Youth Performing Arts School's SPRING CONCERT

Sunday night's Spring Concert is the culmination of not only Ballet Petite's recital season but also of our dancers' Ballet Petite experience. Our oldest performers across the genres perform their teachers' individual choreography at Spring Concert. Both teachers and students stretch their creativity, stretching their limits beyond the familiar pieces they have worked on in previous levels. Teachers pick their music and their themes; students work with their teachers on choreography and performance. All of this brings an incredibly complex performance on many levels, and the studio is always proud of what everyone accomplishes for this show every year. It is a chance for personality to shine through and for years of training and perseverance to pay off. It is a time for proud teachers to experience the full value of all their students have accomplished. And it is a time, most importantly, for our students to realize for themselves what kind of amazing performers they have become over the years. So let's extend a big thank you to all of our staff who have made all of our shows possible throughout the years; to all of our fabulous, hard-working teachers who have patiently worked with us; and to our brilliant, impressive, showstopping dancers who pulled tears from our eyes with every step.
