2016 Vaganova Prix Ballet Class Maria Bulanova Aanstasia Nuykina Anastasia Smirnova Maria Petukhova

All earlier Vaganova Prix competitions were in June, but in recent years, they have been in October or November, so I must correct my ages to recognize that all students were just beginning their current year and not finishing their year, if it had been in June. So I must change years from my original wrong assumption as if it was a June vaganova Prix.
In the 2016 Vaganova Prix, round one was a ballet class given by Vaganova teacher and ex-Kirov Ballet soloist, Marina Vasilieva. This is one of the classes given.
In this class, here are some of the dancers with the numbers they are wearing in numerical order.
#41 - Anastasia Smirnova who danced principal roles at Mikhailovsky Ballet, being partnered by Leonid Sarafanov to great success. She joined Mariinsky Ballet this year.
In late 2016, Smirnova was only a 5th year student.
# 42 - Maria Bulanova, then a 7th year student and currently a Mariinsky Ballet 2nd soloist.
#46 - Svetlana Savelieva, then a 6th year student and currently dancing for Mariinsky Ballet
#48 - Nikita Boris who was training at ex- Bolshoi Ballet ballerina, Valentina Kozlova's school, winning many international competition gold medals.
#51 - Anastasia Nuykina, then a 7th year student and now a Mariinsky Ballet 2nd soloist.
#55 - Maria Petukhova, then a very talented 7th year, but with a weight disliked by Mariinsky Ballet director.
