  • What about the posture? His but is sticking out, lower back looks tight and lower abs perhaps weak? I`m surprised no one noted that. I have the same problem and i`m training double hard to strenghten my core.

  • That was insanely good!

  • Este vídeo, é fenomenal, extraordinário!!!

    I like this video!

  • lol ballet dancing is for gay ppl who suck, wanna know a real dance? its called the dougie

  • He is amazing!

  • Ganz ehrlich... das ist voll die Mega- Körperbeherrschung. So wie er tanzen kann will ich auch tanzen können. Meinen großen Respekt... ich hoffe, dass es gesellschaftlich endlich mal ein höheres Ansehen hat wenn Männer auch Ballett tanzen. Mich kotzen die Vorurteile wie "Alle männlichen Balletttänzer sind schwul" etc. an.

  • great technique, awesome turner and jumper! your a natural !!!!!

  • This is...so beautiful! Look at his leg extensions *--* Oh my god...There is something about male ballet dancers!

  • I did not see 'Troy' (what would Alexander of Macedon be doing in Troy) or most other movies featuring Alexander.

    What's the big problem with him being the nearest there was in the ancient world to a modern gay man?

    Read the academics on the matter and Mary Renault - Alexander was also extravagantly handsome - I note you don't object to my describing him as a 'psychopath' - Renault doesn't.

    Maybe he wasn't.

  • What do you mean "No homo..." - he could well be a 'homo' sexuality / orientation has noting to do capacity in ballet, biochemistry - or for that matter, the battlefield.

    Alexander and Frederick the 'Great' were both 'homos'.

    Admittedly Alexander was probably psychopath, and Frederick was [power-]drunk in charge of the finest army in Europe.

  • @SMcGouran Alexander the great was not a homo.... im greek.... you saw the movie of troy and everyone now thinks that alexander was a homo... read the freaking real story, dont go around spreading the wrong ideas... pls....

  • @sakatis I study classical Civ, and it is evident that Alexander the Great did in fact have gay relationships!

  • This is pretty cool, there's obviously huge amounts of discipline in the art. I've never really considered the male aspect of ballet, but it's apparently very challenging.

    And this guy pulls it off great! ...No homo.

  • How comes they have perfect body? Is there special work out or what??

  • @TAJIKROCKS Perfect form doing everything as well as posture makes your body like that...

  • @TAJIKROCKS its from years of ballet training. doing techniques repeatedly. dancers also focus on alot of muscles that alot of people dont kno about,

  • beauuutiifull!

  • I don't see how this is gay at all... Being surrounded by gorgeous girls in skin tight suits and practicing with them all day and night?

    And look at the guy go! His agility and precision is very impressive.

    I bet lots of girls would just melt (literally) for the guy.

  • I was amazed... I got inspired ..!!! =D

  • AAAWW! My female loins! they are aflame with desire!

  • whats that move called at 2:03- !!?? i must know

  • @stanbarley its a Saut De Basque od don quixot

  • ....ma è un elicottero ??... ;D, comunque SPETTACOLARE!!!!!!

  • i'm a guy and i wouldnt dare diss ballet. my friend is a ballet dancer and she wanted to teach my some moves. and guys, your muscles have never experienced pain until you try ballet. after one day i was sore as hell! so guys, dont be dissing on ballet.

  • Yes it does look gay, definately. But you know why? Because men are attracted to elegance and those smooth and graceful movements and while they find the movement attractive they are very confused because a male performs it. So it's the fear and confusion they get from beeing attracted to the dance and disgusted by the fact it's a man and it's still attractive.

    So its the fear from the fact they could be gay that produces this hate and ignorance.

    Well its just my theory.

  • @KahGor it cant look "gay" gay is not an adjective. 

  • do male ballet dancers have ballet shoes? just curious, I don't know anything about ballet but I think it's just really beautiful :)

  • @jwaacks

    yes, they wear soft ballet shoes. traditionally they are black, like the ones he's wearing. they don't however wear pointe shoes or "hard" shoes like ballerinas do.

  • @silverbab3 ok, thanks :)

  • how elegant.

  • i looked this up to see the perfect moedan male form if he was stronger her could b a ufc fighter

  • this makes me regret quitting dance for tennis :( this the stage i would be at or even higher! ughh! haha oh well i know ill get back into someday!

  • Learning the absolutes in ballet: let me tell you, this young man and Finis Jhung; show you perfection.

    As I learn the basics; I can imagine the years upon years; if not decades of training. Any comments untoward regarding the young man you see here; interpret it yourselves as you see fit. You could not replicate. It would take me a decade.

