[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maryland Youth Ballet!  I never gave a thought to MYB while we were at TWSB, but now I understand the difference between a ballet school attached to a company and a youth ballet.  The only goal of a youth ballet is to help each child achieve their highest potential.  Not to subsidize the company.  Teachers go out of their way to help (preparing high achievers for competitions, assisting with videos and audition preparation for SI and college programs), plus the little kids' classes are FUN!  MYB has photos of its students who have become professionals on the wall.  Not so at TWSB and the reason is because that is not the goal of TWSB.

We’re doing the Kennedy Center Nutcracker and a large number of the girls are from MYB.  Just looking at those girls I can’t imagine the instruction is very good.  My dd is at City Dance and an average dancer but dances rings around the MYB girls.  However I know they also have their own Nutcracker so maybe the better dancers do their Nutcracker and the low average do Kennedy Center[/quote]
