- Hi, my name is Pam. I make ballet videos. These are my twin grand babies, Abigail and Alexander, born December 3, 2023 at just 30 weeks. Click here gofund.me/75732010 for their story.
Music: "Etude No 1 for STRING (=P Paul lol) Quartet" by Peter Sandberg (www.epidemicsound.com/track/j...) and "Refined Enlightenment" by Howard Harper-Barnes (www.epidemicsound.com/track/b...)
Svetlana Zakharova/Светлана Захарова is a People's Artist of Russia, laureate of the Russian state prize, prima ballerina of the Bolshoi Theatre of Russia, and étoile of La Scala. She was born in Lutsk (Ukraine). At the age of 10 she entered the Kiev Choreography School. Having spend six years in the class of Valeria Sulegina, she took part in the international young dancers contest "Vaganova Prix" in Saint Petersburg, where she was the youngest ballet dancer. At the age of 15 Svetlana won the second prize.
After the contest she accepted the invitation to go to the famous Vaganova Ballet Academy in Saint Petersburg. She skipped the second class and went straight to the graduating class which was the only case in the whole history of this educational institution.
Zakharova immediately drew attention to herself and six months later when she took invitation to perform a solo part in the ballet "Don Quixote" in the Mariinsky Theatre. When she was seventeen, Svetlana Zakharova graduated from the Vaganova Academy and in nearly no time she was accepted into the legendary ballet company of the Mariinsky Theatre.
Svetlana was noticed by the outstanding teacher of the Mariinsky Theatre and a famous ballet dancer the People's artist of Russia Olga Moiseeva. Under her guidance, Zakharova debuted as Maria in "The Fountain of Bakhchisarai". Then she danced Gulnara in "Le Corsaire" and performed "The 7th Waltz and Mazurka" in "Chopiniana".
But the most tremendous success was brought to her by the role of Giselle in the ballet of the same name. Shortly after the premiere Zakharova received an offer from Vladimir Vasiliev to join the company of the Bolshoi Theater in Moscow.
Having received her official 'prima' status at the age of 18, Svetlana continued her work for the Mariinsky Theater expanding her repertoire with classical and modern pieces.
At the same time she started to receive international recognition. Her global fame rapidly grew. In 2001, she signed her first contract with L'Opera de Paris for "Bayadère". It was the first time in thirty years that a ballet dancer from Russia had a chance to perform on the French capital's famous stage.
Zakharova has toured to every part of the world: New York Metropolitan Opera, London Covent Garden, The Teatro Colón in Buenos Aires, Bayerische Staatsoper in Munich, Teatro di san Carlo in Napoli, Vienna Opera, National Theater in Tokyo, stages in many cities of Europe, Asia, Australia and South America. La Scala signed a long-term contract with her and awarded her with the status of étoile. This was the first time in the history of this great theater that such a distinction was made. Up until then, no Russian ballet dancer had been awarded this honor before. She also took part in DVD-recordings of "Swan Lake", "Bayadère" and "Giselle".
In 2003 Svetlana Zakharova decided to join the ballet company of the Bolshoi Theater. Famous ballet dancer People's Artist of Russia Ludmila Semeniaka has become her tutor. Zakharova's first work in the Bolshoi was the ballet-premiere "La Fille du Pharaon" by the famous choreographer Pierre Lacotte. A recording of this ballet was issued on DVD. Gradually Zakharova was introduced into every piece of the Bolshoi's classical repertoire.
She is still performing.

Ballerinas are the strongest athletes on Earth.
And fabulous artists, let’s not forget that 😉
@@giasharie274 You are absolutely correct!
Strongest athletes on Earth! 😂😂
thank uuuu
With the best shape.
She's like a sculpture that changes shape within seconds creating fluid motion. Amazing.
Like water
That’s beautiful
She dynamic she's fluid
❤
Svetlana was recruited even before she graduated from dance academy the Vasagnova into the Maranisky theatre in St. Petersberg where she started doing solos prior to being promoted to prema ballerina. Later she joined the Bolshoi theater where she remained. Years of hard work, dedication and striving for perfection , she is one of the greatest ballerinas of her generation. 😊
She has incredibly long limbs, which all have a capacity for a slight over extension. So she is physically very gifted indeed. But she’s also an extremely graceful and artistic dancer. So enchanting to watch.
Her smile is also incredible. Perfection in motion.
There is no doubt that Svetlana is one of the best ballet dancers in the world.
My golden dancer!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Of all times
Amen! ❤️
Absolutely! 😍🦢
who are the other best dancers in the world?🤔☺
She had dedication, fluidity, total body control, a total relationship with the music, full extension, self-confidence, true artistry, poise beyond description and she is very powerful. Wow indeed!
yes much stronger than Eddy Hall...
She was perfection.
