Our new channel - clck.ru/ENQ3Y - ballet technique step by step bolshoiacademy.... Partnering, Pas de deux exam in Bolshoi Ballet Academy after one year studying. BALLET
For those of you thinking this is easy: you're DEAD WRONG. I dance with a boy in my ballet class, and let me just tell you, it's a crap ton of work. Even doing something as simple as a grand jete lift is hard. and speaking for the female dancers out there, if not done correctly, lifts can make your ribs hurt like hell. what i'm dealing with right now, as a matter of fact.
Wow people can say all they want about male ballet dancers but they have to be really strong to lift those girls up like that! They make it look like the girls weigh just as much as a feather.
it is clearly visible that the dancers have to fight hard to get the ballerina's back to the floor. Without the male dancers all the ballerina's would fly away, and the art of ballet would never have existed.
Ilya....your videos are brilliant..the music...the intense interest you have for your students is amazing...they are lucky to have you! It is joyous to watch their growth as young men and dancers.....never stop!
Well, they have to be naturally thin because these poor boys/men have to lift these girls/women over their heads sometimes as dead weight. So, we don't really want the poor boys/men to injure themself, now... do we? Yes, they do have to be thin but as you can see they are extremly strong, flexible and amazingly disciplined.
Maddie Fishblob I realise its easier if you've known the person for a while. I didnt get that luxury. My first pas class was with someone whom I'd met an hour prior
I always have the biggest smile on my face while watching your videos. The Bolshoi Academy seems like such a nurturing environment for these young dancers, unlike the other Russian school such as Perm and the Kirov. They both produce beautiful dancers and the technical training is wonderful (my former ballet master was trained at the Kirov and later danced with them), but the Bolshoi kids seem to truly love where they are and what they are doing. It's a breath of fresh air to see that joy. ^.^
I wish I had the opportunity to study ballet there...if my daughter loves to dance too I'll move t Russia t give her the opportunity to learn ballet in one of those big academies in Russia...
Beautiful -- It's wonderful to see how easily they pass through the moments of great exertion, with no distortion in the boy's case of the rib-cage or shoulders, and in the girls' offacial expressoin carriage of hte head, line of hte arms....there's great mutual care, but the expression of it is kept classical and serene, reserved -- it's in the attention to centering and breath. THe boys have good hands - -and so do the girls. Congratulations.
Ilya, I really like the editing and your angles in this video. You have a really discerning eye behind the camera for capturing the essence of dance and the work that goes into creating a finished product. The interviews with the boys at the end was a nice touch. They gave a "human factor" to the process. :)
Beautiful video. The teaching of this kind of discipline to young people while giving them a chance to express some of their own artistic ideas is an outstanding exercise in freedom!
If you don't mind me asking, what camera was used to film this? (make/model) Thank you. Your dancers are lovely and have inspired me to get back into ballet.
Beautiful! Your filming is getting better and better - you have a real talent for film-making! I also think your love for teaching and interest in your students development comes through in your filming - bravo! ...and thanks for sharing. Everyone of your posts is a special moment.
Yea they eat. They are just small because they dance a lot which burns off the calories. If they didn't eat they would get sick/pass out because they are using up energy. So, food helps them refuel.
Well, you are right, but I never come to this video, so I don't know how this is happened, but it is strange. Not bad to mean, but I find Ballet boring so I don't even know why I would click this video, very strange
they can dance very good, but why are all those girls so thin? it's a shame to see how thin they are do they need to be so skin to doing ballet? they are all very good in dancing!

So true!

I was just thinking that! Everyone in this video is SO attractive :)
Потрясающе!!! (А пианист какой!!!!!)
They are becoming so very, very good. Ilya, you are doing a spendid job with these young people. As usual. :)
Thanks for posting this. Especially loved the music you used to go with it ! That was a good match :-)
I was so entranced I didn't notice it was 'Yesterday' until midway.
I still love ballet, after all.

Betty Boop I’m fat

Bruh The girl will plié deeper to help him out and stuff like that so he DOESN'T have to dead press her.
I took my first paux de deux class yesterday, and I sucked 😏
Maddie Fishblob I realise its easier if you've known the person for a while. I didnt get that luxury. My first pas class was with someone whom I'd met an hour prior
Sucking is better than not being able to do it isn't it ?:-)
dang. Those boys are strong! All while making their partner look so graceful.
wow.. how i wish i was a ballerina.. haha..

This was a very beautiful montage. Thanks for posting it. Beautiful teaching, too.
The guy at 5:32 is really cute:)
Ilya, you are a true artisat in so many ways..........thank you for this.
beautiful! how old are these students?
The way these boys touch their girls - it's amazing :O

Me watching this 10 year’s later. I mean I was like 3 when this got posted.
It's an exam. It's not about expression it's about technique.

yea dance
God bless those kids. They truly have gifts.
Beautiful video. The teaching of this kind of discipline to young people while giving them a chance to express some of their own artistic ideas is an outstanding exercise in freedom!
It's probably after one year of partnering and many years of ballet.
All of the boys at the end are so sweet. :)
Beautiful. Youth at it's strongest and most graceful.
Ilya Sergeevich Kolotov!! I think he is cute
What if they dont pass?
очень здорово...ещё бы малышей на экзаменах наснимали бы
stone good
If they are in their 6th year, they are around 15-16 years old. :) The way I understand it, they have 2 more years of ballet study at the Bolshoi.
If you don't mind me asking, what camera was used to film this? (make/model) Thank you. Your dancers are lovely and have inspired me to get back into ballet.

There’s only one boy at my studio :(
Beautiful video of ballet practice!!!!!*****
Thank you!
They're so good! Great editing, too, love the shots with the hands and from the back. Music choice is excellent; what is the name of the piece?
That's because it is Yesterday from the Beatles ^^.

La cansion del piano , me la podria pasar la musica :( xfa
Es una versión de Yesterday - The Beatles para piano. No sé donde podrás encontrarla, pero la original es mejor.
Wrong music!
it is not the music that accompanies the dance, it accompanies the montage.
they don't eat it in ballet?
Not much
Yea they eat. They are just small because they dance a lot which burns off the calories. If they didn't eat they would get sick/pass out because they are using up energy. So, food helps them refuel.
Well, you are right, but I never come to this video, so I don't know how this is happened, but it is strange. Not bad to mean, but I find Ballet boring so I don't even know why I would click this video, very strange
Jajaja 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
they can dance very good, but why are all those girls so thin? it's a shame to see how thin they are do they need to be so skin to doing ballet? they are all very good in dancing!
