What does being a dancer teach you about success in life?
Progress...
Hello Readers,
There has been much progress on the Ballet without Borders front.
Everything from letterheads designed to pointe shoes decorated!
We have our list of schools in socio-economically disadvantaged areas, we have our letters written and things are ready to move to the next phase.
If you are reading this and have any insights or connections in the Campbelltown, Busby-Miller-Liverpool area or surrounds, we would love to hear from you! Give us a call on 0410668655 or drop us a line at info@balletwithoutborders.org
On another (but still Ballet related) note, the Australian Ballet's Swan Lake was magnificent. So beautiful and the corps were just stunning. Big congratulations!

2016-The Year for Ballet
Happy New Year everyone!
We hope that everyones year is filled with peace and happiness.
I feel that 2016 is going to be a big year in Australian Ballet. Since moving to Sydney over 10 years ago, there has been a shift in the audiance and a steady increase in ballet attandance. Watching the Australian Ballet's Sleeping Beauty performance at the end of 2015, I noticed plenty of young adults in the audience which was very pleasing!
Ballet Without Borders has some big goals for 2016.
1. Increase our public profile
2. Start discussions and collaborations with areas where we feel the school would be of the most benefit to both the individual student and the community they live in
3. Collaborations
4. Increase funding
We are very excited to see what will emerge for us in 2016!
Well wishes
Katia & Team
