It’s Friday! 💃💃💃💃

When we were young, we were filled with curiosity and dreams. There were very few things that we were afraid of. If we fell from walking, we stood right up and kept trying until we got the walking right.

Don’t lose that mentality. When you fail, keep trying. At some point you will get it right, as long as you don’t give up 😊👶

Stay curious, keep trying.

Congratulations Alexandra Tomalonis on winning your Pola Nirenska Award for Lifetime Achievement!

We are grateful to have you here at Kirov and thank you so much for your hard work.

Here is the notice from Washington Performing Arts and the Pola Nirenska Award Committee

"On behalf of Washington Performing Arts and the Pola Nirenska Award Committee, we congratulate you on your nomination this year as the 2019 recipient of the Pola Nirenska Award for Lifetime Achievement which honors your service to the local dance community. As a dance writer, critic, and educator, you developed an awareness of dance for DC audiences and heighten the level of dance produced professionally."

“Life isn’t about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself “ - George Bernard Shaw

“Dancing is creating a sculpture that is only visible for a moment” - Erol Ozan
