The Woodlands Civic Ballet presents Fairies, Swans and Sprinkles of Magic

Isabelle and Olivia were thrilled like usual when it was time to perform in their spring ballet production. Grammie and Tara both flew in for the occasion and both girls were graceful and smiled ear to ear as they danced their practiced parts. Olivia danced as a buttercup in Cinderella and she and Annie were both promoted after the show to Intermediate Ballet in the fall. She knew the dance well and I am always proud that she can hear the music so well and dances right on the beat, even when it is a slow step which causes you to take your time. Isabelle danced as a Polish Princess in Paquita and we were so proud of her as this was her first time to dance in the Advanced Ballet class. She was the smallest in the class by a chunk and was the only 4th grader. The steps were dramatically tougher than she has danced before but she held her own and was lovely. No one would have guessed, other than her small size, that she was knew to the class. Brava girls! Brava!
