Well again I’m sitting at an airport noticing that my last post has been more than a month ago. Hmmm. My plane from Tokyo to Frankfurt is late for three hours, what can I do 
.
Anyway yesterday I had my show in Tokyo which went really well. After my vacation period in Varna (what? I am on vacation…impossible! hahaha) I got back in shape and went for a week to Japan to perform first in Takamtsu and then in Tokyo and now I’m heading back home.
4 days in Frankfurt to recover from the Jet-lag and get back in shape for class.
(As you might or might not know there are different kinds of ‘being in shape’. To be in shape for rehearsing is different than to be performing. Then again for every performance and for even every Pas de deux you need different shapes, as different muscle groups are needed to perform. Actually it’s logical. Different kinds of jumps, different muscles, different shape.)
Well after that i am going for a week to Vilnius, Lithuania to prepare the role of Solor, which I’ll be doing there in December for the first time. My partner will be again Miki Hamanaka as Nikiya and Natalia Ledovskaya as Gamzatti.
After that I will be in Vienna for a week to visit friends and do some trainings there.
And I guess then I’ll be writing again to update you .
By the way I have good news for my Mexican followers and friends. As it is planned I will be very probably performing in Guadalajara on September 26. Stay tuned for updates and news concerning that show.
Anyway I’ll write again, I just don’t know when
Bye and wish me a good flight!

Hi Daniil, I find it interesting the way you describe the different kind of shapes. You are totally right when you talk about the fact that different roles need different shapes. Although, I think one specification should be added. Even though there are a lot of different muscle groups, their number is not infinite. The same muscle groups work in a lot of different movements. In reality, for a lot of movements, the muscles that work in ballet are mostly the same for different steps. Fer exemple, they are the same if you do a grand jeté or a sissonne arabesque. The biggest difference concern the quality of movement. In some cases, different muscles groups need more strenght, in other cases it can be power, or else.
I really enjoy watching you dance!
