I'm obsessed with these rehearsal vids. There's something about creative collaboration and the constructive way critique is given and taken that I find addictive.
I'm obsessed with them ammnd I've never taken a dance class in my life. It's so interesting and I understand a lot more of what they're saying than I would have thought I would
you probably dont care but does someone know a trick to get back into an Instagram account?? I somehow lost the password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me.
i've been dancing since i was three and let me tell you, our pianist seems to be napping 70% of the time and kids around with us all day, but he definitely has all the terminology down pat from just being submerged in it day in day out over the years and tbh i'd say he probably knows the choreography better than me 😂
For me, as an avarege human who does sport to keep in shape, I would really love to meet a ballet dancer in person to see all those muscles how they all work together in such a harmony. I don't envy them, they have to bring their bodies to extremes we can't even imagine. I admire them. For me, ballet dancers are icons.
One thing that's fun about the ballet cinemas (we lost the RB a few years ago but still get Bolshoi) is you get the giant-sized view of all those muscles working together!
So lovely and relaxing to watch Darcey encouraging Fumi Kaneko as she gently coaches her. Not one negative comment and she gets the best out of all the dancers. Love her xx
I noticed that as well. I wonder if it has something to do with Darcey being a former principal. She understands the pressure and likely knows what method of coaching works best. ☺️
fumi kaneko is such a beautiful dancer and a perfect fit for aurora, her balances are a work of art. i don't live in the uk but i'd give ANYTHING to see her perform aurora
I rarely feel any kind of connection to the dancer when I watch something as technical as ballet, but this dancer, Fumi...I totally get it. I don't feel like I'm just watching a collection of pretty tricks, I feel like I'm watching a person with personality telling a story. She's awesome.
Am I the only one that loves the part rehearsed at 6:18? Her arms move like a blossoming rose, and I find it quite sad that other versions other than Royal's don't have it
I can understand why other versions don’t include this step, because I personally think this move suits more for Odette in Swan Lake, although Fumi does it so elegantly
Am equally transfixed by Fumi's arms! My first thought; her arms move like a rhythmic gymnastics ribbon in the air. The performance, watched front on, is an incredible optical illusion of one continuous fluid movement. Marianela Nuñez is beautiful too, but it was this moment, watching Fumi's arms spin, that had me falling in love with Ballet
She is gorgeous, her pointe work is stellar. Beautiful, easy extensions and she's eager to learn. She seems like a dream partner as well. I see her going very far with this company. Best of luck Fumi.❤
Everything looks so graceful, and yet she is dripping with sweat! I was always the same in dance class. It takes so much work to make it look effortless!
Laura Cuthbertson was injured ahead of the live broadcast tonight, so Fumi stood in as Aurora. She did a blinder, Darcey Bussell was almost in tears at the end of the performance.
@@zoegould1042 To my very inexperienced eye her Rose Adage was one of the best I have seen, but I was not there in person on this occasion. There was a rehearsal about eighteen months ago that my wife attended and she had the opportunity to talk with Fumi, who was utterly charming. Surely they will make her a principal, now.
I love the way they polish and refine an already stunning performance until perfection. It is this articulation and all the accumulation of hard work that make a final product so mesmerizing.
This is such a great example of nit-picking which doesn't come across as mean because she's just as quick to compliment what she likes Just very sure herself without being snappy or rude
Idk why it gives me so much second hand serotonin when they compliment them 😂😂 like the “good girl” made me really happy 😂 maybe bc I think they deserve to hear it lol
I absolutely love this! Fumi is so talented, Darcey is an amazing coach and I love how they interact with Paul the Pianist. That’s just so great to watch 😍
I love how half of the corrections are actual words, and the other half, they start a sentence, use a hand motion, and everyone knows what they're talking about.
Such a joy to watch these wonderful artists creating magic with all their conviction and heart. Makes me cry with reverence and gratitude watching them. Thank you Royal Ballet!
These dancers are gorgeous. I would love to have a rehearsal with that female coach! She's able to explain the ideas she wants very clearly. It's wonderful
This is so beautiful, watching her makes my heart ache a bit as I can't dance how I used to due to a chronic disease. I miss the environment, so I love that we can sort of glimpse what goes on BTS! It's like we're right there watching. Just lovely. 💛
I love when TRB post these. I have been watching all day & rewatching some from prior years. I always get such a big smile, watching ballet makes me so happy!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Amazing dancer how she immediately goes “more creamy more creamy” at comando 6:16 that’s what I call good movements quality understanding and mailable interpreter.
I'm a conductor, and these coachings inspire me to get the best playing from the orchestra that I can. The greater the performance, the more ways there are to improve it.
CRIPES ! Astonished at the sheer hard work involved. I like Darcy's gorgeous manners. Still such a fragrant lady. Thank you for this and the wonderful finished performance that followed. The costumes were scintillating. xxxxx
fumi is gorgeous omg
Stunning
yes! she's so beautiful!
So elegant, graceful and sparkly
For me she is the most beautiful Japanese ballerina ever
Darcey is such a great coach! She criticizes, but it's always positive and helpful, not a single negative or demeaning comment coming from her!
I must agree Darcey is a great coach. With her experience the RB will benefit.
that's someone who has no demons inside of her
It’s wonderful to have Darcey back. Hope we can see more of her in these videos.
Agree!
Yes. That's why I like to watch Royal ballet rehearsals. All teachers have very positive advice with gentle words. So “royal”
these ballet videos have the kindest comments sections i've ever seen. everyone is just here to enjoy the art. i love it!
yes! I'm new and really enjoying the comments giving so much info and love that causes newbies to remember names/credits better
I'm obsessed with these rehearsal vids. There's something about creative collaboration and the constructive way critique is given and taken that I find addictive.
Me too! And I'm not even a dancer. Never have been.

