away from a crazy legace far as it will go. stay where you are with shoulder pointing backwards janie 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 mark my words at best she's going to dance in the back grove quarter by a mother's once when they hear that of 80 percent of the girls and out of there even though all of them dream of a crown and pink tutu just take off those rose colored spectacles you see how graceful they are when they step but you should know that makes them very miserable because of the pain they suffer from the sacrifices have to be made here or. there is so that's why i want to be a part of it but when i 1st went on stage i felt very scared. my heart was pounding the 1st time i performed on the variance the stage.
11:31 am
it was. ok everyone has devoted. her her. her her. her. her. initial a lot of names on the list split up and then the list gradually get shorter for instance if they put on less or 3 columns of names you'll see about 10 people at last laughs and that by the end it's. like that sometimes it hurts when you really
11:32 am
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. though. there's a lot you still alive barely none of us here ok. training here is 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 is turned down her 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.
11:33 am
11:34 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 the thai experienced during the 1st year of my 4th season but now everybody has come round
11:35 am
the thought thomas i lay down said after all. 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 her. delicately. you. would almost very often oksana finds herself at the center of some gossip to work with but here but this is only natural because when she suddenly appears in a solo part after dancing in the court a ballet for a long time with nobody well everybody starts whispering about her but. i think all
11:36 am
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 that just clearing the air. of reason. is a single minded people think they devote their lives to one cause to work and to serve. 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 done some 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 so 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. and means he's more or less dead
11:37 am
. good goods you want to do a one second you're obviously standing way too close far far too close she's doing the pacu and you'll ever hear of course you can catch it here but she ends up over there. me. my boyfriend is a side. of this. so you could say we spend all of our time together there's no rivalry we stimulate each other to improve our performance what they say stuff like why did you let it go and then he says why did you dive into a stretch i can't. bring all this criticism to one another does help us. i think it upsets him when i do it he's going to take away.
11:38 am
11:39 am
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. it's the distance i was. good evening ladies and gentlemen and tonight's performance will begin in 20 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
11:40 am
11:42 am
looked. and very well might continue watching us until. thousands of american men and women choose to serve in the country's military. every came to a complete. you know oldish kill me and i see how destroyed. any screamed at me and he made me come in and he grabbed my arm and he write me. if you take into account that women don't report because of the extreme retaliation and it's probably somewhere near about half a 1000000 women have now been sexually assaulted in the us military is a very very traumatizing have happened but i've never seen trauma like i've seen from women who are veterans who suffered military sexual trauma reporting rape is
11:43 am
more likely to get the victim punished from the offender and almost 10 year career or chose very invested in and i gave. the founder who was not even. put on the registry this is simply an hour and violence male sexual predators for the large part of target whoever is there to prey upon whether that's a man or woman. guys or financial survival. when customers go by to reduce the price. will reduce and lower. that's undercutting what's good for market good for the global economy.
11:44 am
and i do realize shero christina and i come from different cities and the other girls from st petersburg we usually get up at 730 some of us like to get up early or classes begin at 920. sometimes we have 78 or even 9 lessons lasting until 5 30 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. bench devil or when i was at home i used to have about half an hour to watch t.v. or simply relax but not now i haven't watched t.v. for more than a month maybe even 2 and a half. rented a room with
11:45 am
a girl jaring the 1st year. during the 1st season i was lucky to get a room all to myself even though you can get 2 people in. 2 people live together in a room like this which. i druther stay away from the still metry. some buildings in some petersburg. and unpleasant energy. i think this is one such building. after i came to perth to try to enter ballet school 3 girls out of 8 who were admitted. i was the only one. to finish that school. was a teacher shows to me saying lose weight it is what 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
11:46 am
after a performance i really want to say which is all i can afford is a glass of yogurt. is a big problem for us back home you can eat whatever you want but here you have to be sent 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 if you overdo it you have to exercise i know 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 that she's still a kid and wants everything but she's not allowed to. sell 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 figure. don't
11:47 am
cross your feet and don't drag them like that point your toes are not jumping at old. junk they're. junk. now don't 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 style that is overlooked in the academy's corridors we make them a swathe here. but
11:48 am
seriously and there she is i have supported diana since she was around $34.00 and. i've trained her throughout the years that she has been here. it's your shirt regrettably i don't have much opportunity for that now with such a talented student is a great joy for the teacher. kind of dealing with human genome really well every year she progress. we have predicted should get to way she is now known as you know it no no i really don't
11:49 am
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. just to be delisted if you turned down an offer to done so because you have an injury of some things to be pushing the they. point to make that offer again because you end up being blacklisted. now after
11:50 am
a strained tendon but i keep on working anyway. because i realize that if i take a break i won't catch a new bill one time i had to own a ligament 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. you know one time oksana was told to prepare 7 numbers in a short period of time before they were totally different routines she rehearsed them for 4 or 5 hours a day. then she woke up in the morning and saw that her knee had completely swollen up.
11:51 am
so i took all those painkillers and i still done. just 2nd oh 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 i was meant to be the one day off into wakes. and now it's his and. while. most course i'm going to have children. family is worse i treasure most of all.
11:52 am
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 1st 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 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 their perception of
11:53 am
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. ok once desert that voice everyone got sick. 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 might have never become a teacher. and the 2nd part of life is no less interesting than the 1st one in a different way yes but still. shoulder blades one to the arm comes back up 3 floor and
11:54 am
legs stretching out before they head 123. and 4. up on. that on. that one. help me get admitted to the school and become a ballet dancer i earned a reputation because of her the she was the 1st to read something in my eyes that prompted her to look after me she has 4 daughters of her own and i guess you can call me her. oh yeah now i've got 5 nice grandchildren all i can say about them is that they're simply fantastic. i only had daughters. but now i have 3 grandsons and
11:55 am
2 granddaughters. that they were. watching diana on strange 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 that she would probably end a 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 pads just to breathe the atmosphere of dance she doesn't aspire for more because she's not a lead ballerina about the world that you've been blocking the dancers doing sello pad so prima ballerina is find it very difficult to write an end to that can really is. that they want more of the same which has.
11:56 am
to do you feel like a grown up artist performing on the big stage you have a golden crown and a picture to you that's why you have everything. and i am lucky because there are many times in case of all dances at the main city there is a certain some give up too early and stop short in the development and then some and just not given a chance meeting but then the sometimes you see at the dances that us and you think you well i wish i could dance that well. with. can.
11:57 am
and then pain years in the process of started 10 years i think it's time to shake things up maybe change the branding maybe the format here is what i've been thinking about next season related episodes filmed on an island expert fight about for a trophy what do you think ok a more affordable option 25 text birds. and one red rose another suggestion geopolitical jeopardy parody no political cookout where we will literally wrote the elites. late night show it's
11:58 am
a rare form of these days and it's cheap all you need is an old microphone in a printed banner. to leave me with one of my girls i can do this candle after politics gone wild like music. ok crosstalk is not about hype it's about meaning 10 years of talk and still going strong. peter if you want to change something why don't we get rid of the bow tie no that is too much. i don't know what. the. law is on the. street. when he does it cause you know the false so. you can
