i was just thinking.. it must be so much fun after you're done learning the choreography to these ballets, (because you've been with a single company for a long enough time as a princible, granted that they haven't rechoreographed,) and you've learned much of what you need as far as technique and whatnot.. it would be just so much FUN to go out and perform!! you could just go out there and have fun! gosh, i wish i could get to that point one day. and when nerves don't get you so badly.

I love her! but don't you think that little curl on her forehead is a little annoying???

I just love seeing her dancing,I like the others ballet dancers too,couse i know how dificult is to keep dancing,But for me Svetlana is THE ONLY ONE.

Svetlana's movements exude soul & poetry. Her body is like a violin emanating music. Roles like Odette/Odille, Giselle & Nikiya are more apparent in such poetic expressiveness but that's the nature of the ballets. Kitri's playful, energetic, mischievous- believe me she's all that. I saw Bolshoi's Don Q, La Bayadere & Le Corsaire when they toured Covent Garden - she was ravishing in all of them, just like her mesmorising Odette/Odille when I saw it in Amsterdam. She's an absolute Prima Ballerina.
