Maria's Letter

To All Academy Parents and Students,

As we look forward to 2022-23 which is BalletMet’s 45th Anniversary season, there is so much to reflect back upon as well as the excitement of what lies ahead. This has been an extra special year!  Artistic Director Edwaard Liang and Executive Director Sue Porter have supported the Academy in every endeavor. BalletMet’s Professional Company continued to amaze us and inspire our students, parents and audiences alike. Our talented and highly skilled faculty  ensured that students received the best guidance and training available and the Academy Staff dedicated themselves to be certain that everyone was cared for and in good hands.  

Many of our dancers could be seen this season performing along with the Professional Company in The Nutcracker and Cinderella. The opportunity for students to be in such close proximity to professional dancers:  observing them from the hallway, in a rehearsal or on stage is a very special experience.   

We hope this performance shows the progress your students have made this year. Together, we eagerly anticipate a wonderful year ahead – respect for what has come before and great enthusiasm for new and exciting goals and opportunities for the future. We reach out to all of you to join us again next year and experience the joys of dancing at BalletMet.                                                                                                               

Maria Torija
BalletMet Dance Academy Director
