Neverdancedjustamum Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 One PdL winner appears to be joining the RB: https://www.prixdelausanne.org/schools-companies2024/ Glad to see two are joining the ABT Studio Co. Seems to be a very exciting and vibrant company for young dancers. I often see Instagram stories and YouTube videos posted by the dancers and they appear very happy and settled and a good number go on to ABT. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to see them live again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinMM Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 (edited) I see Paloma has gone to ABT who was one of the few who really stood out in February. I know splitting hairs here as all obviously have a good standard but that little bit extra!! Annoyingly the picture above this info is of 2023 winners not this years!

There’s just a vibrancy and energy to them that’s very obvious in their performances and the little behind the scenes videos some of the dancers post. They all seem very strong in contemporary pieces too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinMM Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 Looks like I did pick up on Airi Kobayashi and Martinho Lima Santos back in February as well as Paloma. I see the French dancer I thought might be a fit for the RB has gone to the Swedish Ballet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinMM Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 (edited) Actually the photo above Prix de Lausanne announcement of where winners are going is of 2024 competitors my mistake ..thought I’d recognised a 2023 dancer and jumped to conclusions. Only mentioning here because of above comment but otherwise there’s a Prix thread to discuss anything further. Edited April 12 by LinMM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
