We grew up in highschool. Glad to see he stuck with it. Josh discovered his voice in the 10th grade. He chased his dream as I did not know what my path was but to serve my country in time of need when 9/11 happened.

Good god , what a wobble she has....

Я позавчера была на балете «Щелкунчик» в Мариинском театре!

Il love this class!!! Thanks for posting it on KZbin. Even if it is not easy, this is a wonderful beginners class. I only did ballet for 3 years and that was a long time ago but this class is excellent. If you don't get it right the first time (like me), you can always go back and repeat the exercises until you get them better und learn them good. I only repeated the first three exercises at the beginning and then only two and so on. We don't have to look like those young ballerinas, but it's definitely wonderful for our bodies..This is a national ballet and not a ballet class from a ballet school in your town. ❤❤❤❤❤I love short explanations and then the execution. In some classes there is a lot of talking and your feet and body stay cold.

Absolutely perfect. Truly amazing.

Unbelievable. Truly. She is the epitome of everything a ballerina should be. The legs. The feet. They are both wonderful. I love the traditional Petipa choreography but also love their twists on it.

I am in tears. This is so beautiful

❤

whoever the costume designer is deserves a raise or bonus

The best class I had ove you tube less talk more dance. Thank you

😍😍😍😍

I can't believe you actually filmed series of lessons and IT'S FREE. I can't thank you more. I really want to do ballet, but have phobia that makes it very difficult to attend offline classes or at least go outside. So thank you so much for those classes!!

Breathtaking performance !!!

Thank you thank you thank you! These classes bring me such happiness and balance.

Shame on you, Dutch National Opera, for using your legal team to pressure a KZbinr into deleting a legitimate review of your Turandot production. You present yourselves as champions of creativity, but in truth, you’re nothing more than tyrants disguised as artists. Silencing criticism goes against everything art stands for. Instead of pushing boundaries, you’re controlling narratives and stifling genuine dialogue. The hypocrisy is glaring: you demand audiences accept your so-called boldness, yet you cannot tolerate the same courage from your critics. Tyranny has no place in art, and neither should you.

I used to admire Barrie Kosky’s work, but I’m shocked to learn that he used his legal team to force a KZbinr to take down a legitimate review of his Turandot production for Dutch National opera. Shame on you, Barrie Kosky. You claim to push boundaries and challenge audiences, yet you can’t handle a review with mild negative comments? This reveals you as nothing more than a hypocrite, using art to inflate your own ego. Who are you really? And to the Dutch National Opera: when you throw controversial productions at your audience, you claim it’s an expression of creative freedom. Yet you turn around and use legal teams to silence any dissenting voices. Since when did opera become personal property for establishments like yours? This behavior is nothing short of disgusting. You present yourselves as champions of creativity, but in reality, you’re nothing more than tyrants disguised as artists. Silencing criticism is the antithesis of what art stands for.

hi

I admire the work and the inspiration. This said, the voice in this clip sounds like what an opera should not sound like. We need less star singers and more belcanto.

This is way better than the one with millions of views. Other feels very pretentious and sterile, this one has much more life.

Оля это жемчужина для голландского театра

Beginners you say? I beg you, noooooo😂

Looking and sounding fab !’

Well, I was able to do the first two on the left all by myself, but the rest were rewind time. 🤣 I expect as much, I'm a living room dancer these days.

Très belle voix. Une grande émotion.

We thoroughly enjoyed the performance. The perfect antidote for the rather depressing winter weather

4 years later. And still using this as my mid week Nutcracker warm up!

Our outstanding performances in Damsco are prestigious, ook al we rather look than clap. But that doesn't matter, because we are tourists too sometimes.

This is a very good trailer for a fantastic performance by the Dutch Ballet.

Великая музыка русского композитора. Всегда плачу когда слышу эту музыку.

Thank you so much for a wonderful lessons. I’m not a ballerina, but I use to do barre exercises for better control my body and technic. This is kinda hard to control all of part of my body during a barre, but every new day with your lesson I feel how I’m getting stronger. Still only until foundu. For fast frappe I have no power😅 thank you work your class and thank you Mr.Rex for you beautiful music list.

Het was een geweldige ervaring om bij te zijn! Mooi gedanst lieve kleine Clara❤

Beautiful!

Holy smokes what an incredibly handsome conductor… That aside, excited to witness the music!

1:24:58 does anyone know the name of this pianist please?

Please interview the pianist in future, she’s incredible

Maravilloso, lo máximo. Felicitaciones

All gorgeous. May all artists here have fulfilling lives & careers despite the hurdles of the professional world of dance 💗

Great production! Brava

Well-deserved . . . he's a fabulous dancer, the perfect balletic ATHLETE! Bravo!

CHERUBINO Voi che sapete che cosa è amor, donne, vedete s'io l'ho nel cor. Quello ch'io provo vi ridirò, è per me nuovo, capir nol so. Sento un affetto pien di desir, ch'ora è diletto, ch'ora è martir. Gelo e poi sento l'alma avvampar, e in un momento torno a gelar. Ricerco un bene fuori di me, non so chi'l tiene, non so cos'è. Sospiro e gemo senza voler, palpito e tremo senza saper. Non trovo pace notte né dì, ma pur mi piace languir così. Voi che sapete che cosa è amor, donne, vedete s'io l'ho nel cor.
