An oddity video: Angelo Greco in pointe shoes, 'giving pointe class' to Isabella Walsh ( I haven't heard yet where she may be going to, or if she has figured out the next step in her career):

Hi Terez - we discussed this somewhere or other on the forum, and let's just say that most people think she will end up in Berlin with Daniil Simkin (who she just danced with in Moscow, btw). But she's going to spend a season guesting with Norwegian Ballet. If it goes well, she may decide to guest there for some time. Who knows?
