This really inspired me. I’m a professional ballerina and I feel passionate about bringing ballet to everyone and create performances for rural areas. I am currently working tirelessly as a waitress to create enough funds to launch my own company whilst creating my own repertoire and performing “gigs” for exposure but also to build funds
Grants?
Good luck, April!
Good luck! Maybe try starting a CZcams channel?
Please share your info when you get the chance. I love ballet and just started lessons myself this year in my late thirties, I've always loved the art and would attend shows. I'd love to help and support you in this endeavor in any way I can.
You will be an inspiration yourself if you accomplish this goal! (And you will!) Your impact will be amazing!
Most everyday people have never even seen ballet except on tv - if that!
Ballet is expensive to learn, and its very rare to get a pro gig.
Once you go pro, you still don't get paid a ton. It's literally a struggle.
I love that she's bringing it to the streets for many reasons!
One; many can see it
Two; it makes classics arts "attainable"
Three; buskers can make more than pro ballet dancers
This struggle is the same for black women in general especially in the art world. Pay your whole life and yet the jobs are few if any and in part due to discrimination and parts stereotyped! Should be nothing to do with tradition which keeps things the same, no change and not inclusive! In today’s society should be about talent.
@@11kwright i 100 agree with all of >>>>>> THIS!!!!
She is stunning. You meant "pro buskers" can make more than "pro ticketed" ? Because she isn't just any busker, she is a beautiful pro, pro, pro busker
The contrast between the dirty and loud city street and the elegance of the ballerina is striking making her performance even more touching. ❤
As a ballet dancer myself I find it heartbreaking to hear that some people don't get the chance to see ballet live due to the cost of tickets. I love that she is able to bring ballet to everyone and I love seeing the faces of the kids light up when they see her.
Ballet isn't important.
It is important to the people who love it, as participants in any role, as witnessed by the reactions of the people watching this brave, positive, talented and altruistic woman, taking her art to and interacting selflessly with the passersby in the street, bringing joy to so many people's lives. I wish her good luck, health and joy in all she does. ❤
I've danced on the street before and got nothing but positive responses. Thumbs up or a comment like that was really good choreography. People are just hungry for something beautiful and inspiring to take away their problems even for just a few moments.
@@jeanbell7922 You can have a positive reaction to something. I didn't say people didn't enjoy it, just that it's not important. Don't get it twisted.
@@Maspets it is to me
What I love the most in this story is that she didn't wait for flitting opportunities to come to her. She created her own. And by such, not only does she inspire thousands of others, but she also creates conversations. I hope others will join her and create a company. Well done! And also on 5he importance on having the rigth people surrounding you who gives you positive advice ❤
The majority of people watching her have no idea as to what she has put into this ballet dancing and she is giving them a lifetime (so far) of her hard work for free. Now this is someone who really loves what they do and the money is secondary, if that.
My friend once told me she wanted to see a ballet at least once. She was about to leave for one year to Australia after high school and I found there was a ballet performance at a small culture center. I believe they were junior dancers of a Russian school. It was very last minute, so I asked my friend if she was free and if we could see each other. There were some tickets left and I managed to buy two tickets seated together. On the day, I surprised her with the tickets as an early birthday present before she left. She was so happy. We bith enjoyed the performance. I also really appreciated the opportunity to watch a ballet performance without financially ruining myself in the process.
That was so nice of you. If she wants to take lessons, they're free on CZcams.
@@Tina-qp7py Thank you for the tip, but what she wanted was to see a ballet performance, to have that experience , not to dance 😄
this is so cool because a lot of art, performance especially, is elitist. the common people dont have the luxury to see plays, ballet, or even go to museums. everything is paywalled these days and its killing art.
Thank you for posting this. What an incredible thing to do. Yes, getting "jobs" in ballet companies is incredibly difficult so this is a marvellous way to dance. The fact that people come face to face with it and see it for being something real and vital and a valid form of expression is an added bonus. Bianca is a beautiful soul and a beautiful dancer. Best of luck to her!
Elders who are home more than a lot thoroughly love eyeing such art. Kudos and thank you.
I would definitely stop and watch something like that. What she’s doing is a beautiful thing. I wonder what the ballet theater thinks of it.
I saw her busking on the streets today in Australia. She was incredibly good and had very good interactions with the crowd too.
It was a honour to see her, and I was really enjoying it. Thank you Bianca 👏
What a beautiful young women. Blessing people with her talents…..just wonderful!
Beautiful and inspiring. What a wonderful idea from her mother!
So right! I find it hard to believe that anyone wouldn't stop to watch. Ballet is one of the most beautiful art forms.
My dream body is to be beautiful and strong like a ballet dancer. When I was a child, I dreamed of being a ballet dancer but I didn't achieve what I dreamed of because I was born and grew in a far away farm. Now that I'm retirement, I have a beautiful, strong body like a ballerina,I'm a boxing trainer.
