00:01:40.720 --> 00:01:42.656
Alright.
00:01:42.680 --> 00:01:46.640
Good morning.
00:02:44.400 --> 00:02:49.240
So, Jaeeun, you will be going
just like...
00:03:10.800 --> 00:03:15.136
So, Jaeeun, you do...
00:03:15.160 --> 00:03:16.440
After this arabesque
you go like this.
00:03:27.160 --> 00:03:32.360
Yeah, but take a risk so that
you fall back to Pasza, yeah?
00:03:33.000 --> 00:03:36.760
That\'s...
00:03:37.080 --> 00:03:38.576
We have to make it work
and I think, you know,
00:03:38.600 --> 00:03:41.160
that it should be
almost that you have to...
00:03:41.520 --> 00:03:44.456
If you take it from here, yeah?
00:03:44.480 --> 00:03:46.456
And then we are quite front
00:03:46.480 --> 00:03:48.576
then we can start
maybe a little bit...
00:03:48.600 --> 00:03:50.440
Yeah, so then
he will take you like...
00:03:51.400 --> 00:03:53.040
Jaeeun, you go like this,
00:03:55.800 --> 00:03:57.536
you do immediately
pirouette en dehors, yes?
00:03:57.560 --> 00:04:00.656
So you go like...
You have to go like this.
00:04:00.680 --> 00:04:03.280
And zoom...
00:04:03.840 --> 00:04:05.640
Yeah. Difficult?
00:04:26.240 --> 00:04:30.216
Not bad.
00:04:30.240 --> 00:04:31.736
And now wait till...
00:04:31.760 --> 00:04:35.296
No, Pasza, wait.
She has to be completely down and you will have
the music for this, yeah?
00:04:35.320 --> 00:04:37.440
So... Yeah.
00:04:38.440 --> 00:04:39.976
But wait. I think wait for her.
Yeah?
00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:41.776
So you will be...
00:04:41.800 --> 00:04:42.840
She\'s going down
and go like this.
00:05:23.840 --> 00:05:27.776
Ok.
00:05:27.800 --> 00:05:29.800
Now, Jaeeun, control, yeah?
00:06:08.240 --> 00:06:12.376
Hop. And cross.
00:06:12.400 --> 00:06:14.480
Cross. Okay?
00:06:15.040 --> 00:06:16.816
Yeah!
00:06:16.840 --> 00:06:18.680
Okay. Let\'s try, yeah?
00:06:26.120 --> 00:06:30.080
Go!
00:06:40.520 --> 00:06:44.816
No, no. It should be...
00:06:44.840 --> 00:06:46.856
It should be faster.
00:06:46.880 --> 00:06:49.000
Faster.
00:06:49.360 --> 00:06:50.816
Try to run...
00:06:50.840 --> 00:06:52.296
\"I think we shouldn\'t...
Non stop. Non stop.
00:06:52.320 --> 00:06:55.056
Yeah... [buzzing sounds]
00:06:55.080 --> 00:06:56.656
And then we\'ll see
what happens. Yeah?
00:06:56.680 --> 00:06:58.776
It\'s not romantic.
The music is romantic,
00:06:58.800 --> 00:07:00.656
but we are...
00:07:00.680 --> 00:07:02.120
Something else.
00:07:03.520 --> 00:07:07.000
It\'s better like this
and then you go... Like this...
00:07:10.160 --> 00:07:14.376
The same leg.
The same leg, yeah.
00:07:14.400 --> 00:07:16.800
There. You go, go. Go.
Wah-pah-pah.
00:07:18.600 --> 00:07:22.160
And glue to him, yeah.
00:07:22.440 --> 00:07:24.360
Better, yeah.
00:07:25.760 --> 00:07:27.080
Just the shoulders.
Shoulders down.
00:07:32.000 --> 00:07:36.296
Hop. That\'s it. It\'s....
00:07:36.320 --> 00:07:38.400
But...
00:07:38.600 --> 00:07:40.160
We\'ll be better the other way,
Pasza, yeah?
00:07:40.520 --> 00:07:42.376
This way, yeah.
00:07:42.400 --> 00:07:45.200
Like this you did...
So this way.Just like you did it. Hop. Hop.
00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:49.360
And...
00:08:01.680 --> 00:08:06.016
Like this. And... zoom.
00:08:06.040 --> 00:08:08.840
Yeah?
00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:15.616
There. There.
00:08:15.640 --> 00:08:17.616
There. There.
00:08:17.640 --> 00:08:19.720
Yeah.
00:08:20.440 --> 00:08:23.456
On this, on this arm only, yeah?High arabesque.
00:08:23.480 --> 00:08:25.360
High arabesque. Yeah?
00:08:49.600 --> 00:08:53.576
Okay?
00:08:53.600 --> 00:08:56.760
Jaeeun, you will not
understand this. Potatoes.
00:08:58.520 --> 00:08:59.800
It\'s about potatoes.
00:09:05.800 --> 00:09:10.320
We use this, we were talking...
00:09:10.760 --> 00:09:12.800
so the people who are picking up
the potatoes
00:09:15.600 --> 00:09:18.136
on the field.
