This is footage from a film, but I imagine the director telling Baryshnikov "Right, we need a practice scene, do what you normally do" and this is the end result.
Many sacrifices are made to be able to perform at this level of skill, but as a ballet dancer I can tell you it is all worth it. There is no greater feeling than to fly through the air and truly dance from the depths of your soul. It is an irreplaceable feeling more people should experience. It takes blood, sweat, and tears, but the results are well worth it.
His feet must be in pain! The female ballet dancers are lighter in weight. Of course they suffer too! What a great man! I cry when I see them dance for the art! So much passion and determination I don't have for anything.
I saw him dance The Nutcracker in 1977, on his first American tour with ABT. He was shining and glorious, and the whole world loved him. (Well, not Russia.) It was like watching a god come to earth. I'll never forget it.
It's not just his technical training and being blessed with good body proportions for ballet. What makes Misha special from his student days to this moment is his combination of intellect, modesty, disciplined focus, generosity of spirit - and depth of soul. He is a poet. All those amazing jumps were wonderful - but rhere'a much more to him than technical bravura.
Indeed. He transformed ballet, and the male dancer's role in it, just as Nureyev had done before him. Nureyev brought the male dancer front and center, but Mischa made him earthly, relatable, _human._
I had the great fortune of seeing him dance with the White Oak Project back in the 90s; it was his post- ABT days, and he was experimenting more in interpretive dance. But it was still a privilege to see Baryshnikov's legendary grace and strength. A treasured memory.
A rare opportunity to peek behind the curtain allowing you to see the strenuous work involved in the art of ballet dance that appears so effortless and graceful.
Good gawd! He is ALL injured! The ankle, the calf, the hip. And I don't want to imagine his feet. Ballet is so cruel once you look behind the scenes. Probably you shouldn't. :-)
Maloy7800 no joke! I did ballet in high school and college and am now 30. Every joint cracks, I’ve had multiple knee injuries, knee surgery, hip surgery, back problems. It’s a beautiful form of art but you’re forcing your body into unnatural positions which makes the joints vulnerable
@@HayleySulfridge Same here. I never required surgery but recall having muscle and joint pain for years on end. Nobody ever talks about that. Ballet requires extraordinary physical and mental discipline. A large percentage of dancers are bulimic or anorexic because weight gain is out of the question. I kept a daily calorie diary monitoring every bite of food I ate. Glad that's over!
The moment I saw him practicing jumps on a hard wood floor I felt pretty bad for ballet. Gymnasts also have movements that land hard on the legs, but they use a softer flooring to protect themselves.
Maloy7800 Extreme sports such as ballet, martial arts, and gymnastics ... where you’re constantly stretching and stretching your body to exceed pass its maximum abilities has proven to be very dangerous. You’ll start to notice it when you pass a certain age {40}. I wouldn’t recommend any child to take these sports up.
We can watch him wherever he is- on the stage or at training/practice...The effect is just the same...HE is a hard working person. "Dance forever Misha, please. It soothes our souls."---I agree with these words. THANK YOU.
I was fortunate to see Baryshnikov dance 6 times in the 70s. Amazing. His leaps and turns were always incredible. It was interesting to watch him work on his technique here and it was somehow reassuring to know his dancing wasn't perfect 100% of the time... just 99% of the time. 😜 At least I used to be able to flatten my body against my legs just like he did here. Lol!
Every aspiring dancer should watch this . . . AND every lover of ballet: The grueling, physically and mentally exhausting daily work that goes into making not JUST one of the greatest dancers of the Twentieth Century, but of all time - the commitment not simply of time, but of effort, of pain, of exhaustion performed endlessly. Only the tiniest of tiny fractions of people who take up ballet can even aspire to greatness such as this, much less to achieve it . . . but thank goodness, for lovers and supporters of ballet, that there ARE hundreds, probably thousands, of ballet students who have sufficient fire in their souls to make the attempt. We should all be grateful to Baryshnikov for allowing us this tiny glimpse into the regimen that made him great and kept him great throughout his astonishing career. Bravo, maestro, bravo!
When I was very young age 5 through 9 I wanted more than anything to dance like that,.. my father though being homophobic was angry at the mere idea of his son wanting to be a dancer. I often wonder now at age 49, what my life would have been had I been able to simply be what I wanted so long ago. instead, I played football, joined the army 5 days after my 17th birthday and ended up a disabled vet.
MrMentalflossed Aww D: I'm sorry you went through that. You should have been able to do whatever you wanted. (This doesn't help you, I know; I just felt moved to comment)
MrMentalflossed you should have followed your dream my friend. I went to ballet class age five but was put off because i was the only boy in the class. My mother was a dancer and encouraged me. It was my choice to quit, but now age 39 i have deep regrets. Im an artist and musician now but how i wish i would have continued ballet. Respects to you though for serving in the army.
