Ballet instructor Christina Valdez was so enraptured by the beauty of Yuzu’s skating that she choreographed 2 ballet dances inspired by him and also gave an online class on the similarities between ballet and his skating. I love watching ballet and I enjoyed her videos a lot! Beauty, ballet and Yuzuru Hanyu - artistic director of Crescendo Conservatory gives a lecture about the similarities between ballet and Yuzuru Hanyu’s figure skating. Notte Stellata - a ballet tribute to Yuzuru HanyuHaru yo Koi - a ballet inspired by Yuzuru Hanyu(photo and videos credit: Christina Valdez)Another ballet-related video: a Japanese professional ballet dancer watches Yuzu’s Chopin Ballade No.1 and talks about it (with English subs). It’s quite funny cos he gushes and is unabashedly a huge fanboy, but with good reason! As he shows us in his video. :) Yamakai TV In 2016, Yuzu was also praised by Tetsuya Kumakawa, a former principal dancer with The Royal Ballet. I translated his words from Japanese here.There is method to our madness. :) -- source link
