Back in the late 1950s, my mother, who loved ballet, managed to persuade my stepfather, an amateur track and field athlete, to go with her to see the Bolshoi on their first visit to San Francisco. I think he was talking about Nikolai Fadeyechev when he said “That guy broke the records for broad jump and high jump simultaneously!“ He was so impressed that when my mother decided to take adult beginning ballet classes at the SFB school, he even took classes with her for a while! (But actually, I think he mainly did it to try to make his calves bigger, as he was also a bodybuilder.)

Totally keep up w these videos! I know literally NOTHING about ballet, but I'm obsessed w watching EvaNysPhotography after it randomly showed up on my feed. As did you and I am OBSESSED! The dancers you showed in this video are often the ones she highlights in hers as well. Getting to watch such talented ppl on more channels is great. Not only for us viewers, but for the exposure you're generating by picturing them on your channel. Had I not randomly come across both of you guy's channels I'd never have thought about it. I believe that you'll b helping bring a whole new and quite sizeable audience of ballet enthusiasts and giving ppl the opportunity to become fans not only of the art, but of the individual dancers themselves. I commend you for that. And so, w that entire book basically said was, yeah, I dig the videos, you should keep doing them, lol!

And Eva’s ability to capture all the behind the scenes hard work that goes into it is truly impressive!

As a previous MBA Master Ballet Academy dancer, it's really hard to get into the classes unless a teacher recommends you or you have siblings that go there. I was only able to do the "Adult Beginner Classes," which had more realistic dancers other than the prodigy's. You have to be dancing everyday for hours & be homeschooled to get to their levels. Most dancers there pay $500 a week in just group classes, not including privates, costumes & comps. I paid $50 a week for 2 one hour classes which is already a lot for me since I'm a college student making minimum wage.
