[ninachiquitina]

[Krisse261]

[XxCrAiGz93xX]

[franamelia0]

[AlesanaLoverxx33]

Shes going to be a professional ballet dancer when shes older.

[TeoKaiHui]

12 people do not know how to dance, or to understand ballet!

[PolinaSemionovaFan]

What variation is this?

[polkadotpolka123]

she's so graceful :) unlike me who sounds like an elephant in class... :D

[citruzzlove]

0.33! 

[TheIzzygurl2]

i met her and live in her hometown. i also watched her perform a jazz routine while she was about five feet away from me. she is an absolutely amazing dancer and you should see her do jazz and acro!! also hip hop...very good. this is coming from a dancer of 11 years. you go Allie!! <3

[Capizio77]

she isn't that good.

[likeafirstday]

such a talented girl ....

[yslalfae]

so dull... but techniques is amazing. She needs more stage presence and energy but she is a good dancer:)

[Capizio77]

@yslalfae

you have exactly pinpointed what she need to work on./

[Capizio77]

@yslalfae

you have exactly pinpointed what she need to work on.

[Capizio77]

she is as skinny in her legs as heck!

[PokemonTCG88]

@Capizio77

[born2dance202]

@xommox234 the dance teacher tht put her on pointe is my dance teacher . she is not too young !!!!!!!!! she has amazingly strong ankles

[coolbeanscd]

Where did she get that ballet costume?

[danceismything2]

what variation is this

[NDBCdancer]

haha this girl goes to my dance school now. i remember watching this video years ago and was amazed by her. then she took one of my classes (different levels), and the teacher called her name and my jaw dropped lol. shes sooooo good.

[boggydance]

at last one girl that is doing a variation suitable for her age. No more Swans, Don Q-s performed by kids.

Really great girl. One thing i'd question the angles on the diagonale but it could be the camera angle

[broadwaynballet]

omg like perfect turnout!! She's very talented! Her lines are flawless!!

[373b]

エスメラルダの子と似てる

[Ma11Ai3]

She has great stage presence ! She really seems to enjoy dancing.

[S2Brendinhah]

uau

[kzoltenko]

absolutely amazing!!!! especially at such a young age. i am speechless

[acrad222]

what variation is this??? or music anyhow?

[vani11a5]

@acrad222

It is the variation from "Pas de deux classique," a pas inserted into an 1884 revival of Giselle by Petipa. The music is by Minkus. There were two clips on youtube of this variation being performed, one by Natalya Arkhipova at the 1983 Moscow IBC, and one by a student at a gala performance (I want to say this was a Bolshoi student but I'm not sure). Unfortunately, the clips have been pulled off for whatever reasons. The choreography has been simplified from the original version.

[roven101]

SHE IS AMAZING especially for her age but she doesn't turn out in all of her turns :( surprisingly.

[yessy33141]

I know her i am her best friend. I dance with her.

[NeffiLoca]

her control and extensions are absolutely out of this world (ESPECIALLY for her age).

definitely a dance world star.

[rolovebloom]

:) awesome

[lilyoungman08]

what variation is this ?

[danceguy100]

does anybody know how old she was when she was in this competition????

[sydbutt109]

she's like one of my really good friends.

i dance too, but not nearly as well as her.

[TheJenna1]

@sydbutt109 do you know how old Allie Parsons was when she started going on point

[LiveAndBreatheBallet]

That was beautiful! great job

[pointeoflife]

[ashleybrownluver]

[danceguy100]

she is going to have an amazing career

p.s. she's better than most of you guys will ever be

[kbtdancer1222]

Why does this only have 4 stars?? :) It is waaayyy too amazing for that!

[kbtdancer1222]

[dansedu92]

A very good-turned-out, pirouettes, pointe-work...She's so graceful,with long thin legs...Please,how old is she?

[mrlopez2681]

this is from the pas de deux that Minkus wrote for insertion into Marius Petipa's revival of "Giselle" in 1884 for the ballerina Maria Gorshenkova.

[mrlopez2681]

I am refering to the music, not the choreography.

[abbasillar]

she should come to royal

[dancercrazy232]

She is way too good for you guys!

[PinkyPieWatermelon]

Me and Allie are like Best Friends I have her number and everything ... she's amazing when u get to know her!!!

[tehblogger]

hi

jjj

[henleyrox13]

she is amazing!!!

[ballet4evernever]

everything was perfect. shes amazing but i think in her pirouttes she should spot more.

[westinsouth10]

She is so good with the footwork!

[EverybodyLOVESAero]

I go to school w/ Allie she is one of my good friends so yeah if Aliie is watching "hi"

[eb64755]

she is awesome. great job!

[lrose10]

wow...shes amazing!

what variation is this?

[MissBallet0128]

gosh, isn't she dizzy? doing all those pirottoes I mean?

[SvetlanaJr]

amazing flexibility, great potential, but yes, her arms. i think she'd be able to turn much more if she held her arms :)

other than that, she's quite amazing!

[DancerAmanda123]

shut up ppls shes amazing i say she has a wonderful future ahead and you go girl!!

[dancercrazy232]

bad arms in all pirouettes

[hillsongunitedfan01]

jealous much?!?

[philom5]

yeah right, why would she be jealous of her pirouettes if she thinks her arms are bad?! THINK!!!

[arinabehappyXD]

ya i know jealousy never gets you eny were

[odettekitri]

actually i think her arms in pirouettes are lovely, she couldn't turn if her arms were bad, don't you think?

[xommox234]

shes amazing but i think shs a little to young to be o pointe

[Balletgirlhopepointe]

@xommox234 actually there are some girls in my dance class who were at age ten to go en pointe.

[CharnwoodDancer]

Her extension was amazing!

[professionalballet]

Allie is a wonderful dancer. I love spending time with her. I take class with her everyday.

[MissBallet0128]

em?

[Puppyluv987]

She did Clara this season in the radio city christmas show... I saw her today and she was amazing!

[idinaBALLET]

very nice... and great extensions!

[Musicman1928]

did u guys know that she goes to my school

[RainbowNecklace]

WOWZERS!! but she does have to go completely on her box when she is on pointe

[Ninjerina]

those extensions were amazing! although, I too wonder which ballet that is because usually the classics dont require (nor often like) extending that high, doesnt make as beautiful of a line.

[cocobean0207]

go allie!!! i want to be as good as you one day!!!

-Shaina

p.s. i competed against her also, and she rightfully won...... of course. :)

[lilsxythang9]

[Nawtiies]
