GREAT NEW LOCATION: 108 PARK STREET WEST IN DUNDAS
Some students are off for exciting summer dance adventures this summer.
Caleigh, Ailish, Emilie, Cassandra, and Alexandra are all flying south for two to three weeks this summer to train with the Ballet Nacional de Cuba. The Cuban School offers intensive training for students in the Cuban tradition. Stay cool girls!
Caleigh and Alissa will be attending the Ballet Jorgen summer training program in August at George Brown College.
We look forward to seeing everyone again in our new studio for the HCB summer camps in August and in the fall for regular classes.
Every year at this time, everyone at HCB is both excited and sad to learn that some dancers will be graduating from our school and moving on to other endeavours. This year the following students will be moving forward in their studies in dance and academics along with other adventures.
Ulana has been accepted to the Kirov Academy of Ballet in Washington, DC where she will be headed for the summer and possibly afterwards. Ulana has been with HCB since the very beginning and we are very sad to see her go, but excited at all the wonderful opportunities that lie before her!
Liam will be pursuing his dance studies at Ryerson College in the Fall. Liam had a successful year at HCB and he will be sadly missed as a partner for all those girls we have, (with so few boys!)
Victoria will be attending McMaster University in the fall. We wish her all the best in her studies!
