5 TIPS on ARABESQUE from Mariinsky ballerina Maria Khoreva

[@nicematisse]

My ballet master always said " arms before legs! " over and over! It is a life saver! It helps to complete the line, takes some strain out of the legs, and in general your positions, balances, turns, and jumps are more secure than if the porta bra follows the body. Great video Maria!

you're my absolutely my fav Ballerina Dancer

[@susanshowersinger6793]

Hi Maria! What a privilege for us to receive these helpful tips that you've picked up from your experiences on stage and with your coaches☺️ I like that you describe the tip and also then demonstrate before/after to help us visualize the feeling in one's body while working. I hope you will continue to share more of your secrets with us because you are a gorgeous, talented, and hard-working professional artist❤️❤️❤️

[@brendadufaur37]

It's great to get instruction from Maryinsky coaches! Wow! And of course to get Maria's.

[@emiliamariaturnescu9685]

Спасибо Мария !😊❤ I love your positive vibes ;))

[@katherinebrown4692]

These are great tips,I,m going to think about them when I get back to classes.Thanks so much Maria,for taking the time to do these videos,they're so interesting and informative.

[@CenterforBalletResearch]

Thank you Maria, I love the "pulling up from the elbows" analogy. It changed my arabesque immediately. I felt like I could balance forever. Also I love the "heap" spelling, so cute. Thank you for making me a better dancer and teacher.

[@tracyhuamani3063]

I love you and your channel so much, for me, every single tips that you give us are very very useful, and actually I want to thank you because of sharing your dedication with ballet, teaching and training. I always do your workouts and I adore them absolutely, I'm improving little by little. I hope someday I could be like you, a great ballerina and artist. I love you once again. Always take care, please.

[@michelanaya8943]

Thank you for share your tips!!!🙂

[@theacademy7946]

Thank you so much, can you make more full classical ballet class videos that have barre, center, and pointe work? You are amazing as always.

[@oksimlee]

Thank you for the great tips with clear directions & your personal opinion🙏 will apply the tips when practicing my arabesque. Really appreciate posting this type of videos and other videos, too‼️🩰

[@hanstappendorff6930]

Hi Maria - you gave some useful tips about feeling and going in to arabesque. More importend seem for me, how the dancer prepares the arabsque in stretching the right way: hips 100% square, hip from working leg (not much turnout) down to the floor and flat back muscles (not one sided)….

[@stefanijaserafimova2405]

You are help me a lot and you are an inspiration

[@PettyBlue1]

This was so helpful! Not only I could finally hold balance in attitude, but I could see in the mirror the whole line improving!

[@cammilov8736]

The 'heap' typo made me laugh so hard honestly

[@sarahbb7227]

You are amazing Maria, thank you for the tips:)

[@lilyvandergriff8729]

You are such an inspiration, love watching your videos! Can you maybe do a video on how to darn your pointe shoes!

[@alanibarra7129]

great👏👏👏

[@RockyScience]

Can you do an episode on head positions please? It has not been covered by anyone else. Maybe there’s a reason for it but through I’d throw it out there in case you can (anything you can’t do?!)

[@sandrarachnik]

Perfect, dear Maria !

[@nataliacwik8539]

thank you for this video!!!

[@guadalupe9731]

Maria te amo

[@kristinehaerle4935]

I love to see to you blossom 🌸more and more 💕 you are beautiful 😍❤

[@DestinyHopeLou]

Can you do a video like this on better attitudes? It‘s such a pretty position but mine looks like garbage 😭

[@swampwitchchic]

You are my idol:)

[@andrearomanofitaly4115]

Sarà il viso, sarà il suo sorriso, sarà come si porge verso di noi, ma io sono incredibilmente attratto da Maria ❤️

[@parisahasanzade]

❤❤

[@juliak7586]

Thank you so much! Just wanted to let you know that heap is spelled like hip😉

[@nulafand]

Russian doesn't have the short 'i' sound, that's why it comes out more like 'e'

[@DestinyHopeLou]

@@nulafand it‘s a typo around the 6 minute mark.

[@nulafand]

Oh I see. Thx Destiny.@@DestinyHopeLou

[@hollytilston4989]

Hi Maria, please can you consider a developpè workout?

[@lfior]

Hey Maria, thanks for the video. Just a small correction, it's 'hip' not 'heap' ❤️❤️

[@-vi438]

Hip ❤️

[@ksethi1399]

thank you ,very useful... I think you mean a hip right?

[@nur_mrsl]

Firsttt ❤️❤️❤️

[@gaiabrega1285]

Hello Masha. Could you post your full graduation exam ? Please

[@morrincho6344]

👋👌🙂⚘👸

[@Графоманство]

Мария, спасибо большое за видео. Единственное, нельзя ли убрать фоновую музыку? Вы, наверное, догадываетесь, что для большинства ваших зрителей английский язык не является родным. А говорите вы довольно быстро. В общем улавливать иностранный язык на фоне музыки - это ещё тот челлендж :-)

[@АлександраПаничерская]

Мария, пожалуйста, сделайте Ваши рекомендации и на русском языке. 🤗🌟🌟🌟💐🧚🏼‍♀️❤❤❤

[@yanaavd2080]

Она обычно чуть позже добавляет русские субтитры

[@АлександраПаничерская]

@@yanaavd2080 Спасибо 🌟

[@yanaavd2080]

Ну пока субтитры так и не добавлены..🤔 Что ж, надеюсь скоро будут

[@АлександраПаничерская]

@@yanaavd2080 Живём в России, слушаем английскую речь и читаем субтитры на русском. Парадокс. 😔 А дочка так ждала, что всё-таки будет на русском языке.

[@yanaavd2080]

@@АлександраПаничерская а ведь раньше были видео, где она произносила фразу и на русском, и на английском. Надеюсь, такие видео ещё будут

[@jptenuta]

Supporting heap or supporting hip?

[@leona5543]

Leave her be, English is obviously not her first language.

[@lfior]

@@leona5543 it's a pretty basic word, I'm sure she'd like for it to be correct.

[@jptenuta]

@@leona5543 to be totally fair her English is still way better than my Russian;)

[@nulafand]

@@lfior Russian doesn't have this sound, so they say the closest thing they have. It can be difficult to hear the difference between and 'i' and 'e' for an ESL person.

[@nulafand]

@@leona5543 Yes, her English is really good. She has a good command of colloquial expressions as well. I was quite impressed.

[@SonofRobinson-lo5qo]

Всё хорошо, но белый фон...

[@svigosparis101]

Please make new cardio and Pilates!!!

[@brendaannedufaur6244]

I love your channel but please do a normal, real life background, not a super-imposed white one. With black tights I can't see the leg muscles and also the blacks tights cut off at the bottom and chop off the line. These things makes it harder and less beautiful to look at your valuable videos. Thank you.
