Sleeping Beauty Fairies!

Here is a video of multiple Song Bird Fairy variations from Sleeping beauty. The first one is from the 80s and they continue until like 2006. Very cool to see how everything changes over time.

This Guy is Pretty Cool...

I found this video on youtube on Dwight Phillips. He is a long jumper and an Olympian. I clicked on this video because of the title; "Practice makes Permanent." This is exactly what my ballet teacher tells me all the time. He doesn't talk about it until around 2:26...so skip to then if you don't want to watch the whole video.

A Very Helpful Person

In ballet the obvious, main hairstyle is the bun. However, the French Twist is also a good one to know how to do. Doing a French Twist with long hair may seem practically impossible (if you're someone like me who has tried and failed many times), but this youtube video has literally saved my life. Enjoy!

Evgenia Obraztsova

I just realized I have not yet made a post congratulating Evgenia Obraztsova for her promotion to a Bolshoi principal dancer! It was a well deserved promotion and I wish her the best for the future! I have attached below the links to a few videos of her. The first one is her in Swan Lake, then Don Quixote, and finally (ready for this?) Sandy from Greece!
