32 ballet dancers from 14 countries dance in support of Covid 19 fundraising

Find some grace & inspiration in an hour of ballet bliss.

American Ballet Theatre's Misty Copeland and her former colleague Joseph Phillips have launched a Swans for Relief fundraiser. 32 ballet dancers from 14 countries filmed themselves performing Mikhail Fokine's Le Cygne (often referred to as "The Dying Swan") from wherever they're isolating right now. The resulting film strings their movements together one after the other.

Viewers are encouraged to donate to a Go Fund Me campaign that will distribute money to relief funds at the participating dancers' companies and other arts- or dance-based relief funds.
