Airy for a community outreach program. It was a great program for the students to see professional ballet performances. In addition to the ballet performers, our second graders were trained the day before and danced a performance for the other students.<\/p>\n<p>Before they performed, the director of the Pennsylvania Ballet approached me and asked if I was willing to come up to help demonstrate some partner moves. I told them &quot;yes&quot; and was soon called up on stage to help out one of the dancers in a few moves. The local news was there and recorded it. I spent most of the time on the stage making silly faces at the kids and wasn&#39;t the most graceful of partners, but I was able to energize the students for the rest of the performance. They seemed sincerely interested in the performances, which were great to see.<\/p>\n<p>Ballet, in particular, doesn&#39;t interest most urban youth; but this program definitely is a great way of developing more interest and awareness.<\/p>\n<p>Now&#8230; I just need to figure out some class ballet game times&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&gt;&gt; <a href=\"http:\/\/abclocal.go.com\/wpvi\/story?section=news\/local&amp;id=8554033\" target=\"_blank\">Read story on&nbsp;abclocal.go.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><object height=\"268\" id=\"otvPlayer\" width=\"400\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/cdn.abclocal.go.com\/static\/flash\/embeddedPlayer\/swf\/otvEmLoader.swf?version=&amp;station=wpvi&amp;section=&amp;mediaId=8550123&amp;cdnRoot=http:\/\/cdn.abclocal.go.com&amp;webRoot=http:\/\/abclocal.go.com&amp;configPath=\/util\/&amp;site=\" \/><param name=\"allowScriptAccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"allowNetworking\" value=\"all\" \/><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><embed allowfullscreen=\"true\" allownetworking=\"all\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" height=\"268\" id=\"otvPlayer\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.abclocal.go.com\/static\/flash\/embeddedPlayer\/swf\/otvEmLoader.swf?version=&amp;station=wpvi&amp;section=&amp;mediaId=8550123&amp;cdnRoot=http:\/\/cdn.abclocal.go.com&amp;webRoot=http:\/\/abclocal.go.com&amp;configPath=\/util\/&amp;site=\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"400\"><\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Several pre-professional members of the Pennsylvania Ballet recently visited Charles Henry School in Mt.
