Is she doing a good job from a technical standpoint? Edit: welp, people in the comments are saying how big of a deal a grand prix is. But I still wanna get the sense of how skillful she is
@@kkuwura hey! I was also competing in the same year in the same competition as Kazuha. As a pre professional Ballerina who has been in countless competitions for 5 years, this competition is well know in the ballet world, however, it is not ranked a prestigious competition as I think the commercially well known prestigious competitions are YAGP, Moscow, Varna, and Prix De Lausanne. In this video, I also did the same variation as her, just that I was in one category younger than her. I have seen this live in 2018 and i would say that she has strong technique and good artistry. Shes also very stable! So overall, she is a highly skilled ballet dancer! Hope this answers your question!
@@emilykoe1445 I joined ballet for only 6 months to know the basic technique. I can see Kazuha has a stable power, not overpower not too low. This is awesome 👍.
No wonder why HYBE is always trying to showcase Kazuha's ballerina skills in their performances, pushing her ballet side, it would be a waste not acknowledge how talented this girl is, she's not just an idol, she's a professional dancer, really really talented, want her to show her ballerina skills forever!! Mesmerizing
She chose the very best moment to swich careers. A career of a ballet dancer is not a very long one and now she has a different scene to showcase her talents to wider audience.
...honestly I think the lifespan of a ballerina and idol's career is about the same. You're only as good as your body and once you age out, there isn't much left for you. Both are grueling and physically, emotionally and psychologically pressuring, but being an idol is so much more glamorous.
I think what the poster means is that by being an idol & celebrity, Kazuha has more career options once she finishes her time as an idol and it gives her a substantial fanbase that will support her in her next endeavour, whether she chooses to transition to being an actress (most likely) or be a host or soloist. She can remain in the entertainment industry for a long time if her transition is successful.
both have their pros and cons to be honest... being a ballerina means that her circle of audience would be more niche and specialized, whereas her current path as an idol caters more to the general public but she'd have far more opportunities and exposure to the entertainment industry. from the looks of it right now, after lesserafim, i bet kazuha would go into modelling since she already has deals signed with calvin klein, and hybe has a pretty big infrastructure for models. and ngl kazuha would look amazing as a givenchy or valentino model HAHAHHAHAHA
@@twidlings327 That is true but being a professional ballerina can also give you a steady income, a lot of retired ballerinas open up their own studios etc. Even if they don't they can be teachers and they don't have to change their career once they retire (unlike switching from idol to actress). Personal preference if they want a quiet life or not but if you're a good ballerina it can be very rewarding as well.
@@sensen520715 is (unfortunately) not an absurdly young of an age for idol standards. heck, if she had quit to become an idol right after this performance she'd probably be ready debut in a few months or so.
@@user-mc1if4uw3j 그냥 맥락이 저런 말이 있을만큼 많은 것을 필요로 하고 많은 것을 쏟아야 하는 발레를 했는데 다 뒤로 하고 아이돌이 된 게 멋지다 감동적이다 이런 뜻이잖음... 세계적인 발레리나들이랑 어깨 나란히 할, 신이 내린 실력을 가졌는데~ 같은 뜻이 아니라
she attended bolshoi ballet academy, royal ballet academy and de nationale balletacademie, all absolutely top ballet schools for top companies. asian grand prix is actually a smaller ballet comp compared to YAGP, the IBCs (especially Varna, Margot Fonteyn and I believe USA too) and the most prestigious comp I’ve seen around: prix de lausanne. I believe for PDL you have to be selected and there are only 75 spots. the rest of the comps accept all entries and AFAIK, around 1200 candidates are selected for YAGP finals (after several National and international comps and semi-finals from several countries). with kazuha’s list of schooling history, I’m not surprised if she attended them through scholarships awarded through any of these major comps! she probably has done more than AGP ✨☺️ (eta: apparently she was scouted for the Dutch school, even better! takes a lot of talent to be scouted for a top school)
@@UnBesoDeCristal my point is that this isn't some sort of huge, prestigious competition.. love kazuha, love seeing ballet representation in kpop, but this is a upper mid-tier children and youths' competition
She dance gracefully but still do, now she's a better performance after in le sserafim she spike up her beautiful attitude, she's now more confident, if she doing it again guess she will more enjoyed her performance mood
