June is always a super busy time at the academy. With exams and end of the year performances being prepared and performed. This year was certainly a special one, our eldest students of the full-time professional ballet program have graduated!

The month started out with an outstanding performance of our Gala Concert by all students of the academy at the Richmond Hill Centre for the Performing Arts. Act I featured “Paquita” danced by our graduating students, their breathtaking performance was followed by a gradation ceremony where they received their diplomas and certificates. Acts II and III featured all students of the academy in moving and inspiring dance pieces. Students demonstrated their skills in Classical Ballet, Contemporary, Character Dance, and Hip-Hop. With a sold out theatre and an excited audience,  the show was a huge success!

Final dance exams were next on the list. Our students prepared in anticipation to show off the new skills and technique they have been working on all year to family and loved ones, as well as our artistic director Ms. Victoria Mironova, the teachers and staff of the academy. Our graduating students demonstrated strong ballet technique, clean work, and performed their last exam with passion and love for the art form, what a pleasure it was to watch. Younger dancers gathered to watch the graduates and were left inspired to keep working hard and dance from the heart. Students passing their exams were awarded diplomas and certificates for their achievements and were given encouraging words from the artistic director and teachers of the academy. 

It’s been an incredibly productive and exciting year at the academy! We want to thank all students and parents who were with us this year! And of course, a big thank you to our amazing teachers for all of their hard work and dedication. Congratulations to all our students, keep shooting for the stars!
