(Русский перевод в пунктах ниже) ✨ I’ve wanted to make this video for nearly 2 years now, focusing on Sergei’s performances in Russia, to try to express my appreciation for the people who have been there for Sergei since he left the Royal Ballet, who gave him a place to land as he struggled to find a new life and creative freedom. I’m aware that in the time between my original idea and now, my desire to simply say, “Thank you” has become loaded with a political charge. I wish it was otherwise. But as our world seems to get more and more divided, I find myself feeling even more indebted to the people I want to thank. And I don’t want to be the kind of person who lets a hostile political climate keep me from saying what’s truly on my heart or creating a work of gratitude. So I offer this montage as my gift of thanks to the Russian people who supported Sergei after he left the Royal ballet, and to those who support him and share with his fans around the world today. As politics and world events affect Sergei’s opportunities to dance and the ability of his fans to travel to see him, it is you, our Russian friends, who we will continue to owe a debt of gratitude to, knowing your support of him will keep these precious years of dance from being lost to him and to the world. 🌹 Thank you. For supporting Sergei. For sharing his dance with us. For giving us all this immeasurable and priceless gift. Our world is a brighter and more beautiful place because of you. ✨ *** Я хотел снять это видео уже почти 2 года, сосредоточив внимание на выступлениях Сергея в России, чтобы попытаться выразить свою признательность людям, которые были рядом с Сергеем с тех пор, как он покинул Королевский балет, которые дали ему место, где он может приземлиться. как он изо всех сил пытался найти новую жизнь и творческую свободу. Я осознаю, что за время, прошедшее между моей первоначальной идеей и сегодняшним днем, мое желание просто сказать «спасибо» приобрело политический заряд. Но по мере того, как наш мир становится все более и более разделенным, я чувствую, что в еще большем долгу перед людьми, которых хочу поблагодарить. И я не хочу быть человеком, который позволяет враждебному политическому климату помешать мне сказать то, что действительно у меня на сердце, или создать произведение благодарности. Поэтому я предлагаю этот монтаж как подарок благодарности русским людям, которые поддерживали Сергея после того, как он покинул Королевский балет, и тем, кто сегодня поддерживает его и делится с его поклонниками по всему миру. Поскольку политика и мировые события влияют на возможности Сергея танцевать и на возможность его поклонников приезжать, чтобы увидеть его, именно вам, нашим русским друзьям, мы будем и впредь должны быть благодарны, зная, что ваша поддержка его сохранит эти отношения. драгоценные годы танца от того, чтобы быть потерянными для него и для всего мира. 🌹 Спасибо. За поддержку Сергея. За то, что поделился с нами своим танцем. За то, что подарил нам весь этот неизмеримый и бесценный дар. Наш мир стал ярче и красивее благодаря вам. ✨ *** ✨AFTER THE ROYAL BALLET: For those who only know about Sergei's time in the Royal Ballet ✨ Sergei Polunin left the Royal Ballet in January 2012. After his hopes to dance in the USA fell through and after several uncertain months of searching for a new place to dance, he followed advice to go to Russia to re-establish himself and soon met Igor Zelensky who became a mentor to him and brought him to the Moscow State Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko Music Theatre (MAMT) to dance. On July 8th, 2012, six months after he left Covent Garden, Sergei was back onstage in the MAMT's premier performance of "Coppelia". At Zelensky's encouragement he participated in the first season of the Russian Dance Competition "Bolshoi (Big) Ballet" which aired October - November 2012. His appearance (and subsequent win) on this show helped launch his very successful dance career in Russia. While undeniably popular in London (selling out season tickets years in advance), Sergei has said that it only took 5 days of appearing on Big Ballet to help him gain the same level of fame and name-recognition in Russia as he had experienced in London after 5 years of dancing with the Royal Ballet. Sergei spent the next 3 years dancing at the Moscow State Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko Music Theatre (MAMT) and the Novosibirsk State Academic Opera and Ballet Theatre (NOVAT). He performed in around 100 ballet productions including multiple performances of Giselle, Swan Lake, Coppelia, Don Quioxte, LaBayadere, Mayerling, and The Nutcracker. (NOTE: most of the dance footage that you can find on RUclips, as well as nearly all the dance footage in the documentary "Dancer", is footage from his performances AFTER he left the Royal Ballet.) In May of 2016 he left full time theater work to establish his own independent dance company and pursue a wider variety of independent creative partnerships in dance, film, and modeling. He has toured worldwide with his ballet company, Polunin Ink, producing and performing new solos and ballets including Sacre, Bolero, Satori, Little Red and the Wolf, Rasputin, Dante: Metanoia, and Johan Koborg's "Romeo and Juliet". He's also performed at multiple galas and special solo appearances for local and national events and has danced in nearly a dozen music videos which have garnered a combined total of over 50 million views. He has acted in several feature films and modeled for magazines and ad campaigns for Elle, Vogue, Esquire, GQ, and many more. Motivated by his desire to help and support young dancers, in 2017 he established a charitable foundation that supports the education of young dancers in several countries. He also serves as the acting rector of the Sevastopol Ballet Academy. He gives Masterclasses to ballet students there and around the world - whenever possible, he holds a Masterclass session wherever he performs his shows. *** Montage Song: "Sleeping Pill" by Maestro Chives (feat. Royal Blue). ** Editor's note: Because I chose to focus only on Sergei's performances for Russian audiences and tried to include clips from every year since 2012, while also trying to mostly use clips I haven't used in my other montages, many of Sergei's performances, including his more recent classical ballet performances, are missing from this video.

