Dear Parent,
Dear
Parents and Students:
It is with great joy and excitement that we invite
you to join us for our 2009/2010 season in dance. White Marsh Ballet
Academy is a professionally run dance school, preparing students for a
career in dance, if they so choose. Class emphasis is on technique and
development of performance skills. This approach, along with individual
attention, allows instructors to bring out the best in each student. We
emphasize dance as an art form and believe that through hard work and
being rewarded through achievement of goals leads to self-confidence and
enjoyment of our dancers.
With a staff that
promotes enthusiasm and care for students first, we strive to instill
the passion of dance as an art form within each student. The goal of
our teachers is to inform and inspire; creating thinking dancers and
preparing them for careers in the field of dance as well as life. WMBA
is a family-oriented school focused on communication, respect and
self-motivation. Our teaching staff consists of teachers who have all
been professional dancers and understand the training needed to
appreciate the art of dance. Our teachers also use supplemental
techniques including teaching with imagery to help our student’s master
technical skills in a fun, understandable way regardless of the age of
the child. Students participating in ballet at WMBA are trained in the
Russian method of ballet, which is commonly used in performance by
professional dance companies. Each teacher instructs according to a
specifically designed syllabus to ensure appropriate progress from one
class level to another.
Many students at WMBA
have been awarded scholarships to such well-known schools as Maryland
Youth Ballet, Point Park University, Central Pennsylvania Youth Ballet,
Ballet Theater of Maryland and many other dance schools and
organizations. White Marsh Ballet Academy students have been accepted to
The Julliard School, Washington School of Ballet, University of Maryland
College Park, University of Maryland Baltimore County, Highpoint
University, Elizabethtown College, Mercyhurst College, Peabody
Preparatory, Baltimore School for the Arts, Carver Center for the Arts
and North Carolina School for the Arts.
WMBA
holds a yearly school performance that is open to all registered
students. Additional performance opportunities are available and
encouraged through our pre-professional dance company in residence.
To experience first-hand all that WMBA has to offer, please visit the
studio during operating hours or call at 410-931-3844
We understand that
choosing a dance school for your child is a very important decision for
a parent. To that end, we hope that you will choose to entrust your
child’s dance education to our very qualified and energetic staff.
Sincerely, Sandra L. Prehoda/Shari Vazquez-WMBA DIRECTORS
