It's just insane, how relaxed and "light" they look, even though I know how much muscle strength you need to do even a little part of these things. Impossible 🤩

They use hidden muscles which you don't see or even recognize. Only a good teacher sees if you don't use them or if there's no instep.

the teachers are talking over each other and it's a bit frustrating, but amazing dancers!

@Xeniaphoses 5 жыл бұрын

That's because they're speaking to different students. :) It's not frustrating for the students!

@Xeniaphoses 5 жыл бұрын

We just hear it as them talking over each other, because they're both wearing microphones, haha, but they're at different places, one maybe talking to a specific student, while the other is making a general correction to the group

@adrienscott6913 5 жыл бұрын

With this style of pas de deux class, the male teacher is making call outs for the men and the women’s teacher is making call outs for the women. Some corrections are for both as during the first jumping exercise, he was saying softer landings, this was a cue for the men to control the landing and likewise for the women to roll through their demi pointe so it’s not as loud. It can seem like a lot of talking but after a couple of classes, you learn to hear quickly and listen to the corrections and call outs you need.

@sallygardiner7150 5 жыл бұрын

Because he is correction the boys and the same time that she is correcting the girls. Not confusing for the students.

Glad to see a little black ballerina present, though I wish there were more. I hope to see more black girls, particularly darker skinned black girls who don't look mixed, at this school going forward. Aspiring black ballerinas are usually told they don't have the right 'look' or right body type and ballerinas all need to look the same (pale skin), 'a black girl in the corps will be too distracting'..yet they have no problem using black males. Its just racist nonsense, racist people really don't want to see black girls perceived as beautiful, feminine and soft ,some key qualities of a ballerina in addition to talented, they get really uncomfortable by the idea and so ignore talented young girls and tell them they don't belong there. It needs to change!

Please don’t hate on this because you all don’t know me but as a minority group in the UK, statistically 1 black dancer for every 9 white dancers say, is not unreasonable. However, the UK has a large Asian community (Pakistani/Indian) who are definitely not represented in ballet/here. Maybe a cultural thing? A lot of immigrant families don’t exactly want their kids dancing over being a doctor/dentist/engineer 😂.

Not sure about the upper or lower schools, but the company has several black male dancers. No women though.