    Awesome! Respectfully beautiful.

  • That guy has an amazing body.

  • muy buena tecnica....... pero........donde esta el arte en todo esto??

  • wow

    

  • Whenever I watch people dance or sing, I always wish so badly that I knew how... Especially when my boyfriend sings for me >_< It's amazing what humans can do with their bodies!

  • Good for you young man. I'm so happy you are pursuing your passion.

  • when he took his shirt off i was like :D Ballet dancers have the best bodies in the world they are perfect!

  • @zanysazy gay

  • that is not natural. and plus his arms are way too long for his body.

  • dye dada dye pa papa PA

  • This guy would be amazing in Taekwondo…

  • I love Joseph Gatti!!! He's been such an idol for me as a young dancer.

  • Wow What Great Legs !

  • he's probably really good at sex

  • @Cidantis gay too

  • this dancer is joseph gatti, amazing dancer hes a dancer with boston ballet now

  • Bloody hell I can't even Imagine a guy dancing ballet but teaching it? :D not to criticise I'm just shocked :)

  • He's amazing....love make ballet dancers

  • Comment removed

  • beutiful dance its great dancer

  • I wish you were my teacher. mine's a blood sucking vampire witch thing

  • ballet dancers have better bodies than most straight men..

  • Wow! What a turner! Six secondes into four pirhouettes ending en balance! I've only seen Peter Schaufuss do that. This is an exceptionally talented dancer.

  • im a breakdancer and hip hop dancer, and started learning all this ballet, jazz etc trying to get into Juilliard!!

  • i was watching this with my mouth open. his control and suspension in his turns is amazing

  • 1:35 + winn..,..seriously though...jumps and turns to die for :)

  • WOW THE CONTROL THIS GUY ON HIS JUMPS IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!! the strength is crazy he has so much poise !!!!! love it

  • I Love those Tight Pants! OMG!!!

  • i always wanted a guy who could dance...dance dance not break dancing or anything

  • marry me. o___o

  • Ballet dancers probably have buns of steele.

  • I have a question and It's kinda weird but I've heard ballet dancers sometimes tend to get a really sore achilles tendon from dancing so much. I know there is plenty other sports that can give you the same problem but Ive just heard stories of dancers damaging that particular area. I ask because I'm debating taking a class but my tendon was damaged a few years back from a dog attack.

  • I can do that. I choose not to.

  • OMG ... Joe Gatti is just incredible!

    To all of you posting that Joe Gatti is "Gay". Thank you so so much! It would be an honor to think that such a great athlete and artist such as Joe would be Gay! But then caring about whether someone is heterosexual or homosexual and worrying about who they sleep with at night really doesn't have anything to do with a person's career, work, athleticism, artistry, etc. .... so you people who do care really need to deal with your own personal problems!

  • did he just land in fourth position after a spin jump? ouch! props to him

  • AMAZING!

  • sexy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • What an amazing job !!! If one day i can do that...!

  • I think the dance is beautiful. I would rather date a male ballet dancer than a football player anyday. There is an air of manners that I would associate with the dancer, that I don't know if I would find with a football player.

  • @wouldntyoulike2know I totally agree with you for the same reasons!

  • @EROSGODOFGAYS Thank you.

  • @wouldntyoulike2know so true, i do ballet and with the guys in my school they r more polite then many football players i know:)

  • @loveballet81 I think that is so great. It really is true, and I think the dancers are stronger, because they have to stand on their toes and do all these complex moves. I bet they have really strong leg and arm muscles. :)

  • @wouldntyoulike2know yes! exactly!! but people always r like noo i play football so therefor im stronger! im like shut up

  • @wouldntyoulike2know thank u im a male ballet dancer all my friends make fun of me because of it im glad u say that nd im not nearly as good as that guy so please dont ask me to upload videos lol

  • @j748xx1 Your welcome. :) I bet you are very good and strong too. :) Just keep practicing and who knows, maybe one day you will be even better than him. :)

  • OMG the last enchainement was icredibly amazing

  • its just beautiful! i wish i could dance like that (and also have a body that nice!)

  • Ohhh, My, God.

    He is A-MAH-ZAINGG!!

    Love it, love this video so much!

  • Insane tricks but that's all I see! It is really good but I think you need to find where your dancing doesn't come across arrogant.. It seems like when you were talking to who looks like your teacher you were telling him this is what I do so listen to me! Seems very arrogant. Again great tricks but work on making your dancing dancing!!!!!!!!

  • @YassAttack this guy is joseph gatti hes married to adiarys almeida what do you mean do your research have you done yours???

