- Olivia is an up and coming corps member at NYCB who has been rocking every soloist opportunity she has been given on our grand stage. She just launched her Ballet Inspired Fitness during quarantine from her family home in Mobile, Alabama. We caught up after months apart and discussed what it's like to have a sibling in the company, finding the joy of teaching during this dark time, and our secret tips for staying in shape. Thanks for the catch up Olivia!!!
Wonderful to see how the younger members of the company are doing and thriving through the pandemic. They are certainly benefiting from the discipline, dedication, and drive they've developed through the years of their training. If the rest of us could only get our acts together as they have, we'd be in a far better place! Thanks for sharing!
Ooh such a delightful interview. Olivia radiates such a lovely energy✨. And you know Megan..I adore you. You never seek the limelight. You always allow your guest to shine...and you only compliment that. I feel this is such a natural place and gift for others to actually be championed and recognized for their greatness because of you. Yes...that is why these interviews.. conversations..celebrations between you and your guests are so unique and special. 💖✨✨
I agree, Megan has a wonderful gift for these interviews!
What a wonderful uplifting interview. You and Olivia are adorable together. Thanks for the uplift❤️
So excited for this interview! She’s adorable and so sweet!! I’m so excited for her future with the company. Definitely starting to find her niche and great business sense, she will go far! 😍❤️
I love these interviews so much, especially the ones with corp members! It's so cool to get to hear from NYCB dancers at various stages in their careers.
I love that she wants to teach at SAB. It goes back to what Jock Soto said about the intent being that senior performers teach at SAB while they are still performing.
Yea best part of my week!
❤️❤️ She’s the best!
Just got back into the studio 2 days ago teaching real kids again and felt so lucky!!! This pandemic is certainly teaching us how to be in the moment and enjoying every single bits...I hope we are going to keep this feeling alive for a while! 💜
Such a delightful interview, Megan.
Megan, I love your interviews so so much! Thank you so so much for sharing!!
I would love to see an interview with you and dancers (or other ballet 🩰 people, like choreographers) from other countries and companies around the world, that would be so interesting... what do you think?
Maybe you could ask Maria Khoreva from Marinskii, for example? Her English is great and she also likes to share her stories on YT. It would be so cool 😎 to listen to both of you how you talk about your life as a ballet dancer 😊
Another enjoyable interview!
You should interview Lauren Lovette!
YEaahhh!! I needed this today!
Lovely interview❤
I do want to sit back and watch a class. It's not voyeurism. I want to know how hard certain levels are before I commit. I am starting all over again, but I am not an absolute beginner. But I feel like I would be a weird guy paying to watch class to ascertain difficulty for the very reasons you all mention. I am also working through post military injuries, so I really need placement maybe? But I know there are weirdos out there.
When’s the next interview?
Olivia's last name is misspelled -- it's Mackinnon with two n's.
I'm sure you are busy with rehearsals. Please update your new audience!
I wish you did more of these the interviews are so entertaining and funny! But the inappropriate posts are just people trying to get seen and stand out and it’s disgusting.
