Fini!


Wyoming Tour

At the end of April we headed out to Evanston, Wyoming for the first time. We held a Friday-Saturday workshop for people from the community as well as a concert Saturday Evening. We had wonderful students, specifically one brave 4-6 year old who got up on stage with Miss Melanie and performed all by herself. We were so proud of her!

From there we headed to Saratoga, Wyoming to work with the Platte Valley Arts Council. We had a fantastic workshop with 30 adorable students and had the biggest audience for the concert in Saratoga to date!

We ended the Wyoming Tour with a stop in Cheyenne. We held another workshop at the Cheyenne Alliance Church with some of the sweetest girls you will ever meet. Of course they performed in our "Courage" concert that evening, and did a lovely job.

Grand Junction Tour

We finished off the 2012/2013 season with a tour to Grand Junction, CO. This was our 5th time working with the wonderful people of GJ and we had a fabulous time. While there, we held dance workshops from ages 4-Adult for 3 days including bible studies, ballet class, learning choreography, Israeli dancing, and creative worship. We even had a guys hip-hop class and Miss Mia worked them hard! It was great to have 3 days to get to know our students, work on their technique, and really dive into God's word. By the end of the week, they all knew the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego very well :)  The students all performed in our last performance of "Courage" on May 31st and did a fantastic job.

Au Revoir!

Laci Landry and Mia Calabrese are retiring from Ballet Emmanuel to head off to new adventures. We have been blessed to have them as a part of this ministry and will miss them greatly! Thank you ladies for all of your tireless efforts over the last years. You are truly amazing!



Laci Landry has been with the company for 5 years and is very excited to continue her journey in pursuing a career in education as well as teaching dance locally. She will continue to work with Ballet Emmanuel as part of the administrative staff for the 2013-2014 Season. We are very excited for her and her husband as they take on new beginnings.







Mia Calabrese will be pursing a career in secondary mathematics education as well as teaching dance in the Colorado Springs area. She will continue to take class with the BE dancers and help out with volunteer opportunities whenever she can.
