  • Which year it this from?

    In response to them looking "thicker" -- I think they don't look quite as thin as today's students, however I haven't seen enough footage to really make a good comparison...much of the more recent footage I personally have seen has been from David Kinsella's "A Beautiful Tragedy" which is notoriously biased...

    But I think it has to do with the film quality and angel. If you take them out of the studio and next to others you see how thin they really are!

  • People on her calling them fat etc . .They're at Perm. That makes them dance-wise supirior to you and your skinny butt ! Theyre NORMAL . Even on the slim side . This whole 'need to be soooo thin' is out of control . .

    

  • i wish i could go here!!!

  • how old are these girls????

  • how old are these girls? their very good...

  • @Cori1357

    i think 17. the stuff they're doing looks like the last grade.

  • Yeah.Beautiful is the word. It's very good techinque.

  • beautiful~!!!!!

  • wow i liked very much!

    this dancers are so grate.

    i think it´s because now there´s much more opporunity for everyone to learn ballet.

    its very competition...

    thats for uploading...

  • ohh...thanx

  • whats perm?

  • The city in Russia (situated near the Ural mountains just before Siberia proper starts) where this ballet school is situated.

  • Has anyone noticed, that over the years of ballet, technique has improved, as well as the shoes -- as does the "need" for ballet dancers to be skinny? When you watch some black and white videos of dancers, such as Margot Fonteyn, they stress on the dancing and the presence. Now it seems ballet companies stress on the body, the thiness, the feet, etc.

  • I agree!!! Very much so, everything has sort of evolved like that- ballet, modeling, sports...

  • I think it's because now there's much more opportunity for everyone to learn ballet, so there's more competition.

  • that's smart i would have never thought of that!

  • Can someone please tell me the name of this song? Thanks

    And thank you to ilyaballet for posting the video

  • This is obviously from years ago.

    Sakharova wouldn't take these girls anymore, they look too healthy.

  • It could be the camera angle too.

  • They are good, but it doesn't look at good as normaly perm is...

    So you are not the only one !

  • this looks pretty old..

  • they wasn't on pointe, becouse it is exam, and this is the final exercise in middle - grand adagio. In beginning is the smal adagio. In all "russians" schools are like that. Too in my.

  • they are amazing!

  • yeah i agree wiv thedancer27 it would of looked amazing en pointe (not that it doesnt look amazing already). They are all beautiful dancers.

  • their arabesque lines and developpes are amazing. why didnt they do this en pointe? it wouldve looked beautiful.

  • I thought that they weren't as strong as you would think they'd be.

  • Great.. How old are this girls?

  • thick? are you kidding? way to give someone an eating disorder. they look fine

  • a quqlidade da imagem nao e boa

  • Sorry, but the girls who study in Perm are very good. Look at all the european companies!!!! You find them every where!!! And many of them left Vaganowa Academy and than went to Perm, so you can say they are good!

  • is perm school located in st petersburg too?

  • its located in perm

  • wow really?

  • They'ro not as good as you'd expect them to be, looking at the Perm ballet company...Or is it just me?
