  • Well the first time I was on the pointes, I was 6. I had been dance ballet 6 days a week and 4 hours a day. It hurts first week ... but if you really want to dance ballet there is no limit for age to be on the pointes

  • Squee spree at 4:09!!! So cute!

  • i am 12 and in pointe but i wish i had there ankles !!!!1

  • Wow. That's all I can say. They must work very hard.

  • These girls must have an amazing teacher as well!

  • yesterdey i densed to it too, great vid, greetings from silesia!!

  • I had this playing to dub step...cooling thing ever o.O

  • Gonna go practice my pirouettes now, be right back..lol :D

  • Wonderful and beautiful. Love this so much. The very very tall girl with long sleeves, is she only 15 years old??? She is extremely tall and graceful:they all are:) but she looks the most accomplished of all I assume because she's the oldest.

  • This is mesmerizing and fantastic; I have to watch it at least once a day:) Bravo to the teacher of these incredible girls:) Those toe hops just blow my mind!!!!

  • They are wonderful dancers !

  • did anyone else go and practise their piruettes after this?

    

  • That's what I call beautiful technique! How long you have been taking Ballet?

  • I've been doing ballet for 8 years and im not even en pointe, how can a six year old be en pointe????

  • @PointeDreams123 These 6 years old girls are doing ballet class and rehearsal 6 days per week (3-4hours everyday). What about you? If you're doing ballet class 2-3 times per week I'm - as a teacher - will say you no points! Our children are strong enogh for points

  • @PointeDreams123 its called dedication

  • @PointeDreams123 My daughter started ballet just a couple of months ago and her teacher said she will be ready for pointe in September, maybe before; its subjective. It all depends on how strong the feet and ankles are. Everyone is different.

  • I wish they had a larger classroom..... they are amazing!!!!

  • I am pointe this year and i really wish can do these moves!!!!!!!!!

  • How do you do the hops En Pointe? I've tried but I'm not sure the technique.

  • these dancers are incredible, but they have not yet developed technique and control. I am worried for thier feet. I love the music! I am so amazed that the last girl kept her fouettes going after that little hop- she really had the rythm!

  • Amazing, I loved it<3 But may I ask why 6 year olds are on Pointe?

  • what's a good weight and hight for a ballet dancer?

  • i like how the boy just does cartwheels.

    and: the music sounds like it's from a wes anderson film! awesome.

  • That was flawless, go Russia!:)

  • can you please tell me how to do hops on pointe? at my ballet school we don't do them and I don't want to try it without the technique..

  • @Estertje93 They are very difficulte - so, don't try them withour "yes" of you teacher

  • I'm to heavy to join this school :(

  • @GreenPandaGirl12345 welcome to the club :)

  • @sammonster96 We have different children in our school, but most of them - thiny. But it doesn't mean that other children can't to join us. If they are talanted -welcome!

  • can fat people join your school?

  • @CrazyForPianosGirl Why not? But no more 50 kg. Because of partnering rules

  • @petrovasuper 50 kg is NOT fat!

    

  • @midasmidas1 Rules for partnering - no more then 50 kg

  • I love the music and the dancing. Just wow.

  • how much does it cost to go to your school

  • @curlyhairfreak30 It depends on how long will you be in our school. If you are interested - our e-mail is balletschool@mail.ru

  • Woow those girls on pointe are sooooooo young.

  • wooowww....that is stunning.

  • I'm surprised the 6 year old is allowed to do point. I thought 12 was when point started.

  • their turns are amazing! :O

  • wow...just wow

  • Tremendous!!

  • that little 6 year old in the very begining...

  • I think their training is amazing!!!

  • aaa

  • Shocked! Three secrets of improving your ballet!! website: bal.nn.cx

  • The Russians appreciate the fine arts!

  • Is there still a specific body type students must have? For example, the ABT soloist Misty Copeland has a different body type but she is an amazing dancer, would she still be able to come to the school?

