Dancers having fun Ep 1: Vasiliev performs Kitri Variation

In this new series we'll show you how even the greatest ballerinas, dancers and performers can have fun. Because Ballet is technique, discipline and training, but it's also joy! Many dancers tend to take themselves too seriously, but you don't need to do that to be great! ;)

[Bootmahoy]

I cried I was laughing so hard. Just brilliant.

Какие прыжки!!! А какая роза на голове! Дал фору всем примам!

[virgiltheghost]

ok I know this is played for laughs so it’s technically scuffed on purpose, and god would I kill to see him do the original variation full out, but as a former dancer I’m twice as impressed with this version.
Like it’s one thing to be bad at a routine or certain steps and perform anyways, but this due is definitely hamming up the bit for the laugh, which is SO MUCH HARDER TO PULL OFF THAN THE ORIGINAL DANCE.
he’s clunky and on purpose, but makes it look natural and it’s just wickedly impressive to me

Ванечка, безусловно, являет собой ярчайшую страницу в истории русского балета!!! Браво!!!

That is the manliest Kitri I have ever seen! lol

[wyslannikRM]

Oh this just made my day, watched 3 times in a row ;) And the jumps! ;))

The interpretive quality of Ivan Vasiliev is spectacular. All the drama in "Le jeunne homme et la morte" and in this one performs all the humor and waste of sympathy. Without forgetting all his strength in the "golden idol". ¡¡¡CHAPEAUX!!!

[forevermetal]

I've always said how Dancers defy gravity. This was truly AMAZING! The leaps was incredibly magnificent and proves that Dancing is what they were BORN TO DO!!! NYC😮

[richardcleveland]

Stunning! Vasiliev was AB-SO-FREAKIN-LUTE-LY stunning! Wowza!
