I am aware that I have assembled a group of dancers who is not a corps de ballet. You are not a homogenious group as to your levels, experience, age, or outlook. This is our challenge. To utilize each and every one of you to your most challenging capacity and rejoice in the differences and the harmonies alike.
Monday May 19 - 5:30 - Very short barre studio D at 226 followed by Dress #2 - You will have less space, less time, and less privacy due to the younger dancers.
Tuesday, May 20 - 5:45 Class studio D - Younger dancers arrive only at 6:45. Performance #1
Wednesday, May 21 - 5:45 Class in Studio D -Younger dancers arrive only at 6:45. Performance #2
Thursday, May 22 - 5:45 Class in Studio D -Younger dancers arrive only at 6:45. Performance #3
May 25 - Memorial Dancers: Can we gather at Trinity Church at Noon where the set up will be for the event? Ask for the Great Room, Not the Sanctuary.
Then we can have a small run through in the space.
I will have your costumes assuming you placed them on their labled hangers.
Thank you
I sent individual explanation about the George Floyd Memorial on Sunday May 25. Thank you to the four dances representing us and what we can portray: Anja, Katie H, Trinity, Hope !
This is not a performance where you are admired. It is a performance to make a difference for people you will never see again.
A note about summer. New Pointe students: be sure to make your appointments with Mrs. Douglas. We will really have a great time.

In classes and variations times we will be working on pieces from our classical piece from the spring: Coppelia Act 3.
Traditionally it is referred to as a Wedding Celebration for Franz and Swanilda, but we will call it the other name: CELEBRATION OF THE HOURS. Leaving aside the grand pas, the rest is a detailed unfolding of the hours of the day from TIME and her nymphs to each part of the day. Our youngest dancers in Ballet Exploration will be dancing the magical ticking of the clock.
You would each do well to watch a version of this in your spare time. If you wish we can do group watch party at a time of your choosing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uE2fjFMag7E from 1hour19 you can enjoy the splendour of the Bolshoi Theatre, the amazing presentations by the milti-lingual narrator and peeks backstage of one of the largest theatres in the world.
