BALLET STRETCHING - stretch FULL BODY with ballerina Maria Khoreva (MARIINSKY Theatre)

[@aris.s1s]

Finally a stretching video that’s actually challenging

[@betterthantheworst]

One thing I know for sure: Your videos will last the test of time. Lots of other ballet videos and ballerinas on youtube. But in 100 years from now, people will be watching yours, still - not anyone else's. Your technique and discipline and care and kindness is timeless.

[@ojj3340]

Such a rude comment. Plenty of amazing ballet dancers whose videos are absolutely perfect and will (are) standing the test of time.

[@bastnnh]

Straight back has been the most useful hack. I had been stretching kind of regularly bending forward as far as I could without noticeable improvements. Today I tried this way and Lord... I'm already noticing! Thanks so much for your patience and help 🙏🏼

[@japanimesekai3985]

I feel so blessed that I get to “train” with such a wonderful, real, beautiful ballerina like you. This would have been unheard of a decade ago. I sure wish we’d had this gift when I was growing up! I could have maybe been almost as good as you if I’d had these videos to watch after my classes! LOL, I’ll keep trying with your encouragement. I love your videos and look forward to improving. Thank you, Maria!

[@marialuzmaytorena7095]

Thank you so much, I am 61 and I did great 🤸‍♀️🤸‍♀️

[@sandramarmon8278]

[@darkwavekid]

Im pretty flexible for someone who isn't in any sort of sport, dance, or anything like that so this is very very helpful because i have been wanting to learn newer/advanced stretches & let me just say this is perfect! Really felt my whole body get a good stretch!

[@Luxiferah]

Me, a-not-so-flexible-not-so-professional-dancer following along: Can I just wake up flexible one day.... please? 🥺

[@xitraiagalubitchka9006]

No

[@kjs.gab.]

I feel ya haha after 14 years of ballett i still cant do a split ':)

[@astrologybabe9851]

I hate how I was so flexible, did ballet and all...and now I’m as stiff as a board. I wanna do ballet again so I gotta get back flexible😭FUCK

[@balletemz5044]

I want to thank you so much for sharing your dedication and your talent to this art form and I appreciate your time making his videos. congratulations on being able to go back to the theather and performing💐. thank you

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!! I am currently super obsessed with the Mariinsky Ballet, Russian Technique, and your dancing.

[@ayakrantz5478]

I love your dancing as well Maria!!! I am soooo happy when you post new videos!

[@montserratbenitez7704]

Hi, Maria, I'm a big fan of yours. You have the most beautiful lines I ever seen. And I really appreciate what you're doing for the dance community during this difficult times. I love your videos and I will love if one of this days you would be able to do a video to improve balance. Thanks for everything

[@englishfollowsyou]

This is one of the best videos on splits I've seen so far on KZbin.

[@larissapusejkina8240]

Мария, спасибо! Очень полезные растяжки и Ваши комментарии к деталям, касающимся их исполнения. Все каждый день не получается делать, но частично - да!

[@designfromrio]

This is one of my favorite routines, I do it every day! Thank you Maria ❤️

[@Its_me_hi_im_always_hungry]

Best stretching video I have ever done, actually works and I feel like it will get me in deeper splits! Thank you so much for this video!! ❤️❤️

[@LittleMissHoop]

YESSSS! A stretching video- exactly what I was wishing for from you. Thank you Maria!

[@PettyBlue1]

Swapped my usual stretching routine for this one. So many new stretches! Feels like I'm learning my body anew

[@jackiejaclynpowell5261]

Great work outs! Thank you! I'm glad to see @Nke backing you. Athletes should know how difficult ballet is.

[@GloriaGalanGalan-gh9wm]

My first practice with you and I really like It. Thanks for sharing this video.❤😊

[@ayakrantz5478]

Maria Khoreva you are an amazing human being! Your videos make me so happy! Thanks so much! Could you please consider making a ankle strengthening video! Stay safe! :)

[@monicaasua9878]

Your videos have been a life saver. Thank you so much. 😊😊

[@dasakoprivnik455]

Can you do a workout for strengthening knees and ankles please?

[@ndjdjd887]

how would you like to strengthen a bone?xD

[@madisonmorris7394]

@@ndjdjd887 it's to strengthen the tendons around the ankle so that muscle or bone damage is less likely to occur. My ankles are extremely weak so I focus on exercises that help me not sprain them.

[@alanibarra7129]

your exercises and stretches are excellent and great

[@faithandrenaissance3984]

Thank you so much for this video Maria! We have been waiting for this awesome stretching video! Hooray! Thanks again! Sending hugs from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺 🤗💙🙏🤗

[@alexlannan5714]

Thank you for sharing your stretching routine with us!

[@АйгеримТабылдыева-м7п]

Может снимете видео про стопы. Как разработать подъем и укрепить столпы

[@misoginainternalizadaopres7131]

I love this, you don't see these stretches everywhere

[@theidiosyncraticsisters964]

Hi Maria, I love your workout videos and stretches - they really help push me to improve my flexibility. Would you consider doing a video on front developpes?

[@marienovel4391]

I love love your stretching routine🥺💕

[@BlijVrouw]

Thank you for these awesome stretching videos. Wishing you have a swift recovery!

[@remediosmataix6707]

Thank you, María. You are wonderful. Una maravilla.

