Summer Workshop 2 Solo - 2009

My 13 yo son participated in a second 1 week summer workshop at his home studio. This solo was a demonstration of a dance he learned that week with Nurlan & Aygul Abougaliev, from the Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre.

Definitely can see a change from when he was 11 (but then we should!). He looks very strong for 13, but as other have said, he should now work on his demi-pointe and work through his feet all the time. Keep at it though - looking promising :-)

Amazing!! he really improved :)

i watched his video at 11. he has improved alot, but he should work on his positions and hands still a little more. his hands look dead. and positions are 6th. good enough is if he is like standing at home in 5th position for like 10 min then other leg and so on with other positions.

Thank you for these vids. My almost 6 year old is looking at branching out to ballet from the jazz he's been doing, and he's loving being able to watch male ballet dancer's to get an idea of what it's all about. :)

Your kid has improved a great deal! Congratulations, you´ve got a very talented child!

I wish my father was a bit more like you

This guy has an extremely elegant position. He needs to improve his technique, but that is "only" hard work :). Elegance is something you have or you don't and he definetely has it!!

good variation choice. improvement since first posted video. He needs to point his foot immediately as it leaves the floor, and work on lifting his arches. I am a boy the same age. He could get a lot of help at central pennsylvania youth ballet, and Boston Ballet. I did not get stronger until I was in more competitive classes with other boys.Keep up the hard work.
