Ballet Tech

So. First, I've got to tell you how this started. I found out that there was an audition for ballet tech in my school tomorrow. Unexpectedly. We did more of stretches and warm-ups, not exactly moves because they probably didn't want us to do steps because they might get less of us because, you know, we might have not learned ballet yet. I walked from my classroom with all of my fellow students and went to the auditorium where we were having auditions. The warm-ups were pretty easy. All we had to do were like the butterfly stretch and point our toes and touch our toes. Soon as our class was going up, the ballet people told me, Kalez, Layla and Zenaida to come. She told us that we got selected to go to the program. She gave us stickers that said ballet tech and that was it.

We went to classes every Monday for 6 weeks. Then only I went for 6 more weeks because I got chosen for the 1st level. Now it's the show of the program.

Well lets say the program was this morning.

Now I'll tell you about the history of ballet tech.  It is the New York City Public School for Dance. Elliot Feld is the founder and artistic director of Ballet Tech. It is in one of the busiest and most well-known theatrical buildings in NYC. 890 Broadway is its location.

I've gotten chosen to apply for Ballet Tech school. The normal subjects are ELA, Math, Science and Social Studies. Some of the more exciting subjects are Spanish and Visual Art. There is a whole summary in the New York Times newspaper about Ballet Tech. It is called Challenging Dancers, Young and Older. Try to look up this title and learn much more about Ballet Tech.

I really hope I get in. My hopes are high and I'm very confident about getting in because my report card is always, always good. And they are depending on what my report card looks like. If you want, visit this school and maybe attend. There is a van that if you live far away from the school, it can take you home. An after school program and much, much more. Look up ballet tech to find more than I've already told you.

Thank you.
