Svetlana is special to me. She is the one who makes me fall in love with Ballet. Before I watched her dance, I never imagined that there could be such beautiful creatures in the world. She never exaggerates her emotions, and I guess that's why people say she is a boring cold dancer. But Zakharova really gives me something that no other ballerinas could give me. That's all I want to say.
No people don’t like her because her forms are too perfect and they like a bit more free form and more flexible movements which would make it more exciting (think about break dancing). But she’s a fantastic actress who always becomes the character. A true artist.
i dont mean to be off topic but does anyone know of a method to get back into an instagram account..? I stupidly forgot the account password. I love any assistance you can give me.
I saw her last year in Carmen Suite, a live broadcast direct from Moscow (Bolshoi) in Pathe Cinema in The Hague. It was honesty breathtaking. There is so much soul and beauty in her dancing, way beyond her perfection. Svetlana Zakharova, a genius for sure.
You summed it up perfectly. She is the best of them all, past and present. Truly a model for the future. Aren't we all lucky she existed during our lifetime?
she's one of the rare cases where you can clearly tell that besides all the hard work every ballerina goes through, there's also a naural talent and predisposition that make her one of a kind.
There is a pretty good chance that she has worked a lot more than any of us have in a couple months than in our entire life. It is really hard on your toes and feet if you have to put a lot of weight on them. What she does is absolutely amazing and takes a lot more work than it seems. Her beautiful dancing and strong body is hard to achieve and shows how hard she has worked to become such a poised and wonderful ballerina.
You are a picture of Elegance & Grace! Thank you for giving yourself to the Arts, It is truly blessed to have you! Blessings & Peace be with you. I will watch you with great Anticipation of your next projects!
this is such a beautiful video. Svetlana unadorned, in all her simplicity and awe. I used to think she is an ice queen sometimes, but i could clearly see in this video, how she emotes the music. Lovely. Lovely arms, and body, epaulement. Everything. Thanks for sharing.
she is gorgeous, she is just very tall and lean, and since ya'll aren't her doctors don't make comments that she needs to gain weight. for all you know, she is at the perfect bodyweight for her personal type. feel free to contradict me if you're actually svetlana's personal doctor...
Her feet are just amazing....I really look up to her as a ballet dancer.her arms , her legs, her form...just everything about her is elegance at its finest.
Dancers are always like whippets - the demands of a dancer at this level exceed that of an athlete in my view. What these men and women do is phenomenal, breathtaking, and a joy to watch.
oh shut up! the woman is a frame the russian school looks for in the petite bone frame and elasticity of the limbs...further, the hours of her constant classes, rehearsals, and performance is tremendous not to mention the pressure to be her performance best with all love for the art...also, there are those who have a metabolic rate that is very high...the eventual lines you all are seeing is the elongation of the muscles over the years of training. NOW look at her control...that is technique over the years mastered and still perfected....enjoy the ballet!
Jheezus, everyone's a critic. I am so sick of armchair quarterbacks on youtube..Ballerinas are too skinny? Really? R U Fucking Serious??..I suppose you also think that NBA players are too tall, NFL linemen are to big, body builders too muscular, gymnasts too small...it is only at the intersection of talent, genetics, good training, dedication and perseverance that world class performance can be achieved...since you were too busy criticizing her weight instead of appreciating the video, you didn't notice how this woman is a world class ballerina, one of the greatest of our generation.
Bahaha! Armchair quarterbacks, I haven't heard that before, made me laugh. You hit the nail right on the head, you don't have to be a certain size, weight or shape to be healthy OR beautiful. Dayum.
Remember, too, that some body types are naturally very slim; and life as a ballet dancer is like being on a treadmill constantly. Also, with your core, you're constantly pulling in and up, sort of like if you breath your stomach in to the fullest your ribs will show, except that for a dancer this is mainly used on the muscles rather than the skin, but it has the same effect. To be professional, you have to be healthy. Unhealthy bodies mean crushed careers, and Svetlana's career is in full bloom.
Breathtaking!!! Great technique, great expression, a true profesional all the way! Zahkarova is a referet worldwide Watch minute 3_20... Perfection is there. Thank you for this opportunity to see real ballet.
Svetlana è perfetta e mi ha sempre emozionato. La sua silhouette è perfetta da sempre, le sue scapole perfettamente aderenti al corpo costale......brava sempre.
This one is fun to watch. She really hears the music. Or something. I know too little about ballet to know what, but she isn't mechanical. She is fun to watch.
I think you're absolutely correct. The world is a different place. What amazes me are the people who watch Svetlana and nitpick little things, and ignore the beauty and grace of the whole ballerina.
In my private folder i have one called What i want to be and under almost all of Svetlanas videos and dances are there. I wish to be know as such a wonderful and beautiful dancer like svetlana...
Thank you, just lovely. I’ve subscribed and look forward to more videos. On anyone! I love rehearses. Even though these dancers are professionals they take their criticism ( if that’s the word) so in the spirit it is given. All for the dance. 🩰🩰🩰👵👵👵🇦🇺🇦🇺
@TheMattsPath I agree with you very much she has muscle to replace from being skinny. Because she has a a strong body eating and other things won't affect her body as much.
I'm sure that had Svetlana been around in Pavolva's day, she would have been a legend also. People would travel thousands of miles to see her. The same applied to Caruso. Everyone knew of these people. Also, as mentioned ballet itself is not as popular as it was in Pavlova's time. I would not dare say who was better - Pavlova or Zakharova. Pavlova was lucky. She was born at the right time.
She seems both more ethereal and more human since she had a child, although that sounds like a contradiction. She is very thin, though. Such an incredible dancer. I feel privileged to see her on video since I will never get to see her live. Sublime!
She is absolute consumate perfection in terms of technic, and her expressivity has improved a lot (although I've never saw her live). Very skinny indeed, but I'd say it's impossible for her to be anorexic. Anorexic women are so fragile and weak that they can hardly walk for 15mins. Svetlana would be dead if she was any short of Ana/Mia. I mean she's all day, every day in rehearsals, performances, travels... I bet she eats a lot actually. Her body type is one of these girls who may eat Big Mac every day without putting on any weight. Her extremely long legs and arms also contribute to the image of a super skinny ballerina. But hey, if she wasn't healthy she wouldn't have become a mother. She's beautiful.
+jetsat100 you keep making this anorexic comments about every Zakharova videos here on YT yet you cant seem to stop watching her. Stop judging someone you've never seen live onstage. Idiot.
people who had been a follower of ballet knows that the art form will forever be subjected to health particularly in weight. but did it also occur to you or had the slightest idea that the dancer's figure particularly in russia is involved through discipline and hardwork? again you cant dance and entire 3-hour performance without the strength of an athlete needed. Or do you also *ignore* this facts? Hypocrite.
Ahhhh, Pavlova! I have an issue of 'Dance Magazine' from January 1976 (very yellowed) where she is the cover subject of a special issue devoted to her. "Anna Pavlova Aspects of a Legend". Fascinating pictures and read. That's why I've saved it all these years.
she is not anorexic...far from it.....she has a lean beautiful ballerina body....ballerinas works is very athletic, and precise, and requires an amazing strength to be able to achieve that level of dancing, actually she is probably eating alot, otherwise she would not be able to dance at all...
Svetlana is special to me. She is the one who makes me fall in love with Ballet. Before I watched her dance, I never imagined that there could be such beautiful creatures in the world. She never exaggerates her emotions, and I guess that's why people say she is a boring cold dancer. But Zakharova really gives me something that no other ballerinas could give me. That's all I want to say.
+Jingshu Cai I consider your statement very insightful. Svetlana was the one who taught me to love ballet.
Her dancing is at times otherworldly..
No people don’t like her because her forms are too perfect and they like a bit more free form and more flexible movements which would make it more exciting (think about break dancing). But she’s a fantastic actress who always becomes the character. A true artist.
She is the only ballerina that puts a smile on my face every time I watch her dance. She gives me joy and just like you made me love ballet.
Su tecnica es perfecta elastisidad al bailar porte gracia la mejor del mundo
i dont mean to be off topic but does anyone know of a method to get back into an instagram account..?
I stupidly forgot the account password. I love any assistance you can give me.
She's so perfect I could cry. Perfect hyperextension, turnout, arch, everything kill me now
I saw her last year in Carmen Suite, a live broadcast direct from Moscow (Bolshoi) in Pathe Cinema in The Hague. It was honesty breathtaking. There is so much soul and beauty in her dancing, way beyond her perfection. Svetlana Zakharova, a genius for sure.
Even in rehearsal togs and without the stage makeup, Sveta is one beautiful woman, and her dance work is electrifying. Thanks for posting .
You summed it up perfectly. She is the best of them all, past and present. Truly a model for the future. Aren't we all lucky she existed during our lifetime?
Очень повезло
It's frightening how good she is. It's absolutely terrifying. Just watching her, I can feel the emotions she shows through
She is like a doll. Absolute perfection.
she's one of the rare cases where you can clearly tell that besides all the hard work every ballerina goes through, there's also a naural talent and predisposition that make her one of a kind.
There is a pretty good chance that she has worked a lot more than any of us have in a couple months than in our entire life.

