Dancers, many dancers today can do so much technically. You can give them steps that are complicated, then more complicated, pyrotechnical - and they can execute these steps to perfection. But to do simple steps with a pure classical line, that is truly difficult.
You cannot dance an arabesque in 'Swan Lake' and 'Nutcracker' the same way.
