[@znamoperu]

Oh...Carreno's turns!

[@LaurenOrion]

Was Davud Cooper Nilson in centere stage ?

[@morgained4]

That's true when comparing Ballet to other Western forms of dance, but other classical styles, Bharata Natyam, Kathakali also change a dancer's body, mannerisms, the way one walks, even the way one drives; but it does so in ways different from ballet. I'm not saying a Ballet dancer couldn't be great at Bharata Natyam or vice versa, of course it's possible, but it would be difficult for a Ballet dancer to reprogram his/her body to do Bharata Natyam and the opposite is also true.

[@The4everdancinqueen]

@yago311 it Joaquin de Luz from New York City ballet

[@yago311]

Who is the dancer that appears on stage with the red costume at 2:17?

[@gweiss1858]

[@crise201]

SAB (school of american ballet) the best :D

[@jacobfulcher1083]

sigh***omg I think I just had a bit of an outer body experience on that one!

[@iamgr80k]

@66nylorac Wrong.

[@morgained4]

All forms of classical dance are difficult though, a classically trained ballet dancer would dance circles around dancers of most Western styles, but if they tried Bharata Natyam? They'd have to re-program themselves completely. You know what I mean? They might understand how to train their body, but it would be awkward to re-train their bodies.

I'd say classical dances are the dances of dance.

@yago311 Joaquin De Luz New York City Ballet Principal

[@andrer.newcomb6516]

I don't like for there to be percussion with the dance. I like to see that they're still in their dream . . . from conception. . . still floating. Men who cruise the air.

[@theoryg]

Its the one form of dance I cant quite relate to. I do respect the diligent work and the dancers seem extra healthy and strong but break dancing and other urban dance styles catch me well before.

[@PPPConservatory]

Hmm, some of them I'd actually call Queens of Dance, and I'm sure they wouldn't be offended. They are amazing though and I agree with jinpitakki33's comment. Ballet is the Dance of Dances; if you are good in it, you can do mostly everything else. Of course there's always exceptions somewhere, but ballet IS considered the mother of all dances. I really like David Hallberg. His line is amazing. I remember when he won this prestigious competition before joining ABT, and now he is such a big star.

[@vereda61]

Kings of Ballet, not Kings of Dance... no way!

[@manupalace]

Shouldn't it be kings of BALLET?

[@theresag1969]

Female ballerinas are overrated!
