle or Polunin), and she is still, to me, the absolute queen and fairy of dancing. And yes, she both fell and got up with such grace that you could almost think it was part of the choreography.
with Bolle
yes i watched this recording and heard a thud but i had no idea she even fell until after
Thank you for being so nice to the dancers. You have a kind soul.😊
This is encouraging - to see that even great artists make mistakes, and that part of artistry is clever, creative recovery - thanks so much!
It honestly just shows how skilled they are to catch it so perfectly and keep going. It shows real skill if you can effortlessly move on even with a misstep or a fall or other mistakes. I have so much respect for these dancers!
Their mistakes are like my best tries ever.
Ballerinas are so graceful and seamless. I could be watching them perform right in front me and not notice any of the mistakes bcs they recover from it so quickly💕
The dancers are so amazing, absolute magic. This truly shows that even the best makes mistakes every once in a while and it doesn't really matter as long as you go on. Loved this video ❤️
These guys recover faster than you can even relize there was even a mistake.
Yay! Another video! Thank you for adding slow motion, as it makes it easier for me to really see what is happening. I watched this the first time you uploaded, and I'm now watching it again! Thank you!
Awee haha, thank you, Morgan! I noticed a little typo in the first upload and I’m a bit of a perfectionist so I couldn’t help but take it down to edit it. And I’m glad the slow mo helped!
Stay safe :)
@@AngelaChen1115 Yes, thank you for the re-upload! I hope that you stay safe too!
I remember watching “The Nutcracker” (NYCB version) in December of 2019. I was in the third row. During “Waltz of the Flowers”, the Dewdrop Fairy was doing the arabesque to get off stage, when she full-on face planted on the stage. EVERYBODY in the audience went “oooooohhhhhh!” When she got up, there was a standing ovation!
I agree with the title card at 4:05 that the mistake is funny in part because the dancers humorously in on the 'fail'
I am watching a production of ‘Annie’ decades ago in Long Beach, Ca.
They are starting ‘It’s a Hard Knock Life’ and one of of the girls accidentally kicks her bucket into the orchestra pit.
Without pause or hesitation she carries on, doing the same actions as the other members of the chorus who had their props without a problem.
What a trooper.
They train harder than I can comprehend. They're so dedicated.
I know this video is a few years old but I do want to say that people tend to forget that under those tutus and pointe shoes there is a person. As ballet dancers people tend to put us on such high pedestals to be beautiful and perfect that they forget that we are people too and we are bound to make mistakes no matter how much we practice or how long we have been dancing. However, I will say that if a slipup does happen during a performance it's all about how you recover. Always make it a good recover because no one knows the chorography but the dancers and the artistic director.
Love ballet and people who practices this beautiful art.
Ok let’s be honest, Ms Copeland, with respect, completely messed up her Gisele entrance. She could have kinda recovered from dancing too early by repeating some steps to catch up w/the music. Obviously mistakes are made even by the best dancers, but recovering seamlessly is part of their talent. Instead, Copeland didnt even attempt to recover; she did her bit… and left the stage lol
Agreed! 😵💫
Unbelievable. I've seen all kinds of things over many years of ballet performances but that was truly dreadful.
At 3:00 not only she wasn't afraid of keep dancing, but I think the music dropped the tempo to catch it!
In the Giselle clip with Misty Copeland, the mistake was actually NOT the fault of Misty. The Queen of the Willis signalled Misty to bow and then gave the command to dance! Way too Early! In Silence! Additionally, the Conductor is supposed to follow the lead of the Principal Ballerina, and the Conductor failed to begin the music when Giselle began dancing...
I think they both messed up. The Queen signaled too early and Misty instead of waiting for the music she just followed the Queen’s signal and started dancing
It doesn't work this way. Ballerinas don't wait for a command or a signal to dance. They just know their dances and should listen to the music.
Most of their mistakes look graceful. Respect.
These dancers, for the most part, recover almost flawlessly, you wouldn’t notice if it hadn’t been pointed out. Awesome job ballerinas!
I miss dancing ballet a lot....
I left ballet class to study in a music conservatory as a pianist,
Maybe one day, I can watch beautiful and talented ballerinas dancing, while I'm playing down there in the orchestra
2:47 She improvised so good I’m this clip to where if I was on the audience and didn’t know how this part was supposed to look like I would have thought this was the dance..! Bravo!
I, a dancer, enjoy this video very much because it does show that every single thing is *never* perfect and never will be. And as my teacher always says, the audience doesn’t know what it’s supposed to look like so just keep going! They won’t know when you make a mistake
ive been doing ballet for only one year ive had a performance yesterday and kinda had two mistakes but honestly im still proud
Thank you for posting this it make me feel a lot better when I mess up.
make more of these! i love your videos and i always look forward to them :)
They look so magical
Yess I've been waiting for pt 4 so long I love these ballet mistakes series!
Recover in such a smooth way from losing balance in double fouettées is incredible!
Such amazing creatures they are.
these videos just make me feel more human than ever , so thank you for that :)
So beautiful to watch. Thanks
I love these videos so much! I find them really relaxing and it shows that great ballarinas make mistakes to!
