Parents will get to see class exercises, as well as dances from The Firebird at this in-studio performance. Young dancers will improve their technique by dancing every day and be inspired as they tell this enchanted story of a trapped princess, monsters, and a magical bird.  Please pack a bag lunch for your student.  This program incorporates experienced young dancers, and beginners, too!  It is a great chance to try ballet for the first time, or to dive deeper into this beautiful art form.
