[Banetita]

+ou-

[jamlaw]

You are beautiful!

[afiege]

Gladly I only have to read that ... here and not hearing. For a western dancer he has really high quality in his movement. First do ballet, than give comment!!!

[jonninyc]

He is so text book! I am a 32 year old man and just started classical ballet. I LOVE it. It makes me feel things I didn't know possible and definitely makes me all the better in the sack!

[Fishmon14]

@jonninyc

I imagine it would.

[looker768]

how does a plie in fourth position look like? is it ever done at all?

[Nyelasaur]

@looker768 the same as a plie in 5th but with space between the legs. yes, not only in barre exercises but also in things like pirouettes. :)

[2Foxxy4U]

Those legs.... Any guy who thinks that doing ballet will drive the ladies away is off their rocker.

[Beave95]

I use this technique to get my balls unstuck from my leg.

[looker768]

how tall is the dancer? he's handsome....

[devourerofbabies]

@looker768 he's not very tall

[Lisztify]

Beautiful!

[franjinha18]

his heels barely come off during his grande plie - that's fantastic!

[Blueeyedboy87]

I want this boy...LOOK at those THIGHS!!! :p

[morpheus1976]

Lot of jealous people that respond.

[SouthParkFanClub1234]

[tightsr4boys]

How beautiful the expression of the body in focused and controlled motion. Bravo.

[Kennny79]

he is like frog :D but very good!

[chonitodancer]

This guy's plié is so freakishly deep. I envy having the ability to bend my legs that deeply. This guy must have bubble gum tendons!

[balleweena208]

beautiful turnout!!!!

[colvus999]

mm... los brazos que usa son de mujer

[celestina9898]

[kurtamus1]

AMAZING demi plie.. omg

[Penguin70280]

@Necromortis61 Like you could ever dance like that =\

[ballarinoula95]

@Necromortis61

You obviously know NOTHING about male ballet dancers.

[magicalgrasshopper]

he stick his ass out in the grand plie

[citroxn]

this dancer is a member of a pennsylvania ballet???

[helltrackrider]

mmmmmm....sit on my face.

[10987654321nikita]

arms should be moving slower and more gracefully... the head should also be smooth when it follows the hands.

[AcemanJones]

I don't know about "slower" or "gracefully", but I don't think he's using enough resistance in his arms, or his legs.

[crumbleer]

geeez all u guys are retarded wid ur cimments u write. the guys a dancer with the Pennsylvania Ballet, where are you.

[odegaard]

That's got to be bad for the knees.

[10987654321nikita]

it is bad for the knees... hurts if done too much, and i have knee problems anyway.

[Spiorad]

It is bad if done wrong. If you have a teacher who is showing you proper technique and you listen you will be fine.

[greggles21]

generally only the girls breathe with the pours de bras at the beginning of the exercise. but generally a nice plié

[skippypepper4]

that's not true that only girls breathe with the arm before the plie.

[y3miyemi1]

your a twat, he looks brilliant.

[xTokyoxSundownx]

To piemans999:

You are so stupid. Do you understand how difficult it is do to a plie? Why don't you go to something better with your time? May I suggest for you to GO FUCK A MONKEY?

[rainonamonday]

hahahaha! nice.

[MusikalLiph88]

wow!!!!!! very graceful...loveit!!!

[ZefforinaBallerina]

his demi plie in second is as big as my grand plie hahaha i have short achillies

[emmacba]

wow!

awesome plies man! i wish i could do it like that =(

kss from argentina

[itotallyrockursocks]

your retarded why would you put a video on youtube of you doing plies and thats it any real dancer doesn't need to know how to do a plie!!!!!! RETARD!!!

[katrinadunn]

What makes you think everyone looking up a plie is a dancer? Its for educational purposes, obviously, since as you so rudely stated, a dancer already knows what one is.

[icarrus4u]

Your comment is retarded.

[cheergal200866]

hes doing grand plies not plies

[vanhelsing2005]

grand plies are plies plie simply means to bend

[cheergal200866]

lol i no what it means im an elite dancer

[Destructor616]

jajaja, pinches cillas y cillos

[Maarttttt]

Ballet is girls only.

[punkd87]

you' re so stupid.

[XnvrXstpXdancingX]

i agree

[EDstar221]

OI! I am a BOY and i do BALLET! Its normal and i find it fun. Stop being so narrow-minded and grow up!

[looker768]

@EDstar221 You are awesome and men will envy you when you grow older...

[KORJEZI]

que rayos te sucede destructor616? tu eres mas puto, no tiene nada que ver que sea bailarin

[Destructor616]

puto

[michebellamy]

a qué te refieres con puto? te apuesto que no podrías hacer lo que un bailarin de ballet haría, solo porque el ballet es una expresión corporal no significa que sea de jotos, ahi tu estas mal, necesitas ayuda profesional, tu jamás podras obtener la fuerza de un bailarin, averigua más sobre el ballet y despues te pones a alegar.

[egoamortu]

Amzing, and gorgeous

[ballerinaash6140]

michael pattersonnnnn! we had a conversation once about chinese places using cat as chicken. haha

[KtheSilencer]

Horrible form, his back is bent entirely too much.... I'll post a video later about how it should be done.

[janstary]

KtheSilencer: HOW do you know his back is bent? You don't see his back at all to make such a stupid patronizing judgment. Unless you are psychic but it has nothing to do this guy's plies...;-)

[abercrombieex3]

amazing turnout!!!

[kevin123verstappen]

I think you meant 'tendu'.

[balletdancer700]

no you can either call it turnout or tendu i prefer tendu tho

[kevin123verstappen]

There is a big difference between turn out and a tendu. A tendu is a step, and turn-out is basic in ballet, it is turning your legs out from the hip.

[mikeey30]

i think someones been telling you porkies

they are not the same thing lolz

[B5freshchika]

ha ha i said tondi...i meant tondu...all though im pretty sure you knew that =].

[B5freshchika]

very nice...good first, second, and fifth tondi positions also.

[raquelgalindo]

Me gustaría saber el título y autor de la música que acompaña al plié. Gracias

[macballa13]

amazing body!

[cconn92]

he has a nice plie!

[G216A911]

I'm agree with mmph07 that he should kept his right foot (supporting leg) still and his arm movement especially second position leading to full pile is too high that also make his shoulder too high.... it's just not right.

[KatydaCheerio]

bad arms

[jpknox]

ok well his leg isnt straight in fifth its bent like a biatch

[TwoLeftFeet2]

It's really sweet of him to teach ballet on youtube for people who would otherwise not have access to professional lessons.

[budlong]

Has a nice deep plie.

[mmhp07]

his 1st position is not right

and when he changes from 1st to 2nd and then to 5th he moves both feet for some reason. his right foot should be still

[scribbles1282]

Actually, his first is fine due to his calves and the needed distance in his hips. Also, you are allowed to make adjustments to your second the way he does. This keeps his placement in relation to the barre safe and equal.

[StevenGSR]

I heard that males have a better chance of landing lead roles if they are openly gay in ballet...is this true? Also, are there any famous straight male ballet dancers?

[birdeex3]

um YESSSSSSSSSSS! have you heard of barishnykov? One of the most famous dancers ever? He was a total ladies man.

[birdeex3]

baryishnikov is a famous famous famous male ballet dancer who was straight.

[birdeex3]

yeah, you're allowed to move your foot for second because the grande plie is different. i agree with scribbles.
