Help Isabella Attend 5-Week Ballet Intensive

Yesterday I was brought to tears…

unexpectedly yet refreshingly, I was told, “She’s very good” by the Alex Van Alystyne-The Director of AVA Ballet, who works in collaboration with The Conservatory of Movement where Isabella attends ballet classes. I gather unbeknownst to me Mrs. Miriam Isabella’s ballet teacher her asked Alex to come into the last ten minutes of her class to observe Isabella dance. After class he motioned me to come into the office, where he looked at me straight in the eye and said, “She’s very good! You need to go! In other words you should move to Salt Lake City so Isabella can attend Ballet West. I share with him she’d be attending the 3 Week summer Intensive but she had been asked to attend the 5 week. I also had mentioned to him Isabella was given a scholarship by Ms. Evelyn Cisneros herself, who had auditioned Isabella for the summer intensives in SF at the first of the year. Upon Isabella’s acceptance letter Evelyn mentioned Isabella was a lovely dancer to watch. So long story short, I enrolled Isabella in the 3 Week Intensive because this is what I could pull off financially… thankfully to a refund check and cashing out the rest of my Tesla stocks. So, last night I email Ballet West asking if I could switch Isabella to the 5 week in place of the 3 week!?! The Director said, “Yes!” But I would need to pay the $1,900. difference. So I started to think, “If there’s a will, there’s a way!” But the truth be told, financially it’s not a realistic option! Though, in my mind I’ve been thinking, “How can assist in making this happen?!?” So, as I was scrolling through FB I got thinking, “Perhaps I can start a GoFundMe page! It’s kind of like loaves and fishes…every penny can help. As parents we want to offer the world. Isabella is one dedicated young lady.

she says, “When I dance there’s no care in the world!” Though there’s many potential professional ballerinas out there ,Miss Isabella acquires the passion and the desire to reach for the stars, therefore with a little help from my FB friends, I’m hoping Isabella’s dream and mine too can become a reality. Thank you!
