Story

Hello all!

Thank you to everyone that has been taking my online ballet class over the last 12 weeks. It has given me huge joy connecting with you all and I am so glad it has given some of you a form of support during this time.

In light of current circumstances and a want to do my little part I ask that if you have enjoyed my class (which has always been free) over the last 3 months that you consider a small donation to Ballet Black on my behalf.

There are so many wonderful charities and organisations supporting the anti-racism and Black Lives Matter movement but I have chosen Ballet Black as I have been witness to their constant fight and massive progress for diversity in the ballet world. 

Still the ballet world screams white middle class and is a relatively elitist industry, but some companies like Ballet Black are on the forefront, continuing to push for diversity, inclusion and outreach. 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
