Best of Ivan Vasiliev

[@mjr8791]

Has Vasiliev ever heard of the laws of physics???? Amazing!! Wow!! What else to say? \o/

[@татьянасанникова-т5ъ]

Иван Васильев !! Самобытный , виртуозный , он -- явление на балетной сцене России. Успеха Ванечке , счастья.

[@LonerangerLoneranger-pu1hv]

For having such enormous leg muscles he is certainly breathtakingly nimble.

[@minissa2009]

It's also odd to see such a flexible back with such a strong center.

[@elizzy8754]

@@minissa2009 It's a lovely combination arising from genes and continuous practice, I suppose.

[@elizzy8754]

Loneranger47: The degree of development of Vasiliev's leg muscles allow him as a dancer to fuel the short bursts of energy needed for jumps and turns, without losing fine control in slower movements. Genetics, nutrition and practice play a part, of course. From a muscular point of view, dancers are somewhere between gymnasts and distance runners, with specialised training for the body required for their art.

[@minissa2009]

@@elizzy8754 If LoneRanger meant the comment as being derogatory (he's also around 5'10", so not the 6'2" a lot of the Bolshoi men are), I would respectfully disagree. Dance is motion and is less about how you're built than how you make your body, whatever its imperfections, move in space. I understood people dinged Osipova (why, oh why, could they not have preserved their dance partnership??) for having "short legs." But who cares once she starts moving? I'd watch a dachshund or a Welsh Corgi dance if it had her technique. Fonteyn and Fracci were also proportioned a little more like regular people than the legs for days aesthetic that's taken hold at the Bolshoi. I love Zakharova, but it's more her technique and musicality that I admire than the fact that she can stick her kneecap in her ear. (Thank you for coming to my TED Talk)

He really throws himself inside music, role and choreography! His dancing Thrills and moves! Unique!

Как перестать это смотреть? Уже час ночи, а я всё любуюсь этим торжеством человеческого таланта! ❤

[@joiedevie3901]

У него потрясающие мускулы и плотность для танцора. Учитывая относительно короткие ноги, он работает ещё усерднее для драматической хореографии, которую он совершенствует.

[@cynthiafletcher9845]

Ivan definitely has a flair for the dramatic and really connects with the audience. ❤❤❤

[@hortensiaperamo954]

Iván es sencillamente maravilloso. Además de sus excelentes y hermosos movimientos, tiene una pasión por la danza que emociona. Bravo Iván!

Его прыжки - это что - то невероятное!

[@candidacarino669]

He's a great stand-up comédien - - and Vasiliev can do the Russian leap quite well! People admire you - - Ivan Vasiliev - - and I do too!

[@_p1ckle]

what is the russian leap

[@BlossomFlowerGirl]

@@_p1ckleA Russian person leaping! It’s called “The Russian Leap”!

[@d.gazinelli8785]

There is no dancer today with the unparalleled virtuosity of Ivan Vasiliev. His precise and extraordinary physical ability surpasses all great dancers of the past. Vasiliev, a son of a great dancer, was born to dazzle. Even when he is standing waiting for a partner finish her sequence, palpable energy emanates from him as if his body is in motion. Vasiliev's grand jetés, fouettés and pirouetes defy the laws of gravity and physics. But his deep cambrés set the standards of how to finish a dance routine. Vasiliev is simply unmatchable and purely superb.

[@Roxanne84823]

Absolutely powerful and magnificent, WOW! 👏👏👏

As breathtaking as ever. Today I am particularly noting the angle of his body in the air during double turns such as between 1:57 to 2:09.

[@lanamay198]

Потрясающе. Не длинноногий, но прыгает изумительно. И такая точность движений!

I don’t like those compilations with jumps which make them look like circus numbers with the audience clapping on every jump or pirouette . Are we talking about dance or monkey numbers?

That’s probably Russia. Years ago my husband and I were on a flight and we landed in Paris. Everyone clapped! We were astounded and thought there must have been something wrong with the plane that we didn’t know about! Just normal in Europe. Everywhere has their own thing, Russians are very appreciative of good dancing. Truly, I think they’re the most appreciative in the world. One sided here I know but I loved his partnership with Osipova ( I know they were a couple for a while) - together they had ‘IT’ 🩰🩰👵👵👵🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
