Dancing is another type of exercise. I really enjoy on this
kind of workout because you are not just doing it in order to stay fit but you
can learn also some dance steps.

From Merian Soto ...

Dear Friends,

My students will be performing Mujeres, the women's section from Historias, the 1992 collaboration with Pepon Osorio,on Fri Dec 9, at 7:30PM. It's a powerful 20 minute work you may appreciate watching.

Mujeres deals with the eugenics program sponsored by the Puerto Rican government and birth control technology research conducted by pharmaceuticals on Puerto Rican women in the 40's, 50's, & 60s. The piece utilizes documentary elements and includes excerpts of Ana Maria Gracia's documentary La Operación.

Mujeres will be presented in Endings, a concert of repertory and MFA student works (there's quite a good selection this semester) The performance is free. Mujeres is the last piece before intermission.

Let me know if you have questions.

Best,
Merian

Re: Academy of International Ballet-11th Annual Spring Recital

It's always a treat to attend this top quality ballet school's yearly dance recital. I always say...There is this superb ballet school, "Academy of International Ballet", and then there are the "others". AIB's Dance Recital showcases their students' achievements in learning the highest disciplined Vanagova method of classical ballet, as taught by AIB owners, Denis Gronostayskiy and Anastasia Babayeva, who are also graduates of the Bolshoi Ballet Academy, and soloists from the Bolshoi Ballet. What an honor to have this school in the Delaware Valley.
