"It's the work" and "to be a man of your own mind" are sentiments you hear over and over from great artists.

😉4:30-4:38 Baryshnikov describes how Precise Placement made him see technique as “easy” and “not a problem”, once he had mastered it. An interview that boggled my mind years ago, I now understand what this man is saying thanks to Eric Conrad. Cheers!

Agree.there is SO much information and insight in this short clip. In addition to Baryshnikov's words which affirm Eric Conrad's teaching and commentary I noticed the female body shapes seen in the academy and company classes are much different to those of today. I think Eric has already spoken in regard to this issue previously. Great clip - so enjoyable to see 'young' Misha speaking about his training. Thanks for sharing

As I watched this, it came to mind that another great dancer, and contemporary of Misha's (and Kevin McKenzie), that we never hear from is Cynthia Gregory. What a pity.

Is there a video about Sergei Polunin in this channel?
