Bolshoi Ballet Academy. If you’re “inclined” towards becoming a good ballerina, if you have a disposition towards dancing, or even if you’re a genius, it won’t really matter where exactly to study - VBA or BBA; however becoming a great actress / actor is a whole different thing, and, in my opinion, BBA is the best place to be trained at for that particular purpose.
To be honest, when I’m daydreaming about my future kids, I’m always like: “my daughter will complete the “general” ballet training at the Bolshoi , and then she’ll complete the so-called “courses” (last three years) at the VBA, so she’s able to sharpen her technique” :D

I have never worked so hard toward something that I want so badly and to share the stage with dancers who have only done ballet their entire life and they are amazing…and here I am… my 11th year of competing and this was my first ballet competition. I have strictly been training fulltime in ballet for only 5 months… It was so nerve racking! But I did it! I love every minute of it.
