I've seen this variation way too many times BUT Gaya makes always makes me feel like it's my first time. You are sooo talented!!! I can't wait to watch you grow as a dancer!
She has a brilliant stage feeling. There is kind of emotion in her dance. That is not what you can always see from a 11-year-old girl. Even Miko could not be better when she was 11 :P
She is just a wonderful example for the fact that you dont have to have a crazy arch or crazy hyperextanded legs to become a dancer. All you need is crazy passion and hard work.
She's wonderful. Her port de bras is absolutely phenomenal for her age. Gaya gets so into character and kudos to her. She has perfect turnout and a perfect smile, only thing missing is really amazing feet. She is defiantly a keeper.
Beautiful stage presence!!! You can tell she loves what she is doing:) she kinda reminds me of myself when she dances:) probably cause we are both 12, have only been an pointe for a year, and always try to put acting into our dances. I did la Esmeralda this year, and I can totally see Gaya doing that variation beautifully someday:)
That's my sister!!! She is so amazing and I look up to her for so many reasons and she inspired me to dance(even though she is only a year older than me)
She is amazing! SOME people don't recognize that at the time she had only been en point for about a year! I've been en pointe for a year and a half, and I just began my first variation. So SOME people need to be nicer!
Such an amazing dancer and for the comments on her feet it could be her shoes. My feet used to seem like terrible feet and I couldn't get onto the boxes well enough because the shoes were all wrong
Its a shame...I come to watch talented dancers and I come on and see stupid immature angry comments on this poor girls youtube link....shes awesome and so talented! :)
@dancdanza that is my sister I am also in dance :) my sister is my role model :D and it is not to jerky for copellia because in copellia it is almost all dolls (no afence)
I think I see her of having more of a Kitri character. But she's young and I know that she must work hard because she's a beautiful dancer and her palette of character will definitely become far more diverse and intricate. :)
@mermaid4713 i dont see how it's jerky but seeing as this is swanilda's act one variation it really shouldnt be jerky they don't know franz is even in love with someone else yet, much less that he's in love with a doll
@Ammie39 I'm sorry about my english let me correct my self a few weeks ago Gaya was on the news here so I saw on tv that Gaya has 2 brothrs and married partns if you want ICANN sand you the link
Really good for 12!! Finally a change in age-appropriate for young dancers! (What a refreshing change that small body damaged by changes in non-age-appropriate). The only slightly negative thing I see is the head movements too jerky for Coppélia. But it's still great!
I just wanna say that Gaya has only 2 brothers and by your videos you're a girl second gauss parents are married I know all that not because I know becouse I'm from Israel and a few weeks ago there wage was spoken in the news I can send you the link if you like