  • @MimisaysRAWR Different countries, different faces, different tipes of body - I'm sure, this is absolutelly normal

  • @MimisaysRAWR I'm a male dancer something I've noticed dancing in other places is that american companies usually have fat dancers (fat in comparision with russian or french dancers) they also have black dancers who are pure muscle and look bigger

  • @MimisaysRAWR There are deffinatly desired body types for ballet for eample long limbs, slim build, sway back legs (hard to manage but nice to look at) good arches, the right height an so on, but there are acceptions to the rules darcey bussell 5ft 9 really tall, misty has big boobs an is short, maria kochetkova 5 ft! and margot fonteyn didnt have perfect turn out, or insane legs, she was abit wider than typical ballerinas but she was a prima way in to her 60's.anyone can be amazing like them!

  • this is just points

  • @Miana5street Not just points, this is composition of Russian wellknown choreographer L. Jakobson

  • @petrovasuper good 4 u... :/

  • @Miana5street what do you mean just pointe? there are all these gruelling fouettes and grands. ballet is never as easy as you think it is. its art form in how us ballerinas can hide the pain of standing uncomfortably on our toes with a radiant smile.

  • Hands down, Russians are like the chuck norris' of the ballet world

  • not too keen about the music but i love the dancers.. the combination was so cute!

  • Some of the things the older girls were doing blew me away o.O

  • wow. O.o

  • Oh geez, the little girl at 1:10

  • Is there a fee for non-Russian students to attend? Great Video!

  • @scgalhjl Yes, but it's not very expensive

  • @petrovasuper Thank you!!

  • @1992chiara1 Hai perfettamente ragione!!! E inoltre il metodo Vaganova lascia anche fare moltissimi virtuosismi e da questo video si vede!!! Sono bravissime!! Hai ragione anche sul fatto che in Russia la danza è presa con più serietà rispetto ad altri paesi.... Bravissime!!

  • Look, their Russian.... Russian r better than us- it's fair. I'm sure all of u know that

  • i hope their very serious about ballet this is a talent they can't give up

  • @midnightpanda That would be echappé sauté battu. I love those!

  • what grade are them?

  • @aleneren2001 Different

  • absolutely stunning but 6 years old is too young :/

  • They're brilliant on pointe! But 6 years old is way too young.

    Btw, at 1:57 I was like wtf?

  • Sono perfette, il metodo Vaganova lavora sulla tecnica al massimo livello., ma quella ragazzina che fa trentamila fuettes,.. bah.. è semplicemente angelica. in Russia la danza è sempre fatta con serietà incredibile, cosa che spesso e volentieri negli altri posti non succede....

  • Simple amazing...

  • wow that gırls young ıve only just started poınt and ım 13

  • wow, great job everyone!

  • Everyone did a wonderful job :) Beautiful...All your hard work and practicing is paying off beautifully :)

  • how old is this girl, doing the piroets at 2:44 ?

  • I doubt that a six yr old spends enough time in the studio to have reached a pointe level yet? Overall great video, more aarm control would have pushed it to AMAZING

  • this is so amazing

  • СУПЕР!

  • How much do they train? They're all amazing!

  • those crazy russians!!! ahah aammaaaazzziinnngg :p

  • where did you get the song? What is it called?

  • @brenfroe402 It's Bach in modern interpretation

  • I agree best ballet video ever, and I am a man

  • @92Dario92 Thank you!

  • @petrovasuper Are you in the video?????????

  • @KiliniLove No, I'm a teacher!)))

  • wow you're all amazingg

  • Best ballet video ever!

  • @NellyTubbie Thank you!)))

  • my God they are perfect !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    and I can not do a pirouette in the right shoe tip!

  • their form is amazing! they're fantastic!

  • awfull taste. but they're very good dancers

  • Amazing !! ;D

  • i love how the older girls are amazing but the 6 year olds are like noisey but wow they were still good!!!! AMAZING!

