We just started work yesterday after the break and we’re now getting ready for the SFB Diamond Gala. I am going to dance the Pas de Deux from Esmeralda with Joan Boada

La Esmeralda:

During my season with Royal Ballet I got my first gold medal in Luxembourg. I worked with Messerer and Agadjanov on these variations and a good friend of mine Nadine Maclean choreographed the contemporary piece for me and I think it’s the most work I’m proud of. I was very happy to be there as I was offered my first job in Luxembourg.

Contemporary piece

I was 18 years old when I did this competition, it was my last year at Bolshoi school. I won one of the first prizes and got an apprenticeship with Royal Ballet in London.
