She is by far my favorite ballerina and it absolutely kills me that she decided to not renew her contract with the Houston Ballet. I loved watching her in all of her performances. She is an absolute beauty and a sweetheart. I hope whichever company hires her, treasures her as well. Love you Aria!!
Ms. Alekzander is simply amazing! We are so lucky/blessed/privileged to have her here in Houston. My family has had the opportunity to meet her and my 9-year old daughter can spot her on stage in a matter of seconds. She is simply beaming every time she dances and is so graceful and a joy to watch. She is just as she is in this video - just incredible!
oh my goodness, i have never heard anyone say exactly what i think of dance, how i feel when im onstage. my mother used to tell me before i went onstage, "have fun making magic". and thats exactly what it is to me.Aria has inspired me to keep following my dreams as a dancer and never give up.thanks anaheim ballet!
wow she is amazing. watching ballet videos makes me miss it and regret leaving it even more than i did before. i hope to go back to it and take some classes in college, but it's been years since i danced.
I love that the Anaheim Ballet dancers are so sweet i wish i would've done ballet as a kids or gymnastics they are wonderful but i sure will get my future kids into it
i love how she was talking about the "magic" of ballet. it's so true! i always wish i could have been a lovely little ballerina my own self, because i think it's just so beautiful and perfect.
do i sound crazy when i say you can hear the passion for dance in her voice and see them in her movements and smile? i almost cried when i watched this
oh my gosh, i love when she says 'do i sound crazy?' because all my friends say i sound insane when i talk about ballet like that..she's so beautiful! yay! new inspiration!
Yes, Aria. I understand completely. I'm not a dancer, but I play French Horn and I someday hope to make a living playing and teaching. I feel more like myself when I'm playing music. It makes me feel like I'm a part of something bigger than myself. Thank you for being so inspirational!
Things like this always make me wish I'd started ballet at a younger age. I started almost 3 years ago, when I was 13. I love ballet, and I work so hard at it, but when I face disappointments about not getting good roles because I look to old for the parts I could dance, it make me wish so fiercely I'd started earlier. I remember watching my town's production of the Nutcracker when I was younger, and wishing I could be up on stage. I love ballet, and I only wish I'd started earlier.
It's very interesting when you're watching a video from a person who is living your dream, with the mentality of "Wow I wish I was her..." and realizing that you are actually able to see yourself in that video. I had surgery a few weeks ago, so I've been out of dance for a while, and I've been a little anxious about getting back up there, but Aria has inspired me and now I'm more than ready to get back! Thank you, and I hope to see you on stage some day. Standing next to me ;-)
i really like the style of this video and she is not only an amazing dancer but the way she speaks is..... powerful? i dont know this was just great. definitely one of my fav vids.
I agree with all of the comments below! she is a great dancer and the part where she said that ballet is magical was awesome I couldnt agree more. Ballet is truly something out of this world, the grace of the ballerinas in synch with the music its just ... I dont even have word to describe it. and congrats to the camera man! (vocabulary? sorry im from mexico) he took some AMAZING shots that took this video to a whole other level !! really beautiful keep up the good work guys :D
she's such a great dancer. i did ballet two years ago and i felt inlove with it. i had to stop because i immigrated here in the US and i cant afford to enroll in a ballet school. it sucks but hopefully i can dance again. :)
What do these ppl do to teach their dancers to do such AMAZING completely perfect pirouttes? How do they do it? Yeah, you know it. Ballet is magic. I love it, and I miss it so much.
it really looks like the Houston Ballet has done something great with her. She was so amazing before she went, and now she's even more amazing. and the whole little thing about magic was so inspiring and so true. and the contemporary ballet looks like it fits her style perfectly.
She is looks even more radiant than I can remember from previous videos. Is it possible? I almost envy what she can experience and feel and learn, I would love a feel of it, too! And the new video is just beautiful!
I haven't danced in 2 months and my summer intensive starts in less than 2 weeks- this video made my NEED for dancing skyrocket through the ROOF. I love Aria, she's beautiful :) AND that whole thing she said at the beginning is going on my Facebook status, because that's how I feel about dance :D
her talent and passion are nothing short of absolute inspiration....
What she is saying is amazing. Her description of ballet is perfect, beautiful and touching.
She is by far my favorite ballerina and it absolutely kills me that she decided to not renew her contract with the Houston Ballet. I loved watching her in all of her performances. She is an absolute beauty and a sweetheart. I hope whichever company hires her, treasures her as well. Love you Aria!!
Im in love. Shes so HAPPY, not bitter or jaded and reserved like other dancers with too much of their talent going to their heads.
"Do I sound crazy?"
Absolutely beautiful and stunning
