Hyvaa Itsenäisyyspäivää! Kiitos Suomi!

Such an immense honour and privilege to be invited by the President of Finland Mr. Stubb to the Presidential Castle to celebrate Finlands Independence Day. @violettakeller was by far the most elegant, poetic and decadent beauty and I was so so so proud to be by her side. This day is an extremely big deal for Finns and people who live in Finland so I’m still processing the fact that we could be a part of an event of this stature. Such a pleasure to share with dear @javiertorresfnb our dashing ballet director! Unbelievable gratitude all around - Definitely won’t be the last post of pictures from the castle!

I’m so happy to say last night I was promoted to First Soloist after my debut of Prince Desiree in @javiertorresfnb The Sleeping Beauty.

In so many ways this is such a dream come true, I remember being a young kid falling in love with ballet through watching the Royal Ballet perform sleeping beauty in my local movie theatre in Asheville, NC with my sister. Seeing this really opened up my world and put the picture in my head that I wanted to go to London - few years down the line I ended up being accepted into the school were I studied for 3 years and got to see performances of Sleeping Beauty and soooooo many more fantastic productions - seeing each dancers nuances and artistic decisions was such an important and inspiring experience that i’m very lucky to have witnessed.

Now even a few more years down the line i’m dancing with my beautiful company in Finland and to get the opportunity to dance this ballet is truly a full circle - to my coaches Ingrid and Eun ji, I am so indepted to your guidance and help, and I can’t wait to continue working on this role for the next shows. To Hye Ji it is an honor to get to work with you again and I enjoy dancing with you immensely! To Javier I appreciate your support always ! To my family, thank you for always sacrificing everything for me and supporting me through thick and thin! To my dear friends I love you all and I appreciate your dear support! And to Violetta your support is everything - I love you so so so so so much! by @clarkeselgroth

🦢 Meet Claire and Alexander, a young couple at King Ludwig’s court in John Neumeier’s ILLUSIONS – LIKE SWAN LAKE. Their genuine, joyful love offers a glimpse of the happiness Ludwig longs for but cannot possess — while they find love in the real world, he retreats ever deeper into the idealized world of „Swan Lake“, where he can live the love that reality denies him.

Enjoy this pas de deux with Carollina Bastos (@carollina_bastos) and Clark Eslegroth (@clarkeselgroth), and join us for the live experience on 2, 3 & 4 October at Festspielhaus Baden-Baden (@festspielhausbadenbaden)✨

🎟️ Book your tickets now at Staatsballett.de!

Meet Claire und Alexander, ein junges Paar am Hof König Ludwigs in John Neumeiers ILLUSIONEN – WIE SCHWANENSEE. Ihre aufrichtige, unbeschwerte Liebe verkörpert ein Stück jenes Glücks, nach dem Ludwig sich sehnt, das ihm aber verwehrt bleibt. Während Claire und Alexander ihre Liebe in der Wirklichkeit leben, zieht sich Ludwig immer tiefer in die idealisierte Welt des „Schwanensees“ zurück – in eine Welt, in der er die Liebe leben kann, die ihm im wirklichen Leben versagt bleibt.

Genießt diesen Pas de deux mit Carollina Bastos und Clark Eslegroth und erlebt ILLUSIONEN – WIE SCHWANENSEE am 2., 3. & 4. Oktober live im Festspielhaus Baden-Baden. ✨
