Bolshoi and Ellison Ballet: Summer 2019

"Anything is possible. Anything can be."
-- Shel Silverstein

Hi. My name is Mikaela Stewart, and I am training to be a professional ballerina.

I am seventeen years old, and have been dancing for fourteen years. I am currently training at the California Professional Ballet Program .


For the last three summers, I have been able -- with your generous help -- to study at the American Ballet Theatre in New York City. 

Here's a little video from our performance. Can you see me?


As much as I have loved my summers at ABT, this year I have decided to try something different. After much deliberation, I have decided to accept a scholarship to the Bolshoi Ballet Academy in New York, followed by a 2-week Classical Variations Intensive at Ellison Ballet .


With this fundraiser, I am hoping to raise money to help pay for the balance of my tuition, my room and board in the dorms, public transportation, and for my pointe shoes. 

As a thank you for your support, I will be offering some fun gifts. Everyone who donates will receive a postcard from New York City. I am also giving away ballet photo prints (photos by my mom!) and personalized canvas tote bags for donations $100 and over. 

I am so appreciative of your love and support. I literally couldn't do this without you. Thank you!!

XO, Mikaela
