こういうコンクールで凄く綺麗で上手なのは当たり前なんだろうけどさ、
小さい子がバレエシューズで一生懸命踊ってるのってお姉さん達のポワントで踊る美しさとはまた違った一生懸命さというか、子供らしいものすごく純粋な何かしらの魅力を感じるんですよね。
The 1st girl, Asuka Hara, is only 9 years old and danced with incredible poise, grace, artistry, and technique. Beautiful straight back and straight legs, excellent pointe, high energy, graceful port de bras, high jumps, and sweet expression to match her piece. Bravo little Fairy doll!💖👍👍👍-Love, A fellow ballet dancer😊
Yeah I agree
You are so right on everything! I loved her expressions!
Her expressions were fun to watch, she really told a story!!!🤧💖
Yes!
Yes! ❤I like her!
ちゃんと自分の身体のこと研究してるのが伝わってくる
私もこんなふうに踊れるようになりたい！
It's like having your heart squeezed, watching these dancers and seeing all the potential for their future. Would be great to see them again in 10 years time, for a side by side of the same variation, to see how they grow & perfect the craft.
Wow what a great idea! Hopefully we'll be able to make that happen in the future. All of these kids have such bright futures ahead of them and we are looking forward to see them grow! In the mean time, make sure you're subscribed so you don't miss out on what's to come! Check out these other young talents too ruclips.net/video/mpeJekz_kJU/видео.html ruclips.net/video/k6K3mazDgD0/видео.html
When I first saw Anzu come out on stage and smile, I burst into a fit of giggles...she is sooooo bubbly and has this big bright, shiny smile on the cutest face that's completely genuine, she's also technically excellent too with stunning little hands and light jumps that seem like she's hopping in joy and that costume is giving me victorian vibes 🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Anzu was so amazing in the role of fairy doll!❤️ You might like these other videos of fairy doll that we have on our channel: ruclips.net/video/iXsIKzraeSw/видео.html , ruclips.net/video/BQ0MeMOYJKY/видео.html
Wow... A lot of up and coming stars! The first young lady and her huge personality on stage and technical abilities was a pure joy to watch. All wonderful though 👏👏
Yes! And she is the youngest of all of them! Only 9! I also agree her performance was marvelous and she is very technically skilled for only 9💖
The one who danced Harlequinade in the yellow tutu has something special, for sure. She is using her arms and hands so gracefully.☺️
agree
The first one's turnout is so good! 😍
The second one's balance is so good! 😍
Yes and she is the youngest of them all! Only 9!
@@Star3marie304 I know
19:22 The11th girl Kokomo Ito (Coppelia) was the only one selected to represent Japan from this gifted dozen in the international YAGP which had girls from Russia, Belarus etc. Her moves are picture perfect, smiling all the time. Watch this again in slow motion and it is easy to understand why Kokomo was the chosen one.
And her artistry... Indeed, her moves already make her look like a professional, even though she's only eleven!
She turns like a top!!!! My goodness!!!!😍😍😍❤️❤️
Asuka Hara, Yui Fujita and Kae Osada are the best dancers of the video ♡♡
I love the girl's
🏆👏👏👏❤👏👏👏🏆
Me too,they were amazing.this year Asuka get hope award,Yui get top 12 in classical and Kae get both 1st place in classical and contemporary. All three of them were invited to finals this year.
Asuka and Aika, the first girl and the very last girl to dance who did Fairy doll variations, were my absolute favorites. But all of the dancers were EXCELLENT!! Tough to judge this group, highly, HIGHLY competitive, everyone was so good👌
The one who danced Coppelia was the best of a lovely group of dancers. But she was truly DANCING, not just accurately executing the steps.
agreed, I'm not sure I like that doing that variation is allowed in this competition even not on point (it's for 16+ at Prix de Lausanne, not 14 and 15 year olds), but she did an extremely good job of it
I noticed her too! They are all brilliant, but she and the first girl were my favorites. Impressive technique and lovely expressions to match!
@@cmilus892 Oh yes! I feel the same way:) The very first young dancer was so technically astute for being only 9 years old, and it was her charming personality that fit the innocent & youthful Fairy Doll variation she performed to a T. There are some dancers who may have good technique, but they lack in their acting abilities & facial expressions, and sadly it really shows when they dance in front of an audience. I will never forget what one of my first serious ballet teachers taught us-that a dancer's onstage presence and ability to get into character is just as important as technique(if not more) because at the end of the day, dancing is a Performing Art, you have to go onstage before an audience