Only gripe is that the choreography doesn't include the bird-like swan fluttering of the wing just a little too make the piece realistic. She is a human transformed into a hybrid so traditionally, the bird-like movement is in the choreography.

Yada yada yada.
I'm happy for you that you learnt a new word
"Adagio"
.
And that your profound thread was moved to Art. -

This is making me cry years of joy. I never imagined that I would EVER see a professional black ballerina as a principal performing for a famous American ballet company.
And her dancing the same as the white ballerinas.
Swan Lake is not my favorite ballet. Its MUSICAL SCORE is though. I've got notes with Swan Lake. But watching Nikisha dancing the White Swan role right here, has me talking in love with the ballet.

Watch the Bolshoi Ballet.

Stfu. What would a savage such as yourself know anything at all about high artistic expression such as "the dance"? That means the art of ballet, fyi.
Yah, Germans only play SOCCER! -

What took them so long?
#1
The short story? George Balanchine.
Pretty much. He was racist and influential. The dark girls would never be accepted as principal ballerinas in his time and those who came directly after.
Society had changed rapidly since his time in history.
#2 ballet training is expensive. Not many black parents can afford it for their children.
#3 Ballet extremely difficult to master. You also have to have the right body type and feet.
#4 Ballet is highly competitive.
I blame the great artistic director/ ballet choreographer, George Balanxhine.
I'm not going into details about who Balanchine is. You'll have to Google him if you have never heard of the man before.
So….according to Balanchine, the ballet dancer's skin MUST BE THE COLOR OF A FRESH PEELED APPLE.
Nikisha's skin color is that of a peeled apple.
The reason i am ESTACTIC ABOUT NIKISHA is because SHE IS BLACK AND PERFECT AT THIS.
MISTY COPLAND WAS AVERSGE AT BALLET BUT HYPED BECAUSE SHE WAS A BLACK FEMALE.

They don't dance the classics like The Nutcracker, Swan Lake, Giselle, La Bayadère , Apollo, La Sylphide , Romeo and Juliet…
I was first exposed to classical ballet so that is my preference, my passion.
I do enjoy all other forms of dance EXCEPT MODERN DANCIBG LIKE WHAT YOU SEE OF THAT SERIES -
So You Think You Can Dance??