@@michaelhanrahanmoore1622 you stated that you had your mother's support. OP stated that his father stopped him. It's so easy to say, "Follow your dreams no matter what." But reality is that it isn't easy when you don't have the support of your parents. We don't know OP's situation. His father may have physically beat him, emotionally abused him, and/or threatened to kick him out of the house if pursued his dream. We just don't know. It's hard to say screw it when you are a child/teenager with no experience, no money, little education, and little wisdom. You don't have the tools necessary to succeed at that age, unless you are provided with a support system. You need someone to financially support you while you obtain such skills, and hone your skills. You also need someone to encourage you emotionally and not call you a "faggot." And you need someone who will guide you through life based on their experience and thus gain a bit of their wisdom. It sounds as if OP didn't have any of that. Under his circumstances, I can understand him and not judge as to why he didn't just go ahead with his dream.
I really appreciated this scene from the movie. It was the first time I had seen it and all I could think of was the impact on his knees, ankles and feet. It gave me chills to think of his brilliant performances and the impact on all that cartilage… I respect how he transformed his career during the different stages of his life.
You can see that one of his legs is injured, he has to put on that bandage to protect his knee. After studying ballet, started late, I wanted to do what baryshnikov does..but starting at 21 that wasn't possible. But I did study for over 10 years. I took up yoga and pilates, and I can see how baryshnikov does those things, you need a strong body, but also a particular type of body.
Baryshnikov was like a god in his young. Even so, 21 wasn't too late ! I started at almost 23 and can do many of his jumps (pirouettes are a different story hahaha). He simply studied at the golden era of russian ballet technique.
I'm sorry, guys, but starting at 21 or 23 or even 18 or 17 or 15 is TOO LATE. You can't "do many of his jumps" or "do what Baryshnikov does" if you start that late. He did not "simply study at the golden era". He went through the most cruel selection process of the Russian ballet. I did it in the USSR for 7 years years as a child, and I didn't even pass the most basic selection. That said, I DO admire both of you for trying to do it at such an "old" age (for ballet). It's never late to start and try, but to get to THAT level, you have to start at 5-6-7, 9 at the latest.
His broke down in his mid to late 30s and he had to modify the roles that he danced. But he had a pretty punishing performing schedule. Had he stayed in Russia he would have performed far less. Once in the west he experimented with jazz, tap and modern dance too. Actually most of his professional career as a performer has now been spent in modern dance on his wonky knees.
I have been a dancer for over 40 years. I have had a lot of teachers tell me I was no good but I never listened to them really. At 53 I continue to practice bar work. Although my body my not be able to do some of the more athletic moves it use to ballet is such a beautiful artist form that some of the most simple movements with the music connect me to God.
He is one of the greatest ballet dancers of all time..................................................He need not say anything look at his dance and when you possess this kind oftalent humility come with it.
Difficult to say. He was fortunate to perform at a time when a great deal of the performances could be filmed or recorded on video. Many other great dancers stayed behind the Iron Curtain. And hundreds of years of dance before motion pictures could be stored at all with any reliability.
my instant hero back when he defected. I come to this video often, whenever I am struggling with issues on any level. watch Misha just keep going. and going. and breathing. and stretching. somehow, it helps me face my own struggles.
Although his jumps look effortless, he can tell by his breathing and wrapping up his leg, etc., that it does take a great deal of strength to do what he does.
LOL I was just saying to my partner "looks like he was past his prime a bit there, 1987...not jumping so lightly, looks kind of heavier somehow. Oh. He's wearing weights."
@AshlynnBall , those are not weights. he wears knee supporters, since he had multiple injuries in his knees and knee surgeries ( 7 knee surgeries as far as I recall) . he is amazing jumper and his control of the body is perfect even after all those injuries and age. ballet is a very tough art, although very beautiful ...
inspiring as always, we need idols and greatest models like Misha, we need to feel inspired and having dreams, without this the society gets divided and we loose the pleasure to wake up in the morning
If I had a dream where every person I recognized in the dream was shown in the form of an animal that was most kindred to their being, and then if Michail Baryshnikov showed up in my dream, he would do so as a stag.
I thought I was the only one who practices in the dark or a dimly lit room. { But my craft is tennis. } Practicing in the dark keeps my mind focused on my techniques. The darkness lessens my sensory input from the eyes. And practicing quietly alone cuts down sensory input from the ears too. All you hear while you’re practicing is the softness quiet inhaling and exhaling of you’re breathing. It’s very meditative. And the darkness energizes me as well.
This guy Barry could jump. They had him do a run and a jump and his verticle leap was somewhere in the high 40s. He was explosive as well. They were wondering how quick he was. So they did a test with him in a short sprint. He had the same speed as a world class sprinter up to 20 yards. So Barry was and is in my opinion the greatest ballet dancer with just pure grace and athleticism. Unbelievable.
Mikhail was Russian trained and that's the differ, he also loved to dance and put the work into it. Also a great choreographer as well as a generous dance partner & teacher. Love you Misha❤ 2:10
Rule #1 of practicing ballet alone: the room must be brooding and dimly lit
And laced with cameras!
Its supposed to be ruasia. In russia, all rooms are clearly brooding.
@@tanyanguyen3704 isn't this from Dancers which took place in Italy?
Or neon disco and faaabulous!
And you have to wear a wool sweater with a high neck!
An amazing reminder that raw talent only gets you so far - the great ones WORK for it.
I think so to! I think people like him have the talent and of course the drive and physical aspect all at once!
“Fundamentals are the building blocks of fun.”
Mikhail Baryshnikov

