This was amazing. Sugarplum in the show I saw this year didn’t pull out even half of the moves you just did. She was great, but she was much less “sugary” as you’ve said before. Your stamina is incredible. It amazes me how soft and delicate you can keep your arms, hands and face while you’re doing such a physically demanding activity.
I am in awe of you Lori! Your arms appear to have No Bones! The grace and fluidity of your body defies description.I feel privileged that you have shared these special moments of your life with us. Thank you.
Lori, when I first started to watch your videos, viewing bits and pieces of you dancing, I thought you were an "okay dancer." Seeing you dance an entire piece, I can now see what an accomplished ballet dancer you are. Since I have now been bombarded by RUclips with other videos of other ballet dancers, Nutcracker performances from across this country and other countries and those who wanted to be a ballet dancer and never made it, I can really see the difference in your physical strength and strong energy level as well as in your personal emotional strength in succeeding in your profession in ballet. Also, by you educating us, like me who know nothing about ballet, I now realize how much physical stamina it takes to dance a piece like that. I am hoping you are feeling better. I am guessing that with all the physical strength it took to dance through the Nutcracker season, it must of taken a lot out on your immunial system! Best wishes to you in feeling better!❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing this. It has rescued Nutcracker viewing for the year. I watched a 2012(I think) recording of the English National Ballet's Nutcracker and it was so far from a traditional nutcracker it made me want to cry! Thank you again for sharing this and it was amazing to watch You are very talented.
Just wow. As I’ve mentioned before, I’ve been very familiar with Nutcracker as my school my college did Nutcracker every season and I was in the orchestra. You exemplify everything the sugarplum fairy roll should portray and you do it with such elegance and grace. Bravissima!
Such a beautiful ballerina to watch. You are like the ballerina I watched on my little jewelry box when I was a little girl. It was really a wonderful treasure to watch you during your Nutcracker performance. ❤
I always find the sugarplum very mechanical and doll like, it's not my favourite but it's so different when you do it. I absolutely love watching you perform this.
Amazing! I think you are improving constantly and that’s such a tremendous accomplishment as a dancer. I am amazed how lyrical and musical you are and also the crisp and solid technique. Just sublime!! You look so strong and beautiful 💗💗
Just lovely. Seeing the production now is more intimate. I feel different....like I know the Sugar Plum Fairy! Thank you for sharing your journey with us.
Love yourv beautiful channel Lori It has been a true gift to see your videos during the holidays a bright star indeed you are. A true Sugar Plum🩰🩰 Hope you are feeling better cold viruses are going around try to rest you have had busy past months working hard. I would always get sick after my skating season would come to a end I believe it's the let down of all the excitement of performing. Looking forward to watching more videos. Always stay as beautiful as you are your smile is contagious you bring much Joy! Love and hugs from, San Jose, California ⛸️💖💖🩰😘
I’ve discovered and greatly enjoyed your channel the past month or so. You’re very dedicated to your art and putting together the Vlogmas during the season must have been hard. But you persisted to everyone’s benefit. It’s given me something to enjoy outside the daily grind and I look forward to seeing your career evolve. Thank you!
You are perfection! I saw 3 different productions of The Nutcracker this year, and while I enjoyed them all, none of the Sugarplums ‘pulled’ me into their performances like you do. I was very tempted to fly to San Diego to see you in person, but it wasn’t in the cards this year. BTWs- it appears as though poor Clara had slipped into a coma. She didn’t move at all. lol

I just watched the nutcracker ballet show in London and sugar plum was not like this at all, YOU ARE INCREDIBLE❤
I had to watch that several times. It is so beautiful. Well done Lori. ❤

You are very talented.
That was magical Lori. I could watch you dance this variation over and over again. I especially love how far you travel on that manège.
For anyone who wonders why dancers take class every single day, this is why. It’s so they can do this.
Brava, darling!! 💐💐💐💐💐💐💐

My all-time favorite ballerina is Margot Fonteyn. You remind me a lot of her. You're so wonderful to watch, thank you for sharing! 💕💕💕