Спасибо,Индиа за этот ролик, в котором за несколько минут одним мазком кисти собрана вся политра творчества великого мастера за несколько лет и нет сомнения,что это только начало и вершина ещё не достигнута....
Не перестану восхищаться этой парой, сколько бы не прошло лет. Талантливые и трудолюбивые. Молодцы, встретились в этой жизни и создали замечательную семью. Понятно, что произошло на гастролях в южной стране, ужасно. Вы сильные, преодолеете, у вас замечательные детишки. Живите, преодолевайте трудности, которые ещё будут у вас. 071022. Не унывайте, у вас сильная поддержка, ваши детки. Спасибо вам.
I adore this video. Cleverly edited and lovely music. Enjoyed it very much. I would like to add my thanks to those who supported Sergei when he leapt off the "precipice." There were those who thought he'd plummet into oblivion. But he soared... and the gifts to the world were glorious and many, as so artfully cataloged in your video. Thanks also to those who still support him, through thick and thin. Like you.
Thank you so very much! And my very special thanks to YOU, for being my own introduction to Sergei with your wonderful montage - "27 Times Sergei Polunin Made Me Say Wow". Not enough words to say thank you.
@@IndiaInk It was an honor and a privilege. I found Sergei via TMTC and from there I delved into his story. I was transfixed by all he'd been through and ACCOMPLISHED at such a young age. The "momma" instinct in me kicked in. He was still on a bit of a slippery slope at that time and all I could think of was I wanted to help. But how could I help? At all??!! Then, it came to me... if I could just crack the door open a smidge, Sergei could take it from there, like he had with me. TMTC had tapped me on the shoulder and then sent me headlong into Sergeiland. If I could get people to SEE him, just one time, they'd be hooked! Not just the people who were lucky enough to see him in person, and who already loved and supported him, but MORE people, people all over the world. The world needed to know about him, and after seeing how David LaChapelle's masterpiece went viral, I knew videos were going to be the method of my madness lol. So, long story short (too late Pamela) and nearly 300 videos later, I don't know how influential my plan was, but I'm sure having fun along the way! Big hugs from Texas to you and everyone else I've come to know through Sergei. He's made the world a much smaller place, and that's a good thing.
Even if only a fraction of your 300 videos have had the Million view reach (a MILLION! views 👏❤️👏) your accumulated efforts I’m sure have had a broad impact on letting people get that first look that brings them into “Sergeiland”. And yes, there are many of us who, once we love him, will do anything we can to guard and support him. I’m grateful to have videos as a way I can use to support him and join you in showing as many people as possible who he is - as a dancer and as a person. ✨
Condivido ogni parola del ringraziamento finale! Che video stupendo! Tutta la forza e la sapienza di Sergei insieme ad una delicatezza e gentilezza d'animo che commuovono! Virilità e dolcezza insieme: Wow! Grazie alla Russia che gli ha permesso di ritrovare le ali dell'arte nella libertà!
