  • She does a simple pique arabesque with meaning, not just a step. She creates a world around her and has awareness of it. A pas de deux should look like this, a dialogue between a man and a woman. She will re invent all the classics, the steps will look fresh no matter how old and steeped in tradition they are and have new meaning, exactly what Callas did with Bel canto. This is Bel dancing by Shapran, *La Divina* of the Mariinsky. I absolutely love her. You can't teach what she has.

  • She is absolutely divine. Surely to have a very successful career ahead of her.

  • I didn't know Audrey Hepburn came back to life and started dancing. I nearly cried when she did that arabesque

  • Please upload all the vaganova performance 2011, i love it!

  • That is great! Great! Bravo!

  • @sweetaliena You won't regret it, it is a magical place. To see Sleeping Beauty is the theatre for which it was created is just awesome.

  • @Buondelmonte123 Kovaleva is definitely definitely a wonderful coach with understanding and compassion for her pupils.The world needs more like her.

  • @Buondelmonte123 LOL It must be with the high level of corruption there. I just want to see at least one performance at the Mariinsky.
