Emily Eaton - YAGP 2009 Chicago - Variation from "Harlequinade"

[vezinha5263]

Is beauty ! I"m eleven too !

I dance the pas de deux Harlequinade not the variation SHE IS BEAUTY

[cursive700]

how old is she

[babydre131]

i wish i went to her dance school were just learning this stuff and im thirteen!

[thefourandonly1]

Her legs and feet are so nice, but she keeps tripping and stumbling and stuff :/

[aubzgirl100]

Not to brag or anything but I'm a lot better

She has great legs but her upper body is horrible!

[nisha904]

@aubzgirl100 Well, obviously she's a little girl and she'll get better. And as a note, this competition was two years ago, I'm sure she has improved by now. Your remark about how you claim to better is highly irrelevant.

[iloveballet1000]

And also why can't vam productions put mine on.

[iloveballet1000]

@PokemonTCG88

No she's not wearing flats and you gotta check out Anaheim Ballet their awesome( like I siad in the last comment)

[annaxoxcoolovex3]

she doesnt look like shes enjoying the dance... and her upper body is so stiff

[PokemonTCG88]

Is she wearing demi pointes?

[cocolinabt]

@PokemonTCG88 If she were she couldn't possibly be dancing ON pointe. So- no demi points

[palmtree101gal]

**she's

[palmtree101gal]

**she's

[palmtree101gal]

Omfg he's fricking 11! I'd like to see you people do better!

[kmaelan112]

shes great but she really needs to smile

[bethyloves]

i thought she was great until i read that shes 11! I thought she was 6!

[jngwatson]

Delightful to watch. Good stage presence.

[PokemonTCG88]

Is she wearing pointe shoes or demi pointes?

[PokemonTCG88]

horrible for an 11 year old! 6 year olds can do better! shes too stiff, her head needs to be higher, she runs funny, she needs turn out, she needs to hold her positions...

not very good

[bonnieb118]

@PokemonTCG88 Can you do any better? She's 11, give her a break.

[PokemonTCG88]

@bonnieb118

Actually the some the the worst people in my class can do better. If you think she's good then compare her with actual people on youtube~~!!

Katia Almayeva, Allie Parson, Gillian Fitz (uh..)and theres like a lot more! Dont know how she got into the semis but yeah. Seriously not good.

[iloveballet1000]

@PokemonTCG88

I agree I'm 11 not trying to brag but i can do better... and u people have to take a look at Anaheim ballet ( my studio) they're awesome!

[PokemonTCG88]

@iloveballet1000

See?? Someone agrees.... I think she would be the worst person in my class... Im 12

[broadwaynballet]

@PokemonTCG88 seriously? shes amazing for 11. Yes her port de bras is not perfect. But her legs nearly are and she is quite phenomenal for her age!

[KatenaClea]

@PokemonTCG88

HAHA 100% agree lol! Shes horrible! Watch ANYONE else doing ballet on youtube! They're all better, EVEN 5 year old Belinda W!

[cswmovies]

you need to smile way more!

otherwise that was quite good

[ballerinagirl1998]

@Emm1379 I'm sorry if I was offensive! And if ou do t think I'm good than just check out my videos! Search Gillian Fitz.

[ballerinagirl1998]

Srry if I was offensive. Now she knows what to work on. I was just trying to help!

[jngwatson]

Excellent for an 11 year old.

[Emm1379]

meant good not food lol ;P

[Emm1379]

@ballerinagirl1998

you must be fricken amzing if your saying your so much better than that, she's only 11 and I know your gonna say you are too but she's food and you can't say about random insults about people you don't even know :@ I'm bot Sauk g your bad at dancing or anything I'm just saying don't insult people just co you think your better than them you might of been doing ballet for longer than her but I think she was fricken amazing... nuff said

[ballerinagirl1998]

No affence but that was hard to watch! I am 11 and I am way better on pointe then that! I actually got the hope award in Dallas, not to brag or anything I'm just saying she needs work!

[SamanthaGirafa]

@ballerinagirl1998 offense..

[67balletdancer]

@ballerinagirl1998 you r not that fricken amazing ,i watch your videos they are that good,but you dont have to be that annoying and to be insulting ,keep like that but dont say that nobody can be with u cause your annoying personality (you r a good dancer you just have to think that she is good too

[67balletdancer]

@ballerinagirl1998 you r not that fricken amazing ,i watch your videos they are good,but you dont have to be that annoying and to be insulting ,keep like that but dont say that nobody can be with u cause your annoying personality (you r a good dancer you just have to think that she is good too

[mar1dsb]

it's just me or there is something wrong with her mouth? could it be because of the nervous? but it's ok, it was very good!

[kellykballerina]

its easy to tell she isnt completely comfortable with those steps yet because her shoulders are all hunched up

[abby8080]

she suchs lol

[kakdance]

u no wut..she is only like 9 and probly hav been on pointe for less than a year. she is really good and her feet look very arched. PICK ON SUM1 UR OWN SIZE.

[balletbunhead777]

@kakdance umm shes 11...... the announcer says that at the beginning if she were 9 i would understand what you are saying but since shes 11 shes probably been on pointe for a year to year and a half. but this dance was much to hard for her.

[kakdance]

welllllll...it said she was 9 NOT 11. sorry if the video makers made a mistake but i am well versed in dance technique...

[JamesGallagher49]

Why is she on pointe? Just too early, no wonder she struggled to show any kind of expression! It was just too difficult for one so young. Obviously a very clever little girl to cope as well as she did. Keep up the good work.

[lost686girl]

its like her legs don't belong. they are so nice!

[creationbox]

she is lovely !

but i don't like her when she dance s;

[BalletCava]

No stage presence at all- where is her expression (like what so many other comments have mentioned)? Besides, she was so stiff and not graceful at all. Her arms technique are all missing.

[Bailarina123456]

Where your expression girl? I think you forgot at home!

[000DipTuti000]

she used no expression,she wasn't very graceful,and i think this version of "Harlequinade"is too simple and it has no grace.C'mon!We're talking about the Gran Prix!I think she is too young for some competition like this.

[gamgeegirl87]

How old is she?

[balletbunhead777]

@gamgeegirl87 shes 11

[balletdance15]

and the expression?!?!?! gosh!!

[saradelag]

Very nice

[TwoFaceTrio]

but I didn' care too much for the dancer because she used no expression and she wasn't very graceful

[TwoFaceTrio]

That was some nice coreography

[MegaDancingfool]

Absolutely lovely !!!!!!!!!!!

Thoroughly enjoyed watching your performance !!!

[gothlolidoll]

very cute and finally some age appropriate choreography!

[DSATEA96]

[fireladders]

SOOO cute!!! Well done!!
