Maya Plisetskaya is a ballerina, choreographer, and actress known all over the world. She is famous for her technique and plasticity, amazing emotionality in dance. And also an incredible character, perseverance, efficiency and an adequate attitude towards oneself and one's strengths. Being a ballerina is not only physically difficult: exhausting workouts, pain, early retirement. These are intrigues, envy, constant control, restrictions, and sometimes poverty — in order to continue to create and improve in such conditions, you need to have a very strong character. That's exactly what Maya had. Neither the war, nor the separation from her mother, nor political conflicts broke her down or turned her away from her chosen path. She became one of the most famous ballerinas in the world. Her performances inspired thousands of girls to go to ballet and believe in themselves.
