# Ferocious Ballet Choreography Amalia Bennett Creates a New Ballet Vocabulary By Wesley Grant | Published 2011-03-29 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amalia-bennett References: [dimosthenisgrivas.gr](http://www.dimosthenisgrivas.gr/photos.php?PRJ_Code=20104220190904747047177033233084lX0422K79ssU8fp468) The once formalized serene ballet performance has now gone wild because of Amalia Bennett. She takes the highly technical form of dance and brings a more ferocious art to the ballet world. In the performance, each ballerina is found in their own stupor while Amalia Bennett’s choreography takes them from a gradual and beautiful ballet performance to a sudden outlandish one. Incorporating slave bondage into the ballet act with ballerinas dragged on the floor by a piece of cotton string, this is seriously a [remarkable innovation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multimedia-art-installation) regarding the way ballet is traditionally portrayed. The video is titled ‘Eqvus Performance’ and Amalia Bennett uses the backdrop of the cowboys riding the horses to seemingly affect the ballerina's [theatrical display](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/avantgarde-theatrical-experience). I’m totally in love with the Amalia Bennett concept, the choreography and the poised style of each of the ballerinas. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.6/10 - Popularity: 18% | Activity: 22% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Live Arts](https://www.trendhunter.com/livearts) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Wild Ballet Performance:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore alternative and unconventional movements in ballet to create a more intense and expressive performance. - **Incorporating Bondage in Ballet:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Challenge traditional expectations by infusing bondage elements into ballet performances to create provocative and thought-provoking experiences. - **Cowboy-inspired Ballet Choreography:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Merge ballet with unexpected themes like cowboys to create unique and visually captivating performances. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Performing Arts:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Drive experimentation and push boundaries in ballet to attract new audiences and diversify the performing arts industry. - **Entertainment:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Collaborate with choreographers and dancers to develop boundary-pushing ballet performances that entertain and challenge societal norms. - **Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore collaborations between ballet and fashion designers to create visually stunning and conceptually innovative performances. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Ballet-Inspired Altheticwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/en-pointe-collection.md) - [Whimsical Feminine Runway Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wild-rose-sparrow.md) - [Balletcore Collaborative Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gelkinetic-fluent-1.md) - [Endurance Tap Dance Performances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/endurance-tap-dance.md) - [Ballet-Inspired Split-Toe Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-rift-black-swan.md) - [Nutrient-Dense Protein Ingredients](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/balletic-nova.md) - [Gracefully Dynamic Skyscrapers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bond-tower.md) - [Randomness-Inspired Designer Footwear Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beauty-in-chaos.md) - [Performance Art Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bio-pop.md)