Me too
We LOVE seeing a man AND a woman coaching a pas rehearsal. So important to have two people who understand both roles!
Can we acknowledge the pianist´s performance ?
acknowledged!
Dustin Anderson we’re always under-appreciated
Bravo to the pianist👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
he plays incredibly and not to mention he is doing the page flips himself! that's amazing
@@xinjie2655 omg yeah page turning for yourself is so stressful
I love how the pianist knows all the correct ballet terminology, "From the penché?" "Yes, exactly." 💕

@@sarahliu1231 damn u know what having a pianist in the studio is already pretty good
Can’t imagine what his score looks like. Pencil markings everywhere
Fumi is a STAR!! 🌟🌟🌟 The delicacy and pure classical finesse of the Rose Adagio are beautifully captured by her, I'm sure her shows will be magical.
Fumi's smile is so beautiful and her dancing is breathtaking.

carmen claudia NO KIDDING! These are Kiborg bodies!
Kaneko is the epitome of the grace and her smile is so pretty!
So lovely to see Darcy where she belongs. Passing all those amazing skills on to the next generation. She is a lovely coach
Gosh its so gorgeous, even watching rehearsals without a proper stage and costumes, it's so breathtaking!
Fumi Kaneko is really a beautiful Aurora. Danced with Grace and style.
So lovely and relaxing to watch Darcey encouraging Fumi Kaneko as she gently coaches her. Not one negative comment and she gets the best out of all the dancers. Love her xx

Both coaches are so positive and respectful, yet strict and on point. Amazing!
fumi kaneko is such a beautiful dancer and a perfect fit for aurora, her balances are a work of art. i don't live in the uk but i'd give ANYTHING to see her perform aurora
She did a worldwide live broadcast tonight...
@@glynnwright1699 omg thank you for letting me know!! maybe i can find it somewhere!!
girl same omg i was supposed to see swan lake in march but i was unable to bc of covid :(
I rarely feel any kind of connection to the dancer when I watch something as technical as ballet, but this dancer, Fumi...I totally get it. I don't feel like I'm just watching a collection of pretty tricks, I feel like I'm watching a person with personality telling a story. She's awesome.
Fumi’s dancing is so graceful and delicate. Also she’s absolutely gorgeous.

