How Ninette de Valois took the dance to Turkey

[tomuchtallent]

Living in Turkey i started to look at the history of Tukish Ballet.

 

There is a very nice short clip of how Ninette de Valois started ballet here.

 

I never realized how many Turkish students that have trained at the RB!I have met 1 of her students who she took to the RB and she teaches here in Antalya, and there is more i know of in Antayla including the 1st and only twins,i think, that trained at the RB.