YES YES YES
Growing up in NY, US, I was privileged to see may theatrical performances. I learned to appreciate fine arts & value cultural diversity. I enjoyed many shows but my most cherished memories where at the Russian Ballets. Even as a child the experience was divinely captivating & truly magical! Every detail was perfect & the dancers were magnificent! After 6 decades of admiration, I believe Russian's are the World's best! Their expression of beauty is beyond words!
Oh how wonderful.. what treasured memories those must be. ANd I can only agree with you wholeheartedly! Simply perfection they are...
Светлана Захарова - великая балерина. Как чувствует музыку, какие чувства передает танцем! А какие линии, нет ни у кого! Она - совершенство!
Some dancers , having this fantastic leg raise capacity are merely turning into “gymnastic “ dancers.. loosing their dancing essence .. her physical abilities are serving the sacred essence of dancing..she’s expressing both.. she’s just stunning!!
Thanks for this great video ..
Looks like the essence of being a floppy noodle to me.
@@melissasmith6762 I should be such a noodle!!!
I completely agree with you!!!
@@michelleduquette8950 Dang those genetics making your connective tissue all regular. They should call dance trophies the Betty Spaghetti Award.
You're welcome Isabelle. So glad you enjoyed it. =)
Ни одна балерина так меня не потрясла, как Захарова. Она разговаривает ногами, я её слышу и чувствую.
Да!! Ноги поют!!! Пойте песни ангелов.
@@PamBoehmeSimon А ее руки... От них невозможно оторвать глаз.
The russian dancers are the best all over the world. All them are magicals on the scene!!
Why are they the best?
@@paulaw3399 because we come from the world of discipline! Our coaches are the toughest, the hardest on us, in every area of life ! We come from grace, power and fluidity that no other beings can compare to...study Russian ballet ,sit with it for a moment, feel it...and then, we will discuss !
I agree with you but your oil painters suck. Sorry, somebody had to say it.
You also have a ruler who just signed a law keeping him in power. Enjoy your dictator.
"Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted."
Russians aren't taught to think for themselves, they're taught to be followers.
Svetlana Zakharova...o balerina cu calități fizice excepționale...cu o expresivitate impresionanta ..dar și inteligența și sensibilitate ....o încântare pt cei care o privesc...
Sigur când se întâlnesc talentul uimitor ...dublat de multa munca și de o școală ,de profesori ff buni...rezultatul este dincolo de cuvinte.
Mulțumim că există astfel de artiști minunați!!
My legs cramped up just watching her...I’m laying on a couch eating ice cream😋 She’s stunning and talented!
That's very funny
I'm sure you have other valuable qualities that she doesn't.
Lol
😅 Ice-cream is something shd possibly eat on her birthday!
HAHAHA
Svetlana Zakarova is one of the greatest Ballerina.
Bellissima, Bravissima, Espressiva, Elegante, Femminile, Sinuosa, Fluida, Sensuale, Trasparente, Perfetta. TI AMO SVETLANA! CHe esempio straordiario di Donna e Artista.
Non saprei ki scegliere tra lei ed Ossipova ..sono i fari del balletto russo niente è nessuno terrestre le supererà mai
Wow, indeed. She is what a song looks like.
what an absolutely lovely comment, i adore that thought
Amazing lines, feet, extensions, core strength, talent
and she makes it look so effortless - so easy. I am amazed.
And grace.
С. Захарова лучшее, что я когда-либо видела! Идеальная балерина, каждое движение шедевр. ❤
The MOST BEAUTIFUL BALLERINA. I DOUBT ANYONE WILL EVER SURPASS THIS TOTALLY EXQUISITE DANCER!
❤❤❤❤ СВЕТЛАНА ЗАХАРОВА ЛУЧШАЯ
Officially the best ballerina I have ever seen! I have danced for 20 years and I am stunned by her perfection! Absolutely magnificent!
So amazing beautiful ...she is UNIQUE, flexibility and muscular too, actress, she is not only dancing, she is flying, she is the only one, nobody got all this skills......Thank you Pam!!!! Take care and have a good dancing Christmas....💃🏼🎅🌲🥂
You are welcome Florence, and thank YOU. So happy you enjoyed. 🎄🎁 💚
She seems to be defying gravity....she's not any mere mortal like us is she...????
@@stuartmcmillan2553 the word ethereal comes to mind...
@@PamBoehmeSimon Just wanted to thank you for your beautiful video... I'm just blown away watching Svetlana.. such grace... I'm lucky I can walk to bathroom without falling over..!!!!
You are quite welcome dear Stuart. And, I'm with you on that walking to the bathroom thing lol... "who put that wall there?!" or "who moved the doorway over??"
This dancer is too perfect to be human. She's so otherworldly.
I have never heard of Svetlana until just now and she is absolutely phenomenal!
