Ballet
The ballet dancers at DSK had a wonderful
year in 2009. They started off the year with
the production of “Alice in wonderland” held
at DSK. Paige Vink and Anne Oldenberg
shared the lead role of Alice and did an
excellent performance. Fun was had by all
the dancers and parents enjoyed seeing
their children performing.
In May the dancers entered the 2009 Ballet
Eisteddfod, held at the Sea Point Civic Centre.
The group dances (Age 7-8, 9- 10 and 11
– 12) all danced exceptionally well, making it
into the finals. It was the first time we had 3
groups competing in the finals which caused
great excitement. Other girls who performed
solo’s all went home with very high marks of
Honors and Distinctions.
In July we introduced the new Senior ballet
teacher, Leanne Gohse, who teaches the
girls who are in grade 7 and older. We look
forward to all her new input for the DSK Ballet
dancers.
I am so fortunate to be teaching such hard
working and talented young dancers in my
beautiful dance studio in the GLMS. I look
forward to many more successful years
together with all my dancers.