  • @almamilania O, thank you!

  • They all need to turn out more in their pique turns. They are all amazing though!

  • @gnorroh She is 6 here, now she is 8

  • Wow... and I was proud that I can do the hops from Kitri en pointe. I can't even manage two fouettes and i can do double pirrouettes. En pointe I mean

  • that little girl is better than me n im 16

  • how young is that little girl so cute

  • Loved the video and thank you for sharing but may I very gently pose a question? Is the intrinsic musculature of the two youngest girls en pointe really strong enough for pointe work?

  • Ответить на это видео...Yes, I'm their ballet teacher, and i can tell - yes, these two girls are ready for points

  • what was the type of jump the little girl does? the one where it seems like her legs are switching back and forth?

  • @midnightpanda I don't understand what do you mean exactely?

  • @petrovasuper It's at 1:13

    

  • @midnightpanda Ok, I'll see

  • @midnightpanda Are they plies, is that what you mean; the other jumps she does across the floor are sissones.

  • oh how id love to be a russian ballerina..

  • How long have all these girls been on pointe? i have been on pointe for 3 months and i can do a piroutee and pose turns... i want to do this stuff so badly! I would LOVE to dance at you school :)

  • wow

    

  • woow one of the girls i wayyyyyyyyy tooo young to be on pointe !!!!!!!!!è!

  • WOW!!!!! How old is the boy? How many students do yuo have?

  • @25aglbas97 Here the boy is 11 or 12. We have about 30 students different ages

  • How fast could you make me that amazing?

  • @AfroBella2106 How old are you?

  • @petrovasuper I just turned 15.

  • very very good!!! if i am in russia anytime soon and you have a performance i will definitely come!!! your students all seem to love dancing more than anything and because they are very professional for their ages they will be principals when they grow up and maybe even the girls will be prima ballerina assoluta

  • @mliaab Thank you very much!

  • @petrovasuper no problem!! the little girl at the beginning is Lada right?? She is going to turn out to be a fantastic ballerina!! I cant belive that she can do 32 fouettes en pointe!! Absolutley my favorite dancer from your school!!!

  • how old is that little girl at the beginning?

  • @HunterJumperChick19 Thats lada, shes 6

  • @TheseLittleRoses Yes, that's right, now she is 8

  • I love it! ...so amazing! I love how they dance with such a happy energy, they really seem to be enjoying themselves and they make everything they do look so free, effortless and easy! Beautiful, well done! :D

  • wow! that was spectacular! the boy was.... nothing like the rest of them. but they were all amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • these girls dance beautifully!!! is the little girl Lada??

  • those 2 little girls are sooo cute

  • WOW :O these girls are an inspiration to anyone who wishes to become a professional dancer !!! She was six and en pointe over here in Scotland you wouldent dream of putting someone that young on pointe because they are not strong enough. But if you work hard enough you can reach that potential to become rising stars like these kids ! Bravo !

  • @Princesspointeballet Than you very much!

  • simply amazing, I wish was in the area!

  • My eyes were glued to the screen the whole time.

  • That is so creepy, the step that lady does from 0:41 to 0:44 I dreamt about a different girl doing that the other day having never seen it before!

  • wow u girls danced so beautifully keep it up!! :)

  • wow im in awe of this video the little girls so cute and on pointe ..they are better than me lol i want u to teach me too lol but way to far also this may be a stupid question but is it vaganova? our school teaches Royal Academy of Dance and Cecchetti syllabus ..dont get me wrong they are great and we also have some vaganova too with a certain teacher AWESOME VIDEO LOVE TO SEE MORE!!

  • I especially like the turns using intentional foot flex, beginning around 3:08--very cute, & that young lady looks like a real star on the rise. They all look very good, & as if they're really enjoying themselves so much! Congratulations on your talented, obviously hard-working students, & the great work you've done with them. Interesting, how 'received wisdom' on appropriate age to start pointe work has changed so much recently. Minds should stay open, & practice rest on fact & evidence.