Honestly, as a viewer I can’t even notice most of these mistakes 🤣 it’s so beautiful either way lol
Most of these are covered up super well too. If I saw these live, I wouldn't even notice. Ballet dancers are on a different plane of reality istg
VERY good cover ups !!! these phenomenal dancers are quite light on their feet and fast to correct, true athleticism
Vika Tereshkina has a black cat: maybe her own, escaped from her dressing room ?
She has such a control... black swan is hard enough without a cat running around! 😨
I thought I'd recieve a good laugh from watching this video, but instead I received so much grace from this video. It must have been painful and tiring, and yet they never lost a moment of grace of a ballerina. I've never really thought much about ballerinas but through these videos about the mistakes I somehow developed so much respect for them in this few minutes. Thank you so much Angela :) ❤
People always say...
*No matter how many mistakes you make while dancing, keep dancing and have fun!* honestly, when you keep dancing no one will notice the mistake you made.
93% of the comments: about the cat
7% of the comments: about the dancing
Damn. Dont know anything about ballet but great recovery from these masters. I remember jazz great George Benson missing a note at the the start of a solo. I noticed but others unfamiliar didn't, needless to say his recovery turned into one of the best improv's ever. Bravo!
Ok, I'm just still impressed by the second one. Like how was that jump so smooth and graceful ❤️
Most of them seemed innoticable to me.
Splendid friend, splendid. It is well donely been made to encourage people (or dancers) that not everything has to be perfectly precise. Indeed we learned to improving ourselves, but that shouldn't discourage us to keep on trying out best in peformance. So rather than ashame at one lack thing, be grateful for at least having several greatly done works. This would mean we still have much more amazing potential to put effort on it rather than be haunted by that single dot. Once we thankful for the many great results, we then can eagerly focus to study more and improving wholly as another addition to those great results. Thus, we still keep moving forward and even can inspired more people. How much more that happiness and enjoyment will be!
they covered their slips really well, being a person who doesn’t know a lot about professional ballet i wouldn’t have caught them if this wasn’t a compilation dedicated to small slips
I can’t even fail that Gracefully
Haha the falling swan!
Ballet is a really beautiful dance form
As I don't know anything about ballet, I would never have realised they have made a mistake if you hadn't pointed it out. Pretty impressive.
i’m not a dancer at all so i probably wouldn’t notice either way, but i woudldve never noticed most of mistakes, they’re so professional about it oh my god
Those people are so good, that the fails are hardly noticeable.
I’m just watching this now! Oh man, this makes me feel a lot better about myself bc all of these ballerinas are so amazing talented, so it’s nice to see that they, too, make mistakes. It’s inspiring and encouraging to see them persevere through their mistake as well! Also, Svetlana can do no wrong 😭❤️
I’m a ballet dancer too, getting my pointe shoes next year at age 13, now I’m 11 turning 12 this year in September, so this helps me cover up my mistakes, depending on the routine I’m doing
BRAVO!!! This was a fun video, and no disrespect to the performers. Things happen on stage. I've even fallen asleep on stage a few times.
This was so tastefully done. Thank you
Bravo to all this dancers!!♡Loved the black kitty running by Tereshkina's pique du turns like a champ!!\•○•/
One of our members is a ballerina (en pointe) and she has said that the recoveries are beautiful, the cat was also adorable and hilarious. Stay safe everyone! 💖
When I fell I felt so bad that I messed it up for everyone but seeing this helps my confidence
0:13 when the ballet performance turn into acrobat stunt.hahahaha
This video was in my recommendations, I don't know anything about ballet but I clicked anyways - I don't know, it seemed really interesting. And for me, seeing those mistakes makes me realize just how much hard work they put in. They're still human, everyone makes mistakes. And to cover them up and keep going like it didn't happen, that's art.
Much respect for every dancer.
I just got my point shoes yesterday! I know no one needed to hear that but I’m just so excited!
That’s nice but they can hurt a lot! Make sure to take care of your toes and feet.
I’m a dancer ( hip hop and ballet) and I think what you said in the intro was great..thank you
I love this video! Since I was little, I practiced ballet, but my mom had to take me out one year before point slippers since money was tight. I really want to go back though. Awesome video, I loved it ❤️👌
ivan vasiliev continues to amaze me 😂🙌
They are doing that the mistakes look smooth and elegant
as a 16 year old dancer myself, it feels nice to see that even professionals make mistakes. it just feels more realistic if that makes sense
There so good so much talent, the fact that they made a mistake makes it look natural and beautiful just as long as it's not too hard of a fall or too obvious
i remember being six and doing my first ballet show where I was a rat in a cinderella ballet. there was one scene where we had to pull this sled looking thing across the stage, but we were weak little six year olds so this girl beside me slips because she wasn't able to pull it. i and another girl tripped over her leg but the rest of the people who didn't trip continued to drag the sled onwards.
i watched the video and it wasn't _that_ obvious if you weren't looking for it, but it didn't change the fact that i nearly cried onstage.
