Impressive!
I thought that the entire idea of dancing is for the audience to see the moves, but with Beriozka things are a little bit different. In this traditional Russian dance, performers appear to be floating across the stage, and it is nothing short of impressive. Their secret technique is called the floating step and in a second you are going to have a hard time trusting your eyes! – Viral Mirror

I know the trick
Roller skates?
It would require some strong ankles to pull that off.
Bad_Brad, Not mine! 😀
According to the interwebs, they are on their tip-toes like ballerinas.
MJA, that is exactly what I thought. That is really the only way so not to rustle the skirts.
Beautiful. Thanks.
Raise your hands, who else did this bring Logan’s Run
to mind?
Amazing and lovely.
Lovely!
Big magnets underneath the stage.
Yup, that’s the ticket!

Ten sec vid. By their ages looks like they are just starting out. I don’t know how anyone could stand on their tippy toes for a whole performance.
And not a twerk in the whole dance.
Just Beautiful, that’s how the Nuns use to walk down the aisles an Hallways when I was in first grade, I though they didn’t have feet.
I figured they were standing on ROOMBA Robotic Vacuum cleaners that were programed for their dance routine!
Russian women are awesome. Love mine!
There was a gorgeous nurse in the hospital I was at that just walked naturally like that. No head bobbing, no swivel hips just glided across the floor. Forty years later and I still remember!
I had some dental work done yesterday that required heavy duty pain relief last night. Strangely, watching this just made me nauseous. Not the women or the dance — which is lovely — just the motion of them.