  • @AvalonMorley Thank you very much!

  • I would do anything to go to your school! But i live so far away from Russia.

    I am 13 years old, do you think it's too late to start? my dream is to be a ballerina.

    

  • @Kathyythe it's a little bit late to start, but I know some very good dancers, who started at 14!

  • @Kathyythe It's never too late to start, but it's too late to start like... bieng a ballerina for a living. Ballet is more about hard work then talent. It's a lot of fun :) wish I still did it.

  • This is great, but ALL of their turns seem to be on the right. Can they turn to the left too?

  • @sbbw98 Yes, of course? on the lesson we do everyday different turns both sides - it's a performans, so turns only to the right side

  • @petrovasuper okay, that makes sense. I guess now that I think about it you don't see too many left sided pirrouettes/fouettes in performances. They're all really good. Do you always put the kids on pointe when they are so young?

  • @sbbw98 Now, on points can be only the person, hwo is ready for it.

  • is the little boy Lada's brother? they look sort of alike

  • the six year old en pointe..... amazing haha

    this was incredible!

  • Wow, you're amazing guys!

  • OMG I WISH I COULD HAVE BEEN 6 IN POINTE!!!

  • You all did a beautiful job! What is the name of the music that you used?

  • @muddpuddle49 Thank you! This is I. Bach

  • Watching this has really been amazing!

    For those wondering what music this is, I believe it is a variation of "Christ, unser Herr, zum Jordan kam (Clav" by Bach. This specific version is by Jacques Loussier.

    Here's a link to someone playing it on youtube: /watch?v=fZljvdQrXuU

  • Very good and cute! But a 6 year old on pointe? All I have to say about that is owwwwww

  • @emmaraldgreen She's strong enough for points, believe me! I'm her teacher

  • @petrovasuper Oh, I bet! Russian ballerinas are the best of the best! Great job, your dancers are beautiful :) I wish I could spot even half as well as they do!

  • @emmaraldgreen all you have to see now is that little 6 year old Lada Sartakova (now 8) performing the entire of swan lake in the lead role. check it out, most amazing thing i have ever seen. If there was ever a child to go onto pointe at 6 that is her!

  • @4willsey4 Wow....idk why I haven't seen this comment until now. Do you have a link?

  • @emmaraldgreen NOT EVEN JUST owwwww, I doubt that a six yr old spends enough time in the studio to have reached a pointe level yet? I mean come on. Overall, love the video.

  • What is the ballet school called?

  • @95Twinkletoes Ballet school named by L. Jakobson, the leader - V. Kuramshin, Saint-Petersburg, Russia

  • I love this video, all of the ballerinas are fantastic with such grace and beauty, they makes it look effortless

  • MARVELOUS!!!!!!!

  • we can only try to achieve perfection, but we will never get there. The closest we come to perfection in dance is within the soul. And to me, that is what dance is about, not trying to make it into a career, or lifestyle, but to free me soul.

  • The whole video plus the music and everything made it look like a dream sequence! =]

  • Wonderful!! I have NEVER seen anything as great as this!!!

  • 2:44 Woooow that's a lot of spinning!!

  • these are all your students or you have others?

    Why do not you come to Italy to do a stage at my ballet school? :P

  • I just LOVE the little girl at 1:10, she's SOOOO CUTE!!!!!

  • That was SO fun to watch. I was smiling the whole way through! You all are awesome!

  • I am 14 years old and went on point when I was eleven. I would kill to go to your school .. but I live in Denmark, and Russia is so far away .. and my parents would probably never let go of me .... : (and what to study in a normal school? ... and where would I sleep? (how many times a week do you train? and how many students do you have?)

  • @Love2Bbookobsessed3 Ok, you can wrigh me petrovasuper@mail.ru and discuss everything!

  • @Love2Bbookobsessed3 me too but im from the U.S lol