Her beautiful dancing and strong body is hard to achieve and shows how hard she has worked to become such a poised and wonderful ballerina.
Having tried pointe work, it's hard on your *ankles* (more than toes...). It takes *a lot* of strength and flexibility in your ankles.
She's a great talent, just adore her grace in every movement. Love her!
You are a picture of Elegance & Grace! Thank you for giving yourself to the Arts, It is truly blessed to have you! Blessings & Peace be with you. I will watch you with great Anticipation of your next projects!
Breathtaking, she's an angel
this is such a beautiful video. Svetlana unadorned, in all her simplicity and awe. I used to think she is an ice queen sometimes, but i could clearly see in this video, how she emotes the music. Lovely. Lovely arms, and body, epaulement. Everything. Thanks for sharing.
Светлана- прелесть!! Любоваться можно бесконечно..
Arrhhh, I love Svetlana's arms so much. She makes such beautiful lines with them, so so so graceful.
she is gorgeous, she is just very tall and lean, and since ya'll aren't her doctors don't make comments that she needs to gain weight. for all you know, she is at the perfect bodyweight for her personal type. feel free to contradict me if you're actually svetlana's personal doctor...
She's really perfect... I love Svetlana 😍🤩🇷🇺
The perfect, ideal, sublime, otherwordly, Born to dance ballerina
She has "IT" all.
She is beyond words......
Her feet are just amazing....I really look up to her as a ballet dancer.her arms , her legs, her form...just everything about her is elegance at its finest.
A huge artist!!!i have nothing more to say!
Dancers are always like whippets - the demands of a dancer at this level exceed that of an athlete in my view. What these men and women do is phenomenal, breathtaking, and a joy to watch.
I loved Balakov's choreography, expressive, romantic! About Zakarova, surely she is one of the greatest in dance history!
Svetlana is the most generous dancer
There are no words for this......💖💖💖💕💕👐👐🌹🌹🌹. Seeing this, my tears don't want to stop. Thank you
She is absolutely great! I love her, my favorite ballerina of all times.
Beyond perfection, could watch for ever.
wow. i love this dancer. she is definitely my favorite. being a dancer myself i have so much respect for her
Amazing! Such a graceful dancer
Красавица!!!😍

