More than 15 million people have watched his joyful leaps and pirouettes, undeterred by the rain and coarse surface. The video caught the eye of the American Ballet Theatre, which gave him a scholarship and arranged Internet access for virtual training this summer. Next year, he will train in the United States on a scholarship from Ballet Beyond Borders. 據(jù)《華盛頓郵報(bào)》報(bào)道,Anthony 的舞蹈引起了美國(guó)芭蕾舞劇院的關(guān)注,院方為他提供了一筆獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金,并安排他在今年夏天參與在線的訓(xùn)練課程,而明年,他將前往美國(guó)接受訓(xùn)練。 BENSON IBEABUCHI /視覺中國(guó) 在面對(duì)媒體采訪時(shí),Anthony 也表露了自己的激動(dòng)之情: “When my friends see me dancing, they feel like, ‘what is this boy doing, is he doing a foreign dance?’Now I have won a grand prize to go to the US... I will be in the plane and this is what I am waiting for, and ballet has done it for me.” “當(dāng)我的朋友看到我跳舞時(shí),他們會(huì)想:‘這個(gè)男孩在干什么呢,是在跳一種外國(guó)舞蹈嗎?’現(xiàn)在我獲得了去美國(guó)的一個(gè)大獎(jiǎng)……我會(huì)坐上飛機(jī),這是我一直在期待的事情,而芭蕾讓我做到了。” Anthony 所在的公益舞蹈學(xué)校Leap of Dance Academy也獲得了多筆捐款資助。 BENSON IBEABUCHI /視覺中國(guó) 舞蹈學(xué)校的創(chuàng)辦者Daniel Ajala Owoseni 表示,會(huì)用這筆錢在尼日利亞推廣芭蕾。 圖源:AFP視頻 It has also led to a flood of donations to the Leap of Dance Academy in Nigeria where Anthony currently trains. Founder Daniel Ajala Owoseni said he will use the funds to promote ballet in Nigeria. “I saw the need to bring a form of art that shows discipline, dedication and commitment. Students who are able to learn all of these can … transfer (them) into other spheres of their lives.” “我看到了推廣這種體現(xiàn)自律、奉獻(xiàn)與投入的藝術(shù)的必要性。學(xué)習(xí)這些學(xué)生們能把這些品質(zhì)帶進(jìn)生活的方方面面。” 有夢(mèng)真好!希望這些孩子們能堅(jiān)持夢(mèng)想,站在更高的舞臺(tái)! 綜合來源:Evening Standard The Washington Post |
