ABT JKO School | Pre-Professional Upper 3 Exam 🩰

What struck me is how each group in center work was able to move together, as they would be expected to do in a performance. Most of them have probably been in class together for years, so they are already well connected to each other. The dancers and whomever choreographed the class avoided making it seem like a totally dry, academic endeavor. So well done and a pleasure to watch!

Is it a joke? I have started a video from 20:20 to see the middle part as it is the most interesting for me. I saw male dancers were doing Tandu, this exercise was so asynchronous. Everything is at sixes and sevens. 😢

Beautifully trained and performed dear young Ladies and Gentlemen. Brava to the teachers and coaches, and especially the pianist! From Canada.

[@monongahelacats]

These young dancers are amazing! The pianist was fantastic!

Really lovely to watch ❤

[@Snewton12]

Beautiful work!

[@ValTheModel]

Thoroughly enjoyed. Especially the controlled choreography. Gives the illusion that a delusional dancer like me in my head can do these movements.

[@herbertyin7301]

[@AnnieTrvn]

[@poppyc8557]

This is lovely. However - why on earth were the ladies not given skirts? At the teenage levels, I just think is so discourteous of the instructors. I say that as a huge fan of this adjudication panel and as an ABT certified teacher who has nothing but respect for JKO. Not only is it a tiny courtesy but I don't think any of the other major schools have the grad class females in leo only. Just seems odd and an awkward choice.

[@lionsmaine1238]

Vaganova doesn't have skirts anymore in their exams.

[@juliette3597]

@@lionsmaine1238 a poor choice.

[@kate_m_k88]

⁠@@juliette3597 Just out of curiosity, what is it about the leotard and tights only for the exam that is “odd” and “awkward,” exactly?

[@MarijeK]

I feel like skirts are common in pointe class, plain leotards are usually the look. The girls look great, no need to feel awkward about anything!