  • This guy is really good. But search Youtube for Barychnikov or Nureyev Le Corsaire, same dance, but lifted to Godlike heights. Also, re: the snarky sexual comments re: ballet. A ballet dancer is a world class athlete who deserves the same respect as any football or basketball great. Ballet dancers give their lives to learn an incredibly difficult art, then have careers that are relatively short since their bodies don't usually last beyond their thirties. They give everything for their art.

  • OMG what is the second last variation he did?

  • This guys technique is beyond amazing!!! i wish i could do this!

  • I want to study with Finis Jhung soooo bad! Just look at how incredible this guy is! I'm a male dancer myself but I could never be as good as him.

  • i'm a guy. i wish i could dance as well as this guy. p.s. ballet dancers are fit so they have strength most of us could only dream to have. and grace. so suck it stereotypes. this is real dancing. and its awesome

  • I really don't think that ballet is gay. It's really good but I might try that soon.

  • How gay

  • @colinporter1968 Go do something else besides vent on youtube.

  • @colinporter1968 If you think its "gay" then why did you search and oddly enough watch it.....?...

  • OMG.

  • get this. how is it that male dancers are classified as gay when they dance with girls all day whereas footy players jump on guys all day?

  • @airboeingbus lol.... that is the ignorance of people for you. Considering that Ballet takes way more training and discipline that football.

    I wish I had started ballet when I was younger.... a little late for me now to expect to do much with it, but I still love it.

  • @airboeingbus afuckingmen. im a male dancer and i have always told that to people. but idc anymore, ppl see me with girls all the time, im tellin u, girls always love a guy that can dance ;)

  • @airboeingbus this a great comment because its true

  • @airboeingbus well, when u play sports, u would get pussy. where in ballet if u play pussy, you only get cocks.

  • @shegwin or you get pussy by shredding up the dance floor at any club

  • @airboeingbus lol but listen to the male teacher...just stating the facts...he's expectionally soft spoken, a gay stereotype...

  • @ntherewas1 stereotype... just that

  • @airboeingbus Actually the vast magority of male dancers aren't gay at all. In fact all the ones I know are Bi.

  • @airboeingbus well... thecnically speaking, gay men/ femine men, do hang out with girls/ groups of girls...

    whilst guys like to hang out with the guys.... footy is a contact sport, it's causing pain to other players when "they jump" each other.... pain, not pleasure....

  • Im a straight dancer myself but i must say that prejudice doesnt come without a reason. :D like 30-40% of dancers i know are gay which is a lot more than in other professions

  • @airboeingbus it's called Red Neck mentality! sow belly's that lack even an ounce of talent:

  • @airboeingbus

    nicely said... im a ballet dancer and im straight... anyway... when im dancing, i dont see girls as usually do... cause when u dance u go to somewhere else in your head... but well... i gotta be honest, im not always dancing hahaha ;)

  • @airboeingbus .. just move on.. who cares what they do in their bed rooms? People have their own issues if they are questioning sexual preferences of other people.

  • Oh very very good! I love balett!WOW!Fantastic!!!:D:D (L)(L)

  • dude that is some serious talent. right on bro!

  • six a la secondes! that was freakin' awesome!

  • damn he's got long arms

  • He makes it look sooooo easy!

  • Wow this guy is epic, hope im as good as this in a few years. I dont see why sexuality is brought into the equation, you cant tell from a guy dancing who he is attracted to??? Im straight and hope i can one day achieve this level of grace and eloquence, he is uber talented and thats all that needs to be discussed. If people dont agree with guys who do ballet and think its all just too gay, then why are you sat on youtube watching videos of male ballet dancers?? seems an odd thing to do???

  • @BBoyBallet i completely agree bro

  • @BBoyBallet good answer

  • finis jhun made a vid for male dancers?

  • sure he's a great dancer, but bad on choosing pants, LMAO

  • @leyshaAH You need tights on ballet for males to be able to see the movement clearly and the corect possision of the waste!

  • @manoman19902 darling it's waist, not waste...and i know, i do contemporary and modern ballet, he can wear stretchable nike or adidas pants for all i care

  • @leyshaAH i think he's doing classic though. for classic training everyone generally wears tights.

  • incredible spins, high jumps jumps, wow, i don't think i could spin like that, i don't have good balance, just basic balance... i guess spotting helps though... thanks for the upload

  • You guys can jump so high! Its amazing.

  • sick

    

  • One of the things I don't enjoy about watching ballet is how the men are so obviously gay. I mean I don't care if they're gay or not in real life, it's just annoying when you're watching swan lake where the guy is supposed to be crazy horny & in love w/ the swan princess & as an audience member you can't get into that story because the guy lead too often has an effeminate quality to him that makes you see he's gay. Some gay ballet dancers pull off heterosexual roles perfectly, but few do.

