The last moment of the final pirouette-- what power! The power of his directed attention through his eyes; the energy of his internal resistance; the sense of r e a c h THROUGH his limbs and spine and pelvis; "...and (and!)" the training to know to bring his heel forward to achieve that last quarter of rotation to the desired corner-- and he made it! What a feat of mental and physical will, as well as lighthearted joy. Thank you artists! 🌹
Slimy Weasles This guy is a very nice person. Since he was a boy, he and a friend of him have been appearing in media. So being in front of a camera is very easy to him.
That's great. :) I'm glad that he is a nice person, and doing well. Sometimes really terrible people are more successful than nice ones, so I'm glad that he is not one of those people. :)
I was cacking myself when she described it, but it was actually quite lovely when he did it! And his determination to freakin' do it and finish it so beautifully at the end!! WAAAHHHH I love the Royal Ballet!
***** The original way of doing this dance move was perfect so who came along and changed it and why, particularly whist it was easier for the dancer too! I don't like things to be bastardized.
The lady describes 'attitude' at 2.45, likening it to the Piccadilly ( statue of) 'Eros', thus perpetuating the error of thinking the famous statue in Piccadilly Circus is of the love god. But the statue has nothing to do with Eros - it is, rather, the Angel of Christian Charity. But I guess it's too late now.
The statue is actually Anteros, the twin brother of Eros. In Greek mythology Anteros was the god of requited Love and Selfless Love. Anteros became associated with the idea of Christian Charity because of his Selfless Love.

GREAT =D
It is remarkable how similar it is to historical fencing.
Impressive. :)
Can someone tell me what's the name of the piece played by the pianist? I think I've heard it before but don't remember the name. :(
+Alina Mayorga When he did his turns a la seconde? That's part of the coda from Don Q :)
I think it’s from Don Quixote
Am I the only one who I think he looks like Marianela Nuñez? Especialy at the mouth and jaw.
Now you've pointed it out I can't STOP seeing it..... :)
I thought Cecchetti created the attitude
They need to work on their balance. They need strengthening exercises.
sorry, those pirouettes were awful!!!
how so?
So , you turn better that him ?
really? what exactly was bad?
