@theprimadancer101 What's your point? Can hold an a la seconde and twist my head and pretend it is a super high arabesque? Sure, but I prefer holding a real arabesque.

Yeah, but can you balance and hold your leg thigh with precision.

Batalov is no doubt a great dancer, but come on. That's just a moderately high a la seconde at 0:02 with head turned to side pretending it's an arabesque.
The purpose and the aesthetics of the arabesque is to show the narrow profile of the leg and torso. Here we get to see the wide frontal of the torso and leg and foot. There's a good reason you hide the heel on the working leg in arabesque. That's how you get the long contour of the arabesque.

-

@Leonnidik yes it's very nice :P it's not an "arabesque" competetion, its a performance! :P
As a professional ballet dancer for 20 years with the best companies I have never seen a better arabesque on a boy dancer. A wonderful artist.

He is the best male dancer in Kirov and never has been promoted to principal. Can somebody enlighten me about this act of unjustice???!!! He should be considered as the best male dancer of the last 10 years!! At least in Russia, which is practically to say in the rest of the world, as well!