great video of the best ballerina in the world!
Обожаю Светлану Захарову, вам бы всем так выглядеть диванным комментаторам.
when I was 19 I saw her dancing and inspired me to take classes, I have a similar build but of course, i am not a pro ballerina.
beyond perfection
She's just perfect
This one is fun to watch. She really hears the music. Or something. I know too little about ballet to know what, but she isn't mechanical. She is fun to watch.
she will never fail to amaze me
I think you're absolutely correct. The world is a different place. What amazes me are the people who watch Svetlana and nitpick little things, and ignore the beauty and grace of the whole ballerina.
She is perfect
Kudos to the piano player, as well!
In my private folder i have one called What i want to be and under almost all of Svetlanas videos and dances are there. I wish to be know as such a wonderful and beautiful dancer

Oh, those arms at 3:23!
Relax guys! All of a sudden everyone in the comments are expert nutritionists. I’m 💯 % familiar with the ballet world and her body is totally fine.
Волшебная красота
She is truly incredible.
Thank you, just lovely. I’ve subscribed and look forward to more videos. On anyone! I love rehearses. Even though these dancers are professionals they take their criticism ( if that’s the word) so in the spirit it is given. All for the dance. 🩰🩰🩰👵👵👵🇦🇺🇦🇺
Beautiful, Svetlana!

she is the perfection of ballet
I'm sure that had Svetlana been around in Pavolva's day, she would have been a legend also. People would travel thousands of miles to see her. The same applied to Caruso. Everyone knew of these people. Also, as mentioned ballet itself is not as popular as it was in Pavlova's time. I would not dare say who was better - Pavlova or Zakharova. Pavlova was lucky.

She is stunning...

greatest❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks so much- hope you have a lot of things to post! She is as perfect a ballerina as I have ever seen!!

I love this comment. I hate it when people say she is anorexic.
dont know ,i saw woman with eating desorder become mother,.the dancers i know they eat ,but poorly
+jetsat100 you keep making this anorexic comments about every Zakharova videos here on YT yet you cant seem to stop watching her. Stop judging someone you've never seen live onstage. Idiot.
So you.As you see other ppl think the same.the ballettfield ignore the Facts,and it seems they are even rude...
people who had been a follower of ballet knows that the art form will forever be subjected to health particularly in weight. but did it also occur to you or had the slightest idea that the dancer's figure particularly in russia is involved through discipline and hardwork? again you cant dance and entire 3-hour performance without the strength of an athlete needed. Or do you also *ignore* this facts? Hypocrite.
Perfection comes after her name. Loved her
Svetlana you're in my heart ❤️❤️ i love you so much. One day i will meet you
I love her. I just love her.
Yes, I have come across the whole era thing ever since I commented haha thanks.
Ahhhh, Pavlova! I have an issue of 'Dance Magazine' from January 1976 (very yellowed) where she is the cover subject of a special issue devoted to her. "Anna Pavlova Aspects of a Legend". Fascinating pictures and read. That's why I've saved it all these years.
Incantevole e bellissima....Seconda solo alla Fracci!!!

couldn't have said it better myself!
Ballet is such a great art
she is not anorexic...far from it.....she has a lean beautiful ballerina body....ballerinas works is very athletic, and precise, and requires an amazing strength to be able to achieve that level of dancing, actually she is probably eating alot, otherwise she would not be able to dance at all...
but she looks anorexic and sick
id k,she is too thin looks not good,i looking always her bones ha ha,but if ppl like that so i cant change.looks like 12 years old.And no Emotion.
