cubanmiamiboy Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Lorena hasn't danced much the past few seasons, has she? I feel like she's another one, like Jaime, that we rarely see anymore. I'm 43, and Lorena is older than me. She must be on the verge of retirement. Link to post
pherank Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 I'm 43, and Lorena is older than me. She must be on the verge of retirement. Both Lorena and Yuan Yuan are taking the slow, scenic route to retirement. ;) Good for them - I would like to see a general change in the dance work environment to allow dancers to have longer careers, if they so choose. But that will necessitate less arduous schedules and shorter days for each individual dancer, and most big companies have very full, concentrated seasons that are very hard on the body.

its the mom Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Looking forward to seeing her dance. Here's a Mateer clip from YouTube for the rest of us: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IpXJ_FAaLbM Elizabeth recently posted this on Instagram. I think this is from a while back, but she is really delightful to watch. You can tell she loves what she is doing. https://www.instagram.com/p/BFrUOO-MR_6/ Link to post

PeggyTulle Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Rubén Martín Cintas is now a Principal Character dancer at SFB: https://www.sfballet.org/company/dancers/principal_character/Ruben_Martin_Cintas I thought this has been in effect since his "retirement". His bio says he's had this position since 2014. Link to post

You are probably right PeggyTulle - it's hard to know exactly when the web page was finally updated. I would love to see Pascal Molat added to this page. ;) I wonder what his plans are? Link to post
PeggyTulle Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 I think the 2015-16 apprentices were Grace Choi, Blake Kessler, Anastasia Kubanda, Chisako Oga, and Francisco Sebastião. Grace Choi is now with Tulsa Ballet II. Link to post

pherank Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 I knew it was coming, but I was thinking end of the 2017 season. Congratulations to Sasha. Link to post