[@la_pirata_la_perla_negra]

Thanks so much for these videos 🥰🥰🥰 best exercises❤️🙏🏼🥰

[@privat4462]

I really love this one! Thank you so much for sharing all your tips with the world

[@elizavetakurkina4412]

Вы идеально сидите на поперечном шпагате 😍 А есть ли какие-нибудь упражнения именно для поперечного шпагата? (Кроме провиса и различных лягушек)

[@violettas.5402]

Another great workout!Thank you so much Maria.I'd love to make a suggestion.If you would find this easier,you could just record the video and then voice over it in Russian and English so that you won't have to explain twice,and also it will be a whole English video and a whole Russian not a mixed one.Of course this is just a kind suggestion, just in case it seems easier for you.your videos are always amazing no matter what!Lots of love!

[@vickyk1861]

Or you could have recorded in Russian with English subtitles (or vice versa)

[@violettas.5402]

@@vickyk1861 Yes,thats right.I think that putting subtitles takes more time and effort though,although im not sure

[@SarahFieldsenpointe]

Yes and it’s really nice to be able to do the stretches without trying to read subtitles at the same time! I love the way she does it now, but I just like to listen to her speaking both languages haha

[@rociomurcia7874]

Could you do a video about your day? I love you 🥰

[@iharpadbiarezski1279]

We love you too! ❤️ Thanks for the videos! 🙃

[@ChanyeolDelight]

Thank you so much for these videos, these videos really do help a lot!

[@adamkozowski7510]

[@ameliagreg6566]

I’ve been anticipating this video for so long

[@jamjalll]

Very good exercises ! Thanks very much !!!

[@isabellagodinho8910]

such an amazing stretch thank you so much!!!!

[@fabianobispo8110]

Thank you Maria. I’d like to ask one question though. The period of time that stayed in one stretch position is the amount of time you usually do it? Or you tried to make it faster for a shorter video? If so, how long would say you stay in each position?

[@mariaruizcanivell4596]

Thank you so much

[@alexandraundevi5352]

Thank you so much I really love your videos. Спасибо 🌹

[@kristynablahova4694]

Thank you so much for this video!!! It is very very very helpfull. 😍👌💕

[@zixiong681]

This was an amazing video and I feel super stretched out now! I do have a small question... 9:25 during this stretch somehow I can't get my back leg to touch the ground, even though my knee can. I can see that Maria has her femur bone/thighs slightly off the floor, but my leg is a long way to the ground (around 7 to 10 centimeters). Is it because I have an inflexible hip flexor and how can I improve that?? thanks so much!!

[@ozlem7932]

stretch out your hip flexor in a half-split / lunge ! bend your front knee at a 90 degree angle and extend your back leg straight behind you and "lean" into the ground by pushing your (whatever leg is back) butt/hip forward. look up any splits-stretch video and itll give you an example of what i'm trying to say :) itll help with that! also stretch your quads

[@marquisevirginie]

Thank you for your uploads

[@dasha8619]

Здравствуйте, Мария можете снять видео как сесть на поперечный шпагат?😘🥺💕✨

[@judithmcminn863]

Thank you so very much 💕

[@АлександрЛихов-о4в]

Мария, здравствуйте. Как вы считаете, за сколько до выхода на сцену (или отдельного танца, вариации) надо разминаться? Точнее, как именно вам лучше? Было ли у вас такое, что после разогрева, разминки, слишком долго простаивали, начинали охладевать, и из-за этого не получалось, например, сделать движение в ту амплитуду, в которую хотелось бы, или зафиксировать четко позу, или вследствие простоя теряли в эмоциональном плане, настрое? Спасибо.

[@iris_nrd4703]

So good vidéo ! Thank you so much !❤

[@LCNWA]

Maria, you can turn on translator on the three dots in upper right side of you tube so you don't have to repeat what you have just done for those of us that aren't bilingual.

[@SarahFieldsenpointe]

I love hearing her speak in English and Russian, though!

[@CatherineeeL]

I hope you never greed and get instagram adds because it’s so nice to do this without gaps lol

What's Russian for "beautifully bendy"?

Oh this is really hard!!! 💪💪Did my best but I am a gym dude Hahah! So I was not even close! 😅

[@tiffany51793]

amazing Maria , love from HOng Kong 😘😘

[@yuonhee]

I’m all for bilingual learning but it would be nice if you made 2 videos 1 in Native tongue and 1 in English. Would be easier for both of us. But I want you to know I encourage you teaching both of us. ❤️

[@adhirajtyagi4018]

Me, who-struggles-to-touch-feet-without-bending-knees This is the workout for me.

[@ЕЛЕНАВРВРАОР]

Какой шикарный английский. Можно учить по вашим видео. )) Если растяжкой можно овладеть, то таким английским никак ... Эх(((

Thankkkk youuuu❤️❤️

[@yaprakcelebi3172]

i really wonder, how can i be able to make those movements in the video🥺😭

[@queurilenz9315]

Very good 🇧🇷

[@JorgeRamos-xw6dy]

Beautiful flexibility. Her English is great and I assume her Russian is even better. Thank you for posting.

[@Crysalt07]

can you do some leg tone exercises :(( my left leg is a bit skinny than my right leg, does that i mean i should do a lot more on my right and do less on my left?

[@fifipuffball5000]

Hello! I know this is super late and you probably figured it out but I think when doing ballet it is better to exercise both sides evenly. I notice that the body eventually becomes more symmetrical, though I don't know why!

[@psychodanstudy]

Супер! Я правда так не могу но супер!

[@SofoMavou]

necessary stretching workout

[@auroralewis9199]

I literally did the splits after doing this once