Yes, lovely! Didn't Viviana Durante do it as well? I had a video of it, but can't find it online.
I agree I looove it and when i listen to the music i I always imagine her with very sparkly arms and a beaming face
@@hannekekoolen8243Yes, Vivian’s does it spectacularly !

gahd these ballet boys are so gorgeous... especially lukas and his cheekbones for ages. lol
Fumi dances so beautifully.
Everything looks so graceful, and yet she is dripping with sweat! I was always the same in dance class. It takes so much work to make it look effortless!
Fumi is so fluid, delicate and wonderful! My favorite ballerina! So charming. Congrats for all the dancers! Such an amazing work!
I saw Fumi perform Aura yesterday as a stand in for Lauren Cuthbertson and she was superb! Absolutely mesmerising and breathtaking!
I’m amazed of her grace and beauty and that balance tough 😱❤️
Also let's give it up for the pianist! He's on point (No pun intended) 😁
I am glad that Fumi has the role.
The coach are wonderful.
Laura Cuthbertson was injured ahead of the live broadcast tonight, so Fumi stood in as Aurora. She did a blinder, Darcey Bussell was almost in tears at the end of the performance.
We were lucky to be at the performance last night, and were both speechless and in tears! Absolutely magical

There was a rehearsal about eighteen months ago that my wife attended and she had the opportunity to talk with Fumi, who was utterly charming. Surely they will make her a principal, now.
How did she get injured?
@@dahlia5233 I think it was a minor muscle injury, that happened during rehearsal, which required a few days rest.
"She did a blinder"....what does that mean?
I can’t believe Fumi isn’t a principal yet
larryslove890 Or Yuhui Choe. They deserve to be principals already.
Agreed!
@@erod97 I saw a clip of Yuhui doing Swan Lake in Korea and she was just gorgeous! I'd really like to see her do it in London!
Lauren Cuthbertson is prima in sleeping beuty and she is amazing
what is being principal means in ballet?
I love the way they polish and refine an already stunning performance until perfection. It is this articulation and all the accumulation of hard work that make a final product so mesmerizing.
Fumi is so talented, she’s one of the bests! Perfect lines, knows how to control her body, so beautiful to watch!
This is such a great example of nit-picking which doesn't come across as mean because she's just as quick to compliment what she likes
Just very sure herself without being snappy or rude
I got shivers watching this rehearsal. The music and the dancers, absolutely beautiful! Bravi!
Idk why it gives me so much second hand serotonin when they compliment them 😂😂 like the “good girl” made me really happy 😂 maybe bc I think they deserve to hear it lol
on a side note, I'm totally digging Darcey's slacks
I was looking at them, too. And the blouse and shoes, work with them. :)
Fumi is out of this world ✨
I saw her dance as Aurora when I was in London, and she was BREATHTAKING. She told the story of Sleeping Beauty so wonderful through her dancing!
That attitude balance, all 4 times was amazing!
Darcey is an amazing coach clear requirements/request and always encouraging....
I love how fluid they can make really hard work look.
ふみさん頑張って!!!日本から応援してます
Cheering from Japan💕💕
Darcy is a fantastic, inspirational coach.
Congrats on Fumi being made principal!!!!
I absolutely love this! Fumi is so talented, Darcey is an amazing coach and I love how they interact with Paul the Pianist. That’s just so great to watch 😍
I just love Fumi she is so elegant and graceful
I LOVE FUMI. She is an angel 💓💓💓💓
This ballerina my goodness - she’s so in control and her balance is INCREDIBLE
What an absolutely beautiful and graceful dancer she is! 🌸
The videos of Fumi dancing are my absolute favourites on this channel!!
I love how there is never any negativity in these comment sections. Just people appreciating the art 🥰
Ballet is such an exquisite form of dance. Fumi is wonderful as is Darcy. This is why she was so wonderful on strictly come dancing.
I love how half of the corrections are actual words, and the other half, they start a sentence, use a hand motion, and everyone knows what they're talking about.
