He is the most magnificently graceful male dancer I have ever seen. What an absolute pleasure and sheer delight to see his elegance and strength and grace. I went to the Pathe transmissin live from Moscow today with him a lead male and Svetlana Zakharova as principal ballerina.What a pair!

who won in 2012? i think Polunin won one year and Ermakov won the most recent?

[@mathildewesendonck7225]

Yes, Polunin won in 2012. Olga Smirnova was the best female dancer

Слишком напряженно, неграциозно