Sergei is truly one of the most amazing and incredible dancers I've ever seen. He is so lovely with the children in this clip.A genuinely beautiful being. 😊

Извините, я думал, что RUclips предоставил всем возможность «перевести комментарии». ** ПОСЛЕ КОРОЛЕВСКОГО БАЛЕТА: Для тех, кто знает только о времени Сергея в Королевском балете ** Сергей Полунин покинул Королевский балет в январе 2012 года. После того, как его надежды танцевать в США рухнули, и после нескольких месяцев неопределенных поисков нового места для танцев, он последовал совету поехать в Россию, чтобы восстановить свои силы, и вскоре встретил Игоря. Зеленского, который стал для него наставником и привел танцевать в Московский государственный музыкальный театр Станиславского и Немировича-Данченко (МАМТ). 8 июля 2012 года, через шесть месяцев после того, как он покинул Ковент-Гарден, Сергей вернулся на сцену в премьерном исполнении «Коппелии» МАМТ. При поддержке Зеленского он принял участие в первом сезоне Российского танцевального конкурса «Большой (Большой) балет», который транслировался с октября по ноябрь 2012 года. Его появление (и последующая победа) в этом шоу помогло начать его очень успешную танцевальную карьеру в России. Будучи бесспорно популярным в Лондоне (абонементы продаются на годы вперед), Сергей сказал, что всего 5 дней выступления в Большом балете помогли ему добиться такого же уровня славы и признания в России, как и в Лондоне. после 5 лет танцев в Королевском балете. Следующие 3 года Сергей танцевал в Московском государственном музыкальном театре Станиславского и Немировича-Данченко (МАМТ) и Новосибирском государственном академическом театре оперы и балета (НОВАТ). Он участвовал примерно в 100 балетных постановках, в том числе в многочисленных постановках «Жизель», «Лебединое озеро», «Коппелия», «Дон Кихост», «Баядерка», «Майерлинг» и «Щелкунчик». (ПРИМЕЧАНИЕ: большая часть танцевальных кадров, которые вы можете найти на RUclips, а также почти все танцевальные кадры в документальном фильме «Танцор» - это кадры из его выступлений ПОСЛЕ того, как он покинул Королевский балет.) В мае 2016 года он оставил работу в театре на полную ставку, чтобы основать свою собственную независимую танцевальную компанию и заняться более широким спектром независимых творческих партнерств в области танцев, кино и моделирования. Он гастролировал по всему миру со своей балетной труппой «Полунин Инк», продюсируя и исполняя новые соло и балеты, в том числе «Священный», «Болеро», «Сатори», «Красный и волк», «Распутин», «Данте: Метанойя» и «Ромео и Джульетта» Йохана Коборга. Он также выступал на многочисленных гала-концертах и специальных сольных выступлениях на местных и национальных мероприятиях и танцевал почти в дюжине музыкальных клипов, которые в общей сложности собрали более 50 миллионов просмотров. Он снялся в нескольких художественных фильмах и был моделью для журналов и рекламных кампаний для Elle, Vogue, Esquire, GQ и многих других. Движимый желанием помогать и поддерживать молодых танцоров, в 2017 году он учредил благотворительный фонд, который поддерживает образование молодых танцоров в нескольких странах. Он также является исполняющим обязанности ректора Севастопольской академии балета. Он дает мастер-классы для студентов балета там и по всему миру - когда это возможно, он проводит мастер-классы везде, где дает свои спектакли.
Thank you! His art is a gift of compassion for humanity, his ‘mission’ as he hopes it is. Great creative artists are a powerful voice for good. Sergei Polunin calls all artists to unite in their own artistic expression. There is power for peace in that endeavor.
It was with this program ten years ago that my acquaintance with Sergei's talent began. Conquered immediately. Thank you, India, for the wonderful reminder Именно с этой передачи десять лет назад началось мое знакомство с талантом Сергея. Покорил сразу. Спасибо, Индия, за прекрасное напоминание
All of us Polunin fans as well as commenters - - do acknowledge your act of gratefulness or gratitude @ India Ink. Similarly - - we are indeed thankful - - for the beautiful and innumerous video montages which had been showed to us by you ❤️ @ I I - - over the last two years. Sergei Polunin's dance will unite all of us and the whole world - - absolutely.
Those spectacular leaps and sequences and his overall technique - - are wonderful things to see of Polunin. And I'll always remember Sergei Polunin dancing the romantic Giselle ♥️ with Svetlana Zacharova - - and of course Sergei's famous Entrechat Six.
Que video más maravilloso!💖 Gracias India ink, por este video tan increíble, mil gracias por mostrarnos esas actuaciones de Sergei fuera de lo normal, espectaculares, y gracias Rusia por facilitar que Sergei desarrolle su potencial creativo, es una estrella en este mundo y con su baile nos unirá a todos los pueblos porque transmite amor y belleza universales💖💖💖💖🙏🙏🙏🙏
Oh, India Ink, you made me cry; thank you so much for more than one reason. I do share your point of view and your clip is breathtaking, as Sergei is most of the time.Thank you India, thank you Igor, thank you Russia.
