However, the challenges of ballet and the endless opportunities for improvement captivated me. The pursuit of perfection, even though it remains elusive, continues to fascinate me to this day.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_57385\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-57385\" style=\"width: 682px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-57385\" src=\"https:\/\/www.danceforyou-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Facetune_28-01-2022-14-21-49-Kopie-682x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.danceforyou-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Facetune_28-01-2022-14-21-49-Kopie-682x1024.jpeg 682w, https:\/\/www.danceforyou-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Facetune_28-01-2022-14-21-49-Kopie-200x300.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/www.danceforyou-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Facetune_28-01-2022-14-21-49-Kopie-768x1152.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.danceforyou-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Facetune_28-01-2022-14-21-49-Kopie-300x450.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.danceforyou-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Facetune_28-01-2022-14-21-49-Kopie-600x900.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.danceforyou-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Facetune_28-01-2022-14-21-49-Kopie.jpeg 853w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 682px) 100vw, 682px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-57385\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u00a9 Julia Mikheeva<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><em>What were the highlights of your training as a dancer?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>As I said before, during my time in Brazil, I faced the challenge of starting ballet at a later age. My first ballet teacher told me that if I wanted to pursue a professional career, I would need to compress nine years of training into just three. This demanding schedule meant intense training from Monday to Monday, participating in numerous competitions, and meeting exceptional individuals who enriched my journey. Later, when I joined the Staatliche Balletschule Berlin, my focus shifted. While I continued to grow as a dancer, my time there primarily served to shape me as an individual. It involved navigating life away from my family in a foreign country, adapting to a new language, culture, and more.<\/p>\n<p><em>Why did you want to dance in Russia as a Brazilian?<\/em><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_57386\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-57386\" style=\"width: 907px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-57386\" src=\"https:\/\/www.danceforyou-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG_2506-Kopie.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"907\" height=\"642\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.danceforyou-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG_2506-Kopie.jpg 907w, https:\/\/www.danceforyou-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG_2506-Kopie-300x212.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.danceforyou-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG_2506-Kopie-768x544.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.danceforyou-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG_2506-Kopie-600x425.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 907px) 100vw, 907px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-57386\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Victor Caixeta \u00a9 Nina Tooli<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div class=\"ihc-locker-wrap\"><div  class='ihc_locker_2'><div class='lock_content'><p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.danceforyou-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Imagine_website_Digital_Exklusiv.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Weiterlesen mit Digital+<\/h2>\n<p>Alle Formate in einem ABO.<br \/>\nBequem auf Ihrem mobilen Endger\u00e4t Ihrer Wahl.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Alle Artikel online lesen<\/li>\n<li>Zugang zum ePaper<\/li>\n<li>Zugang zum Online-Archiv von Dance for You<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Jetzt digital freischalten!<\/h4>\n<\/div><div class='lock_buttons'>\n  <!-- Login Form - Start -->\n  <div class=\"ihc-login-form-wrap ihc-login-template-11\">\n      <form method=\"post\" id=\"ihc_login_form\">\n          <input type=\"hidden\" name=\"ihcaction\" value=\"login\" \/>\n          <input type=\"hidden\" name=\"ihc_login_nonce\" value=\"37a7331602\" \/>\n\n          \n                    <!-- Username field -->\n          <div class=\"impu-form-line-fr\">\n              <i class=\"fa-ihc fa-username-ihc\"><\/i>\n              <input type=\"text\" value=\"\" name=\"log\" id=\"iump_login_username\" placeholder=\"Username\"\/>\n          <\/div>\n          <!-- End of username field -->\n          \n                    <!-- Password field -->\n          <div class=\"impu-form-line-fr\">\n              <i class=\"fa-ihc fa-pass-ihc\"><\/i>\n              <input type=\"password\" value=\"\" name=\"pwd\" id=\"iump_login_password\" placeholder=\"Password\"\/>\n              <span  class=\"ihc-hide-login-pw hide-if-no-js\" data-toggle=\"0\" aria-label=\"Show password\">\n              <span class=\"dashicons dashicons-visibility\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span>\n                <\/span>\n          <\/div>\n          <!-- End of Password field -->\n          \n          \n          <!-- Remember me checkbox -->\n                    <div class=\"impu-remember-wrapper\">\n              <input type=\"checkbox\" value=\"forever\" name=\"rememberme\" class=\"impu-form-input-remember\" \/>\n              <span class=\"impu-form-label-remember\">Remember Me<\/span>\n          <\/div>\n                    <!-- End of remember me --->\n\n          <!-- Additional links -->\n                        <div class=\"impu-form-links-pass\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.danceforyou-magazine.com\/en\/lost-password\/\">Lost your password?<\/a><\/div>\n                    <!-- End of Aditional links -->\n\n          <div class=\"ihc-clear\"><\/div>\n\n          <!-- captcha -->\n                    <!-- end of captcha -->\n\n          <!-- Submit bttn -->\n                        <div class=\"impu-form-line-fr impu-form-submit\">\n                  <input type=\"submit\" value=\"Log In\" name=\"Submit\"  class=\"button button-primary button-large\"\/>\n              <\/div>\n                    <!-- End of Submit bttn -->\n\n          <!-- Social -->\n                    <!-- End of Social -->\n\n          <!-- Additional links -->\n                        <div class=\"impu-form-links\">\n                <div class=\"impu-form-links-reg\">Don&#039;t have an account?
