I LOVE it! I have had the biggest dance crush on Daniil since i saw him dance four years ago at the International Ballet Competition! He is AMAZING. I'm hoping he'll be going or competing or something again this year, because I'm going to all the performances since I'm in the IBC camp for us kids... haha:) i could watch Daniil dance alll day. :)
wonderfull the way the film is made from start to finish.
So great to see clean form..imagine if u use weight and your 'plié' more then u would get more height and velocity from the movement. (look at Cechetti priciples of weight)Take it from me..an older one!
you are/were one of the MOST flexible 13 year old boys i have EVER seen. great job!!! that was seriously almost perfect. people like you make me feel like a ridiculously bad dancer.
lol Oh god i see a dance rivalry going on lol this is partly why i never comment on videos as a dancer O_O sorry im not all pro like you guys LOL!! haha and btw Icarrus4u only conceded dancers make profiles for themselves seriously if you were so pro as you say you are then you shouldn't have a profile showing yourself dancing personally i wouldn't do that cause that's pretty dang stupid
Dude, I have been a professional ballet dancer for the past ten years and I've been in NYC in 3 professional companies. It's a fact of life for us male dancers. Good thing I have support of my dad but guys some don't. I'm just acknowledging that's obviously his father was in the profession and I think it's great!
Well real dancers get the opportunity to experience everything. Sorry you're such a loser! Get a life. Plus by looking at your profile I could tell your a nobody.
then what would that make you - lol! I know exactly who you are - keep telling yourself you're a "real dancer" and maybe one day it'll come true - then you can join the rest of us at Lincoln Center (in the meantime, I won't hold my breath)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Lincoln Center is for dancers who can ONLY do one thing. Is that you? Probably and guess what, NO ONE cares. Dancers like myself can do EVERYTHING and entertain a full-crowd ALL the time. That's me. Im not cocky but that's also a fact.
You should really know who I am now. Peace HATER.
dis is cool and at my old ballet studio there waz a guy that wears point shoes in my class iam not making it up. my teacher was russin this is in los angels.
what a beautiful father/son tribute to dance. you all look like you ahve a wonderful relationship and both such a great gift to dance. . . .thank you dimitri for your dance and your son!!!
Let me just say that i have done ballet for over ten years. I have also made films for about five, and this is VERY well done. Congratulations, i'm jelouse ^_^
this is truely inspirational. How wonderful for you share such precious time togethr doing something you both excell at and obviously love. I wish i could do something similar with my children one day!!
This video made me very sad...I used to be able to do all the same moves...until my car accident. :(. I miss being that good - but it hasn't stopped me yet.
Classical ballet with a good sense of humor...You're both are great artists. And your father doesn't seem to be full of himself, letting his son "beat" him...I hope you still find the time to dance with your dad..., now you're professional and far away from home...There's a chemistry and understanding between both of you, that can't be replaced by any other dancing partner...Would love to see both of you in a performance. Post more , please...
I hope that I become as great a dancer as Daniil that boy can dance!!!
