I can see why he's known as 'Vadream'. Not only does he put in that extra effort to make his ballerinas look amazing, but he looks like a bird in flight everytime he jumps

[@Poppy-]

I just kept looking at his feet. I'm amazed. It looked so easy. And precision in the landings in fifth! Like if nothing. What a wonderful dancer. Light like a feather.

[@June.Ardito]

I’m a ballet dancer, and he is just amazing it is so hard to be that good and so much work too; yet he makes it look effortless

[@Poppy-]

@@June.Ardito Indeed! As an adult beginner, I look like an hyppopotamus 🦛. But I'm fine with it and enjoy verrrry much looking at graceful dancers like Vadim.

[@VanessaBritneyTaylor]

My jaw literally dropped when I saw this at the cinema. Those double tours? The incredibly silent landings in a perfect fifth position? Those assembles? The perfect technique adorned with that glowing smile that makes it look effortless? He's so precise and smooth, he literally shines. Every time I think he couldn't possibly get better, he proves me wrong. What a precious jewel you've found, royal ballet.

[@ntricker]

Yet another stunning performance from Vadim. Not only is he the most perfect dancer with amazing light jumps and unbeatable technique, but his sheer stage presence and joyful smile make my heart lift every time I see him.

[@serenashaw-q3y]

Me too. Astounding.

[@misslanchi7359]

He truly isn't called Vadream for nothing

[@aml6106]

Perfect lines. Perfect technique. A pure love of dance that radiates. Va-dream indeed!!!

[@barnabyrt1012]

He is virtuosity and elegance at its best.

[@TheDelfinlady]

The height of his jumps paired with the control in the landings are incredible!

[@daniellereid01]

He is simply my favourite male dancer right now. He is wonderful! 💕

[@freiinmajor2511]

His vertical jumps are flawless and he makes them look effortless

[@ai51inn]

Amazing! What a beautiful dancer and man he is. Love Vadim and when he's partnering Marianela they are the dreamteam for me.

[@serenashaw-q3y]

And me.

[@elizzy8754]

I'd love to see Muntagirov and Nunez in Roland Petit's Coppelia. It would suit their personalities so well.

[@margoriazantseva4471]

Literally the best Franz i've seen for all 16 years of me being a ballet fan..

[@herrbrucvald6376]

I agree---he's the incarnation of joyous living.

[@inesdeerausquin5658]

His precision!!! Oh my goodness! And he makes it look easy and casual and happy.... Mind-blowing. Bravissimo, Vadim!

[@ibuprofenPill]

That was about as good as it can be performed. Solid, no balance checks or subtle corrections. Stunning.

[@mitzypinks1338]

Oh he is wonderful! Such precision and he just floats!

[@beabeatriz1975]

look at these port de bras and hands, so soft and beautiful 🙀

[@anabeatrizapsepaes7175]

Vadream! A complete artist!!

[@nicolehourcade]

I was at this performance, he was mesmerizing, dazzling withcan unbelievable technical level, my best memory of 2022😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮

[@peterdamato2359]

Vadim's technique is perfection in this solo. Look at the space he travels when moving across the stage. This solo is extremely difficult and he does it with effortless ease and with a broad smile on his wedding day.

[@ЗинаидаМунтагирова]

Браво браво браво Вадиму! Легко ,изящно,грациозно,виртуозно! Обожаю тебя,радость и любовь моя! Горжусь тобой,ты идеален,скромный,талантливый, красивый,трудолюбивый! Радуй нас и всех ,кто любит искусство!Целую тебя!🤗❤️❤️

[@zoea2737]

[@sinaikrigel-armstrong753]

This man is so incredible and he is my role model!

[@xueliwang8346]

Best dancer ever !!!

[@irinachernyshova9801]

I'm happy for Vadim. Hi is really talent! Bravo!

[@nicolereding7234]

This performance was my best memory of ballet in 2019 in spite the air strike in France😜🌺💯

[@uni0052]

Bravo!! I’ve never seen this variation, but I like it!!

[@ritawing1064]

Beautiful!

[@shirleykarrutheos7392]

I saw Coppelia live last December, beautiful performances from the whole Company. Very hard to believe it was Vadim's Debut as Franz, his dancing always out of this World. After the show a lady in the row before my seat was saying how she enjoyed the Ballet, the Safety Curtain went up, te Dancers were still on Stage, Vadim was picking up some debris from the Stage, an Usher caught up with us to Leave after my humble apology for not departing earlier. I think the Dancers do help after a show. Lovely experience,a little anecdote. 🙂

[@selene13000]

Hi can anyone answer this question i saw a video of mayara magri for swanhilda in the royal ballet channel that was dated 2019 and another video with marianela nunez for swanhilda still 2019. Were there perhaps 2 separate productions of coppelia in 2019?

[@meep9963]

He’s beautiful

[@RafaelSantos-xl1ut]

Vadim 😍😍😍

[@clairebeaumont8540]

1:05 he landed in a PERFECT fifth position. Amazing.

[@cecilyerker]

He’s such a big and tall guy but he defies gravity

[@fenchel773]

Wow, he makes it look like child's play.

[@marcelafranklin2429]

[@ntricker]

There was just one run of Coppelia in 2019, but it went on for several weeks, and within that run there were multiple different casts - so Nunez would dance it some nights, Magri on others and there were several more casts so a number of dancers got the chance to dance Swanhilda and Franz.

[@BalletomaneM]

Coppelia is an awful ballet, but Vadream makes this variation amazing!

[@PalacinkyPDX]

Great dancer but the tempo is sloooow. Kills much of the excitement of the variation.
