Schooling- Vaganova Ballet Academy
In this class, Misha teaches his own pirouette masterclass taking you through his own personal exercises to improve balance and coordination.
Misha is a very gifted dancer and excels in his pirouettes and virtuosity but even with natural ability, technique must of course be learned and practiced. Misha’s class begins with barre work exercises which he himself practices to prepare his body and sharpen his technique.
Moving on from the preparatory barre exercises, Misha moves to the centre and demonstrates turning combinations and also some pirouette sequences from repertoire, always explaining what he’s doing in great detail.
Follow along with Misha as he demonstrates his beautiful pirouettes and listen as he shares his personal tips and tricks, or simply watch and enjoy!
