If you are taking about classical ballet, Svetlana Zakharova is considered to be one of the best ballet dancers in the world. She is 35, lives in Russia with her family (young daughter and husband) and is a principal dancer for the Bolshoi Ballet. Many people consider the Bolshoi Ballet to be the second best in the world, only to Mariinsky Ballet, which Svetlana danced for many years in the late 1900's. Svetlana is widely acclaimed for her amazing flexibility, and hyper-extended legs. If you watched the 2014 Sochi Olympics, you can see her dance in the opening ceremony of the games.
How are jazz and modern dance different?
Jazz can be any kind of upbeat series of movements. This might sound just like contemporary (modern) dancing but actually, try doing the 1970's Charleston (which is classified as jazz dance) to Like a G6! Modern dances are used with more modern songs and movements. The way modern dance is danced changes depending on the time. Does this make sense? In other words, in the 1920s the Charleston was considered a modern dance. Now that doesn't mean that doing a dance to Like a G6 wouldn't be jazz. It could be a variety of dance subjects. It really just depends on which type of dance best suits the movements and song.
