Childhood

In fact, the hero of this article is not Miguel(the dancer took himself this pseudonym when he came to show business). His real name is Sergey Shesteperov. The future choreographer was born in Khimki in 1982. Colorful appearance he got from his father - the Cuban Miguel Mass. Well, the education of the boy was engaged in a grandmother (teacher of literature and Russian) and mother (engineer-electromechanics).

The parents of the dancer Miguel are very tragicdestiny. In the 80 years, Sergei's father was forced to go back to Cuba. Mother could not follow him. With the father, the choreographer was able to meet already significantly matured - in 33 years. Miguel Massa came to Russia and spent a month with Sergei and his mother.

Learning

Shesteperov was carried away by the art of dance in the earlychildhood. It all started when, in four years, the boy saw a scene from the ballet "Giselle", broadcast on TV. Seryozha was so inspired that he immediately began staging his play "Swan Lake". The benefit of the boy was held in the circle of relatives and neighbors, whom he demonstrated in a pair with his friend Masha four-act.

The first two classes, Sergei studied inZelenogradskaya school. Then the future dancer was expelled from there. The case was as follows: all the classmates Shesteperov were against a black guy studying English. The next day the boy came to school with an October badge attached to the fifth point. Immediately followed the proceedings, and a week later, my mother Sergei was already looking for him a new school. This was the educational non-governmental institution - the School "Harmony".

For three years (from the fifth to the eighth grade)Shesteperov attended the school of choreography for children "Fuete". The school dancer graduated from the external school. But he continued his polishing skills at the Choreography School, which was located at the Bolshoi Theater. There, the young man received an excellent education and mastered classical dances well.

At the age of seventeen he was invited to participate in the new show "Metro".

For Miguel the play was the beginning of a career as an artist of this genre.

Then the young man was invited to solo inRussian version of the ballet "Notre Dame de Paris", staged on the novel of the same name by Victor Hugo. Further, Shesteperov got into the Russian version of the musical "Romeo and Juliet". He still considers work in this project as one of the most significant stages in the formation of his own career.

Rather paradoxical, but the development of the dancer asThe creative personality was promoted not by participation in "Romeo and Juliet", but, on the contrary, withdrawal from the musical. Miguel was kicked out, because he was late for one of the rehearsals. According to the young man, if it did not happen, then he remained an artist exclusively within musicals.

Maidan's

This grandiose project has become a new stage in thethe development of Miguel's creative work. The young man was involved in the dance project as the main choreographer, jury member, producer and co-author. "Maidan's" started in 2011 on the Ukrainian channel "Inter". Well, the action itself was filmed on the "Independence Square" in the center of Kiev.

Earlier in the performances of Shesteperov took partjust a couple dozen people. Now he hired up to five hundred dancers in every city that was selected for the project. Plus, the training was conducted in a short time (about three days) and had to rehearse for eight hours daily.
