		Vaslav Fomich Nijinsky (Вацлав Фомич Нижинский, Polish language: Wacław Niżyński) (March 12, 1890 – April 8, 1950) was a Polish-born Russian ballet dancer and choreographer.

		With Diaghilev's support, Nijinsky began to work as a choreographer himself, influenced by Dalcroze's eurhythmics, producing three ballets, L’Après-midi d’un Faune (The Afternoon of a Faun, with music by Claude Debussy) (1912), (1913), Till Eulenspiegel (1916) and Le Sacre du Printemps (The Rite of Spring, with music by Igor Stravinsky (1913).

		At the time, I did not have a scale to classify the laminitis syndrome, but it was quite clear to me, as it was to the several other veterinarians called in, that the problem was serious and posed a very real threat to the horse's life.
		Nijinsky was suffering from excessive rotation of the coffin bone in both front feet.
		Nijinsky II responded to Dr. Redden's treatment, and was able to stand at stud for an additional six years, enjoying a good quality life until he was euthanized due to the infirmities of old age.

	Ballet
		"Nijinsky" is the title of this "choreographic approach" to a dance phenomenon that has been part of Neumeier's life ever since the beginning of his career.
		In life, there was only one Vaslav Nijinsky, but in each Hamburg Ballet performance last week of "Nijinsky", a John Neumeier dance-drama about this unique virtuoso and choreographer, there were seven: one enmeshed in the title character's tangled relationships, six representing the roles he created that came to define his legend.
		Nijinsky, in his own works, the greatest virtuoso of his day rejected technical feats for a more stylized and coarsened approach.

	Hawk Wing Set to Soar by Nigel Pullen
		Another of this trio of Nijinsky II fillies produced by La Sevillana was her second foal The Temptress, the winner of one race in America, and later to become the granddam of Hawk Wing.
		Inbreeding to Nijinsky II has resulted in six other Group/Grade 1 winners to date, namely Bohemiath (3x3), Buzz Lightyear (4x3), Desert Sky (3x3), Explosive Burst (4x3), Final Meeting (3x3) and Veandercross (3x3); but oddly enough all of them were raced in the Southern Hemisphere.
		However, in the Woodman/Nijinsky II cross this is taken a stage further by the appearance of Tom Fool's son Buckpasser (maternal grandsire of Woodman).

		The life story of the great dancer Nijinsky has been put into a box of soapflakes and churned with a lot of soft water to produce an awful lot of suds, but nothing much actually comes out clean and bright and we are left with annoying residue.
		The film also gives us the impression that Nijinsky went crazy because of his inability to come to terms with his sexuality as well as his break with Diaghilev which are, psychologically, simply not true at all.
		Perhaps in today's world Nijinsky could be treated with Lithium or other potent drugs for bipolar abnormalities or schizophrenia, but to suggest that he went crazy because of a broken love affair is just plain silly.

	- Nijinsky film
		For the Nijinsky manuscript and his subsequent others, (including a biography on Glenn Gould, who was a class mate to Dr. Ostwald's wife Lise), Dr. Ostwald acquired a Mac, so didn't require someone to word process for him.
		I would very much want to see any contemporary of Nijinsky dance, I am sure that a very good impression of his dancing could be extrapolated from the footage, given the large critical literature available from that time.
		Other replies have discussed the Nijinsky issue, but as a parenthesis or perhaps it should be a new topic, interested parties may already know that Ida Rubinstein starred in an Italian film at the start of the Twenties entitled "La Nave", from D'Annunzio.

		The Nijinsky II strain loves to pick up Tom Fool, and the Nijinsky II/Tom Fool combination already appears in SANDPIT'S juvenile stakes winner Ashbecca and in his stakes placed two-year-old Arctic Sand.
		Another natural strain to combine with Nijinsky II is Blushing Groom, who is available through such as Mt. Livermore, Rahy, Runaway Groom, Blushing John and Arazi.
		Inbreeding to Northern Dancer has worked well when Nijinsky II is involved and this suggests Nijinsky II relatives such as The Minstrel, Far North and Storm Bird, as well as Lyphard, Danzig and Nureyev.
