'Oxygen' Sergei Polunin

Why do I dance? Why do you breathe?
Dance is oxygen.

Music: "Finding Melody" by Gavin Luke

Born in Kherson, Ukraine in 1989, Sergei Polunin / Сергей Полунин is a Russian ballet dancer. Famous for his "once every hundred years" talent, he has incredulous elevation and impeccable technique. From an early age, he displayed glorious dramatic range. Home videos of him as a small boy improvising to Pavarotti are very foretelling. At age 19, he became the youngest ever male principal dancer with London's Royal Ballet company.

Ballet gained an unprecedented new awareness when he danced in Hozier's viral video "Take Me To Church." People who would never have paid any attention to ballet began to watch the tattooed phenom. He is generally attributed with bringing ballet to the modern common man. Classical, yet cutting edge, Sergei starred in Diesel's "Make Love Not Walls" campaign and has put his mark on many other promotions.

Sergei is a much sought after model and actor. Fashion designers love his breathtaking physique and brooding good looks. He has garnered only positive reviews for his acting. His appearances include Kenneth Branagh's adaptation of the Orient Express, the biographical documentary Dancer, The White Crow, and Red Sparrow.

I have never been moved to tears by watching a man dance. His movements bring out so many emotions in me. Sergei is the definition of movement with grace and power

I'm fading into the depths of terminal brain cancer. Long ago are my dancing days.
Sergei has brought the joy back, in dance, for me. He's absolutely breathtaking. GOD BLESS YOU & YOUR BEAUTIFUL FAMILY.
YOU DID IT. Please save a dance, my last dance( with you), in Heaven.

Now many young ballet dancers have great technical abilities. BUT! Polunin, s talent to express, Polunin, s talkative arms are above any comparisons. As always my wishes of the very best for him and a lot of thanks to Pam.

Смотреть можно бесконечно. Поцелованый Богом . Балетный век короток. Но у Сергея много интересных замыслов. Ждём их осуществления. Ковид всех артистов наказал. Борись Сергей, искусство на твоей стороне.

The exquisite details and precision of these movements is riveting. I have never seen a dancer like Polunin with the power to move me to the depths of my soul. Perhaps he could inspire the world if it gave him the chance.

I've been watching him dance for 3 days straight ! I had never heard of him. I don't follow Balllet. I watched his movie DANCER... I've become addicted. I've binge watched this man. He's painting. He's sculpting. He's living and dying at the same time. He's not just dancing... He's Bleeding. He's feeling, finding, searching, and losing.. he's lost. There is no love in his life. He IS LOVED.. but he's very alone. I've become obsessed. I've read so many articles and interviews he's given. The word "complicated" does not begin to define or explain him. He's truly a child. He never played with other kids.. he's never had a true girlfriend. He's had lovers but no likers. He was sent here with a specific purpose. To find himself. He's been on that hunt for self from the very first breath he took. His world is so empty yet filled to the brim with chaos and fans and sooo many vultures and sycophants and wannabes and takers trying to suck the very life out of him. I hope, with all my ❤ that he succeeds.When he truly finds himself... can you even BEGIN to to imagine that? We've only seen tiny pieces of his gifts. When he does finally achieve what he's looked so hard to find....Oh that will be a sight to behold. I hope I'm still around to see it.

That made me cry 😢. Never has a dancer spoken to my heart so truly!.
