Top 13 Male Ballet Dancers Of This Generation

Recently, Timothy Chalomet made some remarks about opera and ballet which I am sure he probably now regrets, considering the furore they created.  Although we feature dance quite a lot on Kuriositas, it has been a while since we featured either opera or ballet.  That’s a little remiss, so here is a very cool video of 13 of the very best male ballet dancers – and the list is contemporary rather than historic (just to show the art form is still well and truly alive).  The video was created by Ballet Posted.

I think, for me, the standouts are Kangwon Lee, who dances with such a joie de vivre it is almost impossible not to smile with him.  Then there is Antonio Caslhino whose moves are something to behold. I suppose my favorite, though, has to be Takumi Miyake – just a sublime dance if ever there was one.  Which will be your choice? Watch the video below and decide!