To my knowledge, none of Sergei’s Russian performances seen here in this montage are available as professional recordings available for purchase. However, you can see parts of, and even a few of his full, ballet performances with him recorded by audience members at the page linked below (including performances from his Royal Ballet years, some of which are available on DVD/ Bluray) LOOKING FOR POLUNIN BALLET PERFORMANCES? You're invited to visit this page on my channel where I have been working on organizing all the quality recordings of Sergei Polunin's performances I've found on RUclips. ruclips.net/user/IndiaInkplaylists?view=50&sort=dd&shelf_id=2 Most of these playlists (over 30 so far!) compile near-complete or even full performances of ballets including Giselle performances with seven different ballerinas, Swan Lake with three different ballerinas, the Nutcracker, Sleeping Beauty, Don Quixote, Spartacus, Mayerling, LaBayadere, Coppelia, and many more! You can also find his “Bolshoi ballet” performances (the competition he was on that is in the opening of the video) on the playlist on my homepage. If you have trouble finding it, let me know and I’ll add the link here in a reply.

** AFTER THE ROYAL BALLET: For those who only know about Sergei's time in the Royal Ballet **
Sergei Polunin left the Royal Ballet in January 2012. After his hopes to dance in the USA fell through and after several uncertain months of searching for a new place to dance, he followed advice to go to Russia to re-establish himself and soon met Igor Zelensky who became a mentor to him and brought him to the Moscow State Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko Music Theatre (MAMT) to dance. On July 8th, 2012, six months after he left Covent Garden, Sergei was back onstage in the MAMT's premier performance of "Coppelia".
At Zelensky's encouragement he participated in the first season of the Russian Dance Competition "Bolshoi (Big) Ballet" which aired October - November 2012. His appearance (and subsequent win) on this show helped launch his very successful dance career in Russia. While undeniably popular in London (selling out season tickets years in advance), Sergei has said that it only took 5 days of appearing on Big Ballet to help him gain the same level of fame and name-recognition in Russia as he had experienced in London after 5 years of dancing with the Royal Ballet.
Sergei spent the next 3 years dancing at the Moscow State Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko Music Theatre (MAMT) and the Novosibirsk State Academic Opera and Ballet Theatre (NOVAT). He performed in around 100 ballet productions including multiple performances of Giselle, Swan Lake, Coppelia, Don Quioxte, LaBayadere, Mayerling, and The Nutcracker. (NOTE: most of the dance footage that you can find on RUclips, as well as nearly all the dance footage in the documentary "Dancer", is footage from his performances AFTER he left the Royal Ballet.)
In May of 2016 he left full time theater work to establish his own independent dance company and pursue a wider variety of independent creative partnerships in dance, film, and modeling. He has toured worldwide with his ballet company, Polunin Ink, producing and performing new solos and ballets including Sacre, Bolero, Satori, Little Red and the Wolf, Rasputin, Dante: Metanoia, and Johan Koborg's "Romeo and Juliet". He's also performed at multiple galas and special solo appearances for local and national events and has danced in nearly a dozen music videos which have garnered a combined total of over 50 million views. He has acted in several feature films and modeled for magazines and ad campaigns for Elle, Vogue, Esquire, GQ, and many more.
Motivated by his desire to help and support young dancers, in 2017 he established a charitable foundation that supports the education of young dancers in several countries. He also serves as the acting rector of the Sevastopol Ballet Academy. He gives Masterclasses to ballet students there and around the world - whenever possible, he holds a Masterclass session wherever he performs his shows.

Извините, я думал, что RUclips предоставил всем возможность «перевести комментарии».
** ПОСЛЕ КОРОЛЕВСКОГО БАЛЕТА: Для тех, кто знает только о времени Сергея в Королевском балете **
Сергей Полунин покинул Королевский балет в январе 2012 года. После того, как его надежды танцевать в США рухнули, и после нескольких месяцев неопределенных поисков нового места для танцев, он последовал совету поехать в Россию, чтобы восстановить свои силы, и вскоре встретил Игоря. Зеленского, который стал для него наставником и привел танцевать в Московский государственный музыкальный театр Станиславского и Немировича-Данченко (МАМТ). 8 июля 2012 года, через шесть месяцев после того, как он покинул Ковент-Гарден, Сергей вернулся на сцену в премьерном исполнении «Коппелии» МАМТ.
