    OMG she's too encaptivating. You just can't get enough of her dancing. There is no one in this world or has been that is this good. She's practically flawless - she creates pictures when she dances. The eyes see many things when she dances. One just wants to live and breath her. She's what all dance tutors have been wanting to see from everyone that aspires to be a dancer. She will go down in history - well she should.

      Agent lost girl Naturally, I guess she would be. She feels through her movement. Many dancers think that expression is about pulling that stereotypical face and really trying hard to over over stretch. However, with her it's all natural as though it was a natural calling to dance. It's easy for her to emote feelings through her movements.

      Cayla Prima She has an interesting story, to literally come from a war-torn country to rise to the upper echelons of a very insular world. That’s something to aspire to. Most dancers have been coached, prodded and cajoled to excellence from an early age. Her natural talent is what guided her from a late start. I am in no way interested in ballet but she inspires me just because of her dedication and perseverance. That’s worth talking about!

    I read her book, and I relate to a small degree, because I'm a dancer and have been since I was 4. I've never been that good-but I love dancing, and seeing her absolute attention to every detail in her movement but making it look so natural at the same time is just amazing. After all the struggles she's gone through, it's amazing to see this.

      Annah Stevenson what does the color of her shoes have to do with “black lives matter” and all that? 😂 like i stg someone could do anything just as good as a white person and people would be like “WOW THE BLACK GIRL DID SO MUCH BETTER BECAUSE SHES BLACK.” like there are thousands of white ballerinas who have trained their whole lives and they get barely any recognition while someone who is black dances for a couple years and is world famous because apparently black people are discriminated when really people tend to like them more because of “trauma of discrimination” that they’re great great great great great great aunt went through. like, ok white ppl have moved on but apparently a lot of black ppl haven’t because everyone always sets lower standards for themselves as black people and everyone says “omg she did this and she’s black” like get over it pretending that they are better because of the color of they’re skin is bullshit. everyone is capable of the same thing. she is there because of hard work not because she has darker skin and brown pointe shoes.

      @@idk_what_to_put_here-dk6bj The person was just stating their opinion and complementing the dancer and showing pride for black people. I feel like you were being a little too dramatic over the fact someone just wanted to compliment a dancer's shoes and showing support for black people. I feel like white people and black people equally get respect in the dance world no matter what age, gender, sexuality or nationality so there is no need to get upset over a person's opinion.😁 P.S. Not many dancers are black and no matter what race people across the globe has shown improvement and committed their whole life to dancing barely even getting a childhood or going to college. Everyone has their opinions , but there is no need to be upset over small details.

  • @Rhionafarley
    @Rhionafarley 8 лет назад +183

    Perhaps it's just an unintentional bias on my part but a lot of the solo ballerina's I've seen have had at least parts of their dances covering themselves, sort of closed off and trying to protect or shield. I've seen that posture in plenty of places, but not here. No part of this beautiful performance felt closed off or shielded. It was beautiful.

    • @Wakeupgrandowl
      @Wakeupgrandowl 7 лет назад +22

      It's true - her arms never folded, crossed and pulled in as if to protect from harm and retreat, pull close something desperately. No, she was open the whole time. It felt powerful, but vulnerable (not in the sense you wanted to hold her and comfort her, like the folding in posture) but in the sense she could be attacked for displaying herself openly. It was an interesting feeling.

    I remember watching her in the documentary "First Position"...her talent was evident back then. The world became a little dimmer. Rest in peace to her and her mother.

    watching this, I feel like I understood the idea of "practice." Every motion, every gesture, every flex DePrince makes in this video represents years of dedication. Is only possible because of hours upon hours of labor spent practicing. She's flawless here, and I can feel the weight of time that she must have given to her art.

    Her movements are so supple, delicate, graceful & well balanced = beautiful dancer. Rip Michaela De Prince you will eternally be an inspiration.

    This girl is amazing. Saw an article about her on Facebook and read it then decided to look her up on you tube. I had never heard of her but she is fantastic. Such a pity her birth parents never got the chance to know how telented she is but good on her adoptive parents.

    So sad. Such a loss. I adopted two sons. Cannot imagine the unimaginable. One just shouldn’t loose one’s children. My condolences to her parents. Hope they find solace in the fact that she at least was able to fulfill her dream. ❤ 🙏

    My 5 year old girl and I discovered Michaela DePrince when we found her book Ballerina Dreams. We’ve read it over and over and over, and watched videos of her dancing, the same way. My daughter keeps asking when she will get to see Michaela in person. I don’t know how to tell her. Heartbroken. What strength and grace together.
