7:29 am
the u.s. government project arrow marty has been in place for twenty years this project was designed to break the media monopoly of cuban television by putting u.s. government propaganda up to t.v. screens this injection of american t.v. works with a blimp and a c one thirty military plane working in tandem you know this would actually be a major achievement in the history of technology if it actually worked this program which over the years has built up a billion taxpayer dollars simply does not work but continues to exist despite the cuban government completely blocking the transmission the official logic of continuing the program is that it would send a bad message to the cuban government if they stopped brilliance and action but the big question is who gives the u.s. government the right to propagandize cubans just because they have a different lifestyle doesn't mean it is wrong and the u.s. government does has the right to destroy it and even if cubans on mass actually do hate their system then it is their job to change cuba not the military industrial complex and its cronies in washington but that's just my opinion.
7:30 am
but i want my dream of becoming a famous ballerina. stuffed with a crown and to think to say. oh it's just me now i really want to dance that kind of twine and that. i laugh that i see. i've dreamed of being a prima ballerina since i was a child that i like to dance solo parts of course but i have no problem dancing in the court a valet i don't want other ballerinas to be jealous of me to the point of putting
7:31 am
glass in my shoes they did that once to a dancer i want everything to be smooth. sailing in a date like yesterday nice towards the bar shoulders away from it raise your legs far as it will go you stay where you are with shoulder pointing backwards sharing your elbow feedback shave to fit backwards. while my free mother bringing her child to the academy believe she will be an accomplished delayed dancer you've raised your child and gone through all the trouble to hand her over but not my words at best she's going to play mothers wince when they hear that eighty percent of the girls end up there even though all of them dream of a crown and things to to just take off those rose colored spectacles pulls you see
7:32 am
how graceful they are when they step but you should know that makes them very miserable because of the pain they suffer from the sekret feiss have to be made here or the. theatre is so big that's why i want to be a part of it but when i first went on stage i felt very scared. my heart was pounding the first time i performed on the variance the stage. was here. ok everyone has devoted. her. her her. her.
7:33 am
her. initial a lot of names on the last battle and then the last grade you know i get shorter for instance if they put on less or three columns of names you'll see about ten people at last laughs and that by the end it's. like that sometimes it hurts when you really want to like we have bigger girls who are never chosen for any parts and they usually get upset when the lists are put out they think i hope i'll be there but they aren't the thing is they're not very good candidates to begin with. to go . there's a lot of you still alive billy none of us here ok. training here is
7:34 am
a very stressful experience exams and rehearsals are a never ending process evaluations are stressful as well the child is nervous because she doesn't know if her performance is good enough to be accepted if she's turned down his self-esteem suffers you have to be very strong mentally and physically to face up to the challenge if you're turned down you don't need to give up on everything. there are many up and coming dancers in the theatre. everybody is given the opportunity to dance and. sometimes some of them have plenty of work. for some people like me there were periods where i had nothing to do until recently . thank you luckily i'm much busier this season.
7:35 am
7:36 am
after her singing and performing some of the parts i'm completely exhausted so nobody envious me because they know it's hard. to see that you're almost ready to die. when you leave the court about to do so you feel very lonely because some of your friends have turned away from me but that's the sort of situation that i experienced during the first year of my fourth season but know everybody has come around the thought thomas i don't said after oh. a little closer to it should be no distance between you take a step towards her and make sure her chest faces this way right up to to her.
7:37 am
delicately. very often oksana finds herself at the center of some gossip to work with but this is only natural because when she suddenly appears in a solo part after dancing in the corridor ballet for a long time with nobody well everybody starts whispering about her. i think all those rumors are started by many other dancers wanting to take her place in. a film with the guys are far easier to deal with in general they are better at agreeing on things and just clearing the air. dunces a single minded people they devote their lives to one cause to work and to serve.
7:38 am
their audience should only see the results of their labor up there on the stage illuminated by the spotlight. who sometimes they'll spend months or maybe years training just to be able to dance a beautiful variation that lasts maybe a couple of minutes. at the end of the day the ballet dancer is totally played out but so much say that he looks more dead than alive and it's no wonder people say that if a ballet dancer doesn't feel pain when he gets up or used the. dead. goods goods you want to do a one second you're obviously standing way too close far far too close she's doing the cuckoo and you'll ever hear of course you can catch it here but she ends up over there. my boyfriend is a silo. so you could say we spend all of our time together but there's no rivalry
7:39 am
we stimulate each other to improve our performance what they say stuff like why did you let go of it and then he says why did you dive into a stretch i can't say for you that sort of thing all this criticism to one another does help us. i think it upsets him when i do it he's going to take away. your brain is always about work it never takes a rest we argue a lot because we do need to relax to forget all about our work and switch to other activities but that never happens for instance roxanne i might have to dance in new ballets while there's nothing for me to do.
7:40 am
goodness i find it hard to dance on this stage it's true that i always get nervous dancing on other stages because i feel responsible for what i'm doing. but this stage squeezes a good deal of moral and physical strength out of me i don't know why perhaps there's something in its history traditions or the audience that makes performing here is so difficult just so much.
7:41 am
good evening ladies and gentlemen tonight's performance will begin in twenty minutes. because what you see on stage looks gloriously beautiful and everything seems as it should be but i know it's the result of very hard work and if someone were to ask me whether i'd like to go through all of that again with the knowledge i have now i'd think twice before answering the question you know the least you.
7:42 am
interview. below to. play. the admission free accreditation three times for charges free. range month free. three stooges free.
