Choreographer Ekaterina Belova told us about training sessions with Academy group exercise gymnasts

Ekaterina Belova, the Academy choreographer and the former artist of the State Academic Folk Dance Ensemble named after Igor Moiseyev, conducts training sessions for group exercise gymnasts that passed the selection to the Academy.

After the next workout, the professional explained to us, what difficulties gymnasts face during training sessions.

"When the selection stage was held, all gymnasts said that classical choreography was the most difficult part for them. Apparently, they do not always practice as much as they should, because it is necessary to take part in it on a regular basis. The quality of work has changed in choreography. We understood what, how and why we do all this. We correct every mistake. But every day it becomes easier, more reliable, and better for children.  What I need from them, what classical choreography requires, they started doing."

Ekaterina Belova also explained, what moments are in the strong focus at the choreography studies.

"First of all, it's training the body, the beauty of the lines, the development of the quality of the body. Since children are preparing for showcase performances, they should be very colorful, done right, because at first glance any professional will see the quality of the work of the teacher, the child, and the Academy itself."
