World Ballet Day 2019 LIVE class with the Bayerisches Staatsballett

[@normamimosa5991]

Instructor gives a great class. Includes all steps with sufficient difficulty without overcomplicating combinations. Opportunity to perfect basic steps. Must add that the pianist was also amazing.

[@avesraggiana]

I just followed along as they were taking barre just now, using the back of a chair. This ballet mistress wants to kill us! You’re correct, basic steps, but difficult to do correctly, and very, very taxing.

[@user-um4bb6mo7j]

The teacher speaks in a firm and clear voice. Also I can tell she cares each of the individual dancer. I wish I could take her class!

[@michakj4994]

I am fortunate guy who feels and admires the beauty of dance including classic ballet, but I cannot manage to dance. The love for dance offered me Irish dancers especially Julia Butler. As ballet is concerned I owe my admiration to this sort of dancing to Natalia O. The first ballerina I felt in love for her artistic performances. She remains my love nowadays, and I will love for ever. It will stay so as long as the Moon shines in the sky. There are many fantastic ballerinas coming from the Russian school of ballet. The list is long today, and it is also long if the check is done through centuries. The Cuban ballerinas V. , and a ballerina from Ucrainan city of Oddesa Anastasia M. are at the highest floor of my areopag. Hopfully I will soon find another goddess of ballet after have watched this class. Who will it be? Another task is to find male masters of ballet.

[@Cccccc-Love]

How can I contact the teacher? I also want to learn from him

[@aiyyoi]

I love that teacher who keeps drilling back into the bread and butter of the techniques in all her exercises!

[@carmen9330]

Oh my! This class is an example how to build strenght.. lovely teacher, good dancers.

[@marilivenditti5339]

Congratulations, beautiful company, very competent teacher, talented dancers.

So cool ! I remember Yana as a child , living in the one room apartment with her mom in Leningrad ! Bravo Yana!

[@veronikajungblut3320]

Beautiful class and corrections. All dancers are very strong and know how to work their body really well! A huge respect from my side. I love to see this company dance!

[@BalletmusicDK]

SO inspiring to watch this class! Great teaching and a wonderful pianist too! Thank you for sharing!

[@annaschleussner3276]

I think it's a bit funny that even in a professional class the teacher needs to tell dancers to come closer during center exercises 😂😊

[@freakviewall]

It's also for sure because of the camera, so they maybe got a bit more shy because of this ;P

[@chachak8978]

Probably because the whole class has one tempo and they're over it.

[@valiantmar]

Beautiful dancers and Yana Zelensky gives an Awesome class Wow!!!!!!

[@unsubscribeiusedtoplaymsp3181]

Surprised to see how many dancers take barre in company class en pointe

[@ningzhou]

I was wondering about that too. Is it just a company habit or?

[@sonjaBenoit]

It's a very "American Ballet" Balanchine thing. Ladies do the whole barre en pointe.

[@ayna2384]

Ning Zhou They always perform with pointe shoes on stage. By wearing pointe shoes in class, they get more comfortable with the shoes. It’s also important for jumps on stage because it feels very different when you jump with flats. You can also break your shoes in by wearing them in class and your feet will become much stronger! Hope this helps 🩰

[@cameronjohn9590]

she really seems like a wonderful teacher!

[@WeShareTheSameAffliction]

What an amazing class, love the teachers energy and corrections. "Organize your arms!!!" 😂

[@Dima.Demidov]

Oh my God! Osiel is brilliant as usual!

[@Dima.Demidov]

Osiel Gouneo is terrific as usual :)

[@PalacinkyPDX]

I love how Ms. Zelensky focuses on the linking steps, complex footwook and precision instead of just jumping, jumping and more jumping. Truly an inspirational teacher.

[@paulybarr]

But all company classes are based on this model- they start with warming up the feet at the bar, and gradually the whole body- that's why the leaps ( particularly for the men) don't come until the end of class. This structure is the same through out the world. Check out the Royal Ballet's company class on World Ballet Day, especially last year's ( 2018) with Olga. They're the best company in the world and also have phenomenally good pianists.

[@hanserwin5111]

Would also say: very calm instructor, focused on work, also the Pointe work was Great... No yelling.... But Some praise! If we had only such great teachers in the Ballett world... Scandals like Wien and also Berlin wouldn't exist! Good night...

[@dr.katherinemezurphd6257]

I love this class. after Tamara Rojo's barre I switch over to this center. Ah inside in California is brighter with this extraordinary teacher, pianist, and dancers. Thank you. Please put more of these earlier classes online? We have until June here before we can even start to be in studios again. Katherine

[@dr.katherinemezurphd6257]

[@ericaleonardi6620]

@@CarlosReyes-kp3zz why do you think the class was bad?

Agreed on the black shirt ballerina! I believe she is Prisca Zeisel who is a principal dancer. It is a great class!!!

[@noopy99]

Carlos Reyes why do you think the class is bad?

[@avesraggiana]

@@CarlosReyes-kp3zz I don’t think it’s a bad class. It’s not a bad class at all, it’s a BRUTAL class! Definitely a ball-buster, even for girls. You don’t come out of one of these classes feeling all that great about yourself, but you definitely come out feeling stronger.

[@ichdenkesonstichbin]

Can you film the teacher demonstrating and film from the back where the dancers stand next time? I love the teacher's demonstration. It would be great to see it when she demonstrates.

[@Becky.Ray14]

Its interesting how most of the companies ladies here do class on pointe. I mean normally you see a few but the majority here have.

[@Sunflower_vally]

At most companies usually all the ladies do center en pointe but it's quite rare for them to do barre en pointe.

I still don't get why teachers use commands like "use your muscles". This is just one of the emptiest, stupidest correction or comment you can give. Being precise and assertive in dance is a gift.

[@dude988]

It's not stupid. You can easily get tempted to let your leg just swing without control. It is helpful to have someone remind you to stay focused on the motion and not weasel through.

I didn't like the barre workout. Why so many short exercises?, three jetes, rond de jambe separeted in two, two frappes, a very heavy fondue... This could be a mix between Beautiful Ballet and some kind of new BALLET-GYM stuff. Too much ANATOMY and VERY LITTLE DANCE Dancers are great of course.

[@judegrant5712]

I agree with you. Skilled dancers and teacher but for me its like exercises.

Awful class. So glad I didn’t take this class. Teacher constantly shouting mindless corrections. Combinations are are ugly. Absolutely no epaulment. Tempi all too quick. Nothing wrong with fast work, but these dancers are simply trying to keep up. I can’t even blame the dancers. It’s the teacher. 😕

E B how would you have changed it then? Take more time for slower exercises and épaulement and then progress to faster combination, which the dancers obviously also need in their daily routine?
