Dances without rules "is a response to" Dancing with the Stars ", or are there any foreign analogues of the project?
No, this is not a "response," as far as I know, our project does not have a foreign analogue either. Of course, there are dance shows on other channels, and some of them have been copied from Western programs, but it's "Dance without rules" that TNT has no analogues on television.
Castings of the show are mostly held in large cities. Is there any chance for young people from the provinces to participate in the show?
Participants from the province can safely come to major cities, where castings are held. By the way, so did so many guys who came to the casting in the same Kiev. And some even went to Moscow to participate in the final stages - I now, unfortunately, do not remember who.
From the applicants to participate in the show requires some special dance education?
No, it's "Dancing without rules," and special education is not necessary here. If you are self-taught, and you can prove that you are better than others, then go ahead! The road is open to all. The main thing is not to be afraid, not to be embarrassed, but to try your strength. There were a lot of professional dancers in the show, who danced very cool, but very improvised and badly got used to the given theme and role. And because of this merged. Just a good dance - it's not all that is required to win the show.
Are there any restrictions? For example, in styles? Can a ballerina take part?
There are absolutely no restrictions. The project was also attended by dancers in the style of "Latin", balconies, R'n'B, breakdance, modern. And even, in my opinion, a step. By the way, the ballet was also. True, these guys did not go beyond the fourth round and did not reach Moscow. But not because they were ballet dancers.
What is the main thing for a pass to the next round? Do you like the jury or somehow surprise?
You have to like the jury. And to please the jury - you need to surprise them. Like this.
People coming to qualifying rounds, go for fame or money? What is the approximate portrait of the project participant?
Many are for the sake of interest, some are for money. There are also those who want to light up in the TV, demonstrate their dancing coolness and feel the glory. Everyone has different motivation, but the main thing is that it exists. There were those who came just to go. A very small percentage of such participants went further - everyone was stuck in the initial stages. Without interest and motivation, the dancer has no goal - he does not show everything he is capable of.
Compositions for dancers were invented by the jury in advance or impromptu?
The theme of the jury comes up in advance. But the music to the guys is absolutely unfamiliar, and they have to dance "from the sheet". We sometimes do not know which composition we can deliver.
Which dancers are especially memorable?
Honestly, there were a lot of talented guys, I now do not even remember all of them. Masha Kozlova danced very well. Impressed by Roma Zakharov of Peter, the trio "Rocket", Vanya Protsenko from Voronezh. The most difficult thing for the jury was that after each tour, one of them had to be weeded out, and they were all very good. We have to choose the best of the best, which is incredibly difficult.
During the filming of the program, did the jury wish to start dancing with the participants?
Of course. Timur Rodriguez and I started dancing many times and lit along with the show participants. And experienced with the guys. I even cried a few times when they merged not so much that the favorites, but those participants who personally liked me very much. There was a couple, a boy with a girl, they really wanted to win, they had that same outrageous motivation, but they lost by the end of the program. There was a full set of emotions. In general, the team at the end of filming, we are very united.
What does the winner of the show get in addition to a million rubles?
First, new friends, then glory and, of course, the opportunity to appear in a music video to be shown on the TNT channel.
What does the phrase "life in motion" mean to you?
"Life in motion" is about me. I do not sit still for a minute and can not do anything for a long time. I like to travel, I like working in different programs with different people. I need as much diversity in life as possible.
Do you think that people are active, public people burn out very quickly?
It happens. The main thing is to be able to abstract yourself from the existing stress in time and take a break for rest. If you will be on the move all the time, in the hangout, all the time working - you can burn out quickly enough. You need to be able to find places and people with whom you are calm and comfortable in communication, and next to which you can gain energy for the next breakthrough.
Do you have a secret of good mood? Is there an action or phrase that helps to relax in time?
First, it's a dream. When you get enough sleep - you immediately get up. Secondly, we all work on solar batteries, and our internal state always improves when the sun looks out. In all other cases, you just need to think, and if you're sad - you can even give it a little. To sink, sit at home. This kind of reboot, when you realize that you need to start over. If you are completely sad, you need to turn around, look around and see that the state in which you are - is still far from the worst.
Are you more tactful in achieving your interests or do you prefer to go ahead?
I think that both ways can be good for achieving the goal. It is necessary and tactically think over their actions, and sometimes use pressure and self-confidence. This is always welcome.
Is it easier for a woman to "go around complex turns" on her way?
It seems to me, it does not matter. Both men and women have their own difficulties, they are just different. A woman is sometimes not so seriously treated as a man, but at the same time a woman can bypass her sharp edges with the help of her charm, smile and female wisdom. And this is no longer given to a man.
Do you plan your day or give yourself up to the will of circumstances?
I plan tomorrow from tomorrow night, because if I do not do it - I become diffused, forgetful and I can "fly in the clouds" a little. If I write down everything to myself and distribute it clearly in time, then in a day I manage to do much more.
Do you have favorite places where you are happy to spend time?
In Moscow this, of course, is my home. Probably the quietest place where I can stay with myself, think about everything, take a breath. In the rest - I have a favorite city. This is London, where I can come alone, with friends, with a young man - it does not matter. And it does not matter for how long - a day, a week or a month. In London, I rest my soul and feel very comfortable.
Are there days when you are completely closed from the outside world?
Yes, there are. I can not say that often, but sometimes it happens. I deliberately hide from the world, close at home, buy a lot of all goodies, old and new films, serials and sit at the TV with food.
Can you imagine your life without moving on a car?
Now no, I can not imagine. Earlier, when I went by subway, I had no idea how you could drive a car. It seemed to me that it was very long, dreary, dangerous and terrible. And now the car is my second home, where I rest, adjust myself to the right mood, including the right music. In addition, it is also an office where, standing in traffic jams, I decide all my affairs. Plus for me it is also a fast enough way to travel.
Do you find time to practice fitness?
Honestly, in the last three months there have been catastrophically no time for fitness, which makes me very depressed and depressed. Fitness, sports are very important in my life, and if I drop these three months, then I exercise regularly, four times a week, exactly.
Do you like to dance, and how do you feel in the framework of the project "Dancing Without Rules" on the channel TNT?
I like dancing very much, but unfortunately I do not dance professionally, although in my childhood I even did choreography. And in "Dance without rules" I feel very comfortable, I like to watch really interesting guys who dance very well.
What procedures or activities can you spend a lot of time on?
I do not like to spend a lot of time on something, because I always feel sorry for this time and I always miss it. Some part of it I spend on salons, on sports again and on dialogue with friends. For friends, by the way, I always have time.
Tell us about yourself as a fashion designer. Do you find your personal beliefs in your clothes?
Certainly. If you come to show my collection, you can pay attention that all things reflect my tastes and desires. In the end, I create things that I would first like, and which I would be happy to carry.
Do your friends and relatives sustain your rhythm of life?
My parents complain and are upset, because I do not have enough time to see them, although we live close enough. And even on the phone you can not communicate with us every day. But all the same, I try to give maximum attention to family, friends and relatives.
Do you think, maybe this metropolis sets its rhythm to people who are trying to achieve something?
I think that everyone is asking himself the rhythm, regardless of the city in which he lives and what he does. There are active people who invent things to themselves and load themselves by one hundred percent. And there are those who live in Moscow and work monotonously in the office day after day, do not hurry anywhere and do not hurry anywhere. Each person chooses his own rhythm. And the metropolis has nothing to do with it.
