Hello everyone!  My name is Kevin and I live in good 'ol Oregon.  I'm on here for a couple reasons...i just went to the Nutcracker at the Keller auditorium and it was a very good show.  I had never been to any type of ballet prior to the Nutcracker and I really enjoyed it.  My girlfriend used to dance when she was younger but had some personal issues that stopped her from doing it.  She is so passionate about dancing...If i need to move this question somewhere else i will...but how can she get started back up again?  I bought her some dance shoes for xmas and i would love to have some knowledge about places she can go to get started again....

thanks in advance and have a great holiday season

Kevin

Hello, Kevin.
I edited your post.  We have many readers for whom English is not a native language, and out of consideration to them, I standardized your spellings.

I'm glad  you enjoyed your first Nutcracker.   For many of us, it was the introduction to ballet.  

This is a site for the audience, not dancers.  We discuss performances we've seen, the history and background of ballets, particular dancers.


If your girlfriend is looking to start taking ballet classes again, I suggest she pick up a copy of Dance Magazine and look at the ads in the back for a good studio convenient to her.  If it doesn't work out, she can find another.

I'll return your wishes for a good holiday and close this topic.