and perform, not just execute steps. And not only that, but almost all of my coaches would remind us students that when we go onstage to perform, the majority of the audience will NOT be professional dancers or teachers or ballet experts, and so if we maintain good stage presence and use facial expressions to match our onstage roles, if we mess up or forget a little step or something, the audience most likely won't notice it. It's funny because as a serious young ballet student, it's often nerve wracking performing in front of an audience, especially your first few bigger, more legitimate performances, you know the ones I mean, the performances not at high schools or community centers(though nothing is wrong with shows that are performed there! Every dancer has to start somewhere) but I mean the shows that start taking place in real theatres and concert halls, and gradually get a bit more upscale as you continue working hard and advancing and moving up, so do the arenas you dance in, and along with that also comes classier clientele who will gladly pay a higher priced box office ticket because these audiences are now also getting more upscale, which means they have more money to spend, and also means they are more likely to care more seriously about the art of ballet and will be a bit more cultured perhaps. Still, I remember my teacher saying, "don't let this fancier auditorium/theatre unnerve you. Just concentrate on your variations and don't forget to have fun," she would remind us. She would also say "no matter what, even if you forget an entire 16 count of your piece or if your hairpiece God forbid falls out during your pique turns and jetés and flies across the stage, keep smiling. No matter what, just keep smiling. "Don't get me wrong", she would say next with a slightly menacing tone " I expect nothing less than perfection from each of you. You all have worked so hard for so long on this show and it would be an utter shame if it did not go as we have rehearsed. "But," she would say, now a bit softer, "accidents can and do happen, even if every rehearsal has gone perfectly. I'm not saying this to make you anxious. This is to relax you so you won't absolutely freak out and break character or run off stage or freeze. Remember to use your beautiful faces," and then she would conclude, saving the most important words for last, on purpose, of course, "If you use your facial expressions the way me and your teachers have taught you, the vast majority of the audience will be too focused looking at your FACES and your EXPRESSIONS and they will be so intent on the story you are trying to tell, that if you do make a mistake in your footwork, do not let it show on your face. Do not let them know that you messed up. You have to stay in character every second you are onstage. Remember that you are not just a dancer, you all are blossoming into skilled and talented artists. You are an entertainer." That gave me goosebumps, the good kind. A mixture of nerves and excitement and adrenaline. Okay, let's go, I thought. If I must wait any longer to perform, I may very well throw up right here in the rehearsal hall and pass out. I was ready. The audience should FEEL something after you dance, my ballet teacher would say to us, whether it's excitement or sadness, inspiration or a connection to your performance on a deeper level 🤗 Of course there will always be those few especially gifted dancers who are also natural actresses- they often are "triple threats" and acting comes quite easy to them and they enjoy it and it shows. But, like many teaching professionals in the dance community will tell you, acting and having stage presence is something that is common for a lot of dancers to struggle with. It must be taught and taught seriously as part of a budding ballerina's dance education. Just like important "specialty" classes and workshops such as nutrition for dancers, injury prevention, pilates, French, and ballet history, acting workshops specifically for dancers and specialty sometimes weeklong acting courses geared for pre-professional dancers (sometimes over the summer) are highly encouraged by ballet teachers because they know just how valuable acting skills are to any dancer who is serious about a performing career.👌
@@Star3marie304 if you don't have at least a little fun while you do it, then what's the point of performing?❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
All these delightful children are beautifully trained and costumed. Judging this competition would be a struggle. It is wonderful to see so much talent and congratulations to the parents and teachers and to the dancers who all performed brilliantly.