00:09:18.160 --> 00:09:19.240
It\'s such a hard work and...
00:09:22.080 --> 00:09:26.136
It also...
00:09:26.160 --> 00:09:27.456
It also gives you
a sort of indication,
00:09:27.480 --> 00:09:29.880
Indication about the character
of movement. Yeah?
00:09:30.080 --> 00:09:34.136
The potato...
00:09:34.160 --> 00:09:36.016
Potato... people are bent over.
00:09:36.040 --> 00:09:38.360
It\'s sort of a grand movement.
it\'s, it\'s heavy.
00:09:38.680 --> 00:09:42.720
When we had...
introduced the communist system,
00:09:43.560 --> 00:09:47.096
which was, you know,
imposed on us,
00:09:47.120 --> 00:09:50.040
and you know, there was
this hard life, yeah?
00:09:51.160 --> 00:09:55.176
It\'s not only because communism,
but after the war
00:09:55.200 --> 00:09:58.000
the life was very hard.
00:09:58.440 --> 00:10:00.176
But still the people
were falling in love.
00:10:00.200 --> 00:10:03.000
In hard times people
are falling in love
00:10:03.600 --> 00:10:07.496
maybe even more
than in good times.
00:10:07.520 --> 00:10:09.696
It\'s also important
00:10:09.720 --> 00:10:11.016
that it sort of
creates the contrast
00:10:11.040 --> 00:10:14.040
with the music, you know.
00:10:14.400 --> 00:10:15.496
The music is very beautiful,
00:10:15.520 --> 00:10:17.640
the music
is basically idealistic.
00:10:25.040 --> 00:10:29.856
But of course we have
no potatoes on stage.
00:10:29.880 --> 00:10:33.256
Yeah, on stage.
00:10:33.280 --> 00:10:35.360
Okay, let\'s do one more time.
00:10:38.560 --> 00:10:38.880
And go.
00:11:35.520 --> 00:11:40.240
Okay,
just we have to stop because...
00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:51.136
Okay, it was better, yeah?
00:11:51.160 --> 00:11:52.520
Let\'s sit, Pasza.
You okay, Pasza?
00:12:00.280 --> 00:12:04.736
You know, it looks a bit like...
00:12:04.760 --> 00:12:07.280
Maybe I\'m not... Yeah, just up.
Jaeeun, yeah?
00:12:08.240 --> 00:12:11.520
Hop! That\'s good, very good.
Very good, yeah.
00:12:12.160 --> 00:12:15.120
Yeah.
00:12:21.240 --> 00:12:25.376
Hop. Down and...
00:12:25.400 --> 00:12:27.680
It should be like, like...
00:22:02.160 --> 00:22:06.736
Okay, guys.
Everyone, you know.
00:22:06.760 --> 00:22:09.160
Tomek, everyone. Yeah?
00:22:09.880 --> 00:22:12.320
Guys.
00:22:13.880 --> 00:22:15.056
Don\'t move before \"one\".
00:22:15.080 --> 00:22:16.896
When you hear me screaming...
I\'m not inventing.
00:22:16.920 --> 00:22:20.536
Yeah, you move before \"one\".
00:22:20.560 --> 00:22:22.456
It\'s one, two, three.
Don\'t prepare.
00:22:22.480 --> 00:22:25.456
Some of you, you think
that you move on \"one\"
00:22:25.480 --> 00:22:27.856
because you prepare
the arm on \"four\"
00:22:27.880 --> 00:22:31.096
and you start to move on \"one\",
00:22:31.120 --> 00:22:32.576
but I see this arm on \"four\".
00:22:32.600 --> 00:22:35.160
So really it looks good,
00:22:35.360 --> 00:22:37.200
but it has to be
on the same beat. Yeah?
00:23:37.600 --> 00:23:41.880
Together, together.
00:23:48.320 --> 00:23:52.320
Yeah.
00:24:43.000 --> 00:24:47.096
You could...
00:24:47.120 --> 00:24:50.720
When you do with Yuka,
you could do more like this. And then you know...
So can I just see this like...
00:24:52.160 --> 00:24:53.320
The last one, yeah?
00:24:56.440 --> 00:24:58.016
So you go like this.
00:24:58.040 --> 00:24:59.656
It will be better. Better.
00:24:59.680 --> 00:25:01.560
Good, guys.
00:34:05.880 --> 00:34:10.240
Don\'t go in one line.
00:34:46.480 --> 00:34:50.456
Louder.
00:34:50.480 --> 00:34:51.640
One, two!
00:35:15.160 --> 00:35:19.160
Demeter!
00:35:30.040 --> 00:35:35.160
I don\'t understand Demeter.
Why he still does mistakes.
00:35:46.320 --> 00:35:50.760
One, two, three, four. One!
00:35:55.440 --> 00:35:59.400
One!
00:36:05.480 --> 00:36:10.000
One, two, three, four. One, two.
00:36:13.680 --> 00:36:18.040
Three times. Four, four.
00:37:20.760 --> 00:37:25.376
Quiet walk.
You have time, look.
