Review for Houston Ballet Foundation, Houston, TX, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

The Houston Ballet's Educational Outreach Program reaches out to Browning Elementary School for two years. Students in grades K-5 who might not be exposed to dance or the ballet benefit greatly. One program a ballerina brought out costumes and played video bits from a ballet and taught the kids how to 'view' a story told through dance. Another program we have prima ballerinas, like Lauren Anderson, who come out a teach one class for ten to twelve weeks. The students learn creative movements, ballet poses, stretch and posture. Wow, Houston Ballet's generous gifts of time and talent make Browning a school where children excel.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

Teach all public school children dance, ballet, creative movement.
