Our Nureyev Project collaboration is built to grow. Over the coming two years, SF Ballet School will continue developing programming that builds on the foundation established this past spring, expanding its scope while welcoming new students into its orbit each year. The knowledge gained in these studios will propel these students forward, informing how they move, interpret, and ultimately carry the classical tradition into their own artistic futures.
