Brooklyn Ballet Students Participate ABT Summer Program

Six talented Brooklyn Ballet students were selected for American Ballet Theatre's Young Dancer Summer Workshop, which ran from July 30th to August 10th.

The participating students were Penelope Birnbaum, Bhajhan Williams, Zoreika Ollivierre, Chantel St. Fleur, Olivia Riess, and Rachel Tranter. The classes, which were held from 9:30am to 3:30pm Monday through Friday, focused on “building a solid foundation in ballet technique and educating younger dancers about related topics in the world of dance.” On August 10th at ABT Studios in Manhattan, parents watched the students in a final show which included a ballet technique class, boys variation and choreography. 

We are very proud to see how Brooklyn Ballet students have grown with the program, made possible through our partnership with ABT. Bravo!