With Rio Enami I can reallllly see that intense concentration in her face the whole time, and for good reason too!!! That particular variation looks sooo tricky compared to the one I've seen before, not only that but she keeps the mischief and though she could be just a tiny bit more confident, she sticks every single landing!!!! Brava Rio!! You've got this!!!!!💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚❤️❤️❤️🪆🤡
She did a great job with a challenging variation, and we can't wait to see her grow and progress as a dancer! 💚 We have other videos of YGP dancers performing Harlequinade on our channel, if you're interested! ruclips.net/video/kG7bGXbazNU/видео.html , ruclips.net/video/0IQYelHPBoQ/видео.html

Thank you for not having the 1st dancer on point too young! Excellent!
My favourite ones were The Flower Festival in Genzano and The Coppelia ones. The way those two girls danced in those ballet dresses. Stunning.
What beautiful and talented girls! Congratulations for your effort and dedication, a bright future in the ballet world awaits you.
Aika (last dancer) is something special. If she dances this way not en pointe, she will be mind-blowing when she masters the skill!!!
I so admire these young dancer's dedication and poise! Bravo to them!!
Their passion and hard work blows us away! It is incredible to see so much talent at such young ages. Are there any other dancers you would like us to feature? Make sure you're subscribed so you don't miss out! You may also like Ruka Suginohara ruclips.net/video/jBghwyJgut0/видео.html and Tsz Ching Tai ruclips.net/video/mpeJekz_kJU/видео.html
for me Natsu fukuyama was my favorite because she dances with her heart and emotion which makes her special but all of the dancers are amazing.
Those childrens are really cute. I want to say that keep everyone to have a beautiful job. Like the dress!!
The first one was such a delight to watch. They all were 💕
Omg! The third one I love that dress!!!! And the girl she is so amazing! WELL DONE

God Bless.🙏
Thank You. 🤍
Divinos e fantásticos dons de humanos superiores.
I did the same dance as the first girl and she does it better than me aa!
きれい！
Remarkable skill level in these girls, in technique, musicality and stage presence, poise, charm. Are they being trained in the same system. or in different schools? Is there a Vagonova School in Japan?
Agreed! They are amazing. All the dancers are from different ballet schools: Symphony Ballet Studio, Atelier de Ballet Ange, Wakui ballet school, Morinaka Maki Ballet Studio, BALLET LE COEUR. Take a look at another video of the Top 12 Junior classical winners from 2021 Season Japan Semi-Final: ruclips.net/video/eBEnBnkxH8M/видео.html
Браво!!!
I'm guessing these dancers are full time ballet school students. Their level of ability is far above the average. I'm pleased none of these young dancers are en pointe.
It’s against YAGP rules to be on pointe in the precompetitive category :)
@@silena197 thankfully! it's not long ago that they changed it
@@silena197 yes. They used to be able to but recently changed it like someone else said. Although I'm positive all of these young ladies are already on pointe. They just didn't dance on pointe here.
👏👏👏
when your ten and the first one is your variation-
Lol, there’s only a year age difference though :) Don’t worry
@@kamille2927 awards were out(seattle) and i got top twelve for contempoary but literally i got beat by a 9 year old who's variation kinda looked like her runnin around for ballet. I think it was only because her music stopped but she kept going but im still really sad.
@@nicolecao7976Wow that’s great! I’m sure you did amazing.
God Bles.🙏
Thank You🤍
Extraordinary.
omg tis is veri beautifol
We agree, Absolutely beautiful!! SUBSCRIBE to our channel to see more exceptional young dancers. You may enjoy this young dancer: ruclips.net/video/sOJbxqOjqxQ/видео.html
Very nice girls! Welcome in Russia for advanced ballet education!
"En pointe" is French, pronounced "ohn pwahn", meaning "on tip". "On point" is an English expression for "perfect, exactly right, flawless". It is easy to mix up "en pointe" and "on point".
Correct! We work hard to make sure our pointe technique is on point! (and grammar, too) 👍
❤️❤️❤️😍😍
8:07 does anyone know where her tutu is from? It's gorgeous
😍😍
3:05 6:00 18:00 23:00

Me: When I get older I will become a professional ballerina and dance with my dream companies
Me after watched this video: guess that’s over...

Okay, a nine year old is better than me. That’s real disappointing.
I am going to have to agree on that. I am 13 and can barely execute a triple pirouette!

本当に素晴らしい技術。将来楽しみです。でも足先の技術にとらわれすぎて、躍りの楽しみを失わないで下さいね。何よりも動きの一つ一つは感情の表現であり、ただの振り付けで終わったらつまらないから。大きくなったあなた達を楽しみにしています！

At 9 she has the technique of a 12 year old so at 12 she probably will have a technique of a 20 year old
Asuka is phenomenal 💖 Take a look at her contemporary performance White Cloud at YAGP last year - we're sure you'll enjoy it 😊ruclips.net/video/QeCn-O8WXZw/видео.html