So cool! Everyone should experience seeing ballet in person. ❤
It’s so rare for people to see an actual ballet performance up close. You can really appreciate the work and the art. Former busker myself. ( not ballet though)
All those little girls that have not yet been able to join a class and all those mums and dad's that dreamt but it was never possible( including myself). This is beautiful to watch❤
What a beautiful person, gorgeous dancer! Please keep on bringing ballet to the people. I wish you all the best in setting up your Company❤
I would stop and watch you too☺️
Her dancing is enchanting. If that’s her own choreography she’s astoundingly talented.
As a person who has all my life lived on a tight budget and only dreams of being able to see a ballet performance watching you brought joy to my heart for the gift you gave me with your performance. Thank You
Aww, I was so happy to hear those words. Seeing art is not accessible to anyone and just seeing her graceful art on the streets accessible to anyone is just so.. it makes me feel such joy
She is beautiful. Thank you for making this video and, to her, for sharing this beautiful dance.
What an awesome, amazing and beautiful young woman. Hats off to her 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
God bless her! Such poise beauty and elegance, offered to everyone as a gift!
So beautiful and so brave. I’m inspired by your passion.
You look so happy and satisfied obviously sharing your talent so freely is very worthwhile.
This is wonderful. What a beautiful lady and dancer. As someone who has had RAD training, and also seen many performances over the years, I know how hard and physically demanding this is. I could stand and watch this all day - and would given the opportunity! Keep doing what you're doing - it's enchanting. 🤩
So many forms of art were born on the streets of busy cities centuries before. Very fitting.
I hope some people pay her for her performances! 😍
As someone who grew up in ballet, once I was texting a friend about going back on pointe, and he thought “pointe” was the name of a studio 😆 he didn’t even know what the shoes were, I had to send him a pic! And that moment completely shocked me, as I realized that a lot of ppl rly have never actually been exposed to real ballet before. To see all the surprised and captivated faces of the crowd watching her, it’s rly reminding me not to take dance for granted & I’m soooo happy she’s spreading it to the public
Believe it or not, one can live a perfectly quality life having never seen a bit of ballet.
@@Maspetsyou're quite the killjoy aren't you.
@@Tina-qp7py People need to snap out of the feel-good stupor every now and then and stop ignoring real problems.
@@Maspetsto quote Winston Churchill: "The arts are essential to any complete national life. The State owes it to itself to sustain and encourage them. The country possesses in the Royal Academy an institution of wealth and power for the purpose of encouraging the arts of painting and sculpture … ." what are we doing? What are we fighting for. At the end of the day we do we sit and stare at walls? Do you watch TV? Do you listen to music? Do you read a book? Do you watch videos on CZcams? What do you do after work? Chances are it’s something that involves enjoyment. And usually has some sort of artistic part to it. Whether you like it or not. Do you work to live or live to work? We have been living in constant turmoil for the better part of the last eight years. Constant sorrow. Moments like this have been fleeting. They have not been constant. A moment of joy when we’re surrounded by constant sorrow that is what this was about.
@@Jude74 You seem to be having trouble distinguishing ballet from the existence of all human creativity. That's not going to be a way for you to shoehorn ballet into importance, and it's not important. The narrative here is that people are increasing their well-being by having an opportunity to be exposed to something they cannot afford. But no one needs to be exposed to it. It's just something interesting to see while walking in the street. No one's life is changing and ballet has hurt a lot of people as well. Society might be better off without it.
Wonderful idea💖✨💫
Wow, brilliant. How wonderful to bring ballet to everyone in this way… I hope someday to see her dance!
I admire this young lady’s spirit! If I saw a ballet busker, I would definitely stop and watch-and give money. Ballet is so beautiful, but incredibly difficult. I bow my head in respect to ballerinas who passionately love their craft.
Thats beautiful. I watch something ballet, some little bit, every single day on Utube because it really is wonderful. Today I watched you, how beautiful on many levels because other people really liked to stop and watch. I would definitely stop and watch - to appreciate the very hard work you do.
And so novel for street entertainment. Love it! Thank you for making it accessible to everyone 💖
Fantastic! Art should be available to all, she makes it a reality!
that's what I thought there was no jobs for her as ballet dancer. Oh well may be now she will find the position in Ballet company
@@krasavam1625 Or make her own ballet company!
This would make my day if I saw her.
Ballet is one of the most beautiful expressions imo..you tell a story using your body with grace, every part of your body is used in such an artful and precise way,,,beautiful ❤
The best of luck in giving the public the chance to see you perform your Beautiful Ballet Well Done👏😍
Yes. You are correct. You are making an enormous impact. Thanks for your incredible contribution to the world. You, by yourself are sharing the art of classical ballet dance. An art form that in the past was only enjoyed by the precious few. The ruling elite class. Please, don’t stop 🛑 ❤. Thanks from all of us. The world.
Absolutely marvelous…when I was a kid, I would have LOVED to watch someone do what you are so incredibly good at. I adore the ballet and you are brilliant. I think the ballet world lost a great! But now so many others can marvel at your talents and grace….loved the swan at the end….better than any Swan Lake I’ve seen!
