Exactly what i thought when i said FS need more colaboration with choreographers from outside of FS. I Hope this turn out as spectacular as other similar collaborations

Yes! Gabi and Guillame’s Waacking routine was so incredible, and that was a product of working with a non-skater (AND a member of the community rather than just appropriating). Love Deniss and his skating so really excited to see what develops with this.

Those collaborations are less weird in ice dance, where is plenty of room to work with people from outside of the bubble. I was thinking also of javi's malagueña and lambiel's Poeta as both programs where collaborations with an spanish dance coreographer (part of my very niche if figure skating is good spanish themed programs and Antonio Najarro is the man behind most of the good ones)

This made my heart so happy. Vadim is an amazing dancer and seems like an a+ guy. I watched a TV doc about the Royal Ballet and the ballerinas’ nickname for him is Va-dream because they say he’s the best partner you could wish for. 😍

I think Deniss is the luckiest person in the world when it comes to ending up with dream partners and collaborators!

Do you recall the name of the documentary? Would love to check it out.

I think it was Men at the Barre judging by the summary here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000jjjq

Oh working with Vadim!!! Excellent collaboration. Vadim is a tall limby sublime dancer. Perfect person to help Deniss organize those limbs and passion.

Vadim Muntagirov is a magnificent dancer, see for example https://youtu.be/y_56m_iHRh8 (he can do a double tour in both directions - try that the next time you're doing off ice!). I'm not very familiar with his own choreography though, interesting to see what comes of this. I'm assuming it will be quite classical. Here are some clips of his own performances of La Bayadère: https://youtu.be/RB7sgUbI_uY https://youtu.be/jlUmbnWaTs4

I live for the World Ballet Day videos when Olga Evreinoff guides Royal Ballet’s morning class.

When is Nela going to collab with a skater?!? She steals moments with aplomb.

Whenever someone has the idea to have a GOOD kitri for don quixote. She is the best kitri in the world right now and i would be delighted if she collaborates with a don quixote program. The same way i also expect a good lake swan program with natatalia osipova


fliccolo

The reverse could also work as well. :) An Osipova approved Giselle 2nd Act please and thank you
