Support Gabriel's Professional Dance Future!

To all who have watched Gabriel dance his heart out over the years - THANK YOU!

To the little boy who told me "mama, when I dance, I disappear and become music" - I am so very proud of you.

Gabriel is on the way to making his dream of a career in professional dance a reality. We have two proud announcements to make and one request for support.

1) Gabriel has signed a contract with the Eugene Ballet Company as an aspirant! He is one of the youngest dancers ever selected to be part of the company. Next year he will dancing for EBC while also pursuing his BFA in dance at the University of Oregon.

2) Gabriel has been accepted into Oregon Ballet Theatre's summer training program and the International Summer Dance Intensive at Arts Umbrella!

The International Summer Dance Intensive is a prestigious dance training program attended by dancers all over the world. Thousands audition and only a few are selected. Our dancing boy was one of them! He will have the opportunity to train with faculty from Julliard, NDT (Netherlands Dance Theatre) and the Royal Ballet.

These summer training opportunities, however, cost thousands of dollars in tuition, housing, airfare and food. We are asking our dance community to help support Gabriel to reach his dreams! If we all pitch in together, we can help make this happen.

Thank you for being a part of his dance family!!
