CM Dance at YAGP Pittsburgh
Two of our amazing ballerinas competed in the Youth American Grand Prix regional competition at the Pittsburgh Playhouse.
February 9-11th, two of our CM Dance Team members competed in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania at the Youth American Grand Prix Regional competition. This is an international, ballet focused competition where dancers are not only showcasing their ability to perform classical variations such as Laurencia, Swan Lake, Le Corsaire, Sleeping Beauty, and many more, but they are also auditioning for scholarships (and in some cases potential jobs) to partnered ballet schools and companies.
Over the weekend, dancers also are able to participate in a ballet and contemporary master class, taught by globally recognized experts in each style. This is the 25th year of the competition, and Lauren and Aubrey were so grateful to be a part of it! This was Lauren's first year competing at YAGP and while Aubrey competed last year in Pittsburgh as well, this was her first time competing as a soloist.
Both came home tired, but for all the good reasons. They left their hearts on the stage as they competed in the classical and contemporary portions for their respective age levels. We are very proud of their performances and cannot wait to see what they do next.
