Prix de Lausanne 2024 Candidate and YAGP 2024 1st Place Winner - Melanie Mcintire

[@kathleenparker9297]

After watching so many of her short videos, I felt like l was watching a friend perform. Joyful

[@Rosepineres]

Me too! 🤭🤭🤭 I asked myself, isn’t that girl I know? 🤭🤭🤭

[@carla-e3c]

Me too❤

[@ImmortalHDizzle]

me too, I couldn't be happier for her ❤ she's gonna go far I just know it 🩰

[@ruthkult6536]

Exactly!!

[@Velereonics]

That's actually so true.

[@k8marlowe]

I’m not at all surprised! Her technique is perfection.

[@bakedbronco1470]

What are the odds!! I SPECIFICALLY search "Prix De Laussane Melanie" after watching Mel in Eva's shorts, and this vid came out 14 mins ago😧😧

[@GeraldineGuadalupe-n3i]

Wae❤

[@PrismverseTales]

Melanie!!! Yay! Her amazing turns!

[@kelligarza5199]

SAME HERE!! I was so excited to see this in my feed!

[@susannaschmaltz6418]

Yeees...

[@katsuyafeather1309]

She's deserving of becoming a Prima of this generation.

[@kasiam.180]

Новое поколение это пируэты?

[@michelle.k1004]

@@kasiam.180a little bit 😂

[@JustBeingAwesome]

she's not. She lacks the elegance and storytelling to be a prima. She is a mechanical dancer.

[@Taiga300]

@@JustBeingAwesome She is 16 years old and still very young, she has many years to learn and improve, I don't think the original commenter meant that she's going to be a prima this year or anywhere in near future.

[@JustBeingAwesome]

@@Taiga300 she's 17,5 and supposed to be in a professional company in 6 months... I hope she changes coaches that focus more on developing her artistry instead of just on gymnastics...

[@boots4845]

Melanie is always a joy to watch. She lights up when she dances. So mesmerising ❤

[@missunshinex3]

I thought she won 2nd?

[@rayaqueen9657]

Her lightness. Precision, joyfulness, alacrity, those arms!! (Did somebody mention turns? 😉😆) And she makes it all seem so utterly effortless, like she's just popping down the shops! She's truly a special talent :-)

[@aeriefaerie1166]

The years of absolute dedication of all ballet dancers proves their hearts are captivated by the art. Never ever ceases to amaze me. Have watched the little ones starting out and they are all very serious and committed and self disciplined. Amazing.

[@sienashawver6511]

If I’m not mistaken from watching her on a channel of the ballet school she attends she started out very late in her life

[@user-mp1hv2ng4z]

What a joy to see that your talent has been rewarded. I follow you on different channels, especially on Eva Nys' channel. With total admiration and best wishes for your career as a great ballerina. With admiration ! You are an incredible dancer of the highest spheres of light, of very high virtuosity. Congratulations from Lausanne

[@kittyfamtastic3534]

Eva Nys opened the world of ballet and made it accessible to the masses. I love her channel! Her photography is stunning, and these dancers are amazing!

[@christabcook]

SAME! I’ve been watching her & all Eva’s videos for a while now & I felt so SO happy for Melanie being there🩰🩰🩰👌

[@user-mp1hv2ng4z]

@@kittyfamtastic3534 Yes, on the Internet everything you note is true. My time, I knew the "painful" and incredible world of the beautiful world of ballet well before : )) Laughs in splits in the air of course. Eva Nys has created a very beautiful channel tinged with humor and beauty, remarkably presenting all kinds of delicate figures, exquisite dancers of very high levels, etc. Thank you for your intelligent vision of this vast virtual world. So many perspectives, so many worlds are offered to us, eclectic and varied. I do not speak English and thank you for your understanding. Nice continuation or continuation of this week before entering the round of the fabulous weekend.

[@ImpactofAsia]

The solo is flawlessly performed, showcasing clean technique and an incredible fouetté. A star is born-congratulations Melanie.

[@ai_ohto3980]

Mel is incredible, I love watching her dance

[@verboseecho9325]

My jaw DROPPED with that opening sequence of turns. Beautifully done!

[@BabyRastasaurus]

She is one of the reasons I started watching ballet videos. I've never had anything to do with ballet before other than getting inspiration from ballet related stretching routines. She deserves this!

[@SarahLou3683]

Mélanie est tellement talentueuse ! Non seulement sa technique est époustouflante mais c'est aussi une travailleuse acharnée et une danseuse née, Sa façon d'habiter la scène et sa joie de danser me rappelle un peu le regretté Patrick Dupond à ses débuts. Je souhaite à cette magnifique ballerine d''illuminer les scènes du monde entier de sa passion et de son rayonnement.

[@alicia_naraiah]

She's so wonderful!! Did you see the video on Eva's account of her 20 pirouettes 🥹 she’s definitely got a glittering career ahead of her 🥰

[@janiakowska]

d'accord avec vous elle doit maintenant murir son sens artistique....Lausanne n en a pas voulu...dommage mais elle a déjà le niveau d'une pro du ballet

[@KateCarew]

I KNEW HER TIME WAS COMING!!!!!! This I’m literally crying 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻 I was thinking for the past week that she must be going and here she is!! Melanie! You are amazing 🤩

[@mthompson2371]

I love watching Melanie Mcintire dance! She's so graceful and light on her feet like she's floating on air. Just beautiful!💖👏👏

[@juliescase5105]

How wonderful to see Melanie win 1st place. I love watching her in the 'shorts' on KZbin ❤. Congratulations 🎉.

[@boots4845]

@@tealimeteatime1244 The title is for her winning 1st place in YAGP Utah while also informing that she is a Prix de Lausanne candidate. Nothing misleading to the title unless you have very little reading comprehension.

[@pzh3334]

@boots4845 it can be misleading to people who are not familiar with ballet, to put 1st place in the title. It can imply this was her 1st place performance, no need to insult someone's reading comprehension.

[@emma_nutella58]

Ballerinas have this amazing gift of looking so graceful and beautiful whilst doing some of the hardest sport, Melanie is absolutely gorgeous in this

[@terrorblade_dachshund]

I am so happy for Melanie, one of the most talented ballet dancers I've seen

[@karenkoroscil9568]

That was beautiful Melanie!🩰🎭👏👏

[@DavidLeBlanc]

First and foremost, congratulations to Melanie. She danced with the poise of a mature, experienced professional. Second, congratulations to Masters and the teachers there. They taught and guided her well.

[@bluestarr2009]

Way to go Melanie! That was beautiful!

[@teenalagree494]

I absolutely LOVED this variation and Melanie was incredible!!

[@nijienjoyer_]

[@bethe7678]

No big surprise here! Melanie rocks as always. Watch every turn Melanie on Eva's shorts. Honestly, I started watching all those vids because of YOU. You deserve a spot in Prix de Laussane. Congrats on a well deserved win.

[@Miriwick]

I found myself smiling through the whole variation. What a pure performance!

[@CaitlinKoi]

Mel's balance and poise is always so astounding!

[@Bundito20]

After watching so many practices, it's such a joy to see the performance. Congratulations, Melanie!

[@Thatgirl1965]

You can see the JOY she has for ballet in her performance. I love watching her performances and practices, too!

[@heavenlyree]