When I was little, I wanted to be a ballerina. Now I’m way too old and too stiff to walk across a flat surface without biffing it. I’m happy watching. Bianca, God’s speed. I pray you are happy and satisfied performing your talent for those who don’t have the opportunity to see it in the theatre.
I saw you in Melbourne - Anzac Day last year. You were beautiful. You did Swan Lake. Thankyou ❤❤❤
I’m glad you were able to see!! Thank you 💖
Culture is a beautiful thing! Absolutely gorgeous, what a gift to all!❤❤❤❤
Love ballerinas! She so stunning and graceful ❤
This is extraordinary… Such an elegant dancer performing for people who would probably never ever see a most amazing performance from one of the best ballet dancers in the world. Thank you for sharing your gift.❤😊
Thank you.
You are making an impact.
Art is for the people
Art is for everyone- Not just those who hide it behind a "paywall" and don't even pay the ballet dancers enough to live off of.
Crazy how the system and those who benefit from it- try to make everyone a slave. Glad you broke free and share.
I am an Artist and I LOVE volunteering to help give kids access to Art training and lessons and exposing them to the MORE in the world.
Keep up the good work.
Much success
Jazz
I be 66 May 16th I never got to see a ballet at live I have never got to see a concert live.I can never afford it being African or black and brown.People can't afford to go to any like this , it's too expensive , Having mental illness, I could never afford to go to places like thank you for showing us common people on the street.Thank you again
I live watching her. What a beautiful story.
This channel will blow up, we need good and interesting news in the world for a change ❤
Super inspiring. This is about to start a worldwide movement 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I saw Bianca in town the other day, I love ballet and thought she was on her way to work at the Opera House though curious why she was already costumed. I will keep a look out next time I'm in town, I'd love to see her dancing. Thank you for bringing beauty to the streets of Sydney Bianca, the world needs more of this right now
If that ain't passion, then idk wth is!! Tysm for not only sharing privilege with the less-fortunate, but also BEING GREAT AT WHAT U DO, wow!!🏆
Voilà une idée carrément géniale ! En France, si on veut faire la même chose, il faut demander une autorisation ! J'ai adoré la danseuse et la vidéo en général. Bravo !🥰
What beauty there is in the world.
Really wonderful, all the luck in the world 🤗
love love love love looooove this!
What an absolutely wonderful young woman, keep that positivity up❤
Too cool! Thank you for dancing in the streets!
Thank you for this story. I think what she's doing is wonderful.
Wonderful 😊
She is AWESOME ❤❤❤ 😭❤️
beautiful dancing and personality thank you for the joy you spread x
Beautiful!! So unique, too - just love this! May God bless you as you make people smile!!
I never thought I'd see the words "guerilla" and "ballerina" put together, but this was a wonderful idea! I loved watching the shots of your feet as you sprang onto and off pointe and hope to see more of your dancing. Merde for all your performances!
I saw the Russian ballet perform in Massachusetts, that was pretty Awesome!
Girrrl! you're your own best advocate and I love love love what you're doing. Never stop being you. Beautiful.
I LOVE this! Thank you for dancing for _eveyone_ it's absolutely beautiful 😍
I just LOVE ballet! 💖🙌😺
I love this! 💖
She needs to make her "stage" bigger so she can travel a bit more and do some leaps, jetés, glissades, etc. 🎉
No. Not with hard pavement under her portable floor. What she is doing is perfect for the space and the audience and her.
This made me cry, so beautiful ❤
Oh this lady is a darling to do this for people and show little girls what to do! She is an inspiration and I hope she earns enough to keep going! A gem of the pavements!
Oh! We saw her in Adelaide at Rundle Mall in Feburary! She was captivating irl
Sie is really an artist❤
Bringing culture to the masses, whatever next! 😮
A beautiful gift. Thank you.
I’m taking two of my younger granddaughters to see the ballet and our local theater afford to go. What a shame. All I kept thinking about is how many children will never get to go because of those ridiculous prices. There were no discounted seats due to the fact that the girls are only three and four years old. It was absolutely worth it without a doubt, but not everybody can afford $100 for a show on a Wednesday.
This just made me very emotional 😭😭😭
This is what beauty is
Good posture. I'm getting my tail back in shape. I'm going to look like that. Such Beautiful Posture.
Perfect body
Beautifully said and done.
Bravo my Beauty!!! Bravo!! 👏💋👌🏆💖
How beautiful, thank you!
How awesome!!!
What an awesome experience…
Thank you! Beautiful!
Beautiful performance,l wish you all the best 🌻
So wonderful!❤❤❤❤
It’s Beautiful! Love this
What a GREAT idea!

She loves ballet ❤
Dance like everyone is watching!
Beautiful
Wonderful ❤❤❤
There is a small theater that is absolutely beautiful in the town that I live in that does one or two ballets a year that are actually really good and thickets are super affordable. My mom used to do ballet so we always go together. 😊
