Guangdong Acrobatic Troupe of China Swan Lake

An amazing acrobatic version of Swan Lake as performed by the Guangdong Acrobatic Troupe of China.

[@brendaannedufaur6244]

Superlatively beautiful. She and he are beyond incredible. What a superb partner he is. An exquisite feast for the eyes. You can't believe what you're watching as you're watching it it is so extraordinary. It's acrobatics yet deep art. Their concentration, her calm quiet way she seamlessly prepares for the next extraordinary movement. Imagine the incredible life-time work that goes into such transcendant perfection. They are as if in a temple practising their diligent splendour before the divinities.

[@TheBunduBallerina]

Thank you so much! Nobody has ever described them and their art so accurately before. I couldn't agree more!

[@ericxie5261]

You make a good point! I admire them so much! Even though some professional ballet dancers despise the way ballet is presented in acrobatics, you can't deny that it is an artistic beauty that exists! Both performers are beyond our knowledge in terms of talent and skill! It was beautiful! It was like two ballet dancers performing acrobatic art.

[@gregparrott]

I have never seen such a level of acrobatics seamlessly integrated into ballet. Given how natural and effortless it was performed here, the two diverse skills were made for one another, and yet no one has done it before. Superb!

[@lauremehrkens5891]

Gregory Parrott I don’t think anyone else could do this.

[@karennoble1168]

Yes,💕🎈 Gregory, you could not have said it better!! It Is Absolutely unique.!!! A Masterpiece to go into history. There are classical ballets intermixed with modern, gymnastics or acrobátics But the grace, harmony Is often missing. But this Pure Tchaikovski Swan Lake with all the gracefulness, calm, perfect control, mastery AND Added superelastic bodies which blend completely with right music speed of this lovely Tchaikovski. I get goose bumps over so much of this beauty. Very difficult to surpass this ballerina.💕🎈

[@SobrietyandSolace]

@@lauremehrkens5891Maybe the Rybka Twins as they’re both trained acrobats and ballet dancers

[@highphysics3617]

I'm utterly,UTTERLY gob-smacked. I love classical ballet,and,Swan Lake is my absolute favourite,and my first thought was "Is this going to make a mess of Swan Lake?!!" Absolutely not. This demonstration of acrobatics,and,ballet,is unbelievable. Impressive? A thousand times more. En pointe on his arm, is stunning enough,but,standing on his head.....My brain didn't want to believe what my eyes were seeing. Incredible performance by both dancers. thank you TheBunduBallerina.

[@TheBunduBallerina]

It's a great pleasure. Thanks so much for your lovely appreciative comment.

[@catmom1322]

I always thought ballet was both dance & athleticism, but this troupe has taken it way beyond that. How incredible!

[@PhoenixInLove]

Are you KIDDING ME!?!?!?? The strength and talent displayed here is beyond amazing!

[@BeveC21E]

Beautiful marriage of ballet + acrobatics ever I've seen! They were so amazing! The balance and control of the principals...outstanding! Bravo bravo bravo! Thank you, BB!

[@TheBunduBallerina]

Thank you so much!

[@mariasolarus66]

This woman is the most graceful dancer I've ever seen! She flows like water!

[@karennoble1076]

Yes, there is something so very special and so unique about this lovely ballerina, such poise, him too how he looks after her, it is all amazing, beyond the right words.

[@Cricket2731]

This is the 1st time where I saw *no* spotters. Absolutely magnificant! BRAVISSIMO!!!

[@deborahlipsi730]

It just defies anything I thought was possible! I couldn't breathe! Incredible, just incredible!

[@user-oz1kt3jz9x]

Какое хрупкое создание, как это красиво, просто супер выступление 👋👍🌹

[@alexach.]

It is absolutely incredible, I couldn’t stop crying because it was so beautiful ❤️both dancers are amazing!!!

[@drbettyschueler3235]

This is by far the best presentation of the three I've seen on KZbin. It takes the breath away. The fact that the gymnastics are done without a spotter is insane but then again the ballerina is so sure of herself a spotter doesn't seem to be needed. I've seen a lot of gymnastics, in 75 years, but this is by far the most amazing I've ever seen.

[@el7jake]

it isn't just the ballerina being sure of herself; she has to be very sure of her partner also. This is all about the partnership obviously because if one of them screws up even the slightest, one or both of them could be hurt. Yes, they are absolutely amazing.

[@e.r.6147]

Breataking

[@penelopebutler3632]

Not a fan of hyper-extensions but I watched this to the end and have to say I was mesmerised by the quality of the couple dancing, pointes are hard enough on the floor but to see the technique taken to another level....... Superb entertainment!

[@f.d.5952]

The beauty made me cry, the acrobatic level left me shocked! 1000/10 incredible!