00:37:25.400 --> 00:37:27.640
Good.
00:37:28.160 --> 00:37:29.040
You are on the lines.
00:37:39.120 --> 00:37:43.256
One, two, three.
00:37:43.280 --> 00:37:44.736
Okay, thank you.
00:37:44.760 --> 00:37:46.560
Not bad, guys.
Considering it\'s Tuesday.
00:37:50.600 --> 00:37:54.816
No, it\'s this moment.
00:37:54.840 --> 00:37:56.216
We are...
They make on four or one?
00:37:56.240 --> 00:37:59.040
Four, yeah?
00:38:00.280 --> 00:38:02.360
So you... You have
to be decisive, yeah?
00:38:02.640 --> 00:38:05.376
This is important.
It\'s a simple...
00:38:05.400 --> 00:38:07.296
This arm is what I always say,
00:38:07.320 --> 00:38:09.416
in every single ballet, yeah?
00:38:09.440 --> 00:38:11.456
The arms we see the most, yeah?
00:38:11.480 --> 00:38:13.280
Okay, let\'s start.
00:38:15.160 --> 00:38:19.616
Guide your arms together, guys.
00:38:19.640 --> 00:38:21.320
It\'s a simple thing.
You have to see.
00:38:52.000 --> 00:38:56.096
Okay, stop.
00:38:56.120 --> 00:38:57.616
Daria.
00:38:57.640 --> 00:38:59.016
Please, concentrate!
00:38:59.040 --> 00:39:02.376
I don\'t want to stop on the
thing we\'ve worked already. Yeah?
So please, one more time.
00:39:02.400 --> 00:39:04.520
Full concentration.
00:39:24.640 --> 00:39:28.976
There. And then you go.
00:39:29.000 --> 00:39:31.016
And...
00:39:31.040 --> 00:39:32.680
That looks better a bit, yeah?
00:39:33.800 --> 00:39:35.880
Yeah. Okay? Okay.
00:39:36.720 --> 00:39:39.160
Guys, we\'re going
to the last movement, okay?
00:39:39.480 --> 00:39:42.080
Three, four,
one, two, three, four.
00:39:53.320 --> 00:39:57.600
Marta, Marta, Marta.
00:40:30.640 --> 00:40:35.296
Yuka, come.
We will be a movie star.
00:40:35.320 --> 00:40:38.896
I think it has to be almost
like...
00:40:38.920 --> 00:40:41.896
you know,
when you\'re getting up...
00:40:41.920 --> 00:40:44.056
It has to be a little bit...
00:40:44.080 --> 00:40:46.216
Like...
You know, almost like...
00:40:46.240 --> 00:40:47.856
It\'s a bit heavier.
More difficult to get up, yeah?
00:40:47.880 --> 00:40:50.816
So like aesthetically
it\'s right,
00:40:50.840 --> 00:40:53.616
but it could be a little bit...
00:40:53.640 --> 00:40:55.600
Sorry for this.
00:40:56.000 --> 00:40:57.816
So you can go, you know,
like this, from here.
00:40:57.840 --> 00:41:00.536
You go almost like this.
00:41:00.560 --> 00:41:02.360
I can\'t get up. You know.
00:41:04.720 --> 00:41:07.000
-Okay.
-Okay.
00:41:07.880 --> 00:41:09.760
That\'s it, yeah.
00:41:10.160 --> 00:41:11.896
Very small. Very, very small.
00:41:11.920 --> 00:41:14.720
Very small thing.
00:41:15.640 --> 00:41:17.720
Good.
00:41:18.320 --> 00:41:19.920
Second movement.
00:41:24.800 --> 00:41:29.216
And one, two, three, four.
00:41:29.240 --> 00:41:32.736
Two, two, three, four.
00:41:32.760 --> 00:41:35.016
Three, two, three, four.
00:41:35.040 --> 00:41:37.376
Four, two, three, four. Yeah.
00:41:37.400 --> 00:41:39.800
Four before.
One, two, three, four.
00:41:40.080 --> 00:41:44.200
One, two, three, four,
two, two, three, four,
00:41:44.760 --> 00:41:49.080
-Stop.
-Three...
00:41:50.400 --> 00:41:54.616
This is good.
This is good, yeah?
00:41:54.640 --> 00:41:56.640
You know, its...
00:41:57.000 --> 00:42:00.496
We have to be
a little bit more... you know? It\'s from...
00:42:00.520 --> 00:42:01.776
This part, this part,
when we go.
00:42:01.800 --> 00:42:03.776
It should be a little
bit more there, yeah?
00:42:03.800 --> 00:42:05.576
So it\'s...
We are twisted like this.
00:42:05.600 --> 00:42:08.696
Yeah, like this.
But the body is like this.
00:42:08.720 --> 00:42:11.000
Yeah?
00:42:11.720 --> 00:42:13.160
Thank you.
00:42:13.400 --> 00:42:14.760
Thank you.
00:42:16.800 --> 00:42:20.856
Like this.
00:42:20.880 --> 00:42:22.656
Yeah?
00:42:22.680 --> 00:42:24.040
Yeah. That\'s good, yeah.