I am humbled and honored to have played a part in introducing her to you. Thank you for watching, and for taking the time to write. I am so pleased you enjoyed it. I just yesterday made another video showing a less classical side to her... she is surprisingly just as brilliant at contemporary ballet. Here is a link if you're interested. Thanks again Leah. ua-cam.com/video/usVdER3iCG0/v-deo.html
Didn't know that agony and pain could look so elegant ...
Divine Svetlana - the best ballerina EVER!
She is radiant, powerful, and exquisite. What an incredible athlete and artist. The leap at 7:10 took my breath away. "The ground beneath the feet of a dancer is sacred." ~ Martha Graham. Zakharova is that quote personified.
The best of the best in every aspect.
Isn't she??!! Glad you enjoyed.
2:53 - I did not think a split greater than 180 degrees could exist, but here it is. Absolutely stunning. In mid air too! Imagine leaping high in the air, doing a full split, and landing gracefully on point. Over and over again. My god! It boggles the mind. What an incredible athlete she is!
Как же она прекрасна! Божественная гармония во всем!
The still photography of Svetlana are simply amazing! Such grace ,such flexibility, a true artist!
She is the greatest ballerina in the world right now. Hands down. I kept praising Natalia Makarova as being the be-all, end-all of ballet. Natalia just seemed to be born with all the advantages. She just... had everything. I never thought there would be anyone better. But low and behold, then... Svetlana came around. Damn. She's a goddess. It would be a blessing from above if she took it upon herself to perform a piece here in America.
I have never witnessed such effortlessness, grace, beauty, perfection and artistry at the same time before✨
Neither did i, she has "it' all
Like no other.
Sylvie Guillem
Watching Svetlana is beyond words. She is a godess of dance. God blesses her always. I praise for the privilegie of seeing her dancing for many years forward.
О, я видела один раз Светлану вживую. !!!! Это было в Петербурге, танцевали звезды Мариинского, Светлана приехала из Москвы. Что сказать? Светлана это другое измерение, это космос, это квантовая физика, это что-то абсолютно неземное. Это был современный номер , здесь он показан первым, это был поток какой-то необыкновенной силы, неземной красоты, какой-то эпический размах ее природы, даже трудно слова подбирать.. я была ошеломлена, как и все в зале…
Превосходная техника, но нет душевности в танце, поэтому воспринимается, как гимнастика в балетном костюме.
@@Aft296 а доя меня это божественно
She is stunning and an incredible dancer and athlete!
Yes, thank you for using that word "athlete" ...not only do ballet dancers have to have the physical prowess, coordination, and strength of an athlete, they have to look good at the same time lol.
@@PamBoehmeSimon thanks for outstanding video.
@@KateBates22zabu you're welcome Kate!! And thank YOU for watching and for taking the time to write. 😊❤️
Came back to watch again. INCREDIBLE. Some people have God-given talent. This lady is without a doubt one of those people. Thankyou.
Ballet is the most precise dance science in the history of world art. Zakharova was the masterpiece
I feel like I should stand up and Applaud this Magnificent beauty. The most perfect Ballerina. It is so beautiful to watch
Love your charming comment, thanks for watching!!
She makes it looks like it’s so easy everyone should be able to do it. She never lets the difficulty of the steps interferes her expression. She’s so incredibly strong and dedicated. It’s very inspiring
She does it with apparent great ease, but I definitely don't think it's easy.
Можно отправить это видео в космос - как свидетельство совершенства человеческого Тела и Духа!
She is like a goddess! 😍😍😍 Talent + hard work + charisma = Svetlana Zakharova. Peerless, perfection in every movement. The ending just blows the brain. These are not hands, but real wings! It's just magical.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️❤️❤️
My goodness, that was indeed amazing! You really picked perfect moments that showcase her grace, strength, and flexibility. Just lovely.
Thank you so much! Your kind words are very appreciated. Take care
Indescribable beauty! She's beyond text-book perfect!!❤️
Great way to put it Kristin. She IS text-book perfect with all sorts of extra trimmings!!! Thanks for watching and for taking the time to write.
The best ! Io la trovo immensa! La perfezione ! Talento puro!😍
Ай да ножки, что выделывают, красота необыкновенная, это же так сложно, в таком хрупком тельце столько силы, спасибо за такой шикарный подбор, Светлана чудесна!
Это вы ребенку скажите ай да ножки , что выделывают..
Техника хорошая, а души в танце - нет. Гимнастика на балетной сцене, скучновато.....
@@Aft296 вам на народные танцы нужно, там очень душевно, без шуток
Training is rigorous in Russian classes + Talent is gifted. The essence of Svetlana.
Умница, красавица, уникум в балете. Звеэда.
You don’t get any better.She made me cry when I saw her perform live.Absolutely stunning to watch. NZ
I agree. I so dream of seeing her dance live one day. What a treasured memory that must be.

