What a wonderful dancer with a beautiful energy, so lovely to listen to. Congratulations 🎉
Her accent is so endearing and her dancing is breathtaking to the point of nearly heartbreaking! Such stage presence and at 31 looking 17, her ballet career may be longer than most barring an injury (God forbid!). What an amazing woman and dancer! Bravo! Bravissimo!
She is a pleasure to listen and a pleasure to watch ..saw her in initial Mayerling and Onegin ...fabulous 👏👏
She is a beautiful dancer and woman and so charming!
Such a delight to see and to hear. She is lovely.
What a delightful woman, mesmerizing actress, and magnificent dancer.
Elisa you are a treasure! May you continue to “go with the flow” and catch little dreams for yourself always. 💐💐💐🩰 Congratulations from Boston, RB
Absolutely stunning!
Congratulations! Beautiful performances, lovely personality, fascinating career.
I wish her many more years of injury-free ballet bliss! 👏
She marches to her own beat for sure
Makes it look so easy! Loved the stories! Brava!
Yes, her speaking of disasters happening on stage brings back memories. They don’t happen very often, but they Do happen. I think it is probably why we have so many improvisational classes. They help us think on the spot if something goes wrong. I used to hate, Hate, HATE improv classes, but they saved me and many of us in the past. What’s more, when needed, certain steps can what we plan to do and who we need on stage to pull it off. Almost like a dancers code.
I wish she would clip her fringe back or wear a headband!
Why?
😢
She looks so lovely with fringe👌🏻
Better yet, especially as a dancer, grow it out.
She may have tension alopecia, or weak hair that breaks when it is snatched. However if you look at her stage makeup and hair she’s exquisite.
If her fringe is her only fault you’re reaching. 😊🥰
Why is she pronouncing ballet without the silent t?
In German, it's "Ballett" with a spoken "t". However, she emphasizes the first syllabil, like in English.
Yes, it irks me a little how she pronounces the word. Also, I don't understand how she can still have such a strong accent when she's lived abroad for most of her life. There's something about her that bothers me (a pet peeve of mine is adult women speaking like little girls), but she dances beautifully... and that's what matters most.
Right choice not to consider the Royal Ballet Company.
I'm interested: why do you say so?
