Bayer Ballet Vaganova Center for Excellence | Breaking Through Barriers
Bayer Ballet - Vaganova Center for Excellence
Founder & Artistic Director, Inna Bayer
Mountain View, California
Dance is a universal language which unites us, as human beings. This language breaks through barriers of race, ethnicity, religion, and gender. It unifies us, at the most basic level, creating a global form of communication which brings us together.
As an immigrant and a dance educator, Bayer Ballet Founder & Artistic Director, Inna Bayer, shares her perspective on dance as an inclusive artform.
This is our moment to unite, recognizing the power of dance to transform lives, male and female, level socio-economic thresholds, and celebrate the gift of dance in our lives, and the positive impact it has on our communities.
BAYER BALLET - MISSION
We remain committed to upholding the highest standards of ballet, preserving the traditions of Vaganova through a systematic approach, based on the culture and curriculum of the Vaganova method. This foundation creates impeccable artistry and creativity, awareness, mind and body, within the dancer; thereby, allowing them to adapt to various styles and learn choreography with ease.
Our mission is to enhance the cultural well-being of our community by creating equitable accessibility to the Vaganova method of international ballet through educational and interactive events and performances, which expose and explore the intricacies of this method; thereby, providing the purest experience and insights into this artform. We strive to cultivate and foster an appreciation and love for the artform, providing opportunities for emerging artists in our community to engage, educate and collaborate with world-renowned master artists, while developing an outreach program that provides accessibility to this artform to our diverse community.
We are resilient. Our program is designed to adapt to the evolving conditions. Whether we are dancing in-studio or virtually, we are committed to delivering the highest quality education and access to world-renowned faculty and master teachers. We will rise stronger than before.
