I’ve been supporting Ballet in the City and their wonderful program for almost a year now as a fan and was recently selected as an adult ballet ambassador! I had the opportunity to attend a few events last year but was unable to due to my own schedule but I’m so looking forward to the wonderful opportunities to come this year! I think it’s so wonderful that they are so accepting of dancers of all ages and abilities because it’s so uncommon in the ballet world! I can’t wait for all of these new experiences and friends to make in 2019!

Ive discovered this organization this year and I love to see the array of opportunities they provide for dancers! I am an adult ballet dancer who has recently been selected as an ambassador, and I am thrilled! As an adult with my love for dance, I often feel under-represented and not taken seriously. It means the world that Ballet in the City is so accepting of dancers of ALL ages! I can not wait to see what this next year holds!

Ballet in the City provides valuable educational and inspirational experiences for all dancers. My students have truly enjoyed the events and classes they have attended through Ballet in the City and look forward to more! The staff of this organization is professional and compassionate. What a fantastic representation of the arts community!

So thankful for all the wonderful opportunities you’ve created for my daughter. Ballet in the City has exposed her to new experiences that have encouraged her to follow her dreams. For that, my wife and I are forever grateful for your organization.

After they announced their ambassadors, I saw all sorts of people say what a privilege and honor it was... yet not one person said they weren’t selected. I had an inkling that they just accepted everyone who applied. And why not? Ambassadors are required to fundraise at least $150 each for the brand. The more ambassadors, the more money. I tested my theory by telling them I wasn’t selected.... their response? “We don’t know what happened. We accepted you, check your junk mail!” Only problem? I never applied! So sorry to all of you who thought you were “selected” and given the “honor”.... you weren’t.

Ballet in the City provides a positive, professional, and inspiring environment for all dancers. My daughter has loved every event she has attended and looks forward to more! I have seen her grow as not only a dancer through this organization, but also a person. The experiences she has had and the people she has met through Ballet in the City she will cherish forever.
