      Chelsey Rader. Ah come ooon! A blessing? I’m guessing you’re American, tho of course I may be wrong, as Americans apply the words blessing and blessed, precious, and others in such strange ways. Extremely out of context it seems to me. To me these words are reserved for ..... well, actually I cannot think of anything where I would use these words. Maybe with blessing I might say You are very blessed with having good health, as I’m someone with bad health, and I would use it in an envious way. But blessed to watch a dancer??? Nooo.

      She is very graceful and majestic and powerful and all of the above, but saying she is a blessing will mislead people about what the bible is all about. God doesn’t care about our physical talents or even how our body looks. Flesh counts for nothing. So why would having a girl dance for us be God’s reward to us for listening to him? First, we need to listen to him, then receive the blessings. But the privilege to watch this is not that. We can thank God for creating life and therefore all it’s possibilities. But we can’t make up what the blessings he gives are. Many people add to the bible and create these rituals or ideas that would actually upset God because it is deceiving. Please don’t mislead people about the bible 😅🙈🙊
      If you think you do know the bible and you’re confused by what I said, try out some new bible studies! Keep trying until you find one that makes sense! And you’ll KNOW when it makes sense!

    Her performance is outstanding. Everything comes together perfectly: lightness of dancing, musicality, mesmerizing smile, beautiful and graceful arms, great fluidity, perfect technique, strong ballerina body; she expresses so well artistically the happiness of Aurora; what an amazing blessing for the world of ballet.
    ( To me there is only one thing that generally female ballerina dancers need to have changed about: the need to look more professionally- to have much better covered their privet parts, may be having a bit longer dresses and overall more changes to the dressing, and I suggest all this to every professional who dresses female ballerina dancers, regardless of the ballerina ethnicity, skin color, ballet school or academy…….)

      Mango Мango considering I danced for a number of years, know quite a bit. The woman was flawless ...OBVIOUSLY...since she also won her division. You know? If you stopped looking at the color of her skin and watched the quality of her dancing you might just see something beautiful. Did you see the piqué turns, the perfect jetés then the grande jeté? How about the beautiful arabesque and attitùdes yes, no? What exactly DO you know about ballet? I suggest you get your head out of your derrière and learn about it before you start writing critiques. She won because her sheer power, elegance and technique are superb. Your thoughts and ideas are antiquated, sick and bigoted.

      @@silky0439 Dear opponent, your considering has no sense, as you ignore(which you do) the base of ballet.The ballet isn't sport, but the aesthetic art,and so the only rule works for it: either all or nothing. That is why a ballerina has to be an ideal of body shape, to have special proportion of the body, with no scaliosis, no hyperlordosis, etc, etc, same for the technic.. the short calf muscles legs are not only an ugly flaw but also the absolutely "taboo" in the ballet, which this ballerina has with other things, you refuse to see.This girl wouldn't pass any casting in the professional ballet school in Russia. She could be in ballet class for amators, learning all professional technic, but would never get to the professional scene. The professional classic ballet standards are very restrict. If you ignore them, then don't call it "ballet" we could discuss with you about this girl and her performance a lot, but I really have no idea how to do that with smbdy, who watch the same and can see the same thing I do but says opposites of what is really obviously. It is like if you look at bunch of shit, but smbdy says it is bunch of flowers

Their form and presence is so developed and their technical stuff is so down-pat that you think you're watching some seasoned principal dancing a variation they've done the whole part in for years. Miss Precious Adams is definitely one of them! I wish her the very best and hope to see her crushing the solos in a nice prestigious company very soon!