There is no greater feeling than to fly through the air and truly dance from the depths of your soul. It is an irreplaceable feeling more people should experience.

It came across in all of his performances for sure…new follower to ballet and I really enjoy watching his work…
there will never be another baryshnikov
Dorota Em he's called Sarafanov
Dorota Em Leonid Sarafanov is as good as him
Un merveilleux danseur et que les sauts et pitouettes sont incroyables de précision. .
Jack Hartill no way just looked him up. You’ve got to be kidding. Can’t even come close to MB’s power and excitement. No way.👎🏻
His feet must be in pain! The female ballet dancers are lighter in weight. Of course they suffer too! What a great man! I cry when I see them dance for the art! So much passion and determination I don't have for anything.
Not only is he brilliant, but he has got to be one of the sexiest men in the world.
Yes- just ordered a mini poster of him in White Nights....
its nice to hear that you dont have to be tall maybe
He's definatly an enigma
not only sexy... Also the most sensual men omg
@Parker Hilton I guess you'll never know
What this man brought to ballet was phenomenal...... the progress he made for future male dancers can never be forgotten........
I saw him dance in San Francisco in the 70's. Pure magic. I've never forgotten the experience.
❤
Cool!😎
GJ Alameda
Lucky you 😃😃😃 it would be amazing.
I saw him dance The Nutcracker in 1977, on his first American tour with ABT. He was shining and glorious, and the whole world loved him. (Well, not Russia.) It was like watching a god come to earth. I'll never forget it.
He was like a creature from a world without gravity. Pure power and grace and beauty.
It's not just his technical training and being blessed with good body proportions for ballet.

All those amazing jumps were wonderful - but rhere'a much more to him than technical bravura.
Suzanne Derringer you must know him personally?
Indeed. He transformed ballet, and the male dancer's role in it, just as Nureyev had done before him. Nureyev brought the male dancer front and center, but Mischa made him earthly, relatable, _human._
And that's how jumps are done....Look at the softness of his Landings. You can feel it with your eyes.
This man made every difficult move he made look so easy. Genius.
Barishnikov was extraordinary. He made non ballet people finally "get" ballet's greatness. That was a thrill for me to finally have my temple honored.
He's beautiful to watch,period.I had the tremendous pleasure of seeing him perform in person.A treasured memory.
I never tire of watching him. He is mesmerizing. He is PURE MAGIC. That is all I have to say.
What astounding beauty.... He always absolutely nails the landing.... I've never seen anyone else do that...
Practice..... Honor the ....Gift...
he has and always will be the BEST ballet dancer....ever!
I had the great fortune of seeing him dance with the White Oak Project back in the 90s; it was his post- ABT days, and he was experimenting more in interpretive dance. But it was still a privilege to see Baryshnikov's legendary grace and strength. A treasured memory.
As the great Galina Ulanova said in that brilliant book about her with all those gorgeous pictures of her in class, "Talent is work."
Only if you use the word talent incorrectly. Being elite is talent AND work.
He jumps like he is on an invisible trampoline. Amazing dancer!
I could watch him all day. What an incredible talent he is!
A rare opportunity to peek behind the curtain allowing you to see the strenuous work involved in the art of ballet dance that appears so effortless and graceful.
This man can fly! Incredible!

Many before him and many after...but none have reached so many people, with their whole being, as Baryshnikov has!!!
Nureyev.
We can watch him wherever he is- on the stage or at training/practice...The effect is just the same...HE is a hard working person. "Dance forever Misha, please. It soothes our souls."---I agree with these words. THANK YOU.
Take THAT, gravity! In yo faaaace, gravity!
I love this.
Just beautiful! An amazing athlete and dancer. Art in motion. Thank you for sharing

Lol!
has anyone noticed at the very beginning that he isn't bending his knees?? all of that height from his feet and calves!! he is truly extraordinary!!
Don't forget the most important part of it --- the back.
Fantasmagórico

The strength and skill, and hard work that takes; utterly astounding.
Jumping from 5th position. Brings back my ballet days. Incredibly difficult but he makes it look so easy.

