The video is a strong testament to the power that music holds and an example of how music can make one remember past times. The post also comprised the original video, that featured the same beautiful ballerina dancer sporting an all-white ensemble and performing the act. She at first couldn’t remember her steps, but as the beats tickle her ear, she reckons the music and moves her hands, seated in the wheelchair.Īs the music plays, the elderly woman is seen performing the ballerina steps with her hands, just like she used to in her youth.

Indeed, as many of you ask and realize, the images of a young Dancer that appear next to Marta's, is not her (unfortunately we have not found any video to be able to see Marta Cinta in the past), and of course not We could get them of such good quality being so old.This is the most beautiful thing you will see today.

The black and white photo accompanying the post is her in action. We apologize for our bad English, and we hope that together we can value Marta's story, since perhaps it did not have the impact it deserved, but without a doubt, it was an important part in the history of the Ballet. It does not mean that she was the first dancer of the New York Ballet, but that she was "Prima Ballerina" with her own company in New York - "Prima ballerina" (Primera Bailarina in spanish it is the same as "first dancer" in language. With her own company she was Director, Choreographer and "Prima Ballerina". We know that she was formed in the 60s and 70s in Cuba with the Nicolay Yavorsky Ballet School, from a very young age she founded her own "Rosamunda" Ballet Company and School, being better known as Marta Cinta, with her own teaching method of the same, placing great emphasis on the artistic and aesthetic value of the Ballet. Indeed, we have no information about Marta being part of the New York Ballet. After all, some of the information from the New York Ballet was told by Marta herself (possibly she collaborated with the New York Ballet at some point). Dear Alastair Macaulay, thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping us to continue discovering the story behind Marta Cinta González Saldaña, little by little we are getting more information, since at no time did we wish not to be faithful to reality.