7:43 am
the old free blog counseling videos for your media projects a free media dog r t v dot com. the fuss defines a country's success plug the faceless figures of economic growth. for a factual standard of living play. news today. these are the images the world has been seeing from the
7:44 am
streets of canada. trying to corporations are all today. two or three of us share a room christina and i come from different cities and the other girls from st petersburg we usually get up at seven thirty some of us like to get up early or classes begin at nine twenty sometimes we have seven eight or even nine lessons lasting until five thirty pm. sometimes we have rehearsals after that then we do our homework so some of us come here to strach others to play the piano.
7:45 am
bench before us when i was at home i used to have about half an hour to watch t.v. or simply relax but now i haven't watched t.v. for more than a month maybe even two and a half. i rented a room with a girl jaring the first year. during the first season i was lucky to get a room all to myself even though you can get two people in here. downstairs two people live together in a room like this which. i druther stay away from the stoma tree. some buildings in some petersburg said to him it an unpleasant energy and i think this is one such building. credibility after i came to perth to try to enter ballet school three girls out of
7:46 am
eight who were admitted. i was the only one. to finish that school. was a teacher shouted at me saying lose weight it is. true that keeping in shape is quite a challenge i try not to eat anything before going to bed but when i come home after a performance i really want to do which is all i can afford is a glass of yogurt for going to. it is a big problem for us back home you can eat whatever you want but here you have to be thin sometimes it's hard to hold back yassir allowed to eat more or less what you like but only a small portion of the time and if you overdo it you have to exercise i know all of that sugar and up in the thighs and if you become too fat they kick you out. it's hard for putting him out because everybody is eating fruit and chocolates and drinking juice in front of her she isn't allowed to eat those things it's clear
7:47 am
that she's still a kid and wants everything but she's not allowed. sally what annoys me most of all is that my teacher charles me that i do very well but then she takes home some marks because she says i haven't got the right feeder. don't cross your feet and don't drag them like that pointer to. no jumping at old. junk they're. junk. but not the last you managed to push every other time you were going like this you need to go up. talented children are few and far between that's why we have to make the others do things to the best of their ability want them to be up to the mark so that ballet companies get good dances after graduation fortunately no stole it is
7:48 am
overlooked in the academy's corridors we make them a swathe here. yes but you're see and there she is now i have supported diana since she was in third four and. i've trained her throughout the years that she has been here. here regrettably i don't have much opportunity for that now with such a talented student is a great joy for the teacher. kind
7:49 am
of dealing with human genome really well every year she progress. we have predicted should get to a she is now you know with no no i really don't think sarah frankly she wasn't doing very well at the time but she had no qualms about it when am i supposed to do she would ask shall i work on the steps ok that's exactly what i'm going to do she just did it and made progress.
7:50 am
just to be delisted if you turned down an offer to don so late parts because you have an injury of some things to be sure they want to make that offer again because you end up being blacklisted it's just the road. now after the strain tendon but i keep on working anyway. because i realized that if i take a break i won't catch a new blue one time i had to leave mints of course i didn't want the shame of refusing the patents one like. anyway i need the injury would still somehow interfere with my dancing regardless. but soon i changed my mind afterwards i can do it i can do it i said and that's why i got laid so we're crazy . you know one time oksana was told to prepare seven numbers in a short period of time before they were totally different routines she rehearsed
7:51 am
them for four or five hours a day. then she woke up in the morning and saw that her knee had completely swollen up. so i took all those painkillers and i still danced. just a second i know how excited are you going to show up at tomorrow's rehearsal wasn't it cancelled please come. ok i will. think what it seems no one wants to go tomorrow it was meant to be the one day off into a. home and now it isn't. course
7:52 am
i'm going to have children. family is worse i treasure most of all. everybody says that. she says that because it's not on her mind right now but if she has to choose between being a prima ballerina and having a family. but she'll settle for the former. as for me i have the same approach. work will come first as long as the outlook is good. i know that if i have a child i won't be able to devote myself completely to the profession i keep trying to convince myself that children can wait but i think about it all the time the
7:53 am
touch with my man. it never occurred to me that what i'm doing might be seen as a desire to build a career you know i have chosen an artistic path of my own my accomplishments are the result of my inner development they give me strength of the perception of life and its purpose i take an earnest view of my development i want to enjoy the process and make sure that this period of my life lasts for as long as it can i realize that a child would turn my life upside down. now ok what's this or that voice everyone got sick of and i'm very insecure i used to dream of being a prima ballerina so i would even the appearance solo part that they played with the idea of allowing me to dance a really important role but i had a problem with my knee at the time perhaps it's for the best because otherwise i
7:54 am
might have never become a teacher. and the second part of life is no less interesting than the first one in a different way yes but still. shoulder blades one to the arm comes back up three floor and legs trenching up for the head one two three. and four. bob on. that on. that down. help me get admitted to the school and become a ballet dancer i earned a reputation because of her the she was the first to read something in my eyes that prompted her to look after me she has four daughters of her own and i guess you can
7:55 am
call me her first. oh. yeah i've got five nice grandchildren all i can say about them is that they're simply fantastic. i only had daughters. but now i have three grandsons and two granddaughters. that we are. watching diana on stay or bring her to sing with her took a good deal of my time and probably more than i could have spent with my daughter lisa but she never complained she'd probably end to stude what kind of done sedan i was. and lisa was following her own fan. she gave birth to a child recently. she might dance in mind of pants just to breathe the atmosphere of dance she doesn't aspire for more because she's not