I bet he could fly if he tried to.❤ he's marvelous.

Amazing jumps. Seem so flawless and effortless. 😲😉
can't stop watching him dance
God Bless you Mikhail!!!!A huge dream in a human body. You pulled off the impossible and we are so grateful!
Proof that Baryshnikov could indeed fly!
@vanjara To think that he was already thirty nine years old at the time, and still moving like this. Just phenomenal.
Yes, absolutely amazing.
Such talent and perseverance!
my instant hero back when he defected. I come to this video often, whenever I am struggling with issues on any level. watch Misha just keep going. and going. and breathing. and stretching. somehow, it helps me face my own struggles.
AAaaahhh! Freakin' six pirouettes like it was nothing. Baryshnikov is awesome.
Although his jumps look effortless, he can tell by his breathing and wrapping up his leg, etc., that it does take a great deal of strength to do what he does.
Oh my man, i love him so...
Absulutely beautiful. The man was incredibly talented.
magnificent focus power , beautiful!
It's from the movie, "Dancers" ... The story was lame but the dancing was fabulous!! Worth watching just to see Mikhail dance.
Is it on Netflix?
He is phenomenal in this, as always.
It’s actually on you tube. Sub titled in Portuguese. Look up Baryshnikov dancers movie.
He's not for the faint hearted- a master. 🌿🏆🌿
I love pausing the video when he's in mid jump(:
The man was just simply perfection!
LOL I was just saying to my partner "looks like he was past his prime a bit there, 1987...not jumping so lightly, looks kind of heavier somehow.
Oh. He's wearing weights."
He is amazing. I could watch him all day
@AshlynnBall , those are not weights. he wears knee supporters, since he had multiple injuries in his knees and knee surgeries ( 7 knee surgeries as far as I recall) . he is amazing jumper and his control of the body is perfect even after all those injuries and age.
ballet is a very tough art, although very beautiful ...
Misha forever. Best dancer bar non EVER!! LOVE THIS MAN!!!
Am attending the Bolshoi Ballet in Australia next month and so excited. They are truly amazing human beings.
inspiring as always, we need idols and greatest models like Misha, we need to feel inspired and having dreams, without this the society gets divided and we loose the pleasure to wake up in the morning
So nice to see him young again.
Baryshnikov is the Greatest dancer who ever lived!
This is the best dancer in the history
Incredible dancer....sheer class!!
If I had a dream where every person I recognized in the dream was shown in the form of an animal that was most kindred to their being, and then if Michail Baryshnikov showed up in my dream, he would do so as a stag.
Only trading makes perfect. You are the Master, Maestro. Greetings
Calentamiento. Que lindo 🤩 verlo me encanta 😍.
Le plus grand, le meilleur, danseur de tous les temps !!!! Amazing !!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

The man was a bunny in a past life.
I should know this : 😅😅😅
@Diana DBB What??? Nooooo!!!
The sound of pure athleticism and work
Le Corsaire. I recognized the jumps. Very few people have pulled them off.
This guy Barry could jump. They had him do a run and a jump and his verticle leap was somewhere in the high 40s. He was explosive as well. They were wondering how quick he was. So they did a test with him in a short sprint. He had the same speed as a world class sprinter up to 20 yards. So Barry was and is in my opinion the greatest ballet dancer with just pure grace and athleticism. Unbelievable.
Dedication made him the best🔥
Amazing!! So supple, beautiful
How much power he has in those legs! This is just incredible.
C'est génial, merci de nous permettre ce magnifique partage.
Absolument SUBLIME !!! ❤❤❤
Greatest footwork in history.
What about Bruhn?
@Elizabeth Francis 😂 sure...
Mikhail was Russian trained and that's the differ, he also loved to dance and put the work into it. Also a great choreographer as well as a generous dance partner & teacher. Love you Misha❤ 2:10
Love him !
He is perfect.
Love him❤❤❤❤🌹🌹🌹
I love this practice session.
Baryshnikov is an amazing bellet dancer!
I love it!
Ele é realmente magnífico!
Amazing I’m in awe
That made me smile ~ Gee I'm gonna miss this species but, I'll get over it...
awesome ! my fav dancer !!
1:28 - ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?!!!
Amo a ese hombre!
un ange tombé du ciel!
Ooh, my back! Here, let me fold myself in half. Oh yeah, that's better!😮
Este hombre tiene músculos de gato !!
Woooow, beautifull!!
He's so amazing.
