Svetlana Zakharova Gahhhh my fave dancer of all time!!!!! She is Russian (obvs like look at her last name) and is the most physically perfect human built for ballet. Super flexi, amazing banana feet...the list goes on! If you are looking for inspiration, go to Sveta. (note: i said inspiration. DO NOT COMPARE YOURSELF!!! You will lose, she is perf) |
Olga SmirnovaM-A-G-I-C is how she should spell her name....damn Russia keeps popping out perfect little betty bunheads and are stealing all the mojo from the rest of us...grrrrrrrrr.....watching her dance just takes my breath away every single time and i can't even describe it so get your butt to youtube now! |
Maria KochetkovaPrinciple dancer for San Francisco Ballet <3 Funny story: she trained in Russia for years to try to get into one of their companies (Moscow and Bolshoi) and when she graduated the Vaganova Academy, they said she was too short to join the corps de ballet (they all have to look the same) so, instead of giving up, she moved to America and became the amazing dancer she was always meant to be :) |
