Every little girl in the early 1960s wanted a ballerina cake topper! I was just a baby yet my mom re used those glass figurines with the actual tulle fabric as the ballet skirt year after year. Suzanne farrell was ....the Beatles of ballet. Allllll four of them 😂
I auditioned for her school a couple times back in the day. I remember when she was teaching the class, she would stand against the mirror and look up to the sky; and mutter to herself. It almost looked like she was talking to someone in heaven, maybe she was channeling something. Anyway, when she would teach the combinations, she would say, "apple orange, orange, apple, apple, apple," as she clapped her hands together. I'll never forget that. It was quite a unique way she would show the steps.

Seeking Truth so cool!! Been reading about neuro plasticity and this is so ahead of our time in teaching ballet. Creates different neuro pathways.
Fascinating! She is indeed other worldly...

How can I see a video of Farrell dancing "Meditation"? Is there a video on youtube or in a store to buy?
Sound is horrific but you can at least SEE some of what she's talking about. czcams.com/video/o7OBWrHbnsA/video.html
A very old video with bad sound together with Damboise is on YT-PBS USA dance NYC Ballet
Thank you!
