  • I'm around the same age as these girls and have done ballet all of my life. I'm around the same size as them and eat alot of calories! If you think they have to starve themselves to get that body, you're wrong, they are doing one of the highest calorie burning sports in the world everyday at an elite standard. They are all muscle...look at those jumps they do...do you really think they could jump that high if they were starving theselves?

  • My daughter is the same age as these girls, and she studies the same syllabus (in the U.S., but she does the exact exercises shown here), and she has this body type. She eats and eats including desserts! She eats a lot of healthy foods including bread, pasta, pizza, ice cream, salad, sandwiches, oatmeal, fruit, etc. She kept a food journal for a high school project, and believe me, she eats plenty of calories!

  • do you do point work in grades????

  • Such loud sounds after they jump ..

  • Comment removed

  • older than 12/13...

  • how old are they? how long have they been dancing? What do they EAT?

  • How do you imagine they dance for so many hours each day surviving on nothing? No - these girls have to eat well.

  • they havent been dancing for 5 years because they're showing a professional school so they've been dancing for more. This is grade 5, professional school.

  • @ifeeldirty 5th grade doesnt mean that they have been dancing for 5 years...

  • @small006 you know, in my country, ballet schools are like regular school - 5th grade means 5 years in school. but sorry if i'm wrong :)

  • To figure out the age of the students who go to the Vaganova Academy, or the Bolshoi you add 9 or 10 to the grade, so these girls are 14/15 years old.

  • Great picture of Nureyev, nice dancing too

  • hey can any1 tel me how u get into this school were it is (country city) what grade you have to be and how you get intouch with them???? THANKS pls answer.

  • its in st. petersburg, russia.

  • thanks. do u know any in europe? (ballet schools)

  • st. petersburg is in russia...or do you mean schools in europe that have the same training??

  • well if your in england you could try Central School of ballet, if your a bit older there is Rambert or Liverpool Institute of Performing Arts and the Northern School of Contemporary Dance teaches ballet

  • they go to boarding school there? or do they come home everyday? and does anybody know how long their classes are? thanks

  • It is a boarding school. Most of their classes are probably about 1.5hours to 2hours long. From what I remember my teacher telling me.