Such a joy to watch these wonderful artists creating magic with all their conviction and heart. Makes me cry with reverence and gratitude watching them. Thank you Royal Ballet!
Why are the guys always so darn gorgeous
Small wonder Aurora couldn't decide on a suitor. The 100-year sleep is for reflection, I suppose.
Fumi is perfect ❤️ Sleeping beauty was my first ballet and Fumi was dancing as Aurora 😍 I just fell in love.
Fumi is an absolutely gorgeous Aurora omg 😻
Fumi is so lovely.
why are these boys so gorgeous
Her balance is just 😱👏👏👏
She was holding herself so well 😭😭😭 I love these videos! They're absolutely stunning!
These dancers are gorgeous. I would love to have a rehearsal with that female coach! She's able to explain the ideas she wants very clearly. It's wonderful
金子ふみさんが ダーシー バッセルさんに指導を受けてることが感慨深いです💕
Fumi is so beautiful!!! She is an amazing dancer
‘It’s more wah than bah’
Thanks for clearing that up for us newbies Darcey 🤣
WOW! The sheer amount of effort and work involved to create a beautiful performance. I am in awe of these ballerinas!
Shout out to the pianist here... Enjoyed music as much as all the rest. Lovely stuff from all these wonderful artists...
So mesmerised to watch the rehearsals - almost as magical as the real performace.
I love the "More creamy". It is so perfect; better than any "technical" word.
This is so beautiful, watching her makes my heart ache a bit as I can't dance how I used to due to a chronic disease. I miss the environment, so I love that we can sort of glimpse what goes on BTS! It's like we're right there watching. Just lovely. 💛
So beautiful to watch the creative process in this. I love hearing the way the instructors talk and sing out the beats
Fumi is gorgeous.She is like a movie star :)
Fumo will be a stunning Aurura! Just lovely.
I'm amazed they can remember all this. I played in an orchestra, and we could make notes on the paper. Anyway, neat to see the learning process.
They probably have 25 years of training under their belt :)
Rose 🌹 Adagio is the most difficult part of the full play.
This dancer has an amazing equilibrium 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Fumi and all the other men are so elegant and attractive
this is beautiful to watch! i have so much respect for these dancers!
Ballet is so soothing and gives peace
I can't imagine being able to move so gracefully
Dear God Fumi's dancing is absolutely stunning
Wow I feel exhausted watching this. Huge admiration to those who do ballet!
I love fumi, she is very graceful
ほんとに綺麗、上品 ふみさん、、✨
I love when TRB post these. I have been watching all day & rewatching some from prior years. I always get such a big smile, watching ballet makes me so happy!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Amazing dancer how she immediately goes “more creamy more creamy” at comando 6:16 that’s what I call good movements quality understanding and mailable interpreter.
What does more creamy mean?
Shini Wang Smoother I’m assuming
Shini Wang More creamy would in this case mean, softer and “legato” and she does it immediately after the suggestion from the coach.
I am obsessed with Fumi. She is a beautiful dancer.
How lovely to see Darcey back at the Royal Ballet.
Fumi dancing is absolutely gorgeous!!!
I'm a conductor, and these coachings inspire me to get the best playing from the orchestra that I can. The greater the performance, the more ways there are to improve it.
a total star!!!! classy, warm, beautiful
Fumi our new principal!🌹🩰
I love how positive they are.
Absolutely charming. Completely delightful
I'm a little bit obsessed with Lukas Bjørneboe Brændsrød he is seriously seriously hot
True
CRIPES ! Astonished at the sheer hard work involved. I like Darcy's gorgeous manners. Still such a fragrant lady. Thank you for this and the wonderful finished performance that followed. The costumes were scintillating. xxxxx
She's wonderful!! I love these rehearsal videos, they're so interesting and fun to watch
Just stunning!
Once again the dancers are AMAZING !! Looove the royal ballet ❤(p.s. Fumi's leotard tho 😍😍)
Those four guys are so gorgeous!
