Juliette began working with me at the start of the summer- maybe 6 classes so far. She is an effortless hard-worker, improving her turnout and hamstring flexibility considerably since starting. We are working on completing steps without cutting through, solidifying the basics and counting music. She's a joy!

M***e to Zoe as she departs for and then for the summer! I'll miss working with her every monday night but look forward to seeing her again before fall starts!

Congrats to June on choreographing her first ronde de jambe combination AND completing one year of private classes. When we started, June was completely pronated, could not do a backbend and had trouble holding retire facing the barre with two hands. No look at how she FIGHTS to hold her balance!

I wish her 'M***e' this summer at the National Ballet of Canada!

I'm a bit late on this one, but Kailey had her final performance with Portland ballet a few weeks ago, performing the lead roll of Lise in La Fille. Glad she's still in class until leaving for her first year of college in September.
