Just because she is tall, with long and legs does not make her a Balanchine "ballerina". She doesn't dance close to any of Balanchine muses! Go watch Suzanne Ferrell or Heather Watts... And then tell me if she even dances close to that style!

I think she needs more control and sophistication of expression
-
she's very graceful
-
@4Brackens HAve you seen Ashley Bouder or Tiler Peck do this? They win big time! Its not about extension or flexibility, its about musicality and style, and artistry! Alina cannot compare to NYCB dancers!
-
@danielconover1 Umm have you seen NYCB dancers do this? They could do this better 50 years ago! Nobody can do Balanchine better than the people who were trained by Balanchine himself!

I wouldn't say she's the most debated dancer, I wouldn't call her a DANCER. To say she's a dancer entails calling this a performance, and I refuse to do so. This is merely a student recital, a final exam maybe. People examine/observe/evaluate her instead of enjoying her. I can appreciate her effort but it is not anywhere near the standard this choreography asks for.

「チャイコフスキー・パ・ド・ドゥ」よりヴァリアシオンII / 中～上級by PRINTGAKUFU4,380 views
she is not the ultimate Balanchine ballerina and it is apparent in her lack of musicality. this role was created on Violette Verdy, the French muse of Mr. B because she was the most musical dancer her ever knew! Alina is so far from the musicality required in this piece that it inhibits her performance instead of augmenting it. the accent is always on the downbeat (the 1) never the "and" and that's why she looks awkward and unpolished. to dance Balanchine you have to know MUSIC!!!!!

Fouette remain Alina’s Achilles’’ heel. As far as everything else she is *the* ultimate Balanchine Ballerina. Balanchine favored daring off-centre movements, open hips, separated fingers and positively unrounded arms and foremost ORIGINALITY.