  • hahaha cause im in Class and rehearsal !! I dont need to SMILE!! hahaha when someone is training like weightlifting... do you think they SMILE?? ahhahahaa come on :) ahaha But If you really wanna see ME smile check out my "PERFORMANCE VIDEOS" ! thanks.

  • verryyyyy awesome

    tho he should relax a little and try smiling

    i mean he looks as if he's got nervous tension

  • @adigatti my god you are really a great turner ,l will send to you a clip of another phenomenal dancer

  • ...he must not be straight...for such excellent perfomance...

  • i wonder how many years it takes to be this graceful. beautiful moves! no flaws

  • yes gay because gay's do everything that much better than you lol. but whatever your just upset because you tried ballet and failed miserably at it lol. If you were any good at it though you probably would have had something intelligent to say about the video clip and Im sure he is not really worried about his sexual preference in class cause at the end of the day he gets paid for what he loves to do which would be much more enjoyable than any mundane person could accomplish.

  • -.- gay

  • @KINGXSI Your mum is gay! STFU BITCH.

  • @Tahlia5 hahahaha he is straight too... has a very hot girlfriend.

  • @KINGXSI and so what? any problem with that? do you still live in jurassic times?

  • @KINGXSI did you just come out?

  • @KINGXSI WHY DID YOU SEARCH IT THEN? :D

  • Brilliant

    

  • Hey everyone this is Joseph Gatti the one dancing in the video.. if you guys like this check out my new Video of me performing on stage in NY CITY CENTER this past March!!!! Just search Joseph Gatti "WALPURGIS NIGHT BALLET" hope you guys like it!!!

  • Armydude991 if you think is is so why are you staying here and writing comments?

  • amazing, !!!

  • beautiful!

  • Its amazing! Congrat´s

    P.S: It really take´s a man to not mind what other people think and persuit his dreams!

  • Hey everyone This is JOSEPH GATTI the one in the video!And their are gay dancers but Also Straight , and im a straight dancer. the girl I usually dance with a lot is also My girlfriend we have been together over 4 years. Adiarys Almeida shes a beautiful dancer check out her Videos. So "ARMYDUDE991" you need to get your facts right next time man. And the word you used "BUMBUM'' actually makes you sound a bit gay bro or maybe 5 years old.HAAA!! who the hell uses that word?dont tell me the army?

  • i really like this video i will be taking my first ballet classes, this guy is good.. i hope ill be able to learnt the turns and great structers of movments.. im a straight guy so maybe it will be a little hard since the expression is not the same as a gay guy. not that i have anything agasint them.

  • @FreestyleBoy2010 please take your classes and study hard and work to the best of your ability and don't worry about gay or straight. If you are a good dancer no one knows, cares or can tell what your sexuality is. People see a guy dancing and assume that if he makes a graceful move, or drops his wrist, he is gay. this is all foolishness. forget it and study what you like.

  • I think it is funny that, if a guy does ballet, its automatically assumed he is gay.

    There are alot of gay guys in ballet, but there are also a lot of straight guys as well.

    I participated in the nutcracker this last Christmas as more of a character (as opposed to doing any real ballet dancing) and about half of the male dancers were gay. That doesn't matter though, cause even though they are gay.... they are still people and are more fun to hang out with than a lot of my straight friends.

  • HE LIKES WILLIES UP HIS BUMBUM

  • @Armydude991 Two of the most famous football players, Lynn Swann and Herschel Walker took ballet for 5-8years to help them with their balance and flexibility.

    If you think ballet is for whimpy guys say that to Two NFL hall of Famers, broke records that they still hold today..

    And btw, there are gay guys in the army tooo.

    Get yourself educated.

  • @Wesleyhothunk15 Faggot

  • @Wesleyhothunk15 Faggot.

  • @Wesleyhothunk15 lol fag

  • @Armydude991 I think you're hiding a gay crush.

  • @Armydude991 I think you're just pissed b/c you aren't even in the real army and this guy is a professional at what he does. When you can get away from behind a simulator and be a real soldier then talk shit

  • @catcherinred and I think you're a faggot so we're even.

  • @Armydude991 so apparently that's your only comeback. I'm assuming you are also a faggot since we're even, but since nobody really gives a shit what you think, we'll just be content with you being a jealous pussy.

  • @catcherinred haha shup faggot. Go take it up the bum

  • @Armydude991 shup? stop jacking your boyfriend off and type dumbass.

  • @catcherinred You're adopted
