Here’s a short video of Swan Lake performed in perhaps a way you’ve never seen it done before.
The dominion, agility, flexibility, discipline, control and government of the body expressed by the lead dancers are breath-taking. It’s certainly proof that if you can think it, you can do it.
Great Chinese State Circus – Swan Lake
Wow! What a beautiful expression of Soul!
Absolutely beautiful…thank you!
Inspiring grace and power beyond belief! What a vision of beauty that we see more clearly here and everywhere as we “let the male and female of God’s creation appear” (Science and Health, Mary Baker Eddy, p. 249:5) . Thanks for sharing!
What a beautiful blending of ballet and gymnastics! “We are all capable of more….” Thank you for sharing this Evan!
Never in my life have I seen this grace and love and soul of God’s perfection demonstrated with such skill and dedication that comes purely from 3rd degree whether or not that is understood by the performers……..it is God’s world of perfect reflection. I am stunned into so much pounding joy.
Thank you.

Incredibly beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
They won’t make us forget Fonteyn and Nureyev, but it is a stunning demonstration of acrobatics performed by classical dancers. And of course the metaphysical point you make is so true.
Thanks for bringing this to us.
Amazing, but rarely do we know the story behind such feats. The young lady looks terribly emaciated. She can do this with her body, but is she okay? I think we should be careful not to be overawed by feats of the body. Often there is not great harmony behind the scenes, and we can appear to condone a condition of near self-torture by only being awed at what is apparent outwardly to the senses in a performance that doesn’t really tell the whole story. Spiritual dominion, agility, flexibility, discipline, control and government are far more important than those same qualities applied to the material body.
