Check out my latest YouTube video on the great Julio Bocca. He burst upon the dance scene in the early 1980s after winning a prestigious ballet competition. American Ballet Theatre Artistic Director Mikhail Baryshnikov hired Julio as a Principal Dancer at the remarkably young age of 19. For the next two decades, Julio wowed crowds globally with his preeminent athleticism and technique, combined with rare dramatic action. He became an icon in his native Argentina, where his performances filled massive football stadiums. He became not only one of the best dancers of his generation, but of all time. What made Julio a ballet rock star? In this video, I break down his Don Quixote variations, shedding light on this question. Check it out!
