"On The Road Again..."


After beginning the season with a whirlwind of activities, lots of crazy days in the studio, and saying goodbye to old faces and hello to new ones, Ballet Emmanuel kicked off our 2013/14 tour season. We began our Midwest Tour last Thursday and have since been to Arkansas, Oklahoma and Kansas. We have had the great opportunity to reconnect with people as well as meet many new ones. The trip first led us to John Brown University in Arkansas where we were blessed to work with a small number of students from the Great Abandon Dance Ministry, as well as perform at the University. The college students were wonderful and very eager to learn. 


While in Arkansas we traveled just a town away to work with the Adonai Ballet Academy. The students quickly absorbed everything we had to teach which included a couple pieces of choreography and they then joined us onstage at John Brown University. Dancers from New Creation Professional Dance Company also joined us for the workshop and concert. It was wonderful to once again share the stage with these lovely dancers!  We then skipped over the border and into Oklahoma where we were graciously welcomed at First United Methodist Church. While in Woodward we tried our luck riding a golf cart and hiked to an elevation that would make a Colorado Native chuckle, but we enjoyed ourselves very much. 





We then headed to Kiowa Kansas to work with Studio Pro Dance & Fitness. The students were great and quickly picked up our choreography and joined us on stage for the concert. While at Studio Pro we were fortunate enough to get to participate in some classes (we even tried Hot Yoga!) 



As we finish out our Midwest tour we pray that God will continue to use us to bless those we meet. We greatly appreciate all your prayers and support.
