What a wonderful year !

Since August of 2014, our studios have been busy with so many activities, classes, performanes and events. From the very tiny student to the professional company, every one has made a tremendous progress.We have expanded succesfully to give more opportunities for the youth integrating Music Education and Martial Arts to our program and, we are closing the year with the Vaganova Examinations for the students of the Professional Division, who, from now on, will have the oportunity to get a certification - level by level - of their ballet studies, recognized internationally. This will also serve them as a stepping stone to other endeavors such a their college education, job opportunities and more!Our teachers have worked the whole year with passion and with a serious commitment to get the best out of each student. We wish we could show you the wonderful improvements the children have made during the year in only one dance. But those achievement go beyond a 3 min performance. And we owe it to the wonderful specialists we have in house.

Dance is a passion! It becomes your heart and soul, the food that you eat and the air that you breath. These children are enjoying dance so much! And working for them is a true pleasure. We appreciate the involvement of the parents. The children become more diciplined and more dedicated when the parents are continuosly involved. Please, do not be shy to volunteer!

Our graduating students are being accepted in some of the most prestigious colleges in the country and their letters of acceptance mention their dance experience as one of the highlights of their application. Some of our students participated at important national competitions and were highly awarded, besides learning for the fantastic experience. And Valentina Guidi was accepted at the prestigious ballet school of Perm in Russia, being only 15 yrs of age. A great honor and accomplishment for her and our school.

Today we are celebrating the Joy of Dance! The shows have been programmed so you can enjoy every level and many beautiful dances. We say goodbye to our teachers Ms. Kaori Fukui and Mr. Jun Tanabe as they will embarque in a new experience of life: Marriage !

Now, get ready for a fun performance! Your applause will be the best award to the dancers and teachers!On behalf of our teachers and staff we wish you a wonderful summer and we look forward to continue working with your children in many years to come.