[@candidaclarke1]

Wow. I mean... WOW... I don't have words in the English lalanguage that I can think of to accurately describe what I just witnessed and felt during the performance... I didn't know humans were capable of such grace and athletesism all at once. The strength and years of training for the Ballerina to be able to accomplish those moves, and the sheer strength and skill of her partner to allow them to work so seamlessly as a single unit, in order to acheive a performance of such great beauty is ASTOUNDING and I pray they Both are rightfully acknowledged for their immense talents!!! 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤ WOW! WOW! WOW!

[@ninasmelser7015]

I was thoroughly blown away by this incredible performance. The graceful control of these two dancers was breathtakingly beautiful. Wonderful, awesome. Thank you to the whole troupe❤️

[@gnedelcu7]

Thank you for this video. Amazing performance! Bucharest, Roumanie

[@franxiscosanchez7668]

GRACIOSO LAGO...............G.

[@rlatimer10]

As reluctant as I am to praise anything that veers ballet towards acrobatics, I cannot but praise the level of athleticism and actual artistry of this performance. It is not ballet but it is acrobatics at the highest levels, kudos to these dedicated and beautiful athletes.

[@user-pl5ex6ky5c]

こんなにアクロバティックなことやってるのに、華奢で綺麗！素敵！

I love Swan Lake but WOW this is amazing.. i just cant take my eyes of her n him. I envy the people who wayched this live.. Well done...Bravo, Bravo❤

[@adrianaclark8498]

If every ballet company in the world saw this, both would immediately become principle dancers, soloists, prima ballerina, and be able to name their price!

[@evaeyez9379]

amazing incredible impossible never seen before only want to see acrobatic ballet from now on bravo bravo bravo

[@alecsia96]

OK, to say i am impressed is an absolute understatement. I am shocked. Someone explain to me how does that incredible woman stand EN POINTE on top of this amazing guy's arm/shoulder/head? WHILE doing everything that she does? The finale killed me, i don't understand how is this physically possible. It's been years since anything left me speechless... Brain numbingly incredible. God bless you, TheBunduBallerina

[@TheBunduBallerina]

Thank you for your beautiful comment, Alecsia!

[@chacha_rouge]

a tough neck and good tense arm musculature I say. And the head gear

[@Lisa-pe4kq]

Overwhelmed, just overwhelmed! I don't think there is are more talented athletes anywhere in the world.

[@2degucitas]

alecsia96 You have said everything I was thinking.

[@honeyowen3163]

i feel same as you. i can't think of any words to describe the beauty i just witnessed, i really have no words.

[@aliciapanzer2970]

Ok, but low-key, the corps costumes are literally the coolest things ever. LOVE the look of the head thing.

[@christinestill5002]

A "Swan Lake" that will stun you if you're not ready for it! Beautiful! She is en pointe on his bicep! On his head ? ? ,

[@erinplummer635]

Amazing!!!! That ending was freaking unbelievable. What amazing talent💜

[@shelleyc853]

I saw a version of this in my hometown in 2008 for my best friends 9th birthday. I still remember so much of it, one of the best things I've seen in my life.

[@EMoore-ck4po]

131 people dislike this? I can't believe it. This is the most beautiful and acrobatic ballet I've ever seen.

[@pilmolee9773]

Hey, these people are jealous that China, not a European country, has an amazing couple who can perform these acrobatic feats with such precision.

[@harrisbobroff9813]

Seen this some years ago, it never loses it Greatness.

[@harrisbobroff9813]

You mean Thé Ballerena from This Show??? Never in a millionaire years I hear from anyone from China??? I am dumbfounded by such a response!!! Four men from Russia duplicated a few moves while on their hands, from Swan Lake. But balancing in this program deserves all the alloclades one can Receive!! The Highest Performance would be in the Presence of Jesus Christ, ....:)))

[@rutbrea8796]

I am not an expert on ballet or music for that matter, but this work is amazing! Better than most of the Europeans, Latin America or any other I have ever seen. These people are amazing in the Acrobatics and in compositions of such kind. More than one thumb up!!!

[@ylaganylagan4582]

[@c004857]

I'm breathless ! The amazing things that these incredible dancers can do. This is beyond beautiful. No words describe it. I'm speechless.

First time I have seen the 'dancing on the head' WITHOUT SPOTTERS ON STAGE in the performance - so this took even more courage. Can't watch any 'normal' ballets again after seeing these amazing feats.

[@maychen4801]

The IOC has to take a look at this to believe something as extraordinary as this taking place outside of the Olympic venue and missing the world podium. They must issue a gold medal to this couple particularly her for being an artistic gymnast, ballerina, rhythmic gymnast and acrobat. She looks frail but boy is she strong. That hand-stand supporting her entire body weight is beyond belief and her arms look like toothpicks. It took my breath away and my heart stopped beating.
