Thank You & Congratulations
This past weekend, we debuted “Inside the Vaganova System,” presented by the participants of Bayer Ballet’s 6-week Summer Intensive. As the 2019 Summer Intensive curtain closes, I would like to ex press my gratitude to all of the families and staff, who united to make this intensive and performance possible; thank you for your support and partnership. We are very inspired by the enthusiastic dancers, who auditioned to participate in the intensive, a wonderful composition of dancers: new participants; international students; alum, now professionally employed, who return to participate; as well as, our current students of Bayer Ballet Academy. I am very proud of our program, the quality of training and the progress of our dancers. Their technique and artistry, dedication and spirit, is remarkable. The dancers worked diligently during the course of the intensive, where they had an opportunity to train with our stellar faculty and guest master teachers, who provided the purest Vaganova training, the soul of the art and intricacies that can only be shared by such Masters. We remain thoroughly invested in giving dancers the highest quality experience; providing opportunities for them to grow and flourish in safe environments, discovering who they are and their unique gifts, while gaining life skills that will serve them in all aspects of their lives. The learning process is character-defining, shaping how they will approach the complexities of life. We take this responsibility seriously and remain committed to helping them discover their full potential. Our goal, first and foremost, is that through the process of studying an art form, such as ballet, they have acquired a set of tools that will prepare them for success, teach them how to overcome challenges and rise above, as they they find their passions and motivations to live their best lives. Thank you for supporting our mission to bring world-class performing arts and cultural experiences to the community, making the classical discipline of ballet accessible to new generations, and preserving the traditions of Vaganova. We hope you will continue to follow the progress of these dancers. Our next production will be The Snow Queen, December 13-15 at Mountain View Center for the Performing Arts. Sincerely, Inna Bayer Artistic Director Bayer Ballet