@@ninashaw8179 так Украина и есть русская земля, за исключением западных территорий.
@@ninashaw8179 да, но она русская. И своего высочайшего мастерства достигла благодаря Вагановской школе.
There are those athletes and dancers who can simply take over a game or performance and show us why they are among the elite. Her dancing is breathtaking. What an honor it would be to present such a gifted passionate artist a huge beautiful bouquet!
Master of all. Taking in consideration all features in my opinion she has been the best ballerina in history, or at least the most complete. Brava!!!
Чудо балерина!Обожаю ее!!!
The best Ballerina Assoluta! Puro marravillo, que nunca desaparezca!!!
THAT VERY LAST STILL PHOTO IS JUST..... UMMMM..... perfection...she is just that.
I know right??!! There was never a doubt what my final image would be. =)
Невероятная красота!!!
Уланову называли обыкновенной богиней. Светлана это абсолютно необыкновенная неземной красоты богиня.
ROMÂNIA /😌 ✨✨✨✨✨ 👌 2021 - 💪🍀💗🕊️🙌
Уланова - непревзойдённая балерина
Magnificent, all her hard work, commitment devotion comes to the fore in her dance
Отличная школа русского балета, великолепная балерина совершенная во всех смыслах
She was born for the ballet.
Is absolutely wonderfull
Бесподобная! Какая красота!!! И какой неимоверный труд, который стоит за этой красотой 💖💕

Everything else about her too of course; to me she is perfection, the beauty of her movements is unmatched.

This is a wonderful compilation, thoughtfully curated. It is more than just dancing perfection, it is the soul and essence of ballet. Thank you.
Oh please dear Rod, forgive my tardy reply. I just now followed this comment thread out and read your very gracious message. Thank you so much. I researched for months looking for just. the right clips and photos I felt would do justice to everything Zakharova embodies as a ballet dancer and artist. Thank YOU for taking the time to write and for so thoughtfully calling attention to that effort. Hope you and yours are well. Please take care, and thanks again.
Ballet is so hard to do and so much discipline, structure and training with a lifetime of practice. She makes it look effortless. WOW💫🍀👏😇
I CAN'T watch more than 10 seconds without crying... So graceful. ..So beautiful
I'm glad to know I have a fellow "weeper" when it comes to exquisite ballet... I quite often edit my videos through tears of joy and disbelief in just how beautiful a human being can be.
Good job, guys, your soul is intact
Я люблю её...какое совершенство и техническое и деликатное...она уникальная.
Best ever...ever!!!
Технична👏👏👏Виртуозна👏👏👏💐💐💐
Wow..... watching her makes me believe there must be something magical to our world after all.
well there is, but it is not wholly of this world. Know that.
Not magic, just a great bone structure, years of optimal training, and tireless work!
Невероятное, удивительное сочетание пластики, грации и силы. Просто чудо как хороша!
Какая красота, Прима Светлана.
Her legs are amazingly long. I can hardly believe how talented she is. BRAVA!
Я потрясена!!! Она Богиня! Неповторимая!

Так что очень рад, что вам понравилось.
❤❤❤WOW❤❤❤❤Beautiful too❤❤❤❤❤❤
Светлана, милая Светлана, какое счастье что есть, что можно увидеть тебя и воплотится вдохновением.
Недавно читала коммент одной тусовщицы, видела, мол Захарову в Монако-лошадь. Задело? Не то слово. Но подумала-человек явно балета не видит, имеет глупость писать об этом... Оскорбить это...чудо..И еще критиков не терплю-неудачники- ты покажи нам СВОЕ дело, мы посмотрим. Кто ты есть, чтобы судить тех, кто делает? . На Захарову можно смотреть бесконечно.. это какой то другой уровень, даже по сравнению с моими любимыми советскими балеринами.
А мне кажется наш советский балет двинула вперёд художественная гимнастика современная- периода Ирины Винер .Смотрю на Захарову- растяжка гимнастическая,в советское время балерины утверждали,что у них угол поднятия ноги четко прописан и выше им поднимать нельзя,это уже не классический балет.Но смотрю,всё-таки ноги до ушей это красиво и перешпагат лучше,чем прыжки с висячей задней ногой.Мне нравится именно такой балет.
@@user-rg7ee3ej2c Диана Вишнева сказала:это мы {своё поколение имеет ввиду)ногу высоко поднимали,сейчас возвращается старая школа.Каждое время имеет свои особенности.Дело не в этом.Думаю,Вы будете смотреть Уланову,Максимову,Н.Павлову,Лопаткину,можно продолжать перечислять-будете восхищаться каждой,по своему.Мне вот кажется они не отсюда,эльфы что ли какие-то.И физические законы земные к ним отношения не имеют.Извините за излишнюю эмоциональность-просто ошеломляющая красота.
