- After 12 years of living and dancing in St Petersburg, Xander Parish left his career as principal dancer with the Mariinsky Ballet - and much else behind - due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine. After many months without performing, he has joined the Norwegian National Ballet and also taken on the directorship of a project, Reunited in Dance, launched at the Segerstrom Center in California in November. In this filmed interview, he shares his story with Dance Europe.

He's not only a talented (and good-looking :) dancer but a person with a beautiful soul. Pleasure to watch and listen to. Wish him all the best. Xander, we miss you here in Saint Petersburg
So glad to get this update from Xander Parish and to know that he and his wife are safe and well after months of uncertainty. Norway and Yorkshire have close historic links - even their DNA is intertwined! - so Xander should fit in well.
Great..i was waching his career and i am glad he has such oportunities...bravo....❤
You made the right decision and it must have been very hard to choose. No matter where you go your talent is yours. I am sure the years in Russia were beautiful and have left very valuable memories. You are richer for them.
Удачи и успехов 🎉👏
It's great Xander has been accepted in this ballet company I think England did not treat him.well on his return although I'm.very fond of England
So glad he's with a great company wonder if he will ever return to Russia I feel royal ballet let him.down but maybe he's in the better place
Жаль, что Ксандер повелся на пропаганду своей родной страны и не разобравшись в ситуации, принципиально громко покинул Россию, чем, думаю, захлопнул эту дверь для себя. Думаю, что сейчас он жалеет о таком шаге
Xander is talented but Russia made him.theartist he is
Great dancer but hope that isn’t real fur on his Canada Goose looking jacket. A disappointment if it is.
oh please
@@PeacherLiz he’s a nice guy, I have been to a ballet class he taught at the royal opera house a few years ago, but real fur is grim in my opinion. And CG is a grim company. End of.
