Thank you to West Coast Dance Complex for supporting our dancers! 💜

Your generous donation of six boxes of leotards, tights, and other dance essentials, along with three individual scholarships to your one-week summer dance intensive, means so much to our youth.

We’re incredibly grateful for your generosity and for the way you pour into our dancers and their love of dance! 🩰

Coming to the California Center for the Arts, Escondido Theatre this November: El Alebrije! 🩰

El Alebrije is our annual winter ballet performance and a reimagining of The Nutcracker. It tells the story of Maria, a young girl celebrating her Quinceañera. When her father gifts her a mystical alebrije, she embarks on a magical journey across Mexico through a series of dreams, discovering her father’s love despite the distance between them.

You won’t want to miss this unforgettable youth performance! ✨