При поддержке Зеленского он принял участие в первом сезоне Российского танцевального конкурса «Большой (Большой) балет», который транслировался с октября по ноябрь 2012 года. Его появление (и последующая победа) в этом шоу помогло начать его очень успешную танцевальную карьеру в России. Будучи бесспорно популярным в Лондоне (абонементы продаются на годы вперед), Сергей сказал, что всего 5 дней выступления в Большом балете помогли ему добиться такого же уровня славы и признания в России, как и в Лондоне. после 5 лет танцев в Королевском балете.
Следующие 3 года Сергей танцевал в Московском государственном музыкальном театре Станиславского и Немировича-Данченко (МАМТ) и Новосибирском государственном академическом театре оперы и балета (НОВАТ). Он участвовал примерно в 100 балетных постановках, в том числе в многочисленных постановках «Жизель», «Лебединое озеро», «Коппелия», «Дон Кихост», «Баядерка», «Майерлинг» и «Щелкунчик». (ПРИМЕЧАНИЕ: большая часть танцевальных кадров, которые вы можете найти на RUclips, а также почти все танцевальные кадры в документальном фильме «Танцор» - это кадры из его выступлений ПОСЛЕ того, как он покинул Королевский балет.)
В мае 2016 года он оставил работу в театре на полную ставку, чтобы основать свою собственную независимую танцевальную компанию и заняться более широким спектром независимых творческих партнерств в области танцев, кино и моделирования. Он гастролировал по всему миру со своей балетной труппой «Полунин Инк», продюсируя и исполняя новые соло и балеты, в том числе «Священный», «Болеро», «Сатори», «Красный и волк», «Распутин», «Данте: Метанойя» и «Ромео и Джульетта» Йохана Коборга. Он также выступал на многочисленных гала-концертах и специальных сольных выступлениях на местных и национальных мероприятиях и танцевал почти в дюжине музыкальных клипов, которые в общей сложности собрали более 50 миллионов просмотров. Он снялся в нескольких художественных фильмах и был моделью для журналов и рекламных кампаний для Elle, Vogue, Esquire, GQ и многих других.
Движимый желанием помогать и поддерживать молодых танцоров, в 2017 году он учредил благотворительный фонд, который поддерживает образование молодых танцоров в нескольких странах. Он также является исполняющим обязанности ректора Севастопольской академии балета. Он дает мастер-классы для студентов балета там и по всему миру - когда это возможно, он проводит мастер-классы везде, где дает свои спектакли.
Восторг и ещё раз восторг
🥰✨
Exquisite and superior ballet… takes my breath away, such drama and expressions of beauty.
He is amazingly beautiful. Glad you enjoyed. ❤️✨
Thank you! His art is a gift of compassion for humanity, his ‘mission’ as he hopes it is. Great creative artists are a powerful voice for good. Sergei Polunin calls all artists to unite in their own artistic expression. There is power for peace in that endeavor.

another Russian Super Star,,,,even better
Один, в каких то тренировочных штанах, собирает полные залы. И ничего не нужно, кроме него самого ❤
Where can we find whole videos of these performances? I wish I could buy them
To my knowledge, none of Sergei’s Russian performances seen here in this montage are available as professional recordings available for purchase. However, you can see parts of, and even a few of his full, ballet performances with him recorded by audience members at the page linked below (including performances from his Royal Ballet years, some of which are available on DVD/ Bluray)
LOOKING FOR POLUNIN BALLET PERFORMANCES?
You're invited to visit this page on my channel where I have been working on organizing all the quality recordings of Sergei Polunin's performances I've found on RUclips.
ruclips.net/user/IndiaInkplaylists?view=50&sort=dd&shelf_id=2
Most of these playlists (over 30 so far!) compile near-complete or even full performances of ballets including Giselle performances with seven different ballerinas, Swan Lake with three different ballerinas, the Nutcracker, Sleeping Beauty, Don Quixote, Spartacus, Mayerling, LaBayadere, Coppelia, and many more!
You can also find his “Bolshoi ballet” performances (the competition he was on that is in the opening of the video) on the playlist on my homepage. If you have trouble finding it, let me know and I’ll add the link here in a reply.
@@IndiaInk thank you so much
И большая благодарность Игорю Зеленскому!
