It's so great to see examples of supreme talent shared in one family. When they're paired, they're like a single dancing organism . . . brilliant! Brava! Bravo!

How exceptional to have brother and sister BOTH reach such heights! Furthermore, they are lovely together as a partnership as seen in this challenging pas de deux. The fish dives out of double pirouettes are superb! Few principals perform these on stage.
Interesting. I thought Makarova revived the original fall there but it seems I've still seen quite a few companies stay with the fish dives. Maybe it defends on the dancers.
@@minissa2009 I can attest to how much I hated learning those en dedans turns into the fish dive, and they are generally one armed. Mostly because they came from slightly behind me and as a student they were frightening to say the least. Eventually I got them but as you say it depends and in this case sometimes on your partner also.
Wow, I can just imagine proud parents in the audience- could you imagine how they would feel. Just bursting with pride , and rightly so. Just a beautiful display of ballet 🩰. Thankyou 🩰🩰🩰🩰🙏🙏👵🇦🇺
I'm sitting here in tears and I'm watching on my phone traveling in a car where I'm having to hum the music. She is absolutely glorious. I fell in love with her a few years ago when I saw her do that difficult allegro from T&V and have tried to follow her since. She keeps growing and refining her approach and reminds me here of my forever dance goddess Martine van Hamel. Thanks for posting!
. . . Well, you might just feel peace and love and then some romance ❤😊! And Tchaikovsky's incredible music makes you long for a candlelit dinner, . . with some red roses 🌹🌹🌹 to scent the air 😊! Excellent technique and beautiful balance en pointe by Maia Makhateli ❤❤❤; and David Makhateli makes a great, princely partner ❤❤❤!! Most awesome brother-sister dance performance, indeed ❤❤❤❤❤. Thank you as always @TheBunduBallerina ❤😊.
не поняла, из какого театра они. Но какая красивая пара. От девочки глаз не могла оторвать. А потом и парня рассмотрела. Благодарю за удовольствие, полюбовалась красотой.
Spasiba. The theatre that Maia Makhateli is from is the Dutch National Ballet. She is a prima ballerina there. Her older brother, David, is a retired star of the Royal Ballet Opera House in London. Thank you for your appreciation.

Thank you so much. Maia is a favourite but have never really been able to find videos of her brother, and such a talented family.
Thank you too!
Stunningly beautiful!
