"My daughter has been dancing for WBC for 5 amazing years! Every year the performances gets more magical and beautiful! Love love love WBC!!!"
"WestChester Ballet is truly wonderful ! Costumes ,sets , lighting all of high quality! The dancers from the corps to the principals are excellent! Even the younger children are very well behaved and perform well! It’s always a great experience to see the WBC performance of the “Nutcracker” !"
"Being a part of The Westchester Ballet Company for the past four years has been an extraordinary experience for my 12 year old daughter. The quality of professional instruction in ballet is unsurpassed but more importantly, being a part of this company has taught my daughter invaluable life lessons. WBC has truly helped my daughter grow in so many different ways and she has made beautiful friendships along the way. We are both very thankful for WBC."
"Performing with the Westchester Ballet Company was a formative - probably the most formative - experience in my daughters' young lives. The skills, discipline, and confidence they earned in that community - of high expectations backed by support and earnest encouragement - have served them ever since, on or off public stages. These days, as an audience member, I'm astonished by the professionalism and technical excellence of the dancers as well as the stage production, but even more by the esprit of this company and its contagious love for dance and music and humanity. This is a quality we see too rarely in performances by the "great" professional ballet companies, and may be what makes the WBC Nutcracker the best I've ever seen, by a lot."
"My daughter has been in WBC for years, many Nutcrackers, spring shows, and other performances. It has been an amazing experience for her all around. She's experienced performing in front of thousands of people on professional stages, learned how to practice and perfect choreographies and dances so that she can perform confidently, learned how to deal with temporary setbacks and failure, made enduring friendships, and much more. WBC is an organization made up of 3 equally vital parts - the artistic directors, the volunteer leadership, and the dancers (and their families) - all of whom work hard, sacrifice and enjoy the fruits of the many hours of dedication and work it takes to put on performances each year. It's a great organization and I feel lucky that our family is a part of it!"
