I’ve been thinking a lot about the idea that “no one cares about ballet or opera anymore.” For those of us who live inside these art forms, that couldn’t feel further from the truth. Every day I walk into a studio where dancers are pushing their bodies past exhaustion in pursuit of something beautiful. I rehearse alongside musicians, singers, stage crews, costume designers, and choreographers who dedicate their lives to telling stories. These art forms have existed for hundreds of years because generation after generation continues to find meaning in them. They evolve, they change, and they continue to move people in ways that are hard to put into words. If you’ve ever sat in a theater and felt your heart race as the music swells or watched a dancer fly across the stage and felt something shift inside you—then you know people still care. I’m grateful every day to be part of this art form. 🩰 #ballet #ballerina #opera #dance #dancer
@nycballet Principal Dancer @tilerpeck performs “Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy” from George Balanchine’s “The Nutcracker,” accompanied by music director @andrew.litton. #Colbert #TheNutcracker
1) We tell each other “you have such good feet” and compare our corns with one another 2) We hang out in a side split like it’s totally normal while having a conversation 3) Have a weekly corn appointment with your podiatrist like it’s no big deal 4) Carry tools to roll out our tight calves and thighs that might look questionable (and a little naughty lol) to everyone else 5) Sew pointe shoes on a plane like you’re casually reading a book #ballerina #ballet #dance #dancerthings #dancer 📸 @erinbaiano
@tilerpeck is “walking” on sunshine. ☀️ #Colbert @nycballet
SELF spent the afternoon with @nycballet principal dancer @tilerpeck, and we can’t decide what we want to see more: Her doing 32 fouettés or her tap routine in Turn It Out with Tiler Peck and Friends 🩰
What a whirlwind 2 days in Santa Barbara! I’m so honored to have curated the Jerome Robbins Festival and get to be the first woman ever to perform a ballet that was choreographed by Jerry originally for Misha Baryshnikov! It felt so good to step into that ballet again as each time I find something new within it. Thank you @jeanpierrefrohlich for overseeing all of the ballets and letting us experience them together! As per usual, Nyla had a fantastic first Jerome Robbins Festival 😂 #ballet #ballerina #performance #jeromerobbins #festival

Dances at a Gathering 💕 The beauty of this pas deux is simplicity. I like to think of this pas as the calm within the storm. There has been so much dancing throughout the ballet, and for me, this is the first time where it feels like time sort of stops: it’s just two people listening to the glorious music, sharing a moment together, and letting me show yet another shade of pink in my dancing. Enjoy this little clip 😊 📸 Erin Baiano #performance #dance #ballet #ballerina #liveperformance
