On Sunday, October 16, I was invited to photograph a private ballet session at the Canadian National Ballet School taught by the one and only Prima Balleria, Sonia Rodriguez. I was extremely impressed by the dedication and concentration of all the girls as they were being instructed by Sonia. At the end of the class, Sonia was presented with a gift from the moms and then she spent some time autographing the flats of the girls (what a treat!). It was so much fun to see the reactions of the girls as they got the opportunity to meet a real Prima Ballerina and have the chance to talk and learn from her. Sonia also presented the girls with a book that she helped to author - T is for Tutu - A Ballet Alphabet. It was also one of the girl's birthdays and nothing say birthday more than cupcakes with lots of icing! Gary
