My Nonprofit Reviews

My experience with Houston Ballet began as a young girl awed by a performance of The Nutcracker under Ben Stevenson's artistic direction. As a native Houstonian, my love of ballet has continued to grow because of Houston Ballet's fantastic, diverse and continually expanding repertoire performed by gifted dancers always pushing the envelope of what can be done. Now, as an Academy parent, I have the privilege of seeing how the skills of these dancers develop under the tireless devotion of the Academy staff. Their love of the art, dedication to sharing it with young dancers from unique and varying socioeconomic backgrounds, and encouragement to continually grow as a dancer is the foundation of this cherished, iconic Houston institution.
