Ballet Dynasties

In previous centuries it was
normal for stage artists to come
from theatrical families and,
therefore, for a dancer to be the
son or brother of another dancer.
Nowadays this is considered an
oddity, an unforeseeable
vocational coincidence. Yet there
are quite a few such cases in the
dance world. Let us go quickly
around the world and, without
presuming to compile a complete
list, let’s have fun picking out
some of the better-known dancers
who were born into dancing
families. Their names include
Mathieu Ganio, Zenaida
Yanowsky, Alessio Carbone,
Lorna Feijóo, Daniil Simkin...
